Title: Can one jremote device control another jremote device?
Post by: markl on October 24, 2015, 09:02:49 pm

Setup I currently have is JRiver 20 running on a server (Windows 8.1) in an office at the front of the house which streams to an iPad running JRemote connected to the stereo system at the back of the house (using the 'this device' zone option on the iPad).  I also have JRemote on my Iphone and want the ability to control what is playing on the stereo from my iPhone - so I am not tied to the iPad.  Is that possible?  I can set the zone on the iPhone JRemote to 'player' or 'this device' - but not sure how to control what is playing through the iPad/stereo.  Probably missing something really obvious here - any help much appreciated!

It's not possible at this time. 

Read about DLNA on our wiki.  What you would need is a DLNA Renderer instead of JRemote.  Maybe they exist on iOS.  A small computer running our software would also work.

Thanks Jim.  Going to take your advice and find an old laptop/desktop that I can set up as client running MC to replace the iPad - and then control it from the iPhone that way.
