Hm, that's right - the plugin is in the list of available plugins
without adding any additional repositories. But the error remains the
same - the plugin manager can't download the plugin because of timeout.

I tried earlier with LMS 8.3, but I thought that the plugin can't be
installed because it's incompatible with this version of LMS. But I
didn't check the log then, and thought of installing the plugin with an
earlier version of LMS and then upgrading. But if the plugin file is
unaccessible, there's no difference.

Maybe someone has an additional link of the custom clock helper plugin
zip file? Preferrably with a repository address, which would point the
plugin manager to the new location of the file.
Or can we somehow install the plugin manually, by placing the zip file
somewhere in LMS folder? I know this is not recommended, and would still
need a working link to the plugin zip. But if we had a link to the
plugin zip file, maybe as a workaround I could create a local xml file
as a repository that could be added to LMS plugins settings page?

Also, I have a backup of an LMS installation from another device, I
think it was the version before 8.0. I tried to copy the files of the
already installed plugin from the backup to my new installation of LMS
(on a joggler), to directory /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Plugins, but
the plugin failed to load in LMS this way.

Anyway, I'm trying to find a way to install this plugin, and if someone
has installed it recently, maybe they could help me :)
