Serviio

I've got a vague idea to create a new HTML client for my Samsung tv, the all share one is okay, but I think a nicer looking ui more tuned to serviio would be even better. You'd not need the Samsung part of this to useful, as any browser with JavaScript support should work.

If I understand things correctly by getting my soap calls to the server right I should be able to browse and get the data using Ajax wrapping up the soap requets. Is this assumption correct?

To help get me started I was hoping that someone could give me a few well formed soap requests that would get me started quickly. I know this information is probably available elsewhere, but I've not found a concise list of what dlna functions serviio supports that would help me.

After browsing, I'd like to have a look at streaming.... But let's not run before we can walk....(would the html5 video tags helps here?)

Help would be appreciated!

1.0 will introduce a public REST API to the browsing / streaming functionality so you don't have to deal with SOAP.

Awesome!

Thanks for the quick response. Any ideas when a preview/ beta may be available? It would be cool to get a proof of concept together.

I made you betatester. get the last beta in the beta forum and there is also the API document with one of the previous 1.0 betas

Brilliant. Thanks again. Really appreciate this.... Now to get serviio client looking cool on the Samsung tv!
