Looking at the init script egd posted gave me my clue. When I run the GUI of MIP, I'm logged in as root. So, my changes all go into /root/.MusicIP. I hacked up the squeezecenter script to start MIP headless and didnt' specify the user ID. So, when it starts, it is reading from /.MusicIP. When I log in as root, kill the MIP headless server and start it logged in as root, then SC sees my filter!!! So, on Linux, in order for changes you make in the GUI to be seen by the headless server, you must run both under the same user name. When I have time, I may give a whack at updating the Wiki with this additional information. -- maggior ------------------------------------------------------------------------ maggior's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48270 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
