Just got the Digione too and was about to ask the same question!

Thnx in advance Frank!

Yes.

Just ssh in to Pi (root & rune)

Run rank mirrors to get best speed.

wget -qN --show-progress https://github.com/rern/RuneAudio/raw/master/rankmirrors/rankmirrors.sh -P /usr/local/bin; chmod +x /usr/local/bin/rankmirrors.sh; rankmirrors.sh

See https://github.com/rern/RuneAudio/tree/master/rankmirrors

Update kernel only - most important step.

pacman -Sy linux --force --noconfirm

poweroff

After update kernel, you need to select card by editing config.txt like

dtoverlay=allo-digione

I put sdcard to cardreader to edit from Windows

Restarting Pi, select snd-digione via mpd menu, you’re done ✅.

Warning: you may get unresponsive, frozen or 404 error sometimes, but it works!
This modding, of course, in case you are insane need for your digione card to work with your pi + runeaudio combo. Otherwise just wait until author Frank to issue new version.

s.k.

Hi thanhvo31 & Thanks for your support
Although I don’t have the DigiOne (I have the Digi+ pro) I tried to update the kernel according to your instructions, over a clean installation of Frank,s version (RuneAudio_rpi2_rp3_0.4-beta_20170229_2GB) .
The command

pacman -Sy linux —force —noconfirm

gave back

error: target not found: —force
error: target not found: —noconfirm

Any clue?

My wrong typing

it should be

pacman -Sy linux --force --noconfirm

Hi s.k.,

This is an answer to your question posted here: #502523

Step by step instructions for upgrading the Arch7h 0.4 kernel for Pi 2B/3B

Updating the kernel can be easy if everything goes OK. But is extremely time consuming if anything goes wrong. Every couple of days a new kernel version is released and these new versions can introduce new problems. You will need to solve these problems yourself, this method has only been tested up to Linux version 4.9.70-1-ARCH.

1. Unless explicitly stated, all commands below are carried out from the command line interface via SSH.
You should check the Linux version and the hardware type before you start with the commands:

uname -r
redis-cli get hwplatformid

This upgrade will only work on a Linux version higher than 4.9.30-1-ARCH and the response from redis-cli must be "08"! Please double check the redis-cli response and version.
If you get a "02" response from redis-cli please look here: #371175
If you get a lower Linux version togeter with a "08" response from redis-cli please look here: #502522
If you get any other response from redis-cli (for example "--") the you have probably already updated a kernel older than 4.9.30-1-ARCH, safest way forward is to reinstall your image.

2. Make a backup copy of your Micro-SD card.

3. Resize the Micro-SD card partition, see here: http://www.runeaudio.com/documentation/troubleshooting/extend-partition-sd/

4. If the option is available, carry out a git pull from the Rune UI /dev menu or use the this:

cd /srv/http/
git pull
git checkout 0.4b

5. Use Rern’s rank mirrors (thanks Rern):

wget -qN --show-progress https://github.com/rern/RuneAudio/raw/master/rankmirrors/rankmirrors.sh -P /usr/local/bin; chmod +x /usr/local/bin/rankmirrors.sh; rankmirrors.sh

6. Then update the kernel:

pacman -Syy --force raspberrypi-firmware raspberrypi-bootloader linux-raspberrypi linux-firmware cifs-utils

7. Get the kernel version:

pacman -Q linux-raspberrypi

Alternatively use this after a reboot:

uname -r

8. Modify kernel name with the command:

redis-cli set kernel "Linux runeaudio 4.9.??-1-ARCH"

Change the “??” to the correct version.

9. Optional step (but essential if you intend to distribute your modified image to others). To make the image persistently identifiable to differentiatie it from the original version edit “/srv/http/db/redis_datastore_setup”, modify the two lines which contain the Lunix version (find the line by searching for “ redis->set('kernel', ”) and modify the two lines which contain the build version (find the line by searching for “$redis->set('buildversion', ”). You can put your own name/initials in the buildversion in place of the “alpha” or “beta” (do not use spaces, special characters, etc.).

nano /srv/http/db/redis_datastore_setup

To finish this off get the current values of the variables with:

redis-cli get kernel
redis-cli get buildversion

And the change them with:

redis-cli set kernel <newvalue1>
redis-cli set buildversion <newvalue2>

<newvalue1> and <newvalue 2> must be the same as you used when changing “/srv/http/db/redis_datastore_setup”.

10. Fix problem “seeking in .wav and .aif files”:

pacman -S libsndfile

11. Fix the KRACK WPA2 bug:

pacman -S --force openssl pacman wpa_supplicant

12. Shutdown via the UI, power off (unplug it) and restart.

13. Run the following two commands:

php -f /srv/http/db/redis_datastore_setup check
php -f /var/www/command/refresh_nics

If any gives an error refering to "libreadline" then you will probably need to update the shared library libreadline.

