Paul,

Thanks for the detailed description. My LMS server (actually it's an
Intel NUC) is located in the attic and powered off when not in use. When
my players are not in use I always pull the plugs, so I need a WOL
command to wake up the server. Of Course this can be achieved with the
Tweaks -> User command option, but why take the easy way when it is also
possible to configure this with my applet ;) Another benefit, at least
for me ,is that I can easily switch MAC addresses, as I have multiple
LMS servers for test purposes.

I'll try to rewrite to code to take advantage of piCorePlayer's
configuration logic. Will report back when this is done.

Regards,
Arie
