Hi i’m working on a 3rd party plex music client (OSX). I want to listen to music streamed from my plex server while working. I already am wrapping the HTTP api into a library for cocoa, and i’ve got my app structure sorted out.  
  
  
  
But is there also an API or documentation available to:

- register my app as a plex client on a certain port  
- what i need to implement to receive navigation, play commands (when listening to port ???, what commands can I expect)  
  
  
  
Edit: ok it’s late and didn’t see this post [http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/topic/56934-register-client-as-plex-player/](http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/topic/56934-register-client-as-plex-player/)  
  
But still would like to know if there is any documentation about this…
