Update 15-Nov-06: Huge thanks to all the feedback from the beta 2 testers.
Beta 3 is now available at: http://www.edjo.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/edward/xAP/Slim/slim_downloads.htm Change Log: beta3 14/11/06 Changed open_port in Comm.pm to use INADDR_LOOPBACK, INADDR_BROADCAST and INADDR_ANY rather than localhost, 255.255.255.255 and 0.0.0.0 Added configuration entry for xAP broadcast address. Defaults to INADDR_BROADCAST. Removed restriction in Slim_Item.pm and SlimServer_Item.pm that messages need to be targetted. BSC messages remain requiring a target as per spec. Now tries 'no hub' mode before trying to connect to hub (Plugin.pm and Comm.pm), so should work without a hub. Determined that CRC.pm should not be included in the distribution (required functions in Comm.pm). Fixed issues en-queuing and de-queuing display messages. Removed attempt to force brightness on display messages; SlimServer v6.5 reverts to pre-set message brightness on next display refresh. Tidied up web settings. Used in-line HTML to work around default skin CSS line spacing issues. Only tested with default skin. Persist player subID values in player preferences. Once an ID is allocated to a player it will keep that ID across restarts. Previously done on a first come (connect) first served basis at startup. Fixed null pointer issue in song/transport data when no current playlist exists for player. -- erspearson ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erspearson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8425 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29573 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
