I am interested in extending the functionality of the iTunes Update
plugin and I'm looking for some help.

What I want to do is to add the ability pickup a track at the position
it was last played and to update the iTunes XML Database with the
current player position when a track stopped.  I am using a Mac so I
looked at the iTunes Applescript Library I have found the properties
which are used to accomplish this internally.  Relevant properties of
the item "Track" are: [bookmark (real) : the bookmark time of the track
in seconds] and [bookmarkable (boolean) : is the playback position for
this track remembered?].

So now 2 things need to be done:  One is before a track starts playing
is to check the "bookmarkable" property and if it is true, read the
bookmark property and set the Squeeze player position and play.  Two is
when a track is no longer being played check the "bookmarkable"
property and if it is true, write the bookmark property with the
current Squeeze player position.

I am not so familiar with SqueezeCenter or the iTunes Update Plugin. 
So I was wondering if someone who was could have a look at this and
help me add this feature.
