1) what profile name should I put?
Name the profile(s) whatever you want. I have 2 - named "Poly Home" and "Poly Mobile"

2) What hostname or IP should I put?
Put in Poly's IP address. When at home my router assigns Poly a fixed IP. Out and about my phone (using its own hotspot) assigns it a different (fixed) one. Then its a simple matter to switch between the 2 profiles depending on usage.

3) is port 6600?
Port 6600 is the standard comms port that MALP uses to communicate to Poly. Leave it as is. No password.

4) Enable streaming?
Nope

5) Enable prefer http cover files?
Nope

Save the profile - MALP should now connect and display Music Library of SD files. Unfortunately right now there is a bug in Poly so it won't display MP3 or DSD files in the library (FLACs show up fine). They will still play ok but you'll have to navigate to them using File browsing in MALP.
One immediate benefit you might notice - true gapless playback of SD files! It's the only way I know
right now.

Thanks so much for the reply! I will try it. Thanks!

Please please @Matt Bartlett @Mojo ideas as the Android version of GoFigure is only being fully developed now, on this version can you please give the list of playlists it's own separate page to the Music Player - it's going to get so unnecessarily fiddly scrolling through hundreds of playlists in the small space currently given - plus danger of inadvertently hitting a playback control.
It'd be a pretty simple change and will make usage so much better. Thanks.

If you have a micro-SD card in the Poly containing music, can you control it's playing via Bluetooth? That is, without connected to a wifi network (including hotspots), can I use M.A.L.P in Android to browse for and play bit-perfect songs?

I'm not interested in streaming via Bluetooth as it degrades quality. However, using BT as a mere controller would be fantastic.

Bluetooth control without WiFi - that is the promise of the forthcoming GoFigure app - caveat, it will be playback control of MPD playlists as opposed to accessing the MPD library directly. MPD playlists can (thankfully, easily) be made and saved directly to the SD card from within MALP.

My replacement Poly is to be delivered today, hopefully it resolves the turn on issue and does not introduce new ones. Other than the delayed turn on (1 to 10 minutes depending on temperature) my poly has been working flawlessly including a change to a new iPhone from Android. Perhaps the GoFigure app will come out before it's delivered....

Roon worked fine on my old Poly but I have yet to get it to work on my new one. I can see Poly in Roon as an enabled and configured endpoint and I have selected Roon in the pinned Ply configuration. Roon on the iPhone immediately stops play and reports too many network errors have forced shut down of play. I haven't taken the time to sort this out because seeing the manual for GoFigure made me decide to put away the pin and wait for the app before I dive into the Roon issue. Don't expect everything with your new poly to be fun and skittles. Glider on WI-Fi and hotspot works fine so that's all I need.

Just on the off chance - try changing your WiFi channel - here’s how you would do it on my particular router.

Thanks for that. I'll give it a try but I think I have some sort of configuration error which I need to check out. I doubt that it's my wi-fi for several reasons. Roon worked fine on Poly before it was replaced. Secondly, I am fortunate in having very little interference. I live in a rural area and can only see a faint signal from my closest neighbor on some days. There is always the possibility, however, that I have internal interference from some other device on the 2GHz channel. For example I have just replaced my TV with one that had wireless. No harm in changing channels. Will report back on success, although not for a while, I am going to wait for GoFigure. The manual for it looks good. Nice job Chord! Now for the actual app.

My wife’s replacement poly arrived and all is well.

I had severe power on issues with my original Poly. This was all instantly cured about a month ago when I got my replacement Poly. BUT for the last 2 days it has now also had power up issues. Charged with my approve charger over night just in case, got in the train to work this morning and nothing. Hoping that’s is a one off and will try again tonight/tomorrow.

I think all of us are on an emotional roller coaster with this little device, please keep us up to date on your experience.

Please check that both the P status and M Status lights come on white when the charger is connected. If not unplug and replug the charger. My guess is that the charging didn't start, so even though it has been on all night nothing actually happened.

I have to admit, after the long wait, seeing the GoFigure manual posted has got me quite anxious again. JUST RELEASE IT!

+1 AND IM NOT EVEN AN IOS USER!! I just want confirmation that it will work as we've been led to believe and I'll be able to breathe easy. This whole wait is agonising!
