Being new to LinHES, I've been enjoying the supplemental web functions as they really make monitoring the LinHES network status a lot easier than what I was used to.
With the additional capabilities this adds, I thought it might be nice to have a Frontend Status page. The issue I run into is that I don't alway know when one of my frontends is watching a recorded program. I know I can get the status by using the Frontend status API:
Code:
http://mediaroom_sbe:6547/Frontend/GetStatus
but it sure would be nice to see all of it in a nice table format.
What I would envision is a simple table showing the status of each frontend, similar to the Encoder status page, something like:
Frontend StatusFrontend: "mbe" is "idle"
Frontend: "mbr_sbe" is "playing" "Lost"
Frontend: "gbr_sbe" is "paused" "playing" "Wipeout"
Frontend: "mediaroom_sbe" is "idle"
Does anyone else think this is a worthwhile feature?
