Moode Audio Player for Raspberry Pi

[cmg]

Hi,

 

I'm not able to reproduce the issue on my end so no clue what to do.

I'm afraid that you have already reproduced the issue.

Although Japanese characters are corrupted, sort order in the screenshot you attached before is broken like "うu えe あa おo いi" (correct order: "あa いi うu えe おo").

 

Moode might have a bug in handling multi-byte characters.

 

Thank you.

Hi,

 

I found that removeArticles() function in /var/www/js/playerlib.js was the cause.

If a album or artist name starts with Japanese character, it is removed due to "replace(/^[^a-z0-9]*/gi, '')" method.

I don't know why this method is used, but could you replace the method to another?

Hi,

 

That regex removes all non-alphabetic chars in the string to prep it for removing the articles (a, an, the) from the beginning of the string.

 

This is so album names like "The Slip" sort into the P's instead of the T's. Same for artist names.

Hi,

 

I understand the role of the regex.

But it do collapse album/artist order when an initial character is Japanese.

So, my question is that are you planning to revise the regex to sort correctly even when Japanese characters are included?

Hi,

 

I'm not planning to add any code to support multi-language.

OK. Thank you.

I have a lcd screen. How can I get it work to show song titles and singers' names?

[Lizard_King]

I am using the steel case with my Pi and Dac + pro. I am only connect via AP mode or Ethernet. When you can expect version 3.0 to be released?

Please post screen shot of the NAS config screen in Moode

I'd highly doubt there is any public release date scheduled for 3.0 when the current release is still 2.7, you are way ahead of yourself on that.

Hi,

 

Actually, due to the significance of the new feature set, particularly the Advanced Audio Kernel, Squeezelite renderer and FIFO scheduler for MPD, I've decided to bump the version to 3.0 and currently am ahead of schedule for release :-)

So there won't be a any 2.8 nor 2.9?

 

Wow, awesome continued development of this already great application.

 

I'm also excited for the Moode Case!

[Tribon]

Didn't wrote for long time on this thread but I'm reading every post.

When we can expect moOde 3.0?

In the mean time I updated from 2.6 to 2.7. Where can I find update button? I would like to try advanced kernel discussed on previous page.

 

Good work Tim!

sorry for being lazy (i.e. apologies if one of the loads of pages in the forum has answered this before), but is their a 'tweak' for volume control I'm missing in the configure/customise? Setup is pretty simple - pi zero, pimorini phat-dac, a cheap wifi dongle (so accessing Moode in AP mode from phone). It all works great, but I need to have volume control at 100 to here it 'enough', but would like to have it louder, ergo the question:- is their a tweak...

also, is it a problem that it says "hardware volume controller is not detected"

[drmcl]

in response to myself above, looks like I fell into the trap of not the reading the small print (or just no ding enough research!!) Seeks the Pimoroni Phat-DAC has no hardware volume control so my set-up is in trouble right from the off. (so ordered an in-line voulume control from Amazon now ...kenable 3.5mm Headphone Volume Control for Audio Connections.... Eventually, I'll stick it into my car AUX and listen to stuff in the car....

[drmcl]

Sorry, back again. Looks like I have some sort of permissions issue or something with local storage. I mounted a nas drive so I could copy files to the SDCARD directory.( ultimate aim is offline listening in car). This went OK and I can browse to the local files and get them to start playing from a browser. BUT, my MPD client (BubbleUPNP), cannot find them (have Moode UPNP set up as a renderer and connecting to Moode DNLA over AP). What do I need to do to make the new files visible in Moode DNLA on the MPD client? (did a library update but made no difference)

[drmcl]

OK, apologies AGAIN, (must try harder). There is a setting to rebuild the DNLA database, after which the newly copied to local storage files and folders turn up. I really really must take the time to LOOK.

Hi,

 

Configure MPD to use Software volume control. No need for an external volume controller.

[drmcl]

Thanks Tim, I do indeed use software volume control - no choice really - but even at 100, its only 'just' loud enough. (thru simple earphones)

Very odd. Reboot and email me the following and I'll take a look.

 

1) cat /var/log/moode.log

2) amixer

3) aplay -l

Are you plugging your headphones directly into the DAC? If so, there is your problem, as that DAC does not have a headphone amp. Your DAC only supplies line level output, which needs to be amplified...

Yeah, the Pimoroni Phat-DAC only has a 3.5mm line out and no amp. I could see how this would be confused with a headphone out.

Hi Tim,

I started testing Moode a bit and just love it I am using a Rpi1 and an Rpi2 for it, but when i connect it to my HDMI audio extractor i cant seem to get any sound. In options i cant choose hdmi out as output device, so what could be my Problem?

Hi there !

Does it work with Audiophilleo USB/SPDIF converter ?

Does it support DSD 64 / 128 files playback via DoP ?

What about signal quality ?

 

Thank you in advance !!!

[Screwdriver]

Any issue with two clients attached to the same Moode? Was thinking of mirroring Moode on my TV so other could see the playlist when I have people over while still accessing with my laptop.
