The find and replace features that I will use can be straightforward or very sophisticated - basically they use the regular expression pattern matching code that is built into php.
Concerning your next point, I will take a look at what is involved. I agree it makes sense to pick up the error code, if any, when trying to retrieve a file, and respond appropriately. I suspect that it's straightforward when using the cURL module to access files.
As an aside, I'm wondering if this may be why some people have difficulties with the LDM jukebox from remote sites. At least, the windows media player plugin sends two or three separate requests to the server, depending on which browser is being used. It doesn't bother reading the full file each time - just picks up the headers and first bytes - but this may be why it hangs on the remote server but not on a local server.

This means we could have different versions of one file?
Maybe i can add different sizes for my wallpapers?
