Trying to upgrade from a 2021 release to the latest one, absolutely no idea whether this will work or not...

Originally I abandoned this install because the API I used to integrate a DIY addressable LED strip (controlled by a media player entity, changed colour to match the cover art) was removed and replaced with something else, and I didn't have time to redevelop it.

For a while its been possible to do something pretty similar with WLED - at that point I was just putting off the upgrades to not break anything ๐Ÿ˜…

At this point it's probably a better idea to re-install but let's see how this goes!

Do a backup first, if the update does go south the backup might apply to a new install

That's what I just did with pihole v6 lol.

Updated, internet went down and WebUI bork. Uninstalled, wiped config, reinstalled, restored backup.

Same for me but I managed to rescue the existing installation, but unfortunately my reverse proxy for the web interface doesn't work anymore.
