OpenBroadcaster Remote2 Application

Re-factored and optimized for efficiency with a touch screen controller that runs on Mobile HTML5.

Headless remote acts as a client on server to create a source mount point on icecast2 media servers.

This allows installation, provisioning and deployment all from CLI not requiring a desktop.

Ver 4c1 (January 28, 2013)

Command Line operation of remote playout device

- "bash obremote" can be used to start the remote.

Will check for existing instances and not start if there is an instance found.

- “bash obremote_loop" will run obremote in an infinite loop

In case it shuts down/crashes or is shutdown via the http admin, restarts in loop

- obremote -h for help (command-line options).

- obremote -f or obremote --fullscreen for fullscreen on startup. (obremote_loop -f also works)

- Toggle fullscreen graphic mode on/off in the http admin.

Remote Playout Enhancements

- Fullscreen display cursor hides after 1 second of being in fullscreen, or 3 seconds after mouse move.

- Refinements in the remote settings UI -- you can browse/select folders instead of just typing in a path.

- Misc cleanup runaway script causing memory issue.

- Code improvements having to do with network stability.

By default, when the remote starts up, it now restores the last known schedule database into memory.

If the remote quits and comes back it will still have something to play.

Fallback Media Mode

Checks to see whether something is playing or about to play.

If nothing is playing and nothing is about to play, then play from the fallback media directory.

Fallback media directory items are played at random

All items will be played before any media items are played a second time.

Trigger fallback media to play. Remove default playlist no scheduled content, or the following:

1) start obremote with "./obremote -r"

2) immediately quit before it has a chance to sync

3) start obremote again but this time with just "./obremote"
