Thanks Todd!

This should be part of VortexBox's install routine or "possibly" have Bliss install check to see if it installing on VortexBox (if exists /opt/vortexbox?)

Anyway It is very simple to add your own service.
edit /var/www/html/libs/vortexbox_defs.php
locate the section that starts with "$baseservices = array"

copy the lines with sqeezboxserver.service to duplicate them before vortexbox player (the "<-->" are tabs) change "squeezeboxserver.service" to "bliss.service" and "Logitech Media Server" to "Bliss Service" as below.

<------>"bliss.service"><------><------><------>=> array ( <--->"Name" => "Bliss Service",
<------><------><------><------><------><------><------><------><------>"Status" => "Unknown",
<------><------><------><------><------><------><------><------>),

This allows vortexbox' routines to manage Bliss via systemctl start|stop|status bliss.service and displays the status like the other services.

Thanks for letting me know. I'll leave this open; theoretically this could be added.

Could you paste the entry in your service manager php file?

Hi Dan,

Just wanted to let you know that I finally got around to updating the service manager php page and it works a treat. Thanks for the pointer.

Thanks Dan, I'll give that a go.

Thanks. This looks fairly simple to do manually - it's documented here: http://info.vortexbox.org/tiki-index.php?page=servicemanager

Doing it automatically upon install might be a bit more scary. It would be easier if there was a separate conf file for these items that could just be appended to.
