I won't spend any more time checking for beta releases and reporting issues.

Thanks.
Hi Ken,


Too bad, we're gonna miss your thorough reports.
Hope you won't be able to keep this promise ;-|


Cheers,
Marius

Yes - Hi Ken

You have added valuable feedback and I truly appreciated your efforts.  Although I understand sometimes you just want to enjoy and forget about assessing.

Thanks for your help so far. :thumb:

Thanks, James & Marius... yes, I couldn't resist  8)

Chris,

Updated to latest beta build:

S2.29 2016-08-24
Build: Manic Moose
MPD: 0.19.12 NEWS
Kernel: 3.16-0.bpo.2-486
COPYRIGHT BRYSTON LTD. 2010

You are very close to the goal line on the album art issues.

I wiped all converted images and rebuilt the Bryston DB. I have album art as thumb nails and artists view (i.e. 250 and 44 versions), with one exception: any album that is split into multiple discs does not show the thumb image for the follow-on discs (e.g. AlbumName [Disc 2] or AlbumName [Disc 3]).

See attached screenshot for clarification:

UPDATE: I've noticed that adding new music and updating normally recreates a lot of missing album art. If I SSH into the device and manually remove all of the converted thumbnails, then reset the Bryston DB and let it rebuild... I then see all of the artwork (except for the issue noted above).

Hey Ken,

Do you have each cd in its own folder or both cds in one folder?

I'd have to guess he has them in the same folder. I have a number of multi-disc albums and when I rip them I do so to separate folders and the art is always picked up appropriately for each disc. How would the above screenshot be possible if the 2 albums were in the same folder? Wouldn't there just be a single item in Artist view or would you just simply modify the tag data to be different between the 2 discs so that they retain the slightly different album names as seen above?

One folder. Only the ALBUM tag differs. Recall that I did this specifically to work around the issue of the DISCNUMBER and DISCTOTAL tags being ignored when queuing albums for playback in Default View (i.e. intermixing discs by TRACK).

Thanks, Ken.

The latest beta FW, broke Tidal, for me. I am able to access the main Tidal page in the MM interface, but no matter which menu option I select, it returns me to the Dashboard page.

Latest BETA firmware... cannot update or run Factory Reset to a stable, released version.

S2.29 2016-09-20
Build: Manic Moose
MPD: 0.19.12 NEWS
Kernel: 3.16-0.bpo.2-486

See the attached images: regardless of whether I run a normal Update Firmware or add the #beta to the end of the URL, I get nothing in the display area. I've rebooted a few times and even ran the System / Reset To Factory function, but I am still on the BETA release and cannot see any update information.

Also, the main page always displays "BDP has no internet connection" even though the network connection to the BDP is fine (I can access the Web UI and play music via MPD) and I have a working Internet connection.

Chris,

I've placed the BDP-1 into service mode (Service ID: 38) if you want to look at it.

Thanks.

Nope - something to do with DropBox

I noted the same problem when checking updates from S2.29 2016-09-12 a day or two ago.

BDP-1, BDP-1USB and BDP-2 should be able to check for firmware again

Thanks for the ability to check for firmware again, but my window still says BDP has no internet connection, lol

BDP-Pi's should be back online as well now, any one who installed the S2.27 2016-09-20 testing build may need to be into contact with us to get the firmware to update past it.

Cheers

Is that comment only for the BDP-Pi or ALL BDPs?

That revision only exists on the BDP-Pi
