To also take into account the standby consumption of Volumio audio players and the effect of power consumption at times when it is not necessary and precipitation on our climate, it is wise to anticipate this with an autostart function in the volumio system options that offers every user this option.
This is also a great advantage for people who use home automation products.

Yes .’ but it’s enable it seems. The author @thomas.doerr needs to rework on it 
Hi @doerr
Can you make “auto start” work again???
Many thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Arie
I believe the “Inactive” is only cosmetic.
Autostart is working:
info: CoreCommandRouter::volumioGetQueue
info: CoreStateMachine::getQueue
info: CorePlayQueue::getQueue
info: AutoStart - start playing
info: AutoStart - start playing with no specific position
info: CoreCommandRouter::volumioPlay
please run this command from a shell (Copy complete block), it will add the missing part:
echo -e ";\nAutoStart.prototype.onInstall = function () {\n var self = this;\n};\n\nAutoStart.prototype.onUninstall = function () {\n var self = this;\n};" >> /data/plugins/system_controller/autostart/index.js && volumio vrestart
Hi all,
the “inactive” was kind of a cosmetic problem. My radios were working fine since October and since I do not use the UI very often, I did not notice that active / inactive problem.
Would you please check the version 3.0.4 which is avaliable when you enable Plugins Test Mode under /dev.
Thanks and have a nice weekend,
Thomas

Hi Thomas – I wanted to thank you for your efforts in getting AutoStart updated and working properly. I installed version 3.0.4 in plugin test mode, and it is working perfectly well for me (including the “Active” status display). Much appreciated!
