Understood, so I should go with beta version, then instal plugins by hand : touch plugin and peppymeter? I use also spotify
Thanks

Yes. And install Spotify (both if you need) from my repo, from branch modular_alsa (same for peppymeter) or you ll get no sound

Hello,
I have installed peppymeter in buster version.
Working great. Just need to install the spotify autentification page. I do not know how to do that. I have installed only spotify connect from your github.
Thanks.

  1. Yes I saw that :D. I have entered in all your folders but there are no instructions like on peppymeter with wget command.
  2. For spotify connect do I need to have installed nr 1?
    Thanks.

Even if there is no instruction, this is the same procedure.
wget the file.zip (copy the link from GitHub)
mkdir folder
miniunzip file.zip -d ./folder
cd folder
volumio plugin install

@Lintbf I moved all your posts from various threads here with a big disclaimer that this isnā€™t recommended at this stage.
It might be an option to use the discord channel for this kind of stuff until plugins are officially supported :slight_smile:

Try using the fixes from for the new ALSA configuration from

Iā€™ve only tested for a few devices, seems to work for my simple cases :wink:

Yes, someone has tried it and it works.

I have install it but when I open the plugin it says with red pls install a newer version or updated one and not settings are shown.
Thanjs

Do you have a screenshot? Maybe @Darmur can shed some light on this? He has tested this version.

Soryy, it appear in the right corner. Then it did not appear. Just no settings in plugin window.
