Quote:Patrick,

I actually wrote this script as a part of another script that i still haven't finished. I plan(ned) on finishing a script i call 'shadowbox'. The basic idea of the script was to have a the script running and it would delegate any other xboxes running xbmc on the network to play the exact same file. If the file is played off a share, then the other xboxes are told to play that file. If it is a file stored locally on the xbox running shadowbox, then shadowbox brings up the http server hosting only the local file and tells the other xboxes play that file.

The point is to have music or video playing in multiple rooms, granted that it wouldn't be perfectly synced, you could still walk room to room and not miss a beat. I am not sure that this would be useful to anyone other than me, but i imagine there are people out there with more than one xbmc box running in their home. I almost have it finished, but this semester and work have drained my free time.

Anyway, I noticed halfway through shadowbox that i could quickly post this part as a stand alone web server. So I just hacked in a config file and tossed the lib directory with it.

If anyone wants to make a gui for the config part or fix the lib directory that is cool with me, but i would still like to be able update it myself. So i wouldn't orphan it, i could just use some help maintaining it until i get some time.

If you find anyone who wants to help me out, let me know,
