# $Id: INSTALL 260 2007-03-22 07:48:52Z stuarth $ This file contains very brief instructions on how to install and activate this plugin on SlimServer. For full details please refer to: http://hickinbottom.demon.co.uk/lazysearch 1. Make sure you are running SlimServer 6.5.0 or later (you need a different version of the plugin for SlimServer 6.3.x or 6.2.x - see the website if that applies to you). 2. Copy LazySearch2.pm to your SlimServer plugins directory. Windows: C:\Program Files\SlimServer\Server\Plugins Linux: it depends, but something like /usr/local/slimserver/Plugins MacOSX: ~/Library/SlimDevices/Plugins (I believe you need to do this as the user that you originally installed SlimServer as. 3. Restart SlimServer to make sure it has seen the new plugin. Windows: use the 'services' applet in the control panel, or the SlimServer tray icon in the bottom-right of the screen if you have it running. Linux: it depends, but something like '/etc/init.d/slimserver restart'. Mac OS X: use the standard OSX 'System Properties' menu. 4. Make sure the plugin is present and ticked on the 'Server Settings/Plugins' page on the SlimServer web interface. 5. Start using the plugin when the initial background scan has finished. The plugin will begin adding lazy search indexing the first time the server is restarted, and this will take a while. The server and player should remain responsive during this period, but you'll get a brief warning on the player if you try to search before the process has finished. This won't interrupt the indexing, however, so you can safely keep trying to see if the scan has finished. Press SEARCH on the SqueezeBox/Transporter remote to access the Lazy Search Music menu; press SEARCH again to access the original Search Music menu.
