Mt-daapd is an ‘iTunes’ server that you can run on a linux system holding your music collection.
When fiddling around with configuration, I came accros the following error message in the syslog:
Error loading plugin /usr/lib/mt-daapd/plugins/ssc-script.so: plugin declined to load
I was trying to setup a custom transcoding script. That required to load the ‘ssc-script.so’ plugin first.
When increasing the log level, it gave a more descriptive hint to what is going on:
No codectypes specified for script transcoder.
Error loading plugin /usr/lib/mt-daapd/plugins/ssc-script.so: plugin declined to load
After uncommenting the following line in /etc/mt-daapd.conf:
ssc_codectypes = ogg,flac,alac
…it showed no error messages anymore:
Loaded plugin /usr/lib/mt-daapd/plugins/ssc-script.so (ssc-script/svn-1696)
