Please use this topic to discuss errors, missing components or improvement suggestions during the Volumio 3 RC1 beta test phase for Odroid devices.
In this opening and first following post I will keep a list of beta versions, fixes, known problems and important updates.
Before reporting issues, please also refer to volumio-3-rc1-open-beta-testing for known general issues.
Current version
Odroid C0/C1/C1+/ C2/ C4/ N2/ N2+ and XU4
Feel free to try them, most things should work now. C4 users: please refer to the “Note on DAC Usage” in this thread
this is standard Volumio behavior at the moment, this is an issue on x86 as well. Makes log analysis not easier
I’ll look into the indexing problems, we seem to have general issues with MPD, so this may be related.
Added USB wifi dongle to get rid of hostapd rubbish in system log. mpd service running ok.

System log looks as though mpd is scanning ok, but no tracks appearing indexed.
Indexing fine now thank you. Music library in UI disappears & returns occasionally (I’ve seen someone else report this in one of the other beta tests).
hostapd & BT complaints no longer present in log.
Edit: Music library in UI is (possibly) stable … only saw the changes a couple of times in the first period after updating.
3.101 will be announced today for RPi, x86 and Tinkerboard.
However, I have not done any alpha testing yet on Odroid devices since 3.066
Perhaps there is time next week, but no promises.
