Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] MIP on a different IP
whoa it's sensitive to file paths? hmmm that rings a bell. been a couple of years since i've played with this :) could explain my trouble i'm messing around on how to do this on a separate server. Reason being I run SBS on a solaris 10 x86 box (ZFS, RAID-Z, and a giant archive of data). What I did a couple years back was run a Linux zone virtually on the same server, and it worked out ok. What i've been trying this time is running it on a Debian server on the same network, mounting the music via NFS, and then doing an ssh port-forward back from the solaris box. yes i know, seems like i'm going out of my way to make it more difficult :) just experimenting. I can go back to the linux zone method, it's just another thing to set up. What I'll probably end up doing in the longterm, is just make the solaris box a giant NFS server for applications like SBS, and then running stuff on Debian or something. Solaris had a good run but now that Oracle owns it we'll see even less people in the opensource community supporting it. -- mbw23 mbw23's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20248 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86730 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] MIP on a different IP
Thank you. That was helpful information. With that, I spent a little time editing the plug-in files to add back in the functionality. Not working 100% yet, but I'm getting closer. I see now why it was probably removed. If the file structure on the server machine doesn't look exactly like the file structure on the squeezebox machine, then there won't be a match and the MIP results won't make sense. This issue would make it impossible to support for a general user audience. Still working, but it might not be worth it... -- wactuary wactuary's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=233 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86730 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] MIP on a different IP
It has been possible earlier, in 7.3 I think, but it was removed in
beginning of 2009 in svn revision 25526 for some reason, the comment in
the log just says remove legacy path matching code.
At the moment Slim/Plugin/MusicMagic/Plugin.pm and
Slim/Plugin/MusicMagic/Importer.pm is hardcoded to contact MusicIP at
localhost and the configured port.
