Title: Streaming _from_ my iphone or other device?
Post by: vt100 on October 26, 2013, 10:27:21 pm

Hey all!

I'm new the JRiver and its features, and hoped that you would answer a question for me.

I'm interested in JRiver, but what's holding me back is the lack of pandora or spotify compatibility.  That said, if I were able to just use my Spotify app on my phone and stream it to the JRiver HTPC box, that would take care of what I'm trying to do.  Is that possible over WiFi?

If not, would it be possible to have a way to use the headphone output on the phone to input to the HTPC and let JRiver manage it?

Thanks!

Install an AirPlay receiver app on your htpc and your good to go. You can even reroute its output to jriver to take advantage of its dsp.

This one is free:

I'm lovin' shairport4w. Just learned about it a week ago. Unlike Reflector, shairport4w works great.
