Remote Control
From Muso wiki
Remote control for mobile devices
Overview
- Server runs on port 5555 (configurable), intended for mobile device (rather than ipad, though ipad is a future option)
- NB. Might have to configure your firewall to open the specified port. For windows firewall see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/open-a-port-in-windows-firewall.
- Can browse & play full albums, artists/composers, tags, genres etc via web interface.
- Defaults to same player as Muso but can be switched independently
- Muso must remain open on windows to act as server
- Muso must be run in Administrator Mode (OS level configuration)
- As Beta functionality it may disappear in later versions if not viable/stable
Step by Step Instructions
- Start the Server via this button on the toolbar
- Server endpoint is opened by Muso and URL shown next to toolbar button
- Click on the URL to test that it opens in your local browser.
- Browse to the same URL on your mobile device connected to the same LAN. Trouble-shooting:
- If the page doesn't open the remote, try it without the .local part of the URL, i.e. http://jeremyb5440:5555/
- If your Muso host is behind a firewall, you may have to configure a rule to open up the specific port used.
