Simple web-interface - Alekz - 28-12-2012 02:01
Not sure if it was already discussed. A simple web-interface and a built-in UPnP controller can make the server available from everywhere and from any platform/device without installing additional UPnP controllers. All what will be needed is a web-browser.
The interface can be the same as for UPnP control apps: what to play, where and basic options. That's it. No frills.

I agree that a web UI is needed, and I'm planning to add this as a future improvement to MinimServer. I'll probably start by providing the equivalent of MinimWatch in a web UI.
A basic web-based control point would be useful as well, but I'm not sure how easy it would be to keep this at a basic level when users start asking for more advanced features.

This would be much appreciated as I could store the link as a favorite and call it on the iPad from the couch, similar to the config page on Twonky. Particulary the restart wwould be used frequently as I like to see spelling fixes etc that I do to reflect straight away in the library
thanks
