Hi,
Click on the cover art that appears in Library panel and a menu will appear. This allows Genre, Artist, Album or entire collection to be played.
If the artist tag is populated, then in the Album column the artist name should appear. When y search simply type in the artist name.

Apple users don't have that luxury, plus with Bubble the phone or tablet become a proxy do you need it on all the time.

When using a NAS drive with moode, does it get mounted?
Nothing listed under linux command df?
I'm hopping I can use this "mounted" drive with another application.
not at home for a day or so, so can't test..
I assume there is a folder called /mnt/NAS which will have my music?
secondly want to share playlists between moode and this other app, is the location ./var/lib/mpd/playlists/ ? and how could I change this location?
I appreciate your patience with my naive questions.

I had the impression moode didn't do cover art!
my screen has genre above artists at the left, albums in the middle, tracks do the upper right, with a blank box below and below that some album info including number of tracks and running time.
and I chose an album that I know has album artwork inside the folder.
nothing showing!
mine is an entirely uncustomised install.
Hi,
Moode has long supported embedded cover art in flac,alac,mp3 formats and cover image file in the folder containing the song file. It's always worked perfectly for me and other Moode users.
If cover art not displaying for your files, check permissions.
Even if only the default cover art shows in Library panel lower right, click it.
-Tim
but there isn't any default cover art either! there is a blank space above the lower right box containing textual album info, nothing more.
strangely enough though, when I use mpdroid remotely it DOES get the default moode art -
I went looking for it in /etc/mpd.conf to no avail and wondered where mpd was getting it.

Volume resetting with airplay in 2.7
I am still getting the strange volume behaviour with airplay on Moode 2.7
It won't play any sound through airplay unless I tweak (however little) the volume control in the moode web interface. I was streaming some songs from archive.org this evening, and I got this behaviour with every song break (presumably each track opens a new stream to the macbook).
So what seems to be happening is the volume resets to 0 at the end of every airplay session, and has to be "reminded" what it needs to be.
Two questions: Is there a log setting that would help to debug this?
and How do I fix it?

Etienne, the ebay link was to share RT5370 chip adapters, not specifically +5db ones. The model I have had the most luck with is the WU735P.

Search for Comfast RT5370 +5dbi, it should bring up a bunch. I've no idea what country you are in - I buy mine direct from Comfast in China.

Tim, is this going to impact the upcoming 2.7 in-place update..?

Again, I would use the specifically-designed router to master your comms and leave the Moode player as a wifi client, but YMMV
Cool device - runs OpenWRT/DD-WRT at 300bps! With hardware NAT and all sorts of other cool stuff. And at only $15 including shipping, I must get one (or ten!). Looking at their website, they have a bunch of cool little devices.
I've been stocking up on SanDisk USB 3.0 flash drives - 32/64/128GB ones are about $11/$20/$40 direct from the SanDisk outlet on Aliexpress. I can confirm they are genuine SanDisk and run ridiculously fast writing on my MacBook.
That NAS feature would solve a bunch of issues with building a 'festival' speaker using Moode, without having to rely on the puny Wifi/BT chipset in the Pi3.
Cheers!

Will airplay support 24bit that Qobuz supports?

... but I wonder why not make the text info clickable too?
further detail: the square box where the album art should be is there in all browsers, but with dolphin the image is compressed to the left side, about a tenth of what it should be, and only that tenth is clickable.
about your sentence:
"If the artist tag is populated, then in the Album column the artist name should appear. When y search simply type in the artist name."
what about getting to the artist in the first place without scrolling 50 times?!
'when y search...' ? y = you? the same box that always says "search albums" at the top of the library page?
I notice that once an artist is selected and the albums associated with the artist are listed, that the search box acts only on that list. how is the search broadened back out again? (assuming this box is not just for albums after all!)
thanks....

Moode muting
I am at last back on the Moode train, having finally replaced my broken amp (with a Class D Audio CDA250L kit - first impressions = FANTASTIC!).
However, an old niggle has remains with Moode that was there befoe. Occasionally the musics mutes, for 5-15 seconds, then it comes back. The Moode playback screen shows the music timer happily ticking away throughout this time.
My first thought is to blame the network. During the pauses I can download webpages on my laptop but cannot access moode (e.g. if I do a Ctrl + f5 refresh). I generally play flac files made from my CDs - bit rate is typically 1.411mbps, so well within the nominal capacity of the network. I am not aware of any particularly heavy load that might be interrupting the stream. Moreover, as mentioned before, the timer in Moode carries on. So, my question is would the timer stop if there was an interruption to the stream or does it carry on regardless? Or can moode otherwise log / notify if there if the stream is interupted?
I would be grateful for any pointers - it is very frsutrating when I am in full air guiter and the music stops unexpectedly.
my setup:- NAS (ZyXEL NSA325) -> Gigabit switch (Netgear) -> homeplug 500 (Zyxel) -> Gigabit switch (Netgear) -> Pi 2 ->i2s-> DAC (Audiphonics I-Sabre i2s V2 ES9023 TCXO) ->RCA-> Amp (Class D Audio CDA250L) > Speakers (Quad 11L2).
