You're trying to execute the LMS server's *eject* command on Linux or
MacOS? I think you probably need a URL like
squeezeexec:secret=123456789012&p0=/usr/bin/eject or maybe just
squeezeexec:secret=123456789012&p0=eject -- including the required
"secret" argument as mentioned in 'this post'
(https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?78259-Playlist-quot-Macro-quot-URL-Commands-Maybe-Kidsplay&p=543452&viewfull=1#post543452)
and ideally setting "p0" to the full path of the eject command. I
haven't used squeezexec: in a very long time, but I would expect you
could use the LMS web "Tune in URL" to test the squeezeexec: URL.

As OPML is XML, you'd encode a URL like
"squeezeexec:secret=123456789012&p0=/usr/bin/eject" as
"squeezeexec:secret=123456789012*&amp;*p0=/usr/bin/eject".

Another thing: historically Linux distributions have used a group like
"cdrom" to limit who can use the CD/DVD drive. You might need to
permanently add the Unix user that LMS runs as to that group so that it
can eject the optical disk -- just running the eject command won't be
enough if the LMS user lacks sufficient privileges.

And the scanner bug I mentioned in 'this post'
(https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?78259-Playlist-quot-Macro-quot-URL-Commands-Maybe-Kidsplay&p=544174&viewfull=1#post544174)
might still cause problems.

I hope that helps!
