This is a feature in Omnia.9 by leif, A web service (HTTP Server) which user or another program can modify settings in the processor itself.
Stereo Tool already has the "Web Interface" feature which is aimed for a human use, but if another program (playout, etc) wants to change the settings (preset, input device, etc.) inside stereo tool, it can't.
The Poll STS option isn't really good when modifying settings from another network (example: from studio to transmitter where ST is hosted)

Here is a web service from the Omnia.9

Please consider adding this feature to ST, And thanks for making this absolutely amazing software. :)

+1 :!:

Another thing I would add is the ability to get meters values as well.

I have a small LCD screen (just 2 rows of characters) in the front of my computer in the 5.25" bay and that would be great if I can just show some meters on it. Getting meters values from an HTTP web service would be a good workaround in order to get those values properly.

How does protection work? So how do you make sure that someone outside cannot access your settings? This should be easy enough to add (including the metering, in fact most of the meters work in the current web interface).

You can white list IPs that can have access to it.

In the O9 settings you can add the "IP/Subnet Mask" of the machines allowed to change/view the processor settings via HTTP, though I would suggest that you also add a password protection (HTTP Authentication Headers?) to it since maybe someone that has access to these machines can remotely modify the settings.

I think whitelisting IP is the best and easiest solution to implement. Using authentication over unsecured HTTP server isn't always a good idea (it's fairly easy to snoop HTTP communication).

Ah! This is a good idea, I can use it also for the normal web access.

So... Say we have
192.168.100.0/24

Then if the IP address & 255.255.255.0 equal 192.168.100.0 & 255.255.255.0, I'm good.

That's shouldn't be too difficult to add :)

I coded something quick to see if it was possible to do with my LCD Screen. Works pretty good. (You can see it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWEaGu6Y598)

Of course, it's not super fast, it's not meant to be. Just a cool display. It refreshes only once per second.

For now, it's all randomized fake values until I can properly get meters values (hopefully in 0-100% :P). It uses a simple Ruby script (gets values, encode it and send it to:) + a software called LCD Smartie (pretty much work with any LCD screen).
