Can This Be Accomplished?

Post by crawdad63 »

Can I control MediaMonkey 5 from a different laptop than what my library is on while I cast that to my living room system.

Hi,
There should be a way to remotely access Original laptop using Http://<IP ADDRESS OF LAPTOP>:<MM SERVER PORT> but it is not yet fully implemented and compatibility is often influended with browser settings , latest patches and addons/plugins you use in browsers.

For now the safest route would be to Remotely connect to original laptop thru free remote app like http://anydesk.com and control it directly.
Best regards,

You can simply use MM5 as the control point on the laptop.
I.e. to cast the library from PC just access the PC's media server and cast the tracks to the receiver.

Alternativelly you can use phone as the control point (e.g. MMA)
