  <b>Greyhound</b><br />

  A PHP-based web interface for Amarok<br />

  <br />

  &gt;&gt;&gt; <b>To access this script once started navigate to: &lt;&lt;&lt;<br />

  &gt;&gt;&gt; <a href="http://localhost:7447/">http://localhost:7447/</a> &lt;&lt;&lt;

</div>

<p>I wrote Greyhound because of some issues I was having with other web

   interface scripts freezing and not working right. Greyhound is my first

   shot at writing Amarok scripts but it seems to work pretty well.

   </p>

<p>Greyhound's interface is based on the WebControl script by Jonas Christian

   Drewsen, André Kelpe, and Peter C. Ndikuwera. However unlike WebControl

   Greyhound is written entirely in PHP, making it a bit more portable. This

   script doesn't require an external web server to run, it has a relatively

   basic built-in (but multi-threaded) server.</p>

<p>The script needs a browser with XmlHttpRequest (AJAX) support to work. It's

   been tested on Firefox 3.0.1, Safari, and Opera 9.5.</p>

<p>It uses Smarty templates so you should be able to customize the HTML to

   your needs. The template file is /themes/funkymonkey/playlist.tpl. There's

   also a theme called iphone which is optimized for use on Apple's touch

   screen based mobile devices. Now your iPod® can control music other than

   its own :-P</p>

  <b>License</b><br />

  I was originally planning to place this into the public domain but decided to

  make it <b>GPLv2</b> because it uses so many GPLv2 components.

  <b>Known issues</b><br />

  There are a few bugs in Greyhound that I haven't been able to iron out.

</p>

<ul>

  <li>The socket it listens on doesn't get fully closed until about a minute

      after you interrupt the script. This means that when you hit stop in

      the script manager, you won't be able to start Greyhound again for about

      60 seconds. I checked everything and socket_shutdown() and socket_close()

      are being called properly, so I don't know why it's failing.</li>

  <li>As of version 0.1 alpha 3, the playlist should be updated properly. If

      you change your playlist but don't see the changes show up in Greyhound

      after about 1-2 minutes, please report it as a bug. Please see

      <a href="http://forum.enanocms.org/post/14/#p14">this forum post</a>

      for more information.</li>

</ul>
