This will not work because you need to have proper Unix- style line endings. If you cut and paste, perl will fail to handle the plugin and you won't see it. > However, after restart of slimserver the script is not > listed in the web inteface and no extra menus appear under plugins on > the SB3. So it seems it is not loading. exactly. Please use this link directly, then right click on Execute.pm and choose "Save Link As" (or whatever the equivalent IE wording is) http://code.google.com/p/kdfplugins/source/browse/tags/6.5.x/legacy/ > > > I also noticed that the scripts location appears to be hard coded as > "<slimserver directory>/scripts".

There are certainly problems with any paths that have spaces in them, so you are probably hooped on windows for 6.5.4. I won't be doing any more coding on old plugins. SC 7.0 is released now, and you'll find that the Execute Plugin for SC7.0 handles paths much better. it also expects a scripts folder in the same location where prefs are stored (c:\documents and settings \all users\application data\squezecenter... ,or wherever you find the server.prefs file.) -kdf _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
