What does $client->isPlayer() do?

[max.spicer]

For which devices would $client->isPlayer() return false? Do such devices have playlists, volume, power state etc?

Cheers,

Max

I believe isPlayer is only false for HTTP streaming clients
(stream.mp3). See Slim::Player::HTTP.

http connections would be the only real case. Anything with no
display, no volume controls etc. Mostly it exists to prevent use of
methods on client objects that won't be present for non-'players'

See Slim/Player/HTTP.pm
