RuneAudio Forum

I must report one bug in latest version. I use RPi 3 and latest FW. I connect RPi with HDMI to my home sound system, set WiFi, HDMI output, .. and everything work fine. But When I power off my RPi and boot it there is no sound. I must go to configuration and set Audio Output (show like HDMI out) to Analog out and then back to HDMI out then it work again.

Hi there,

Updated Rune arch7h image for Pi 2 and Pi 3 models - Linux version 4.9.63-1-ARCH

The purpose of this image is to provide a temporary solution which supports new sound cards or USB DAC’s which require a recent kernel and to fix a couple of kernel related bugs.
This image is based on the RuneAudio_rpi2_rp3_0.4-beta_20160321_2GB.img - v0.3-beta (23/03/2016), the standard image from: http://www.runeaudio.com/download/#raspberry-pi-3.
It is not the Rune 0.4 version currently being developed with many new features, see here: runeaudio-0-4-beta-for-raspberry-pi2-3-t4434.html#p19960.

The image will fit on a 4Gb Micro-SD card, the download version had been compressed with gzip.
You can download the image here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/88nzouvtt ... 3-1.img.gz
SHA256 of the gzip version is:

Code: Select all

76C17E2BCF9D3983D2617FBE8C3D3E04F5F4A5287AD23489A3A3622628F475EE

SHA256 of the unzipped image is:

Code: Select all

7813C52E7498C2B3985E2EC04F258ACED9FC9877C6C23873FAF6307FE8BCCD06

You will need to edit the config.txt file within the image to configure it. This can be done in Windows with notepad after writing the image to your Micro-SD card.

This build has been tested on Pi B2 and B3 models. There is one known bug: Spotify will not start up properly. The solution is here: spotify-on-rpi3-t6124-10.html#p24012

The Addons from Rern have been tested with this image. They all seem to work and Rern’s MPD upgrade is pre-installed. Many thanks for the fine work from Rern.

• Changes:

o To use Access Point:

SISID = RuneAudioAP
Passphrase = RuneAudio
UI connect URL (from browser): 192.168.5.1
o To disable Access Point login via SSH and execute the command:

Code: Select all

redis-cli hset AccessPoint enabled 0

For details see here: rpi-runeaudio-wifi-as-accesspoint-control-t972-10.html#p16708
• Upgraded the Arch Linux Kernel to 4.9.63-1:

o Packages raspberrypi-firmware 20171119-1 raspberrypi-bootloader 20171119-1 linux-raspberrypi 4.9.63-1 linux-firmware 20171009.bf04291-1 cifs-utils 6.7-2 installed
o Modified RuneUI to determine the hardware platform in the new way, see details below
o The irritating random left <> right channel switching bug has disappeared (this is the main reason I put this image together)
o Included the latest linux-firmware for support of normally unsupported hardware/devices (e.g. WiFi dongles)
o Supported audio cards via overlays:

 akkordion-iqdacplus
 allo-boss-dac-pcm512x-audio
 allo-digione
 allo-piano-dac-pcm512x-audio
 allo-piano-dac-plus-pcm512x-audio
 audioinjector-addons
 audioinjector-wm8731-audio
 dionaudio-loco
 dionaudio-loco-v2
 fe-pi-audio
 googlevoicehat-soundcard
 hifiberry-amp
 hifiberry-dac
 hifiberry-dacplus
 hifiberry-digi
 hifiberry-digi-pro
 iqaudio-dac
 iqaudio-dacplus
 iqaudio-digi-wm8804-audio
 justboom-dac
 justboom-digi
 pisound
 raspidac3
 rpi-dac
 rra-digidac1-wm8741-audio
 For a full list of all overlays and documentation see:

• Via SSH: /boot/overlays/README
• Via Windows after flashing your SD-Card: <drive_letter>:/overlays/README
• Fix for problem "problem seeking in .wav and .aif files" included:

o Package libsndfile 1.0.28-1 installed
• Fix for problem "libreadline.so.7" included:

o Package readline 7.0.003-1 installed
o Library conflicts fixed
• Fix for KRACK WPA2 bug included:

o Packages openssl 1.1.0.g-1 pacman 5.0.2-2.1 wpa_supplicant 1:2.6-11 installed
• Modified RuneOS and RuneUI:

o Modified redis_datastore_setup with corrected Lunux version and build version
o Modified debug_collector so that debug contains config.ini information
o Disabled git pull from the dev UI and added a warning. The new method of determining the hardware platform is not available in the standard Rune git pull repository. Git pull will install the old incorrect method which cannot correctly determine the hardware platform for this Linux version
o Modified the settings UI to disable kernel switching
o To identify this image:

 In debug: ‘Linux version 4.9.63-1-ARCH’ and ‘HW platform: RaspberryPi2 (08)’
 From SSH: ‘uname -r’ which returns ‘4.9.63-1-ARCH’ together with ‘redis-cli get hwplatformid’ which returns ‘08’
 Also from SSH: ‘redis-cli get buildversion’ which returns ‘janui-20171120’

PS If you would like a copy of my build logbook and a copy of the original & modified RuneOS and RuneUI files contact me via PM.

Hi there
Thank you very much for sharing your efforts.
I really appreciate it !
Is it possible this upgrade to be done on Frank's version (0.4-beta_20170229)?
That version has some very good additions / features.
Thanks again
Stavros

Congrats, @janui.

Hi s.k.,

The reason I did not upgrade the new v0.4 version is because of its stability. It is still fully in development and setting up and publishing an image would not really be appropriate.

As an alteratie I have posted a step by step guide for upgrading the 0.4 image. You can find it here: post23634.html#p23634

PS Thanks thanhvo31

Hi janui
Regarding Frank's version, your point make sense !
Your step by step guide looks very detailed but my skills are limited and i hesitate to try.
Anyhow thank you once again

This works without issues, you only have to do a "git pull" first.

Hi Frank
Forgive my ignorance but how i' ll do that ?
Under "runeaudio.local/dev" the git pull button is disable.

Issue with a new USB DAC
I have been using this software with a variety of USB DACs for some time. These include the FiiO E10K, Schiit Magni, and 2 junk no name DACs
Today I received the Schiit Fulla 2 (That is really it's name). I can't seem to get this to work with any of my Rune/Pi's.
Because of my previous successes, I made the assumption that all USB DACs work. It works fine in Windows. It does not ask for a driver in Windows. I did notice a difference with this DAC in that the tradename pops up in Windows. Could mean they customized something.
As you can see, Rune works with their other DAC called a Magni (no volume control)
I also have a support request with the manufacturer, but you know they are not going to know what a Raspberry Pi/Runeaudio is.
I also tried the .4 beta without success. But I really like the .4!

Thanks for any ideas
MikeC

Hi MikeC,
The manufacturer of the Schiit Fulla 2 need to tell you which version of Lunix is required to support the DAC. Without that information you could spend days experimenting and still have no success.
