Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: CDplayer plugin
Thanks. Figured it out on my own. The device couldn't be seen in -scanbus, but could still be accessed via the plugin. Anyway, found that custom-convert.conf needed this: -I cooked_ioctl >From the command line, it was creating silent wavs. This resolved that.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Itunes Update Time Problem
Same deal here. I think it has to do with the ItunesUpdate.pl using some form of GMT instead of localtime, but I'm not sure where this should be changed in the script. Hard to test since I'd have to update both the txt file and the test copy of my iTunes library each time. vain4 wrote: > This has been going on for at least a year for me, maybe longer.
