pyeventdistr's Issues

Unicode encode errors when sending packets

For example when using ./mpris2-nowplaying.py:

Now Playing: Bajofondo - Pulmón
ERROR:dbus.connection:Exception in handler for D-Bus signal:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 230, in maybe_handle_message
    self._handler(*args, **kwargs)
  File "./mpris2-nowplaying.py", line 20, in propChangedCallback
    eventdistr.now_playing(artist, title, area)
  File "/home/rohieb/Projects/pyEventdistr/eventdistr.py", line 54, in now_playing
    send_event(EVENT_NOW_PLAYING, "%s\x00%s\x00%s" % (area, artist, title))
  File "/home/rohieb/Projects/pyEventdistr/eventdistr.py", line 32, in send_event
    EVENTDISTR_PORT))
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf3' in position 40: ordinal not in range(128)

add support for NowPlaying null packets

…to be sent when playing of a song stops or the playlist ends.
