Release 2025.04

Yeah,

This is a known issue and a result of the rewrite of the screen software.
I need to look into this: it’s not as trivial as might be suspected :wink:

But is has high prio: you’re not the only one with this issue, so stay tuned.

Thanks

Good evening everyone,
I was able to get the Touch Display 2 running now. The problem seems to be the HAT driver for my Hifiberry DAC2 Pro. I‘ve tested a bunch of other drivers and with „Justboom Amp HAT / DAC HAT“ it works :grinning:

Best Regards
Frank

Will the next release allow the red and green LED’s to be turned off as before? Bright LEDs can be annoying in a dark listening room. Also, previously the “Green LED” in advanced settings controlled both. It might be nice if there was a separate switch for each one, but the key is to be able to turn off both.

Whoa, I edited that Trading Places album! Enjoy!

Also, I came here because the red LED is now illuminated on my two pi’s. Comforting to see that others are experiencing this, too.

Hi Harry

I just upgraded my office DAC (Pi3, Allo Boss DAC, original RPi touchscreen) from 2025.02 to 2025.04
For no particular reason, it was all working fine. I just couldn’t help myself :slight_smile:

Has the TP-Link Archer T2U stopped working again?
I can complete the upgrade if I reboot with a wired LAN connection. But afterwards there is no sign of this USB WiFi in Network/Wireless settings any more… only “On-Board WiFi”.

This happened some versions ago and you did a driver update (or something) that fixed it.
Anything I can do to help fix?

Thanks

UPDATE: For anyone else that might be having this trouble… I just switched to a RALINK MT7601 based adapter and so at least this node is working again.
The RALINK adapters are widely available and pretty cheap. Just means it is now on slower 2.4GHz rather than the 5GHz WiFi that the TP-Link adapter used before… but still more than enough bandwidth for a Roon endpoint.
I will be happy to try switching back to the TP-Link if/when there is an update to try.

Hey @spockfish, seems like I’ve been having sleep issues which weren’t there before 2025.4 on a usb-connected dac (a kii controller). I’ve tried auto-suspend both on and off, no dice. Any idea what could be causing this ?

No. The only thing I can think of right now is the kernel, as we upgraded from 6.6 to 6.12.

But what are your ‘sleep issues’ exactly?

I suspect it’s the same drama as last time: we’ve upgraded the kernel, and as the drivers for the various Realtek drivers aren’t properly maintained this is the result.

I’ll try to dig up my collection of Realtek dongles and do some testing myself.

Thanks

The Kii system doesn’t auto-sleep anymore. No biggie, but the only change I remember making is updating Ropieee, so was wondering if I’d missed something in the release notes.

just updated a bunch of RPi3/4’s with and without displays (ver1) all good but I did notice one of my displays on RPi3 a lot of restarts and partially upside down during the u-boot parts - assume this is normal - in this case the setting in display is “rotated”

other units not visible during the update I assume are OK for now

had hoped for display info in the info tab but nothing yet :wink:

Help me out here

if there is a display attached some info about what display hardware maybe

Remote not recognised. Been on and off like this the latest months now.

Feedback sent (ca1bdd5bd6a1709d).

The extension shows up in Roon, to be enabled;
dont know if that indicates anything, but with my simple knowledge that means the remote+dongle in it self is not broken or dead…?

Thanks for any help

Thank you for the addition of Pi Display 2 - that indicator in the last release caught my attention so I bought the display, and it has been working great. This build and last - the hidden menu brightness settings are scaled oddly, like the first 10% is 100% and above 10% does nothing. It makes it difficult to precisely control, but still works.

Thanks for this great project, I have implemented it in 4 rooms now.

Forgot to mention - 8GB - Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.4
