If you have firefox or explorer, or a browser capable of displaying xml without a dtd (NOT safari), then you could also do something like:


http://server:port/databases/1/containers?output=xml

then you’d see all your playlists, including the dmap.itemid of a playlist you wanted to inspect. Say the dmap.itemid was 307. To see what files are on that playlist, do:


http://server:port/databases/1/containers/307/items?output=xml

and you’ll have a list of all your items, probably just with itemkind, itemid, and itemname. To see more interesting stuff, try something like this:


http://server:port/databases/1/containers/307/items?output=xml&meta=daap.songartist,daap.songalbum,dmap.itemid,dmap.itemname

See, wouldn’t a nice ajaxian front-end on the web server be cool?

sigh.
