Sorry players ? Should get players %3F count%3A2 Any % characters are ascii character set (3F = ? 3A = :) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Philip Meyer Sent: 16 June 2005 21:52 To: Slim Devices Discussion Subject: Re: [slim] Re: CLI on windows box? >Try player ? and press enter > I typed logon and got an echo back: login . I then tried player ? and got back: player %3F. I guess %3F is hex (63 dec). The ASCII of that is "5". I don't have 5 players - 2 listed in slimserver, unless perhaps it includes old units that I may have had connected in the past (PDA, softsqueeze on localhost, and streaming from work PC). Does that sound right?

The first command I saw listed, was "login" which I assumed I would need to use, as I do use username/password protection. It didn't work. I tried a few other commands, but all had the same result - returning blank. However, I just tried again, with "login " and got back an echo of my username and **. I *think* I might have misread and typed "logon" instead of "login" previously ;) Phil ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Try player ? and press enter It will tell you how many players you have Player id 0 ? 'enter' or 1 etc will tell you the mac address of the player If you then type the mac address play 'enter' it will play Note the mac address that it gives you back %3a = : Any more info just ask - Trying to update the crestron module at the minute that uses all these commands -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Philip Meyer Sent: 16 June 2005 20:19 To: Slim Devices Discussion Subject: Re: [slim] Re: CLI on windows box?

I have tried to connect using the MS Windows cmd prompt telnet command. When I do "telnet localhost 9090", I get a blank window with flashing cursor. If I type anything, such as "login" or "version", the telnet session just exits back to a standard DOS prompt without any output. Am I doing something wrong?

OK... I get the bonehead of the day award. I swear it wasn't connecting earlier.. and with my latest attempts I simply saw the "connecting to ." message and assumed it never connected But, in the meantime, I have managed to write a nifty PHP script that grabs my current winamp playlist (via the httpQ winamp plugin). All tracks that have a "mapping" on my slimserver (and URLs) are then enqueued on the slim (via web interface right now) How if only I knew how to write a winamp plugin... -- BKDotCom ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

That doesn't make any sense. open up a console window (aka "dos window"). type this command: telnet localhost 9090 it'll look like nothing's happening, but as long as you don't get a response back like "connection refused", that means it's connected. If you're using the windows telnet client, hit Ctrl+] followed by quit to close the session. -- Maditude ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
