The problem with Perl in socketWrapper was it simply hang. What you probably do not realize is that C-3PO could run as the plugin itself to just 'prepare' the commands that LMS will then use, replacing convert.conf and similar, but it could also perform as the transcoder itself, when settings requires some choice to be made at playtime, based on characteristics of the selected file to be played, other than file extension. Look at C_3PO.pl, that is the main in that case, using same modules used at setup time to produce a more specific command. In Windows, you could not use that as an 'executable' as you do in linux or macOs so you need to pack it in an exe. I already have revisoned sources that works in windows and linux, but I would like to produce a new .exe accordingly before distributing Is not a matter of find other executables, that's works fine, I includede Audio:scan 0.95 and few others bin because in 2012 they where not in the standard distribution, but now sure I could get rid of most of them, but i need to test, more in 2012 i had to 'invent' a way to download huge executables, now is in the standard, so i coul get rid of many parts I wrote for windows. But this require time that currently I don't have. ________________________________________________________________________ Author of C-3PO plugin, Squeezelite-R2, Falcon Web interface - See www.marcoc1712.it ------------------------------------------------------------------------ marcoc1712's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34842 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105309 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
