[Rhythmbox-devel] DACP (iTunes remote) support added

[Jonathan Matthew <jonathan d14n org>]

I've just committed Alexandre Rosenfeld's work on adding DACP support,
after I finally got around to borrowing an iPhone from a friend to
test it out a bit. Apparently it won't work with iTunes remote 2.0,
but that's a fight for another day.

If you'd like to test this out, you'll need a recent version of
libdmapsharing (I'd suggest building it from git master, as there are
likely to be bug fixes for this) and libsoup 2.32.x in addition to the
usual dependencies. If you were using a previous version of the code,
I should note that I changed the gconf key used to store the list of
paired devices, so you'll need to either re-pair, or update gconf
manually (/apps/rhythmbox/sharing/known-remotes ->
/apps/rhythmbox/plugins/daap/known-remotes).

Thanks to Alexandre for working on this, and to Mike Petullo for
mentoring him and helping out with the code, and of course to the
Google Summer of Code people.
