Like many here, i run the whole suite... except for Transmission and Headphones. I was just wondering whether or not each of those applications are running their own little instances of web servers?

I run

  • XBMC
  • CouchPotato
  • sabNZBD
  • SickBeard

I know each are running on their own port but what is the service behind those ports and does it mean there are 4 little web servers that I am running ? If so could they be integrated to run on top of lightHTTPd ?
 
Unless you want to recode each project I doubt it.

Guessing they run lightweight Apache instances.

Actually come to think of it SB runs on Cherry Py, maybe the others do too. Being made by different devs I figure each one probably does their own thing.

But they are so lightweight I doubt you'll gain anything in reality.
 
Was actually looking at doing something similar.. Wanted a front end to reside on my firewall site which I can monitor various services running on different vms.
 
Take another look at headphones mate, that's all I'll add to this.
(You need a VIP for it to work though as musicbrainz block scrapers - but it's $10 for a lifetime VIP account, and has it's own musicbrains mirror you use instead, and even includes an indexer as well)
