If you like to change the behavior in the iTunes Statistics Import
scanning module, you will need to change the files within the TrackStat
plugin. You probably use the latest official version of TrackStat where
the code is packaged in a *.par file which makes it a bit hard to
modify. Anyway, to make it a bit easier, a source code version of
TrackStat 2.8 is attached to this post.
The correct way to install it is:
1. Uninstall TrackStat 2.8 through Extension Downloader (if you have
installed it that way) or alternatively remove it manually if you have
downloaded the zip and unzipped it yourself.
2. Shutdown SqueezeCenter
3. Unzip the attached TrackStat-2.8 zip in the
/var/lib/squeezecenter/Plugins directory
4. Start SqueezeCenter and make sure TrackStat still works
After this you are ready to do any modifications to the files, after
you have modified something you will need to restart SqueezeCenter for
the changes to take effect.
The file you should make modifications in are:
/var/lib/squeezecenter/Plugins/TrackStat/lib/Plugins/TrackStat/iTunes/Import.pm
