In general stuff all over the place, so I’m pretty sure that there’s something in here you like
Not mentioned in the changelog, but this release comes with a new, completely rewritten RoPieee Roon Extension. So if you use the extension (either for the display or a remote control), keep in mind that you need to (re)authorize the extension in Roon.
I’d like to thank the people that participated in the beta testing: I’m pretty happy with how helpful this has been in making sure the release meets a certain level of quality. So thanks to everyone that participated in this beta round: I intent to keep on doing this for the next release as well.
And finally the changelog for completeness:
2024.02
NEW: (experimental) support for Spotify Autoplay
ENHANCEMENT: update Linux kernel
ENHANCEMENT: improve latency kernel (Pi4 only)
ENHANCEMENT: update Plexamp component
ENHANCEMENT: update UPnP player component
ENHANCEMENT: increase session timout on webinterface from 10 to 30 minutes
ENHANCEMENT: heavily reduced image download size, now also for the Pi3 family
FIX: UPnP play stops after a few seconds (mainly with 96k content)
I had to re-enable the extension in Roon after the update for the display/remote to work. Might look there to see if you need to also? Settings/extensions in Roon.
Hi! Sorry if this is a dumb question. I just got the Argon One V2 case and was just wondering if the matching Argon IR remote will work with the current version of ropieee. If not, what remote is supported so I can adjust the volume, play/pause, move to previous or next track?
Updated Pi3b and update appeared to work well. Problem is the official Pi display shows Connection Failure error. Music plays just fine, but no display. I tried rebooting, but same error.
Edit: After a short time the clock display pops up as if there’s no music playing.
What version does the settings/extension screen say it is running?
Also view the authorizations and see what is there.
Maybe try removing authorizations for the extension and let it refresh?
Installed on an rPi4 - DAC initially recognised
fine but continually get the “Failed to open audio device” message in Roon. When I go to configure my DAC in Roon the app freezes momentarily and then the DAC shows in the list of audio devices labelled as can’t be found - refreshing the device list doesn’t bring it back (I know I’ve explained that badly !) - I use Plexamp component too and that still works fine. Have reinstalled Roon bridge with no luck. All working fine prior to this update.
I tested with the Beta channel, but I went back to Stable. Should it see the update? Or will it not see a new update because that’s actually “stable” at this point?
Rebooted after switching to “Stable” but not seeing the update.
(No rush, I can wait until it sees it eventually, but just wondering.)
I have updated my two devices (RPi4 Player and RPi3 Display) without any problem. But now the display can not find the the Roon zone anymore.
Steps taken:
I have activated RoPieee extension in Roon; rebooted RPi3 Display; rebooted Roon Remote; restarted Roon Server on ROCK; verified zone settings in Roon
No success. Any ideas?
