Ok, so I have a library server, and 3 PCs running as clients. I also have JRemote, and a media player. All of these seem to run fine in "standalone mode". eg. the Client PCs can see the Library server and will play files locally, JRemote can see the server and will play files locally (ie. from the Ipad). the Media Player, can see the DLNA service from the Library Server, and will play files.
But I thought that I could do more. For example, use JRemote to play files on the PC's or on the Media Player. On when I'm on the Library Server, play files anywhere else on the network. From what I've read, and from questions I've asked before, I'm expecting the devices to appear in the Playing Now table. So for example, I'm sitting here, with the Libray Server running, this PC running as a client, and JRemote on an ipad next to me. On JRemote, in the Zones box, all I have is "This Device" and "Player". Player seems to be the Library Server, but where is the other PC (the one I'm typing on....)
On this PC, if I switch to "There", I can control what is playing on the Library server, but not the other way around.
So putting it another way, i can remotely control (from a client PC, from JRemote etc) what is playing on the Library Server, which is the only device on the network which doesnt have speakers........
So, am I expecting too much, or am I doing something stupid
