OCP without OCP

Hi,

I'm trying to sort out a quick and simple mechanism of getting now-playing data into our state server. We have a Redis server (lightweight key/value store) that lets us store state data in the studio and access it from our webserver. We use this for a whole bunch of information about the software and hardware states in the studio (mics on/off, red lights, silence detector alarms, that sort of thing, in combination with Nagios for monitoring it all).

We have an OCP license but I don't see much point in adding yet another thing to go wrong if I can avoid it - worked out that the port Myriad's inbuilt OCP thing is set up to use is 6901 (through to 6920) and did some poking. When setting up something to listen to this, I get:

NET_CONTROL_LOGON MV3LOCAL_INSANITYSTUDIO 2,1 InsanityStudio

And then nothing.

What do I need to send to get now/next data? I can parse whatever Myriad spits out, I'm just getting there's a login stanza I need to parrot at Myriad.

Cheers,
James

There is no encoder in Myriad.
