JRiver from my Tesla Model 3?
« on: December 24, 2018, 03:53:48 pm »

I have JRiver on my laptop at home, always connected.  What I would love is to have it DLNA streaming at highest quality to my Model 3, random shuffle of all songs is fine.  Is this easy to setup?  The Model 3 has a full web browser but not sure if it plays web audio?

Panel might work.  You would need to have open access to your server.  The wiki has a topic called Network Access.

Thanks... managed to configure my router so that my laptop is always at a fixed 192.168 internal address, enabled port forwarding to the panel port, setup a no-ip domain to track my routers ip, setup an access key for media server, etc. with auth username and password.  Verified JRemote works locally on my ipad using the access key, verified the domain ip works in the web browser panel.  So in theory i should be able to use the mmodel 3 web browser and hit it in my car but who knows if it will actually play the audio right?

Another question is my work laptop also has MC running but I don't want to copy my entire library files over to my work machine so is there a way to tell my work MC to act as a simple player for the exposed MC server running at home via the access code?  Not sure how to connect my work MC as just a dumb DLNA client of my home MC media server similar to how JRemote works?

Yes - that works fine.  On the work computer you set MC to remote library.

Thanks, where is the setting to setup a remote library with access code?

As a trial I tried adding a 'Remote' library from my home laptop MC and using the server I setup on the same laptop but with it's outside IP address and port and it does load but it says there are 0 files ?!  My iTunes and MusicBrainz libraries have thousands of songs so why isn't it finding them?  How do I tell the server which of the local libraries to serve?  When accessing this same server address from panel I can see and play all my songs.

If you selected "Library Server" on the "Add Library" dialog on your work laptop and entered the access key for your home Media Center laptop, it will connect to whatever library is currently loaded in Media Center running on your home laptop.

ok that works however every time I relaunch MC at work it first tries to access the remote library but via home local network ip address (192.168....) instead of the external address.  Eventually it does connect with the right address but is there a way to have it not first try a local address which clearly won't work at work.

On the server go to Options/Media Network/Advanced/Interfaces To Ignore
Put in there addresses you don't want MC to associate with the media access key.
