(Squeezebox Remote) any MPD client or TCP .lua library?

[tsfh]

Hello,

I purchased this WE a Squeezebox Remote (not shipped yet) in order to command my MPD (music player daemon) server which is hosted on a Debian HTPC.

I don't mind on weeks of programming (and also learn another language which seems to be interresting), but I wonder if someone already done that (an MPD client for the squeezebox "hardware" remote).

I found http: // wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Jive_Lua_source_code_conventions, which seems to be a good startpoint, and the wikipedia page on Lua concepts. IMHO the best way would be to learn by reading good one TCP clients, such as an SMTP, IMAP, ... implementations (not just a script-kiddie hack, but something written in accordance to coding styles guidelines).

Could someone pointing me such a piece of code of that kind?

It seems HTTP fully integrated, but I guess I will have to switch blocking/non blocking modes.

Thanks in advance,
Thomas Harding

That's probably more of a topic for the developers forum than for
beginners... but what do you actually want to achieve?

In first just a remote for my MPD server, then maybe in the future displays of locals album jacquets and so on.

It seems it will be more difficult as I expected: on the wiki they says SSH is enabled, and in fact port 22 does not respond, and the controller menu is blocked on "squeezebox configuration" step :/

All my searches on Controller/SBC, or SSH fails on the wiki.

Thats why I posted in Beginners : to have tips
