Good morning,
I am connected on UDP port 9777 for xbmc, how to start my connection? What the HELO command?

kraqh3d · 2008-08-13, 17:59

that's the event server. you need the details of the protocol to know what to send it.

With the simple client chat UDP it is possible test the 9777 port ?

i'm not sure what you're asking when you use the word "chat", but yes you need an event client that sends commands to xbmc's event server.

ok I have a chat software in client CHAT UDP, I connect on port 9777 on XBMC but what are commands to send? you have some examples?

Ok thank you, but I do not understand the first step HELO, how is it built this command?
Helo is well identify my entry on port 9777?

im not sure if theres an official posted protocol spec. try searching the manual. but, its just a guess that the HELO needs to be responded with a HELO. (that's how most other protocols work.)

you can look here for the packet definitions:
http://trac.xbmc.org/browser/branches/li...ntPacket.h

and examples are in the tools\eventclients.

if there's no official documentation, would you mind putting it together while your working on your app?

you are most likely not sending a correct packet to the event server, hence the "invalid packet" messages. have you tried the example files?
