Re: slimserver xpl module help

["rleong1" <rleong1@xxxxxxxxx>]

good work.  i made a change that sends an xpl message after every
change in play mode (play, stop, pause, skip back/fwd)

when you skip back/fwd, it will send out an xpl message w/
status=stopped, the rest of the fields blank. then when the next track
queues up it will send a message w/ the correct info.  similarly for
pause & stop it will send out a message w/ status=stopped or
status=paused and the other fields (except power) blank.

let me know if that'll do & i'll upload it to my site.
