Hello,
I have an idea for a native ios 9.1 app for npvr, that will initially just control the frontend provided in the installer via web/json api, if it supports that. Also I would also like it to play streamed tv, and schedule recordings from your phone or ipad.

How should I start?

For controlling the UI, there is no API for this from the webserver. You'd probably need to talk to some process that could send fake keystrokes to the UI.

There is APIs for querying the recordings, scheduler etc.

Sub, I thought you had a hook that could connect webclient API to the running NextPVR instead of the "-webclient" instance.

The same mechanism used by the webclient could be used, but it's not currently hooked up to the main session. Not a lot of work, but would need some work to get it going. I'll look into enabling this for the next relelase.
