Is it possible to run two instances of the web interface on different ports? I'm sure you're wondering why.
I want to have one running for normal control, using Chorus 2 and a second one that I can remove all buttons and controls from to be front facing on the internet. That way I can have a website that shows the cover art, artist art, song progress bar, band name and song name without just anyone logging into that port and controlling my Kodi. I tried to duplicate and customize that portion of the settings.xml, but I only know enough to really make a mess and Kodi won't start. I'm testing it on Windows, but want to actually put it into place on OSMC on a Pi. I have already got it working by embedding the (modified) web interface in an iframe, but the only way I can see to have it show outside my local network is to expose the web interface to the internet. Obviously that won't work.
Any insight would be very helpful.
