I have installed the new RuneAudio+Re1 to Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Rev 1.2 (which I have previously used for RA4b, RA5b plus your extended interfaces). I am trying to reconnect to my NAS based NFS music share using the following parameters as used in previous RA versions:

Type NFS
Name NAS_Music
IP 192.168.1.250
Share path /export/Music/iTunes/Music/
Options

However the mount does not happen with the simple error 'Mount Failed'. In previous versions if this occurred the mount settings were preserved so that the necessary corrections could be made. In this version you have to start completely from scratch again.

Any idea what I am doing wrong this time ?

Thanks

Chris

Please ignore my previous posting. I had the Share Path wrong, it should have been '/Music/iTunes/Music'. The note about the correction of such errors still stands though.

Sorry

Chris

Great work, looks awesome!

Quick question,
Took 10 hrs to build the mpd file from my nas. Afterwards I shut off the raspberry pie and the nas is gone. I copied the file into the usb but if i try to update the library on the usb it says it isnt there. What am I doing wrong?

I know this is subjective but I have been extremely pleased with Rune 0.4b on a PI 3B combined with a Topping D10 DAC.

I have no relation with PI or Topping and am simply a more than aging hardware / software developer rediscovering the joy of High Res Music (read Eagles).

For the record my main priority is sound followed by usability (which is why most of us are here I believe).

I tried Volumio and simply feel Rune 0.4b is far superior with regards to the user interface (Volumio simply felt somewhat clunky).

Likewise I tried this Rune Re1 release and simply feel Rune 0.4b is superior in a few interface areas at the moment.

Sorry if this is bad news but that is simply my view which I hope will provide useful input for future releases especially should Rune V2 emerge.

The original design and release of Rune 0.4b was superb - fantastic sound whilst keep it simple for the user by providing a slick and responsive well thought out interface.


Some hopefully helpful observations on Rune Re1:

1) The web interface of Rune 0.4b is only missing an obvious Pause Icon otherwise it simply looks and behaves better that Re1 (Web controls especially the Volume Control number update are better and Library icons with text are much more obvious).

2) Small niggle - why expand the boot partition by default on first boot - make it a /boot/xxx.txt file creation option if necessary (I actually make a separate partition for the rest of the SDcard and make it read only with my music files on).

3) Sometimes Less is More and Rune 0.4b fits this remit exactly.


Again, sorry if this is bad news but this is my view based upon trying a few different releases and intended to improve things rather than simply criticise.
