Again I have not had time to look at detail on your changes to Pulseaudio. There are no LMS mechanics. The plugin just runs two applications as a processes connected by pipes - pulseaudio permissions not LMS is preventing these from running. IIRC A long time ago I setup Pulseaudio as system and daemon but then users complained that pulseaudio notes says this was security risk so other solutions were proposed which meant LMS was run with the same login process - these are constraints of pulseaudio not LMS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49584 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
