sagex-api Extender Clients
I've received some reports that my application does not work with Media Extenders such as the HD300. As I do not have a SageTV Extender and don't plan on buying one just to test my app I was wondering if anyone who has the sagex-api on their server and an Extender could send me the output of the GetConnectedClients command while the Extender is connected to the SageTV Server. All you have to do is go to "http://<server address>:<port>/sagex/api?c=GetConnectedClients" while the Extender is connected and post the output in a reply.

Example: This is what I get with a Software Client connected.
Code:
<Result size="1">
<Item>/192.168.0.28:49163</Item>
</Result>

The GetConnectedClients only works for software clients, you are not going to get the list of extenders with it...

So is it possible to send a command to an extender through the sagex-api?

Sure, but you'll need to grab its UIcontext some other way...

I can't seem to find any other way in the API to get the UIContext of the active connected clients. I tried GetUIContextNames but that just comes back empty even though I have a client connected.

I'm pretty sure GetUIContextNames is the correct API to return the extenders that are connected.

Guess it only works extenders. Does it return in the same format "/<ip>:<port>"? Is there a way to emulate an extender without actually having one for testing?

Use Placeshifter.
