No worries. Thanks.

I had the same issue as I'd committed my changed to git in the 7.7
branch and it increased the revision number.  I used 'bvi'
(http://bvi.sourceforge.net/) to modified the version strings in the
jive binary to match the original firmware version.

I'm still testing the 7.7 aac decoder changes on my one radio, so I
haven't explored the possible performance degradation I perceived.  But
I'd agree that the lua changes do seem unlikely to be the cause.  Or
that there is really a difference.

No. I hadn't noticed that that change was missing from the 7.8 branch. 
I've 'forked the logitech squeezeos repo'
(https://github.com/ralph-irving/squeezeos) and will merge 7.7 and
continue all further development on 7.8 as the 7.7 changes are available
in the source tarball from a few days ago and were really only to
confirm the aac changes were doable.
