No results ?

Hi,

I'm trying to complete my tool by discovering xbmc jsonrpc service that is published via zeroconf.

Avahi-tools give me the correct output:

$ avahi-browse -a -d local
...
+ wlp2s0 IPv4 XBMC (raspbmc)                                _xbmc-events._udp    local
+ wlp2s0 IPv4 XBMC (raspbmc)                                _xbmc-jsonrpc-h._tcp local
+ wlp2s0 IPv4 XBMC (raspbmc)                                _xbmc-jsonrpc._tcp   local

But, taking your example in README, I've got no response...

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/armon/mdns"
)

func main() {

    entriesCh := make(chan *mdns.ServiceEntry, 4)
    go func() {
        for entry := range entriesCh {
            fmt.Printf("Got new entry: %v\n", entry)
        }
    }()

    // Start the lookup
    mdns.Lookup("_xbmc-jsonrpc._tcp", entriesCh)
    close(entriesCh)
}

What am I doing wrong ?

Thanks :)

EDIT:

It seems that I can only lookup services on localhost. I tried with "_workstation._tcp" and the program only return my current computer...

Yeah, maybe... I tried the dns command with some names that are returned by avahi-browse and I've got no response...
