Hey, I recently found GeekTool and want to use it to show the currently playing song on my desktop.
I wrote a simple Perl script that gets this data via the telnet interface simply issuing a "current_title ?" command. This works fine while playing songs from the library, but when it comes to the LastFM Plugin it will show what the playlist shows, namely sth. like 'Recommended Titles' or 'Neighbors'. I didn't yet find a way to get to the information displayed in the player control section above the playlist, the meta data of the currently playing song as retrieved by lastfm.com! I grep'ed through the whole slimserver folder for "addDispatch" to find any commands that could be useful, tried an awful lot of commands but found nothing. Is there a way to get this information via CLI commands? Thanks a lot in advance!
