Update metadata and README for the Gitea home and KiCad 10
metadata.json: identifier moved to a reverse-DNS form that matches the PCM schema pattern (the previous com.github.magdev/... contained a slash and was never valid), resource URL repointed at Gitea, and the declared minimum kicad_version raised from 6.0 to 10.0 because the symbols and footprints are now stored in the current format that KiCad 6 cannot read. README: clone URL, the KiCad 10 requirement, what the library actually covers (95 catalogue parts across 11 series plus the two terminal symbols and the radial MKT 22uF), and a pointer to the boxsim generator. metadata.json validates against /usr/share/kicad/schemas/pcm.v1.schema.json.

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It covers the complete crossover parts list Visaton ships with [Boxsim](https://www.visaton.de/), 95 parts across 11 series: MOX and ceramic resistors, Elko, MKT-A and MKP capacitors, and FC, LR, KN and SP inductors. On top of those it provides an `Amplifier` and a `Speaker` symbol for the terminals, and the radial `MKT 22μF` capacitor, which Visaton sells but does not offer in Boxsim's parts picker.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Requirements
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
KiCad 10 or newer. Symbols and footprints are stored in the current file format, which older KiCad versions cannot read.

## Generating a crossover from a Boxsim project
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[boxsim](https://src.bundespruefstelle.ch/magdev/boxsim-fileformat-rev) reads a Boxsim project file and generates a KiCad project whose schematic mirrors the crossover, with every part bound to a symbol and footprint from this library:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
export BOXSIM_KICAD_LIB=/path/to/kicad-visaton-lib
|
||||||
|
boxsim build project.bpj out/
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
