Can't get past 2.1.7 update. Do I need to reinstall the plugin?
I can't update to 2.1.7. Download seems stuck in an infinite loop
where the update notice repeats after download.

I don't know whether this is an LMS or plugin issue.
Guess it's something to do with utf8 encoding?

Whatever happened to my original system, it meant I've had to completely

.so, I would like to focus on the Windows version - at the moment it's
the only one which actually produces sound. It's just that the menus
are weird. Just me? Or do others get the same issues?
I've given up on the pi 2 - too many variables for my poor old brain.

I set up another server on a win 10 laptop. CD works with one USB

CD plays with plugin to radio with sound.
So, this suggests the drive is not DOA!
Not sure how this helps with the rpi problem.
