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

3. From a web browser on the Android phone, connect to MC's Library Server on the PC where you installed it. Example command:

http://192.168.0.10:52199 (IP address and port on the server PC) Once it is working, add the link as a bookmark on your phone.

4. Under WebPlay in the browser app, install the Android Gizmo app. (If you already installed from the Android Market, you may need to update).

5. Select content to play from WebPlay, a browser app you'll find on the phone when you do step 3 above.
