Hi guys, we are sorry for the late announcement - but pCP 3.20 has been released.

KERNEL/FIRMWARE changes
  • 4.9.21 kernel
  • rpi firmware - 2017/03/31
  • config.txt changes to increase usable memory on rpi2/3 by 16M
  • config.txt changes to decrease videocore memory usage.
  • rpi Zero-W Support
  • Allo Boss and Piano-Plus Support
  • Changed 8192cu driver (same version that OSMC uses)
  • 8812au driver included


Other PCP changes

  • Squeezelite updated to v1.86-945
  • ffmpeg updated to 3.17
  • wiringpi shared libraries included by default. (Used to be static linked to squeezelite).
  • flac updated to 1.3.2
  • utf8 support for fat32 partitions
  • New card configuration system, will help with speed on squeezelite page. Also allows us to add more specific card information.
  • Set --nomysqueezebox option from web interface
  • Default LMS install is 7.9.0 released verison
  • Great updates to pCP jivelite pacakge. Made possible by mherger
  • pcp Help web site http://picoreplayer.sourceforge.net.
  • This is still a work in progress, where we can easily create web pages with HOTO's and other information. If you have something you would like included, creates a simple web page and let us know.
  • And last but not least, corrections to the inplace update process
  • Reloading the reboot page should no longer reboot your pCP device again.
  • You can now do an insitu_update and change from pcpCore to pcpAudioCore, and vise versa.


For the adventuresome 3.11 users reading this, If you do a hotfix (Near the bottom of the Main Page in Beta Mode), this will install a small fix, that will allow you to do an insitu_update to 3.20.
By my tests, if you are using a 3.11 image, when you install 3.20, you should have about 180k of disk space left on the boot partition. 99% Full. In my mind this is a bit risky, but I suppose if your card is not easily pulled, give this a try. Worse case you have to pull your card and reflash.
