Caution

Do NOT use the latest RaspberryPi OS Bookworm release (also don't upgrade via apt) with the new kernel 6.6, if you need to use GPIO components . There have been incompatible changes for the RPi.GPIO library, so Buttons, Shims and Rfid Reader usage can be broken (#2295).
Using RaspberryPi OS Bullseye is the current recommendation as it does not use the new kernel.

Summary

Features

  • Support for Spotify again!
    • a prerelease of mopidy-spotify is used to bring back the spotify integration. Please see Spotify-FAQ for further information
    • this includes startup speed improvements for mopidy due to playlists refresh optimization in the prerelease
  • Raspberry Pi OS Buster and Python < 3.9 will not be supported/tested anymore with this release.
    • official Buster support is running out by June 30th, 2024
    • mopidy-spotify minimum support is Bullseye

Improvements

  • some refactorings of the installation script
  • better installation logging
  • documentation updates
  • version updates for github actions

Fixes

  • fix for special characters entered during setup (spotify credentials, wifi, ...)
  • fix for function calls from RotaryEncoder
  • update defaults and fixed handling for some yes/no questions
  • improved startup time for wifi in combination with the autohotspot feature

Note

Version 3 is becoming mature and will soon be the new default of Phoniebox. Therefore Version 2 is slowly going into a maintenance mode and no new features will be added to this version.
