it is possible, to add in the lcd menü from the xbmc an option to send the infos via ip/tcp as text file to a device or via ftp the textfile on a place on the device??

i think via ftp is the better one.

so a router (linksys) or a digtal receiver (dbox2, dreambox) can show the info on the lcd display. or the info can be show on homepage or or or...

i know i can read the info via http://xboxip/xbmccmds/xbmchttp?command=getcurrentlyplaying but i wish that the xbmc make it automatic.

hehe "it is possible": seems you are asking something you allready know.

no problem doing a python script that will upload info to an ftp server, on every track played.

the lcd part, i did not understand. (it's not possible to do anything with the lcd trough python, in case you wonder.)

try to form a topic in python forum for requests.

the lcd part: on the system menü, on xbmc, was the menü lcd, this i mean. instead to send to the lcd display on the xbox, send the info to other devices via tcp/ip (like dbox2, linksys router, hompageserver, etc) as text file or via ftp to the device. not to the lcd on the xbox.

xbox -> send via tcp/ip (ftp) -> homepageserver (or dbox2/dreambox)

i ask in the python forum. thanks
