Netbook as a Remote aka Tremote
davethe:
first post on the forums, other than some questions I will have just wanted to say what a great piece of software MC is. I was using WMP but it kept losing my album art which in retrospect was a good thing as it led me to find MJ. I was using the free player but was looking for a way to control a server remotely using another computer and suprise suprise discovered that the full version of MC has this built in! My current setup is kind of odd, I have a laptop hooked up to my DAC and amp which is the server, but accesses my flac music library on my PC over my home network, but it is my PC I'm using all the time from which I control the laptop (the there) :D
I would like to know if the following can be achieved and if so how to achieve them please:
when starting MC clientside can there:Zone be set as default?
can I create a library view clientside and have the server incorporate it automatically?
JimH:
1. Thanks!
2. You can start up in a zone with the MC Core Commands. Take a look at them on our [http://wiki.jrmediacenter.com/index.php/DevZone]DevZone[/url] page on the wiki. This might do what you want.
3. No.

Sorry... I missed this. Sure. PM away.

thanks for the super prompt reply JimH! The Core Commands should do what I need maybe using a batch file, thanks for the info. I also found the Ctrl-T shortcut and the fact that a zones button can be added to the interface, nice to have options :) thanks again

Should I understand the silence around this question as 'It's not decided yet'?
It'd be great if it was made possible. :)
