I’m so excited for this I just can’t help but ask… where is the API and how do I get started? I wanna creat a media filter for video, music, and audiobook playback. Is there an API to work on this? ---

Is there an API to work on this? Maybe you can use an HTTP proxy or sniffer to intercept the API calls and document them? Given the size and functionality of the app, there shouldn’t be too many. ---

We hope to have API documentation up “before long” but in the meantime, looking at the server log file should give pretty obvious indications of the endpoints. Not entirely sure I understand what “a media filter for video, music, and audiobook playback” means in this context, though. ---
