[QUOTE="sixgun, post: 768808, member: 71410"] [b]Re: WifiRemote - a tcp remote control server 0.3.1 [2011-07-12][/b] Hi, Thanks for the great plugin. :thx: I've started working on a web based remote control application. I've got the basics working, Bonjour discovery of the media portal clients on the network (using [URL="http://zeroconf.codeplex.com/"]Bonjour.NET[/URL]). My web site then opens up a socket to send commands to WifiRemote. I've not bothered using an Asynchronous socket as I didn't think I really needed it, or have I got that wrong? My app seems to "freeze up" every now and then. It's easily remedied by going back to the home page and re-selecting the mediaportal client again, which re-opens the socket. So, I suspect it's something I'm doing wrong in handling the responses coming back to my web app. Anyway, what I really wanted to ask is if it's possible to retrieve things like video/photo/music folder paths. Ideally I'd like to provide much more than a simple remote control. I'd like to provide some kind of interface for selecting movies/music/photos/videos directly from my web app and then it just tell mediaportal to start playing a file / playlist. So, I'd be looking to pull information from Moving Pictures as a starter for 10. Thanks so much for your efforts on this plugin. If any of the stuff I've asked would require further development, I could take that on if you're willing to accept help from other developers. Regards. [/QUOTE]
