Hey fellas,
just wanted to report that I have started working on a SiriServer XBMC plugin so people can control XBMC with Siri.
This server uses Google's Voice API instead of Apple's and therefore is much easier to install for non-iPhone 4S users as there is no need to trick Apple's servers and what not.
The plugin has been added to the main repository and has been updated every couple of days with extra features-> https://github.com/Eichhoernchen/SiriServer
I need to say this is still extremely alpha and I am not very experienced with python but it seems to be working alright.
Currently supported commands are:
Suggestion are more than welcome and if more people want to jump on board and help with the coding I would be thrilled!
A lot of credit should go to tripkip as he has made the plugin even more functional adding movie covers on the replies and adding extra commands

Currently supported commands are:
Code:
xbmc play/pause -> plays/pauses current video
xbmc stop -> stops current video
xbmc play [movie name] -> starts playing the movie if a match was found, if multiple matches found than it returns them through Siri
xbmc info -> returns the XBMC URL being used
xbmc shutdown/shut down/turn off -> Shuts down computer through XBMC's internal functions
xbmc start/boot/boot up -> send a magic packet to wake up the computer.
Suggestion are more than welcome and if more people want to jump on board and help with the coding I would be thrilled!
