RuneAudio 0.3-beta for Raspberry Pi

[elmer]

I figured out why the files weren't updating - my mpd is running as mpd, not root ... In the last couple days I used recursive SCP to the root account to transfer folders of music into the USB drive. Transferring OGG files from Linux worked; rebuilding the library reflected the updates. Transferring mp3s from Windows didn't work; both files and folders are given root ownership, not necessarily with access for other users.

Here's a file that doesn't show up:
-rwxr-x--- 1 root root 12137099 Sep 23 22:45 '/mnt/MPD/USB/music/Various Artists/Classic Rock Broadcasts and Live Recordings - 100 Classics/68. Born to Be Wild (Live).mp3'

Here's a file that shows up:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4836792 Sep 23 13:36 '/mnt/MPD/USB/music/David Bowie/Best of Bowie/Disc 1 - 1 - Space Oddity.ogg'

Then I changed the permissions a+rx for:
/mnt/MPD/USB/music/Various Artists
/mnt/MPD/USB/music/Various Artists/Classic Rock Broadcasts and Live Recordings - 100 Classics

And changed the permissions a+r for the mp3 file.

After that, the file was seen.

Lee Iacocca the CEO of an automotive company once said "In the car business, you lead, follow, or get out of the way."

I think the same is true in the audio business.

With that said if anyone is looking for a very similar sounding piece of software Arch-Linux base...Moode Audio just came out with a version that has Squeezelite, this means Spotify and all other music services are ready to go out the box. I have it up and running right now, and it sounds great. All the usual HATS etc work too.

I don't think Moode is Arch based, isn't"t it raspian Jessie lite?

Ahhhh you are right. I don't know where I got Arch Linux for Moode from.

Not that it makes a whole lot of difference but there might be pro's and con's of Debian vs. Arch.

I've played around with Jessie Lite and it seems to be pretty solid with a lot of 'working' features....also seems to be a large community base, actively being developed and pretty good support.

Another plus is BBB owners should be back in the game as I just installed the latest version of JessieLite on my BBB.

Hi Pietpata,

there are two versions TL-WN823N V1 and V2.
V1 (ID= 0bda:8178) uses the Realtek RTL8192CU chipset for which a driver is available.
V2 (ID= 2357:0109) uses the Realtek RTL8192EU chipset for which no driver is available (without compiling it).
