    1 = Welcome to Trac 0.12.3 = 
    21 
    3 Trac is a '''minimalistic''' approach to '''web-based''' management of 
    4 '''software projects'''. Its goal is to simplify effective tracking and handling of software issues, enhancements and overall progress. 
     2[[Image("http://www.mythtv.org/img/mythtv.png",align=center,100%)]] 
    53 
    6 All aspects of Trac have been designed with the single goal to  
    7 '''help developers write great software''' while '''staying out of the way''' 
    8 and imposing as little as possible on a team's established process and 
    9 culture. 
     4= Introduction = 
     5The MythTV media plugin is a [http://wiki.micasaverde.com/index.php/Luup_Plugins Luup component] that permits the Remote Control of MythTV Frontends (version 0.25 or later).

    11 As all Wiki pages, this page is editable, this means that you can 
    12 modify the contents of this page simply by using your 
    13 web-browser. Simply click on the "Edit this page" link at the bottom 
    14 of the page. WikiFormatting will give you a detailed description of 
    15 available Wiki formatting commands. 
     7= How does it work = 
    168 
    17 "[wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] ''yourenvdir'' initenv" created 
    18 a new Trac environment, containing a default set of wiki pages and some sample 
    19 data. This newly created environment also contains  
    20 [wiki:TracGuide documentation] to help you get started with your project. 
     9This Plug-in is able to control a MythTV Frontend using the [http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Services_API MythTV services API].  
    2110 
    22 You can use [wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] to configure 
    23 [http://trac.edgewall.org/ Trac] to better fit your project, especially in 
    24 regard to ''components'', ''versions'' and ''milestones''.  
     11Once connected, and configured, the plug-in sends HTTP commands to the receiver. If polling is enabled, it will also update and display the presently displayed media information in the dashboard.  
    2512 
    2613 
    27 TracGuide is a good place to start. 
     14Most remote commands are currently supported and its best used in conjunction with SQRemote to provide a more seamless experience.

    29 Enjoy! [[BR]]
