Re: xAP Plug-in for SlimServer beta release

I've now managed to get the plugin displayed on the slimserver
webpage.
All I did was change the folder from 'xap' to 'xAP' and reboot the
pc/restart slimserver. I don't know if renaming the folder was the
problem or it just needed a reboot.
I can see the heartbeats via xap viewer, and every 60sec, status
messages are also recorded. What I still can't get to work is the
display of xap messages on my squeezebox (version 2).
I am using xap hub, xap weather, xap news, mail monitor and xap OSD
for mail programs, all running on the same pc as slimserver. However
when the squeezebox is in standby displaying date and time, I no
longer get periodic displays of news headlines, weather or my mail. If
I run up the old slimserver connector (windows version) it will all
work again ok (at least for a day or so, before stopping).

As the plugin stands, will it automatically allow xap display messages
to appear on my squeezebox, or does the squeezebox now have to be on
all the time?
I've looked at the xap settings on slimserver, there doesn't appear to
be anything that needs changing to enable the display.
What i'm I doing wrong?

Ian.
