So assembly was easy, and was simple to get the RoPieee image on the card … followed all the instructions (configured extension in Roon, enabled audio device in Roon, setup wifi, etc.).
As a test (before trying to navigate the nest of wires behind my Living Room setup) I decided to connect to a pair of PeachTree Audio M24 Speakers that I have in a guest bedroom. Powered it up and went back to my computer as I waited for the RPi to boot (which takes awhile). After awhile while still on my computer I see the endpoint show up as available audio devices and started streaming using the UI on my computer. Hooray … I hear the music!
Run into the guest bedroom to check it out and see that, while the music is playing flawlessly, the display show the following:
=======
Zone Not Found
We’re still waiting for the controlled Roon zone to appear
Is your DAC turned on?
Is the correct zone configured in RoPieee?
=======
I’m using the the following image:
ropieee_ose_pi4-2022.8.1-stable.20220814.523.bin
Any idea what’s wrong here. Was really looking forward to having the touchscreen to control roon and while I’m happy to have another endpoint I want the rest of this to work.
You did not try adding a screen after flashing your SD card did you? If you did, by chance, you have to reflash the SD card after adding the screen.
I sold my RPi4 with screen, so I can’t look at the RoPieee setup, but the naming has to be precise. I don’t remember exactly what I’m talking about here, but take a close look at your RoPieee setup.
@Jim_F, one of the changes of the new 2022 RoPieee is that detection of display occurs for example when a configuration change is made (if I recall correctly). A re-flash usually isn’t required.
So, if someone has a working RPI4 running RoPieee or RoPieeeXL and they later add a screen, are you saying they no longer need to reflash? If so, that is a change. Before, that needed a reflash.
Yes, I believe that that is correct. There are some comments about this from @spockfish in prior posts. I updated the guide accordingly earlier this year.
