Still supported? and a network question

Postby three_jeeps » 29 Apr 2019, 21:13

I am experimenting with various players and Rune is next on the list. In looking at the release version/date, the 'stable' for download for the RPi3b+ 0.3, which uses MPD v 18.3 (interesting because v0.1 used MPD V 18.6) and the release date is 2017.

I see there are a few betas released for the RPi since then but it seems they are not 'official stable'?
MPD has had a significant upgrade with v19 (a lot of fixes) and currently in version 21.x (IIRC). So, my question is:
Is rune being actively maintained and upgraded?
If I am to take it for a test drive, what version should I try?
The UI looks a lot like the UI on Volumio, does the Rune UI show album artwork?
Is there a 'Users Manual'? I find user 'hints' sprinkled throughout the documentation but nothing specific to how to use the UI.
Will Rune connect to a 'Windows share"? e.g. A directory on a second or third disk in a w10 environment that has been shared using the native Windoz sharing. If so, where is the information on how to make this happen?
Thanks!

Thank you. I'll give it a spin.
If the version you suggested is newer, why isn't it the 'stable' download, as opposed to v0.3?
A suggestion for documentation: A publication date and successive update dates would be *real helpful* to a reader, along with what version of Rune it correlates with.

some of those volume issues may be able to be fixed by running alsamixer and setting it correctly

GL!
