Moode Player Help

[TimCurtis]

Hi,

Working on a new audio-centric distro "MoodeOS" based on J-Lite :-)

Great audio, high performance, security, minimal footprint supporting the entire family of Raspberry Pi boards from Pi-Zero to the newest Pi-3, and since this is being designed and built from scratch, there is an opportunity to include some new audio capabilities for example Squeezelite renderer.

Input welcome!

Regards,
Tim

Sounds really interesting Tim.

A wish list

RAMPLAY would be really great if it can be done.

Also an android Control point would be useful.

Great work

What I miss the most is an android app instead of the browser dashboard, as the now playing screen puts the album art in last place. Not so pretty to my eyes but not that really important aswell. Sound quality and performance are they key factors for everyone I think..

There's a quite a range of MPD clients for Android (and pretty much every other platform), just take your pick.

Only to suggest that you consider contacting Dan (aka Fourdee) over at DietPi and see if his platform could work for you. He seems to be at least as active, engaged and 'customer' focused as you Tim, and I think you guys could make quite a special team.

How on Earth I didn't thought of that?? Currently trying MPDroid, seems ok, do you recommend any other one above this one? Cheers for the suggestion!!

Hi Mark,

I'm not really in need of an OS-centric audio platform for Moode, just a simple compact Linux thats stable, trouble free and "no-ssh" for mainstream users, but still made in a way that allows advanced users to experiment on a well crafted distro.

The current OS underneath Moode has required very little maintenance and troubleshooting thus allowing me to focus on software development, but it needs attention. New moodeOS has to meet same requirement of very low maintenance. Moode releases will continue to be embedded system, image-only.

Achievable :-)

Hi Tim,

I'm not sure why I can't get my RP2 to boot with Moode 2.5 (or even the older 2.0 version)

Same SD card, reformatted, flashed with PiCore Player image - it boots in no time, up and running fine.
But not with Moode's.

Any idea why mine did not turn out Ok?

Hi Abe,

In my experience, only a corrupt SD card or Moode image toucan cause no-boot. Recommend verifying the MD5 or SHA checksum of the zip download.