A. Only if you have relevant errors update libreadline with the command:

pacman -Sy readline

B. Shutdown via the UI, power off (unplug it) and restart.

C. If you upgraded the libreadline library you need to test it again with the following two commands:

php -f /srv/http/db/redis_datastore_setup check
php -f /var/www/command/refresh_nics

If any gives an error then you will need to update the symbolic links pointing to the shared library libreadline. Do this with the commands:

ln -s /usr/lib/libncursesw.so.6 /usr/lib/libncursesw.so.5
ln -s /usr/lib/libreadline.so.7 /usr/lib/libreadline.so.6

Any errors from these commands are OK. You may need to modify these commands to match the latest version of the libreadline library. Test again with the two php commands above. These commands must complete without errors.

14. This image uses an internal table to assign the sound cards via the UI. There is a good chance that some of the newer cards are missing. You will need to add them yourself, I think the table is “/srv/http/db/redis_acards_details”. I do not know how to add new card details, but I expect that you can use a workaround by adding the correct overlay descriptor to the “/boot/config.ini”. The soundcard overlay options for 4.9.70-1-ARCH are:

# Uncomment one of these lines to enable an audio DAC/DIGI interface overlay
# Parameters may be needed, see /boot/overlays/README
#dtoverlay=akkordion-iqdacplus
#dtoverlay=allo-boss-dac-pcm512x-audio
#dtoverlay=allo-digione
#dtoverlay=allo-piano-dac-pcm512x-audio
#dtoverlay=allo-piano-dac-plus-pcm512x-audio
#dtoverlay=audioinjector-addons
#dtoverlay=audioinjector-wm8731-audio
#dtoverlay=dionaudio-loco
#dtoverlay=dionaudio-loco-v2
#dtoverlay=fe-pi-audio
#dtoverlay=googlevoicehat-soundcard
#dtoverlay=hifiberry-amp
#dtoverlay=hifiberry-dac
#dtoverlay=hifiberry-dacplus
#dtoverlay=hifiberry-digi
#dtoverlay=hifiberry-digi-pro
#dtoverlay=iqaudio-dac
#dtoverlay=iqaudio-dacplus
#dtoverlay=iqaudio-digi-wm8804-audio
#dtoverlay=justboom-dac
#dtoverlay=justboom-digi
#dtoverlay=pisound
#dtoverlay=raspidac3
#dtoverlay=rpi-dac
#dtoverlay=rra-digidac1-wm8741-audio

You could add all the lines to your config.ini and then uncomment the required line. Full documentation for all the overlays is available:

via SSH: “/boot/overlays/README”
via windows after flashing your SD card: “<SD drive letter>:/overlays/README”

14. If you change config.txt you should: Shutdown via the UI, power off (unplug it) and restart.

Running PI Beta 4 20170209

Help please

The problem is that the MPD playlist is showing several times more files than are actually on my USB stick and I would like to reset the list but cannot find a solution.

Solved, using PuTTY login to the PI and at the command prompt # mpc clear

Team -

Thanks for the update. I'd just got a ALLO BOSS DAC and needed support.

Working fine now!

Hi,
alsa equalizer is working?

Thanx!

avvy65

If I were to install a new image , I would then have to set everything up again. That being the case I would have to write all my settings down so to put them into the new image.

janui

Hi avvy65,
Yes, that is correct. But the backup / restore function in Rern's Addons should save and restore your database and settings, you could give it a try. If you upgrade the image as described (in this thread) here #4434368 you will not lose your settings.

Ge ,

i am starting a new project for my wife, for the next Xmas..........
1° i tryied the 0.3 and 0.4 with addons plugin......and never get upload MPD corretly when i finish , i lost the runeaudio interface on my touchscreen ( but i don't lost starting or shutdown pictures screen)
2° i make more test with the 0.4 and find problem with DLNA with airaudio app , i can connect to runeaduio but after it's connect /disconnect connect etc each 3s ! but it worked good on 0.3 when i tested.....

so i will prefect keep the 0.4 should be better for me ...... but DLNA necessary for wife, bluetooth will be the best but don't find anything correct for that !

if somebody can help me to resolve the MPD update and DLNA trouble on 0.4 should be great ... Xmas arrive fast so now need help!

i hope my english is enough understood for somebody around

tnx a lot for the great job for this nice app runeaudio !!!!!!

I've installed Rune Audio Remote for Android and I get the message: canot find my player.
After I read the documentation I understand that I must to update or modiffy some parameters from /etc/avahi/services/runeaudio.service .

I don't how to do this because when I insert sd card with Rune Audio in laptop I can't see the partition with /etc/avahi/services, only a 100mb partition.

Raspberry Pi 2, RuneAudio 0.4-beta, Android 7.

Hi ccrys,

I don't how to do this because when I insert sd card with Rune Audio in laptop I can't see the partition with /etc/avahi/services, only a 100mb partition.

The second partition is a Linux partition and not visible on Windows.

Frank

- Get access to the console:
Use SSH from your PC

If you are not familiar with SSH read this for Windows or this for Linux/MacOS
The default login for RuneAudio is "root" with the password "rune" (without quotes).

- Use sftp to access files on Rune Audio:
Get WinSCP from here and install it.
When it opens setup the following:
- Session
File Protocol: SCP
Host name: The IP address of you Raspberry Pi
User name: root
Password: rune

That's it, connect and you can transfer files just by dragging and dropping.
