Hi,

I'm sortof new around here so apologies if I've missed any existing
documentation.

What I'd like to do is be able to set up an arbitrarily complex
schedule to turn
my squeezebox on and off playing specific internet radio stations. Like
the 
existing "alarm" facility but with more options. And I'd like to do
this without
running a slimserver.

It seems like the best way to do this involves writing a cron job or
similar to 
automatically log in to the squeezenetwork and do the appropriate
things to
send the right commands to my local squeezebox.

I've looked at this thread:
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?p=267322
and that looks like exactly what I need. Except it doesn't seem to
work.
All that happens, as far as I can tell, is the CLI echos all commands
except
'version', which prints some version information, and 'can' which
replies with
"can 0" (which I don't understand at all ...).

There's also a reference in that thread to a netcontrolxml interface,
which also
looks like it would suffice, but I can't find any information at all
about the 
syntax or commands or what the actual argument values are. Can someone
point me to a source of information?


If there isn't any documentation, a pointer to source code would be
good. In which
case I'll write up (and share) some docs myself.

Thanks for any help, and if there's a better way to be doing this, I'd
love to
hear about that too.
