* Whats has been changed in version 2.09 and higher ;
The auto update routine, completely has been redesigned. To make it run better, faster and more future save. In there several things are changed or added. Like the up-/down- graded function. ( placing a proper file, in the download share of youre QNap ). Also there now is a way, to download a specified official version, by editing .QLMS.conf where UPDATE=/NIGHTLY= can be set to ?.?.? where is should be some thing higher then 7.8.9. ( When done it will change it back to =1) The other big and important change is the Upgraded routine. IN the older version a new release was placed on top of the already installed LMS version. Now before installing the new version, it will uninstall the old version. This way a up-/down- graded works better and this way it prevents conflict and errors. There now also is away to let it check on update after a specified time while running LMS. When a update is available, it will send a messages to the messages center of QNap and stop. In .QLMS.conf just set TIMER= to something between 00:01 and 23:59. This will be the time the next check will be done. When running ./QLogitechMediaServer.sh status will then also show the time when it will do the check. With the command /QLogitechMediaServer.sh timer, you can activated it. /QLogitechMediaServer.sh timer status, will show the next time and /QLogitechMediaServer.sh stop will deactivated it. If TIMER- is set, on startup of QLogitechMediaServer, it will also activated the timer. Now included in installation is Custom.pm, to prevent that server and scanner log from LMS get to big. Also through this, only directorys are shown in LMS which could contain music files. IN the settings-page/information it will display QLMS 2.X (QNAP TurboStation). Another new option is AUDIO= in .QLMS.conf, where when you set it to 1, will uses the audio prgs included in QLogitechMediaServer file-system. On default or when AUDIO=0 / #AUDIO=, the audio prgs included in LMS are used. In .QLMS.func now also there is ARCHIVE=1, which will take care that every download and installed update, will saved in Backup . ( All the Official releases and the last 5 Nightly versions. Through this way you can do a rollback if a version is causing trouble ! New command line options for QLogitechMediaServer.sh ; clean will uninstall the installed LMS, but keep all settings. ( On ./QLogitechMediaServer.sh start/restart, it will install a new clean LMS installation !) check Will do a check on LMS if there is a update. ( Depending on how UPDATE=/NIGHTLY= are set !) upgrade Will try to do a upgrade, if a update if available. ( When LMS is running will stop it first !) rollback If ARCHIVE=1 and there are already early installed version available. Will show a menu, where you could choice a release you want to be installed. Then on next start/restart of QlogitechMediaServer this will be installed. [ New plug-in support ] Because of GoogleMusic, python has been included in the chroot file-system of QLogitechMediaServer. Also QLogitechMediaServer will be aware if its installed, and try to install the GmusicAPI, so GoogleMusic can logon and be used. There also is support for the GIT version. [ PERL check improved ] The perl check has been improved, and now checked if LMS also has support for it. All the release accepted the arm5te(ARM-x09/ARM-x19), have perl 5.24.4/5.28.3 included. Under the hood there are more minor improvements and changes. All the release are updated to the latest version and build from Debian 9 strech. QNap uses kernels from Debian, so that works great. . * * maintainer of QLogitechMediaServer, QOptware-NG and QAutoSub.
