Display Kodi Now Playing information on Squeezebox hardware - supports SB2, Sb3, SB Classic and probably even SliMP3 - the line based players.

(This is not an addon for Kodi itself, rather it is an addon for Logitech Media Server). It allows you to display Kodi Now Playing information on Squeezebox hardware - supports SB2, Sb3, SB Classic and probably even SliMP3 - the line based players.

Here you can see it in action showing the time remaining on a video file, displayed on a Squeezebox 3: <img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.squeeze.bossanova808/raw/master/downloads/Other%20Downloads/Images/XSD-800x592.jpg">


To install this repo on your Logitech Media Server, go to LMS->Settings->Plugins and add this repo at the end:

http://github.com/bossanova808/repository.squeeze.bossanova808/raw/master/staging/repo.xml

Restart your LMS. You should then be able to install the addon from the repo and will receive updates automatically etc.

To configure the addon and see instructions, go to LMS->Settings->Plugins->XSqueezeDisplay->Settings.

N.B

You must have the perl module IO::Socket::SSL installed to download the addon from the repo (as github redirects everything to SSL). Seems to be present by default usually anyway on most common LMS systems (tested on Win7 and Linux Mint 17 with LMS 7.7+). If you need to install it, there is a guide to installing modules here.
