Hi Guys

Currently using my Andriod with jremote but I'm planning on getting a Microsoft Surface Pro 3 soon and would like to use this instead. Am I correct in saying JRemote won't work on the Surface Pro? I've had a look at the WebGizmo browser remote control but it's nowhere near as nice as jremote on the phone.

Thanks.

Why don't you just run a full MC client on the Surface Pro 3?

There are some plans to provide a remote on Windows 10, at some time.

Also, I think nMedium, which is a Windows Phone remote, announced recently that they would be developing a Windows 10 version of their software.

Yep, here: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=87522.msg689024#msg689024

I've got the media Server installed on a Hyper-V VM up in the office whilst in the living room I have an NUC running as the Renderer. I plan on adding another room soon and would like to control everything from the Surface Pro. I could get a wireless mouse and Keyboard and connect the NUC to the TV in the living room i Suppose but I'd rather not have to have the TV on.

I could get another tablet but I like the idea of doing away with my desktop PC upstairs and using the Surface Pro along with the docking station. I also really like the idea of using it to serve as desktop, laptop and tablet.

Please read the wiki topic on Tremote.

Great, this looks like what I'm after, thank you.

Sorry, I should have said; "Why don't you just run a full MC client on the Surface Pro 3 and use it to control the server and HTPC client, just like a remote control?"

Which is what Tremote is. I always forget to use that name.
