Hi all
After many months of trying to get my HTPC to work the way I would like it to be (hence not buying an of-the-shelve product), I decided to give it a go to develop something that will work with my setup (Antec Veris Elite LCD, ASUS J1900I-C board, 8GB RAM (LOL only because it was lying around), CoolerMaster chassis, PicoPSU .... completely silent hardware setup
, Win7 Ultimate, NAS with 2.7TB storage on RAID5 and 2x 1Gb interfaces)
I'm tired of using in-between tools that uses the iMON API (because Soundgraph geniuses refuses to release their code) and hopefully within a couple of months we will have a fully functional single application between Kodi and the iMON driver. I started experimenting with the JSONRPC for Kodi and there are some exciting stuff to be done here.
Some features on my wishlist that was not included in the original iMON Manager:
- Display the current running time\remaining time when playing a movie\series instead of the progress bar
- Have all the icons done properly (codecs, media etc)
- All other functionality as provided with frontview
30+ years of coding should help me achieve this but time may be an issue....
