Can't get MIDI plugin to install

[Jim Mc]

Hi,
I'm trying to get the MIDI plugin to work. I tried on 7.2, and it failed. So I just downloaded 7.4 and tried again. Everything is functioning normally after initial installation, then when I install the FPP MIDI plugin, and I get errors during installation (below). After those errors, FPP thinks that the MIDI plugin is installed. But FPPD won't start any more until I remove the Plug-in.

There appears to be a fairly recent bug report on Github that matches (https://github.com/FalconChristmas/fpp-midi/issues/6).

I just don't have any experience in this to know how long bugs like this take to resolve. So if the normal timeframe is going to be a while, I'm wondering if there might be a workaround so I can keep building out my project. Maybe there's an older FPP version that I could install that would still work with the currently installable MIDI plug-in? Or maybe someone has a different workaround?

Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
Jim

Hi all, I don't know if I violated a forum rule and didn't get replies, or if this is just something that no one else has any desire to do. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Try with FPP 8.2.    There's very little chance that anyone will look at it for anything older than the most recent.
