Just checked my moode player, it say no updates available.. Is it because this new one is a beta version?

No .img downloads and no updates at present, and any future updates will probably have to be implemented via ssh.
Tim has said that the final release of Moode 4.0 should be available by the end of the month. It will have a simplified and streamlined build process. You build it by using Terminal on a Mac or Putty on Windows. Has to be built afresh, not possible to update to it.

In very brief and simple terms,
This build v update situation came about as a result of the licensing rules relating to open source Linux code.
Tim’s Moode code is dependant on additional Open source code developed by others and if Tim incorporates such code into his product he has to comply by the same strict rules.
At the point Moode version 3 was offered via a compulsary donation it is deemed to have been sold and came to the attention of others whose code was also being used but for which they receive no benefit.
It then seems Tim had to adopt an alternate development and delivery approach which complies with the open source rules. Hopefully the final product will get to the point where it can be delivered and updated as part of a normal Linux install process in the same way as open office and all other apps you can install into the base Pi Linux operating system

Ah.. Thanks for the information.
Does Tim still post here? Not seen him for a while.
Okay.. I'll reinstall it. Never done it before like this. Easy to do?
Any good sound updates?

Tim is very active on the DIYaudio forum where he is getting help with the the development and testing of Version 4.
The new version does have new functionality and a slightly different look with background options, etc
At this stage of development I would stick with the non beta version 3.x you have and await the final version. However if you have a couple of spare sd cards (and time) give the new beta version a try but if you are not comfortable with basic Linux command functions make sure you keep a copy of your current working version in case you have any problems.

I think I will. Thanks.
It sounds way too complicated to install.
Hope v4 will be easier.
