I'll add an option that enables you to decide whether you want the window to stay on top or not. Considering the artwork for online radio stations, I could just use the method used in the web UI, but the returned images often have a poor quality. Maybe there's a better API somewhere out there :) > First of all: don't use the CLI. To use json/rpc is not only much more > reliable, but seems the natural choice for anything written in JS!

I've decided to choose the API provided via CLI as it provides real-time information about your clients' status. For example, if you change the volume or track on a client, the app will be instantly notified and represent these changes with as little latency as possible. The Node.JS part provides a telnet client that is used to connect to the server control it. Maybe I can keep the CLI part just for the notifications and do the rest using the JSON/RPC API. > Why not implement this as a skin in LMS, plus a wrapper around webkit to > make it standalone? That's a good idea. I'll see if I can do that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leolabs's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=62666 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101145 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
