Hi @Matt Bartlett , just a quick question, do I have to power off poly before ejecting the SD card?

No in my experience it is not necessary. However good practise will advise on switching off before ejecting any memory device just in case it is being written to at the time. In this case if you are really unlucky you might cause corruption on the drive or card and you
could loose your data. With music on an SD card the risk is pretty small and even then you will usually have the music stored somewhere else so you can just format the card and start again.
I plug SD cards and USB memory sticks in and out of computers (and now Poly) all the time and I've never had an issue.

Thanks for the quick reply and the clarification. That is convenient.
I agree that music data is not a problem as there are backups. As long as poly/mojo is not affected, I am not worried.

Yes ..... also updated to the latest
The only thing I can think of is, this upgrade was smooth and took 1 minute, the previous one, which was when it broke, took hours and I hadn’t a clue what I was doing.
I half suspected that maybe the firmware didn’t install properly as hard to think why it works for some but not others.

With great sadness, I've decided to abandon Glider - unless there's any news of Joe? It's just become unreliable in its behaviours - pausing when I open it on my phone's screen, losing connection, and showing multiple Polys in a way that I don't really understand.

mconnect is OK, right? I think I prefer that over 8player...
