I asked a question about how to use JRemote to switch between using the Id's hard drive as the library and using the Id as a renderer for my main music server's library. I was told I should be able to use JRemote to select both the "source" and the "destination". When I asked how to do this, I was told I had to ask the question here, not in the Id board. So, again, how do I use JRemote to select both the source and the destination?

Have you read through the setup instructions? They are "pinned" threads at the top of this board.

Yes, I have.

With the remote, you first must connect to a server. That is done by using an Access Key (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=90505.0). Are you able to do that?
The Media Network (http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Media_Network) topic on our wiki may also be helpful.

Yes. J Remote is connected to three servers--my main library on a Mac Mini, a laptop that renders the Mac Mini's library, and the Id.
What I am looking to do is use JRemote to switch between using the Id's hard drive as the library source and using the Id as a player of my main library on the networked Mac Mini. I am able to do this by connecting the Id to a monitor, keyboard and mouse, and using the Id's GUI, but obviously that is not very convenient. Can I do this switch using JRemote?

I am trying to get the issue here:
Seems like you are asking for a way to switch the current library from the remote?
If so, this is currently not supported. However, it would be useful to add this capability to the web service.
I`ll see if this is something that can be added to MC20.

Thank you, Lespaul. It would indeed be very useful.
