Installing Gizmote

1. Download and install the trial version of MC15(see above) on your PC. A network is required. This article on Network Access may be useful.

2. In MC Options for Media Network, turn on access to Library Server.

3. From your phone, visit "Market" and search for "Gizmote". Install the one from J River.

4. When you run Gizmote on your phone, you'll be asked for an access key. You can get it from Media Network options in MC. See picture below.

5. Once you enter the key, Gizmote will connect to J. River Media Center on your PC.

6. Hold the Enter Key down to emulate the Green Button that Media Center remotes use to display the main menu of MC's Theater View. Navigation afterward can be done with the arrow keys and enter to select.
