WebPlay provides streaming from Media Center to a cell phone or similar device. It works with Android and iOS devices, and any other computing device that provides a modern standards-based browser.

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.

WebPlay 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.

Examples of links used to start WebPlay:

http://192.168.0.100:52199

or

http://dog.jriver.com:52199

Your router may need to be configured to allow the port (52199 in the examples above). Your firewall must also allow the port to be used. Please see Network Access for more information.

If you have questions, or need more information, please see this thread on Interact.
