== Abstract  ==

The primary aim of this project is to improve upon the luahttp interface and to add functions which are currently missing in the luahttp interface as compared to the qt interface.
An additional aim is to redesign the http frontend and to create a lightweight http frontend for mobile devices.

== Tentative list of improvements ==

    get the album art working
    enable playlist re-ordering
    enable access to the graphical equaliser 
    speed control
    subtitle delay control
    audio delay control
    enable selection of a subtitle file (by path)
    add 'unminimise' command to the fullscreen command
    add ability to control picture controls (brightness, contrast, etc)
    implement pl_delete on luahttp
    allow user to get drives list on windows

== Suggestions for possible incorporation ==

-I'm adding this section as a place to store ideas that we might incorporate into the project, but which are still at the discussion stage.

* create status.json and playlist.json
* update web interface pages to request and use json requests
