      even replaced with http, that's not a thread link

      and what are you running the server on?

          well I use slimserver on ubuntu linux. But I guess this has to be done on the hardware... or?

              It's hard to know what you're talking about, or give any advice, when your messages don't contain much information and the link you refer to isn't valid.

              .pm files are Perl modules. All of SBS is built on Perl modules, as are plugins. Plugins are generally installed on the computer that is running SBS, not on the Squeezebox itself.

              Please give a little more info, and a valid link, and maybe someone could help.

                      I'm afraid that one uses the old plugin API, so unless you are using SlimServer 5.x or possibly an early SlimServer 6.x they will require modifications to work in the current 7.x SBS version.

                      It doesn't seem to have a lot of server API dependencies, so I'm guessing it's probably possible to get it to work with some adjustments in the code. I suggest that you contact the plugin author and ask for help unless you are a developer who is able to do the adjustments yourself.

                          well, I am a developer and unless you guys know of any other EASIER ways to play .mod files (converting them into flac?) I will re-program the module.

                              well the easiest solution was to use wav out in winamp, and then use FLAC to encode the wav's to flac.
