Hijack v478 is now available.

New in this version is the long awaited "get current running order" interface for Mark Cushman's empeg party interface stuff.
  • Retrieve the current running order, in the form of a playlist, from the web interface using FID=001&EXT=.xml Note that the leading zeros are *required*, and that this feature only works currently with .xml output, not regular .html (I should fix this someday).

  • For any playlist, one can now specify a limit to the number of items returned, using &COUNT=10 for example (or any positive integer; zero means "return everything").

  • Also for any playlist, a starting offset can be specified, to skip over the first few entries, using &OFFSET=5 for example.

  • The .xml output for FID=001 also sets two additional variables at the top: runOrderLen="nnn" and playListLen="nnn", both based upon the values of the same names, as retrieved from the running order area of the dynamic data paritition.

I have also noticed that the stored "current running order" is not always updated on disk immediately, particularly (or possibly only) when the player is paused.

Enjoy!
