I just buy a VIM3L for my Tone2 Maker Kit Card: I read in this thread that you developed a Volumio image that was working for the first versions of this SBC and that the last hardware version was making it not more compatible with them: as you seemed to be knowing the issue to work out, could we expect sometimes an update for Volumio ?
I installed Volumio flawlessly ! Thank you very much for this quick action and the wonderful result !
I am trying the software: most of the functions are working to the exception of:
I changed the english language to french and the keyboard remains set to english,
I would like to install some plugins and I cannot get access to “myvolumio” as requested by the software,
sometimes, when I click onto some part of the screen, the interface lags…
Anyway it is a wonderful start ! Thank you very much!
I booted yesterday my vim3L with Volumio and I noticed that I could not get access to my Music Library anymore: when I was trying to click on the “music library” item on the menu, I was loosing the focus of my mouse and the system was apparently blocked (not accessing to my library, but doing something else) . It seems this morning that making a factory reset was leading to a better situation, but it seems that there is something wrong with the music database save mechanism…
Moreover, I also noticed that I could not get access with OOWOW whiel rebooting my VIM3L : I tried to follow the procedure without SD (to click on the “function” button while clicking “reboot”) and with an SD with a flashed OOWOW image.
With respect to my music library, all my files are stored on a SYNOLOGY NAS and are accessible either using CIFS or NFS file system.
I first tried CIFS and I saw that Volumio was “reading” my files and displaying them on the screen (I could select some of them to play them using my Tone 2 DAC), but as soon as the gathering was “apparently” complete (with respect to the number of files), I also see that Volumio seemed not to stop the process… I left Volumio working during the whole night, but on the morning I saww that the “rolling arrow” was still moving: I stopped Volumio using the “Shutdown” option and restart it, when I come back to Volumio display, then my Music Library was no more accessible…
I also tried to get access to my NAS using NFS: here the share did not appear on Volumio screen and the VIM3L rebooted. Again no access.
For your information, I have a Raspberry 2GB that can manage my music library easily, so it is not a question of database size.
Another point: when I use Volumio directly from the VIM3L (screen connected by HDMI and a keyboard and a mouse using an USB stick), some of the icons are not displayed. This is not the case when I use a network connection (using my browser and “volumio.local” as address).
I used the last version of OOWOW that you indicated: the only way for me to get again access to OOWOW is to flash an emmc image with the USB burning tool on my VIM3L. When I do that, then the SD card is accessed again and OOWOW works again! Then I flash something (I tried VOLUMIO, but also UBUNTU) with OOWOW and I loose the SD card access and the VIM3L only boots on emmc !
Is it possible for you to share serial output with volumio flashed to emmc and trying to boot oowow from sd card. Please find instructions on accessing serial debug console here - VIM3/3L Setup Serial Debug Console [Khadas Docs]
I wish I could but unfortunately I cannot do what you are proposing… I tried an older OOWOW version with the same result (no more access to OOWOW after emmc installation): I insert my SD card and I push the F button then the reboot R one and the I release the F button, but the VIM3L boots on the emmc…
