Firstly my plugin does install, but because it generates a custom.conf file and adds a processor into the pipeline it can take multiple restarts to get it fully operational once it is installed. This seems to be because it is waiting for any players to stop playing before completing the install, and with some streams like Qobuz the player carries on until the track has finished, which maybe longer than the reboot. (sorry for my ramblings).
Is there a way to programmatically force players to stop, or is this a bad idea?
I have my plugin installing off my own git repository - with a plugin.xml file that has an SHA pointing to it.
What do I need to do to make my available as an official plugin? I saw some posts about this a while back, but not sure what the answers meant or if they are still relevant.

A Pull request with the URL of your repo should be enough.
Probably a good idea to put the prospective URL here so that people can try it out first.

EQ for squeezebox, based off a revived versions of the old Inguz plugin. I want to do shiny new version using a newer DSP engine, but thought I would use this one as a basis of learning the LMS architecture. I am not 100 % happy with the install as it requires all players to be off, when you restart otherwise you end up having to restart several times.
You must add a version number to the downloadable file, or you'll face
problems with installations installing old version from a cache etc.
You mean the plugin.xml file? Is this just a tag like <version>9.38</version>
I noticed that there are version numbers in several places, for example here in the install.xml and also a revision number in the plugin.pm. Are they all necessary and are they expected to be the same value?
The version number in the install.xml must match the value in the repo file (LMS checks).
The repo file points to the zip file and that file should have a unique name for each release.
If you open up any of the repo files linked to by the GitHub link I posted you can see how others do it.

I have made changes and should now align with the standards/conventions used by the other plugins. I have revised and renamed the plugin repo file and uploaded a renamed zip file.

I'm not sure I understand... trust you to add a version number to the
download file?
