Some media sources (e.g., DAAP) support notifying a client that a password
is required at connection time. Since such sources are commonly detected
with protocols like DNS-SD, Grilo needs a mechanism to support handling
these password requests.
I have written series of patches to add a new
"grl_source_notify_authenticate" function which plugins can call when a
password is needed. The function, in turn, emits an "authenticate" signal
which the application should respond to by obtaining a password. The
application then provides the password back to the plugin by calling
the new "grl_daap_source_continue_with_password" function.
My patches are available at:
