if isub can control the SAME JUKEBOX as the regular web interface (http://yourserver.com:4040/index.view) I would love to know how it does it.

Here is a test. Load up some tracks in the jukebox player from the standard web interface. Now in another browser window, load this URL, replacing "mysite.com:4040" with the proper url for your subsonic server

http://mysite.com:4040/rest/jukeboxCont ... action=get

And you should have returned an xml object listing -- no tracks. click "reload" over in the standard interface window, and look - the jukebox playlist is now empty ! If you are lucky, you may even get a java error. Go ahead and restart Subsonic now, as it's the only way I've found to clear the error.

Now, as long as you ONLY control it from REST applications (isub, android, etc) that may work, but you can't share between the standard web and a REST API client.

See thread on the dev list:

I would mind if it's a seperate app for implementing jukebox if thejukebox functionality is incomplaint with the base architecture of the current app.

any news on this feature? it would greatly enhance the android app.

[ripken204]

I would love to have this as well.
I was just playing with the code for this, seeing if I could figure out how to add it myself... pretty complicated.
My android apps have been simple so far.

it seems like all you need to do is update the playlist you want.

the android device doesnt seem to have a playlist at all, it's not visible in subsonic on the bottom player.
so im not even sure if the createPlaylist function is being called

thanks for subsonic sindre!

[nickcw]

Would be good if this was implemented.

[ebarrere]

I would love to see this too!

[twyncyn]

I can only reaffirm this request. I installed Subsonic yesterday, just because to remote control my HiFi connected Debian host with my Android phone. Just to find out this feature is not yet intended.

Is any help/support needed, the community can be of help with?
