[Linux] dbus integration or MPRIS

[adnuser]

i think to create a dbus server to interact with xbmc,
but what do you think about MPRIS

XBMC uses dbus already for certain features, HAL integration so it can mount and handle harddrives and such. and PowerManagement.

I think adding a server so XBMC is controllable by dbus might be a good thing, but personally I wonder if this shouldnt be done via EventServer, just to not add up unnecessary code in XBMC.

But MPRIS sounds good at first glance, any apps that specifically uses this abstraction?

yes, Videolan software.

how to use eventServer ....
maybe a dbus binding for event sever ?
