no active widget on MoodeAudio #2

Closed cortegedusage closed 7 years ago

cortegedusage commented 7 years ago

Hi, Thank you for your work, It is very easy to setup. But on MoodeAudio I get "No active Widget" when starting it with sudo python pydPiper.py --mpd

am I missing something?

Many thanks

That message appears when there is no widget that is currently enabled. This can sometimes happen during start-up when the song data has not been received yet though normally it clears after a few seconds once the data gets updated. If the "no active widget" message does not clear it is likely either a problem with the data collection system or the pages file has an error. Can you share your pages file?

Ok. I'll try a fresh install of Moode tomorrow with the pages_fixed.py to see what is going wrong.

Ok. Finally got around to looking at this. There is currently an inconsistency between the different music sources in regards to the two variables 'encoding' and 'stream'. I need to go through each of the services and standardize what each produces. In the mean time a quick fix for Moode is to change the conditional values in the seqPlay sequence from 'stream' to 'encoding'. I've added a pages_fixed_moode.py file to the repo that shows the changes.
