Does it still work in 6.2?

I use a script on the master to start a playlist on a remote but doesn't seem to work now since upgrading the remote to 6.2 (Remote-StartRepeatingPlaylist.sh). 

Script is a leadon position for a playlist...seems to run but the playlist does not start on the remote, the playlist name does exist on the remote and the remote can connect to the remote ok ip wise.


Script does look like it can run, ran it through ssh on the master no errors report from the run.

fpp@FPP:~/media/scripts $ ./Remote-StartRepeatingPlaylist.sh
fpp@FPP:~/media/scripts $

#!/bin/sh

You should probably use FPP Commands and not scripts. The FPP Commands are more efficient and easier to use.

I don't see a Start Remote Playlist/Repeat, only a local Start Playlist, and the master is using a FPP command (Run Script).

Because any command be a "Remote" version.  Click the multisync button and then type in the appropriate IP address.

I didn't know that looks pretty cool but doesn't seem to have helped.  Still does not start the Playlist.
