    Is anyone else having a problem with the m2p_display7_227_wps.img.zip ?

    My Pi3 (+7″screen) won’t boot with this img, though it does boot fine with 2016-05-10-raspbian-jessie-lite.zip (https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian_lite_latest) and also NOOBS_v1_9_1.zip (http://vx2-downloads.raspberrypi.org/NOOBS/images/NOOBS-2016-05-13/NOOBS_v1_9_1.zip)

    The green led flash sequence of 4 fast + 4 slow suggests a problem with start.elf?

    Have tried different SD cards, burned on different pc from different downloads.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Hi lid,
    This image is based on wheezy and not compatible with the Raspberry Pi 3. The download page states all compatibilities for the respective images. The Touchscreen image works with RPi 1+2. However, you can use all the plugins and functionalities from it with the other images.

    Thanks Heiner,

    Ah – sorry I didn’t see the Pi 1+2 bit. So I should use http://cdn.max2play.com/m2p_rpi3_default_231.img.zip ?

    Thanks

    Yes, you can currently choose between the default jessie RPi 3 image or the HiFiBerry image.

    Not sure which to use? I want to use this as a replacement for my Squeezebox sever and server to the my 4 Squeezebox Boom players.

    Which do you advise?

    Sorry for the stupid questions 🙁

    The HiFiBerry image ideal if you use a HiFiBerry sound card with your Pi. You can directly activate it and the drivers and configuration is made with one click. However, the default image can also add the HiFiBerry plugin and any other plugins. So both will do the job but without a HiFiBerry card, I would recommend the default Pi image.
