Run this command from a terminal window to load the plist into launchctl. sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/squeezeslave.plist I have macports installed with all the codec shared libraries in /opt/local/lib and had to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH so squeezelite could find them. Also squeezelite did not parse the command line options correctly unless I put each part in a separate string tag.
