Just a quick update to resolve some problems. My focus from now will be  to try and finish the GUI. There's still a lot to go from that front so hopefully that can be U2.

Hi Heinrich,
Welcome to the Snakeoil community .

Updating to point releases (e.g. U1, U2, etc) is via the web browser. You can go to the forum index of this sub-forum, there is a video at the top demonstrating how this is done. Alternatively, there's a text wiki here.

This is so nice to respond to this question since i can see you made it easy enough to find that solution by myself. Thank you very much! Wanted to check out Snakeoil for quite a while now but the headless/two devices-approach is something unfamiliar...works great so to install it. Now i am going to try to make mpd working and listen to some music!

Would you please kindly tell me how to stop or even remove mympd, as it keeps the CPU busy？Thanks a lot!

0.7% is hardly busy..     More like almost nothing happening at all.
I would leave it and not worry.

The IRQ process  at 23.6% for 2hours and 26+ minutes is what worries me...

However, to kill myMPD use the PID at far left (whatever it is at the time..)
example as per your screenshot..

Thank you very  much, Bromf! BTW, how can I remove it permanently?

That may lead to breakage ??  and I would counsel to wait for  AK's reply.

However, , if you want to try and don't mind having to do a complete reinstall..??? then..
and that will remove everything associated with myMPD... and perhaps much of Snakeoil functionality !!
I have never tried it and so do not cry if it borks your install....just saying

That's a very powerful action...... let's wait for the confirmation from AK.

myMPD is a custom install at the moment. And the only way now is to manually kill it. Or you can modify the start scripts to disable starting myMPD (this will be replaced on every firmware update).

I do have a ticket allowing user to turn ON/OFF myMPD though. just havn't get to working on that yet.
