I want to request a new improvement for the LMS CLI: A door bell functionality.

I know this feature from a friends CasaTunes installation.

the CLI should implement:
- a doorbell command for a single or all players
- a "do not disturb" (DND) bit per player, also possible to set/unset for all players.

In the case the doorbell command is triggered:
- Players that are turn off, get turned on
- The current playlist is backuped 
- A specified ring tone is played
- the last state of the player is restored (playlist, on/off, play/stop...)
- If the DND is on, none of the actions is triggered for that player.

The doorbell command should have a default ringtone (to set in the configuration), possibly also a second choice. 
Additionally it should accept a file or library location for individual sounds.

Example commands:
<player> dnd
Returnes the DND status
<player> dnd on
Enables DND for the specific player
dnd on
Enables DND for all players
doorbell
Plays the doorbell on all players
<player> doorbell /tmp/sounds/alarm.mp3
Plays the specified sound on the specified player

Sounds like a great idea for a 3rd party plugin. But is not going to happen in the main code. You'd rather join the community at http://forums.slimdevices.com. There's a group for 3rd party software extensions.
