Default WinLIRC auto start

Hello!

I did some testing and found out:
- if BSPlayer is started before WinLIRC, remote controling does not work.
- if WinLIRC is started before BSPlayer, everything works fine.

From that I conclude that BSPlayer only tries to connect to WinLIRC server (127.0.0.1:8765) at startup.

I din't like the fact that I have to run WinLIRC manualy before starting BSPlayer. I use WinLIRC only with BSPlayer. So, I wrote a simple plugin that starts the WinLIRC when plugin loads and closes WinLIRC when plugin unloads (BSPlayer closes). But unfortunately it didn't work. I suppose that BSPlayer tries to connect to WinLIRC server before it loads plugins.

Possible solutions:
1. Is there a way to tell BSPlayer to try to recconnect to WinLIRC server? Something like message bsp_ver = SendMessage(bsp_hand,WM_BSP_CMD,BSP_LIRC_Reconnect ,0); ?
2. Configure BSplayer somehow to load plugins before WinLIRC connecting.

Number 1. would be absolute winner! Please help me solve the situation.

Regards,
Rostfrei
