Thanks Ralphy. I'm a complete "copy/paste and follow exact instructions" linux guy (with no other knowledge of linux). And I've never patched anything on my system. I assume I do the following to patch my LMS 7.8 on my vortexbox (fedora linux machine). 0. Save my original copy of ProtocolHandler.pm in case of a problem. Mine is at: /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim/Plugin/Sirius/ProtocolHandler.pm 1. download the patch file to a location on my vortexbox server. I'll use the "backup subdirectory in my file storage directory: /storage/backup 2. Log into my vortexbox with command line. I think my equivalent to opt/logitechmediaserver is: opt/vortexbox (there is no other subdirectory under "opt" and vortexbox is the "name" of my linux server. So with command line, I'd enter the following to change to the appropriate subdirectory: cd /opt/vortexbox 3. enter the following via command line: patch -p1 /storage/backup/lms-7.8-sirius-not-auth.patch 4. restart LMS. (I assume if it doesn't work, I can take the previously saved copy of ProtocolHandler.pm and copy it back over to: /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim/Plugin/Sirius/ Thanks in advance for any assistance on this. *Home:* VortexBox 4TB (2.3) > LMS 7.8 > Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Cottage:* VBA 3TB (2.3) > LMS 7.8 > Touch > Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Office:* Win7(64) > LMS 7.8 > Squeezelite *Spares:* Touch(3), Radio(3), Boom, SB3, CONTROLLER *Controllers:* iPhone4S & iPadAir2 (iPeng8 & Squeezepad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win7(64) laptop *Files:* ripping: dbpoweramp > FLAC; post-rip: mp3tag, PerfectTunes; Streaming: Spotify ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102774 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
