I'm sorry if what I wrote came over too harshly. I certainly don't want anyone else "to do my job for me". However, this is not about finding a solution for my particular problem/installation, but about making a generalized version of that available to community at large. Also, I didn't want to suggest that the included patch was by any means a perfect implementation that could not be improved or even should be included as-is.
I'm totally open to suggestions how to add such a feature for Synology users (either the disabling of MySB integration or the generalized one of adding command line options to the start/stop script) in a way that benefits the community as whole. Martin's idea was to write a plugin. If I were to propose a patch or pull request to slimserver.pl that changed the constant NOMYSB to some callback or variable (to be able to be overridden by a plugin), I'm pretty sure you would reject it, no? Reinventing the wheel and providing a second set of update packages is not a solution for anyone: It would be confusing for users, provide a lot of work for me and probably some misdirected support questions for Martin. (I've since contacted Synology with a feature suggestion for their LMS package, but knowing their support, I doubt it will reach an actual developer anytime soon.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pputzer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=36842 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103636 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
