Incompatibility with Moode Audio Player

[RenEH01]

Hello, thank you for this awesome software! Unfortunately, it doesn’t work with Moode audio player which is a fork of Volumio. Any idea why? I’m using the current release of Moode, 7.6.1

If you could enable the debug log, try to connect to moode, and then attach the log here I might get an idea why. In any case the WAV header option won't work with Volumio or Moode.

Question: did you enable the upnp client for mpd in the UPnP/DLNA section (follows the Renderer section) in Moode?

[RenEH01]

Hello, upnp renderer is enabled I’ve attached two pictures of the failure screen I’m receiving in Moode.

One of the screens is with the wave header enabled and the other is not. With a lot of fiddling I was able to get white noise coming from the renderer, I used directsound instead of wasapi in Kodi, but that was not the sound it should have been pushing from Kodi in windows. I was trying to stream flac audio from a video file.

[RenEH01]

Sorry, the second image is incorrect, the second image should of mentioned a curl error. I’ll try to get you the debug logs and proper error message later today.

[RenEH01]

Hello the curl error was only with the wav header enabled. So I don’t think it’s relevant in this case, however the above photos are the error message without the wav header.

Without the debug log there's not much I can say.

But if Moode is anything like Volumio then

• wav header won't work
• 24 bit will produce nothing but noise
• chunked transfer is not recommended

[RenEH01]

Thank you for your assistance. With your settings I was able to get it running with Volumio, but there was a few limitations in my set up in comparison to tuneblade, similar software but airplay. I'll open a new and different issue and try to resolve this one if we can sort out the other one.

Hello, we just installed Moode Audio Player, we get the same error when trying to stream from SWYH-rs. I attached the debug log log.txt .

It looks like your Moode player is not configured for OpenHome Transport (the default for Volumio) but only for AV Transport, so swyh-rs falls back to using AV Transport, but Moode responds with an internal server error 500 when setting the AV Transport URI :

I Have not yet used Moode, but might switch to it and ditch Volumio (as Volumio 3 seems to have serious problems while Volumio 2 is rock solid).

Do you have the possibility to configure OpenHome transport in Moode? If swyh-rs finds both transports it will always use OpenHome, and if you're lucky it will work. Both Volumio and Moode use upmpdcli as an upnp/dlna front-end for mpd,

And perhaps Moode has an error log that you can check?

[dheijl]

Would you be able to test with the latest 1.3.22 release? The DIDL-Lite for AV transport streamers was broken since 1.3.20 (it was OK for Openhome transport streamers).

[JWolvers]

I will test today or tomorrow.

[dheijl]

I have now tested with Moode 8.02.

I can confirm that it works without any problem if:

• you configure the UPNP client for MPD as Openhome renderer (in Edit UPNP Config)
• and use the WAV header option.

The new 1.4 release works with Moode without problems with the new flac support.
