I posted a few days ago about creating a CD Library Plug-in,
specifically for my DC-300. I’ve successfully reverse engineered the USB protocol
and have a working command line utility for changing library disks. So this got
me thinking about my proposed plug-in. I’m creating a CD-Library plug-in for mythtv with the
following features: 1) A list of CD’s,
DVD’s, Xbox games. I’m hoping to make it have a tree like interface
similar to MythMusic for navigating categories. 2) The ability
to “Select” a disk from the list and have a customizable shell
script/command run with the device id and disk id of the disk selected. This
would allow support for additional libraries. There are several SCSI and USB
type external CD/DVD libraries around. This would let you use em, for example
you could create a shell script that includes a xine call to play a DVD if your
library has a reader. 3) The ability
to “Check Out” a disk. Basically a lend function to lend a specific
disk to people (configurable) 4) The ability
to “Check In” a disk. A return function. 5) A recognize
feature, leverage the CDDB and IMDB code to try and recognize a disk in the
drive for addition to the library. If there is any interest in this, or you have feature idea’s/requests
please feel free to discuss here or email me directly. I will find someplace to post the completed V1 of the
plugin. I expect to have a working V1 sometime in the next few weeks (my first
plugin, I’m going thru mythdvd for hints). Regards, David |
