digitalb0y Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 How tough would it be to write something similar to the Flirc GUI that could be run cross platform in a browser over an http port, the way you might control things like Sickbeard, SABnzbd+ or CouchPotato? Then even OSes without their own GUI could make use of a more graphical means of configuring Flirc. This would be great for people like me, who have a Flirc that decided it hates Mac and only wants to function properly from a Linux command line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris! Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 I have to say that is a pretty good way of making it cross platform. Though I think Jason is hard at work on issues and features for the actual device at the moment. And most importantly of all - I have no influence on project direction etc. Now lets get you mac problems sorted out... :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digitalb0y Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Well, I'm just starting to learn Python, and I think this will make a great first project. Since there's an API and commands that can easily be scripted I think it's worth trying. I have negative free time so I don't promise any kind of timeline, or even that I'll be successful at all, but if I wind up with anything useful I'll absolutely share it.

jason Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 I do have an API written in C. I will post this in the near future when I clean it up. This is a great idea though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalb0y Posted April 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 I don't know what thread I was reading that made me think there was an API when I posted this originally. I patiently await the arrival of such a thing. :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris! Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 I thought an API has been mentioned somewhere on the website/forum so you're not going mad :) Until then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
