- next i will try a `sudo apt update` and `sudo apt upgrade` to rule out a package update causing the bug - can confirm its still working after apt upgrades ! must be the firmware :
- the gpu firmware (not sure the exact dif..) is obtained from `sudo /opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd version` and is `Oct 24 2017 .. a3d7660e6749e75e2c4ce4d377846abd3b3be283 (clean) (release) `
the new firmware says its : `754029b1cb414a17dbd786ba5bee4fc936332255` which is what i started typing into `sudo rpi-update 754029b`
now `uname -a` reads `.. 4.9.60-v7+ #1048 .. Fri Nov 3` and the player still works. `sudo /opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd version` says `Nov 3 .. 1bcf9152... (clean) (release)`
pushed forward to v 4.14.20 which failed. pushing back: did this a few times. got it working on 4.9.78 but failing on 4.9.80. looks like it might be this issue : https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=195178 - just need to figure out how to turn it off for testing
found it ! i have the lastest firmware version and by adding `audio_pwm_mode=0` to the config it now plays as before . phew what a relief !
