Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] LmsUpdate and LmsRepack - Synology 8.0.* packages
The LMS server.log might have some clues. My first guess would have been file/folder permissions. Perhaps your new Perl installation or the running LMS does not have the required rights to open the files.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Spotty 4.5 - improved Ogg direct, Autoplay, multi-user setup
I also installed Librespot on my Windows laptop and volume normalisation definitely works when playing to it from the Spotify app. So volume normalisation works for Librespot but not for Spotty. What parameters are you using? There (unfortunately) are three different normalization related settings in LMS. What streaming format did you use for Spotty? Did you vary settings/formats in your tests? Did you use any particular setting in your librespot test? ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] LmsUpdate and LmsRepack - Synology 8.0.* packages
I succsefully downgraded PERL (Perl-armada38x-5.24.0-0074.spk), and got my LMS (7.9.1) running again .. Sort of: I can see the interface and it will play streaming services like Spotify, but when I try to play music from my library, nothing happens (it shows 1 or 2 seconds, then stops). I have tried rescanning the library, but same problem. Does anyone have any ideas? Should I go to older version of PERL?

I haven't tinkered much with the bridge settings but it does seem to require that 'send LMS metadata to player' is set to 'yes' for both metadata and cover art.

What is the current situation regarding volume normalisation? I see You tell me... As I don't use it myself (I only use the LMS global online source adjustment), I don't really know what is working and what is not. normalisation-method basic has been removed from custom-convert.conf, does that mean normalisation is supposed to be using "dynamic" normalisation now? No. "basic" is now baked in to the v1.0.1 helper binaries.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Last.fm scrobbling from LMS with no Internet
I think it queues them to disk and keeps trying until it manages to connect - but not 100% certain. https://github.com/Logitech/slimserver/blob/359cd3a1d08a1fa86c954d1f6ac412714783522f/Slim/Plugin/AudioScrobbler/Plugin.pm#L325 However, take care ... I found from bitter experience that last.fm does not accept items more than X days old (I think 1 month) and I think it refuses items older than the most recent scrobbled. So when you come back on-line somewhere make sure you do not scrobble until LMS has caught up. e.g. if you play from your phone with a media player than can also scrobble. I am not 100% certain of this last part because last.fm went through a horrific period of API rewriting and breaking things a few of years ago. It hit me because I scrobble to one account once a month via a command line tool ... and something broke at last.fm so they were not accepted and then I reached their time limit so I could not get the old scrobbles in ... so I had to change the timestamp on them all ... which made it look like a very busy month once they finally accepted things again.
