application to control xbmc - Brtrnd - 2011-08-20

Hello

I would like to have an application installed on my main pc to start/stop/queue music (and others) on my xbmc; just like the xbmc android remote does.
I'm very surprised there aren't any applications that can do this. Eventually I want to pull my playlists out of mediamonkey and make xbmc play them.

I'm looking on how feasible this is; but on the list of built in functions I see no way to populate the "now playing"-list.
Eventually I could create a playlist in some temporary location and make xbmc play this, but it doesn't sound the correct way.


What would be the command to use to add a song to the now playing list?

AWX web interface can queue files for a playlist

so there must be a command to do it.
not sure about saving a playlist from within AWX ive never tried but it can create them.
