I wrote a simple python program to play and pause banshee music player.
While its working on my own machine, I have trouble doing it to a remote computer, connected to the same router (LAN).
I edited the session.conf of the remote machine, to add this line:
Code:
<listen>tcp:host=localhost,port=12434</listen>
and here is my program:
Code:
import dbus
bus_obj=dbus.bus.BusConnection("tcp:host=localhost,port=12434")
proxy_object=bus_obj.get_object('org.bansheeproject.Banshee',
'/org/bansheeproject/Banshee/PlayerEngine')
playerengine_iface=dbus.Interface(proxy_object,
dbus_interface='org.bansheeproject.Banshee.PlayerEngine')
var=raw_input("\nPress\n1 to play\n2 to pause\n3 to exit\n")
while (var!="3"):
var=raw_input("\nPress\n1 to play\n2 to pause\n3 to exit\n")
if var=="1":
print "playing..."
playerengine_iface.Play()
elif var=="2":
print "pausing"
playerengine_iface.Pause()
This is what i get when i try to execute it
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "dbus3.py", line 4, in <module>
bus_obj=dbus.bus.BusConnection("tcp:host=localhost,port=12434")
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 125, in __new__
bus = cls._new_for_bus(address_or_type, mainloop=mainloop)
dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoServer: Failed to connect to socket "localhost:12434" Connection refused
What am I doing wrong here?
should i edit /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/bus.py
