I found a workaround for the bug for anyone brave enough to mess with
the perl files of your installations.
It's only recommended if you cannot find some older nightly build or
don't want to revert to the stable 7.5.3.
On your server find the file "Cometd.pm"
- on linux "find / -name "Cometd.pm"
- on Mac: in Finder go to "/Library/PreferencePanes", right click
"Squeezebox.prefPane" and select "show package contents", then go to
"Contents/server/Slim/Web/Cometd.pm"
- on Windows: sorry I don't know
in the file find the following snippet (it's very far down):
Code:
--------------------
# Queue request results via Manager
my $clid = $request->connectionID;
$manager->queue_events( $clid, $events );
# It's possible for multiple callbacks to be triggered, for example
# a 'power' event will send both serverstatus and playerstatus data.
# To allow these to batch together, we need to use a timer to call
# deliver_events
Slim::Utils::Timers::setTimer( undef, Time::HiRes::time() + 0.2, sub {
$manager->deliver_events( [], $clid );
} );
--------------------
replace the whole snippet with the following two lines (this is the
code where it still works)
Code:
--------------------
# Deliver request results via Manager
$manager->deliver_events( $events );
--------------------
Don't upgrade anymore then (or repeat the patch until the bug report
has been closed).
