I'd like to get and display cover art, and retrieve tag info via your web control interface, is there a way or can you guys implement a way to do so. Sorry for such a forward request, but you guys asked us to submit requests for additioms.

try "getcover?file="

like:
http://192.168.178.10:81/getcover?file=\\HD\Public\Shared%20Music\0-9\10%20Years\10%20Years%20-%20Through%20The%20Iris.mp3

OK, thanks, ill give that a try, where did you find that info? is there a way to simlarly get info from the tags? like name and description fields?

[galahad1974]

with that it reports that getcover isnt a supported function.

Just checked and it's working (with enabled RemoteServer option and JR 14.0.121) .

"where did you find that info?"
Just browse to the infoScreen of a file (RemoteServer) and take a look to the html source code.

other option:
Install the xpTunes Demo Version, it's free.

and use the command:
http://IP:Port/bw/control.cgi?command=getCoverById&value=157&subvalue=large
or http://IP:Port/bw/control.cgi?command=getCoverById&value=0&subvalue=small
to get a small cover of current track.

regards,
Markus

dude, i love xptunes, but what i need this for is theater remote control, so it has to support video and image files also. Your product is awesome, open it up for other media types and ill pay you for it right now.
