It can be installed over the old one although you should note the following.
Installation location The "correct" place for 3rd party plugins installed via the settings page is in C:\ProgramData\Squeezebox\Cache\InstalledPlugins\Plugins whereas the manual install puts the files here C:\Program Files (x86)\Squeezebox\server\plugins I found this very confusing as I had installed over the top of a manual install and then removed the files in C:\Program Files (x86)\Squeezebox\server\plugins, not realising that the plugin had installed to a different location. So I didn't see how it would still be working. Updating Binaries This is optional - if you have a working installation you won't gain much if anything here. The primary reason was to simplify the install, so no need for a new install of .NET runtimes or Mono on Linux Features There are no new features over the existing code. In fact I have ripped out some of the code associated with making room measurements and various noise generators there as better solutions out there now. Roadmap The main rationale here was to upgrade to a simplified install that would work on most platforms and give me something solid to put future upgrades in place. Like you I have found he DSP and in particular room correction is the biggest single audio improvement that you can make to your system, so enabling more people to do it easily is the first step. I am planning to do a post on the easiest way to take room measurements that work, but want to test it out on my newest and cheapest measurement mic first. I will probably post that on ASR. I will then be doing some experiments with CamillaDSP to see if that will work as a replacement of InguzDSP as the DSP engine. In theory Camilla is much faster and allows full Parametric EQ - if I can figure this out then the UI will need to change but I think the foundation is there. >From this point onwards any changes will be around the usability of the UI. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ foxesden's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56286 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116119 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
