Quoting gdg [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I made the change but it didn't take. Do I need to reset my Squeezebox or something? you will need to restart slimserver so that the plugin is reloaded. -kdf ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Re: Any way to eliminate the now playing info scrolling across spectrum analyser?
Quoting gdg [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Tried that. Didn't work. (I opened slimserver from my computer) you need to stop slimserver, and start slimserver. Reboot the computer, if you prefer the brute force method. opening only launches the browser. JJZolx was asking if you used the slim.exe version, which is the standard when using Windows XP becuase editing code in core modules (*.pm files under c:\program files\slimserver\server\Slim) has no effect when using slim.exe. Those modules are all packaged inside slim.exe already. However, for plugins such as the visualiser, changes should work once you reboot or restart the slimserver service, so long as the changes don't actually cause an error in the plugin. -kdf ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Re: Any way to eliminate the now playing info scrolling across spectrum analyser?
Quoting gdg [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hey! I just realized I might be able to do some other stuff. tgoldstone gave me a text file with the code for PlaylistMan. I guess this should be easy to add to my plugins. Can anyone tell me how? save the file to c:\program files\slimserver\server\Plugins make sure the filename is as it was sent, in this case PlaylistMan.pm restart the slimserver service. If it was sent as an attachment, it should be ok to just do a save as. You'll want to try to avoid opening and saving, since some windows text editors can change the line endings slightly. That will cause the plugin to fail to load. -kdf ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Re: Any way to eliminate the now playing info scrolling across spectrum analyser?
Quoting gdg [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi K, While I waiting for a reply I experimented a bit and found the plugin folder for Slimserver. The file was sent to me as an attachment (File Type: txt PlaylistMan.pm.txt) I sent it to my desktop and then copied and pasted it into the Pluggin folder. It had a slightly different appearance than the other plugin text files. Will this work? as PlaylistMan.pm.txt, it will not work. filename must be PlaylistMan.pm. the .pm extension indicates the the file is a Perl Module, and this is what the server looks for when loading plugins. In regard to the different appearance, without elaboration on that, I can't really answer that. If you restart the server after naming the file properly, it should appear in the server settings-plugins. If not, then something has gone wrong, which might be related to what is causing you to see a slightly different appearance. for more info about plugins, see here: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?SlimServerPlugins -kdf ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

right click: select cut open Windows Explorer (hopefully you are familiar with this one) find c:\program files\slimserver\server\Plugins. Right click on Plugins and select paste. That should then move the file to the right place. you could also open My Computer...go to c:\program files\slimserver\server\Plugins, then drag the file from the desktop to the Plugins folder. -kdf ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Re: Any way to eliminate the now playing info scrolling across spectrum analyser?
You are being messed about by windows. The extension is hidden. Let's just delete that and start all over. go here: http://www.hergest.demon.co.uk/Music/slim/PlaylistManPlugin.htm#currentversion There is a link at the bottom for Version 1.0 download that. It will be a .zip file. You can then Extract all files... to c:\program files\slimserver\server\Plugins. -kdf ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
