About Deejayd

Deejayd is a media player daemon (like  MPD or  XMMS2).

It is written in  Python and based on  Twisted for networking and  GStreamer or  Xine for multimedia playback.

Deejayd uses its own protocol consisting in the exchange of messages using JSON-RPC protocol. See the Clients page to get a list of software explicitely written to use this new protocol. This page explains why we choose to write a new media player daemon.
