Re^2: Logitech Media Server/Squeezebox/Squeeze Server/Slim devices help

Hi hdb,

I'm pretty sure that the announced lengthy question may be about Perl because the Logitech Media Server Software is written in Perl.

To answer the initial poster: Probably you should ask a shorter question to get a feeling about the direction of your problem.

Best regards
McA

Yes it's all perl(well maybe a dash of shell scripting). I'm trying to modify a logitech media server(LMS) plugin, brutefirdrc to create a menu in both the LMS web ui and an ios app called ipeng to control said plugin. Currently the plugin only has a menu on a squeezebox and my project does not use a squeezebox. Creating these menus isn't an really an issue. The problem is the plugin is heavily reliant on the player(squeezebox) for much of the data it needs to function. None of this data needs to come from the player that's just the way the original programmer saw fit I guess. So I need someone that's pretty familiar with LMS to help me figure out how to either spoof a client in the plugin or some other way to use the functions in brutefirdrc that don't work without a squeezebox.
