WebPlay

Overview

WebPlay provides streaming from Media Center to a cell phone or similar device. It works with Android and iPhone (or Touch). WinMo is coming.

WebPlay was introduced in MC15. 15.0.49 or above will provide a graphical look for our Gizmo application on Android. Run Webplay on the phone, install Gizmo, then return to Webplay to select music.

Instructions

DLNA must be activated in MC. This is set in Tools/Options/Network.

It is started by running a browser on the phone and connecting to the IP address and port of MC. A test from the same PC, using a browser may also be useful.

Example of a link:

192.168.0.100:52199

or

dog.jriver.com:52199

The router must be configured to allow the port (52199 in the examples above). The firewall must also allow the port to be used.
