KODIJIVELETTE

This project is stopped It was just to learn a little bit the python language and the programmation. the communication between the client and the server is based on the CLI interface. Rather than explore this path, I prefer to look for another way based on the more efficient http json interface and the cometd (this seems very tricky)

But you can install it and run it, normally it should work as is

kodijive is intented to watch on the kodi display (commonly a TV) the information about the streamed music from your multiroom SqueezeBox. it is, normally, compliant with the last version of Logitech media server formely named SqueezeCenter, Squeezebox Server or SlimServer As it communicate with the server, it need a server (sender the music) and a player (receiver the music) to be operationnal. In this alpha version, kodijivelette could not drive enterely your music library, just watching what it's playing and some more functions. To drive completely the streamed music you can get Android app on smartphone like Squeezer... or use the web interface of the server.

It doesn't include the player (receiver the music) unlike other addons "Xqueeze" (author : bossanova) and "plugin.audio.squeezebox" (author : marcelvedt) that include Squeezelite. On LibreElec you can install other Addon (MultimediaTools) to get Squeezelite binary running as a player ; or you can use at home other hardware receiver, or simple player based on raspberry pi with improved softwares all-in-one like PicorePlayer, Max2Play, etcoetera , have a look to the appropriate documentation of these software. But if you are here is that you already know all this, is not it?

I gave the name kodijivelette addon which is not a very great originality being a kind of tiny jivelite running on the platform kodi

I hope that this little kodi addon will please you
