Hi, together with a colleague I've written an application that enables clients for e. g. MPD to communicate with e. g. XMMS2. For those who are interested: http://jamus.googlecode.com
MPD actively notifies clients when a seek occured, so in order to make our MPD clients happy, we need to notify them when a seek occurs in XMMS2. As far as I know there is no broadcast for this. We have "solved" this problem in our code by always checking the playtime signal and notifying our clients whenever the time reported by the playtime signal is, say, 100ms off an estimate. Needless to say, this is ugly and error-prone. So I thought it wouldn't hurt to have a broadcast for seeks, would it? But maybe I missed something and there is indeed a better way to do it!? I have discussed this briefly in the IRC where it was pointed out to me that apparently the reason that no such broadcast exists is that no one requested it so far. Of course I'd be willing to give a hand and write a patch if others think it would be useful. By the way, I'm pretty new to XMMS2, so please bear with me ;) Anyway, I was quite impressed by XMMS2 and the C++ client library. Keep up the good work :) Regards Bernhard -- _______________________________________________ Xmms2-devel mailing list Xmms2-devel@lists.xmms.se http://lists.xmms.se/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xmms2-devel
