Thank you for trying to help.

Regarding the FooBar audio player, this is not absolutely THE player I have to use. If you find it easier to support another audioplayer - it is fine by me. I only need it to be able to play FLAC files.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dody:
Thanks!

i am so sorry to keep asking, but how to know the port number? as my router is not there
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
If im right in thinking the port number does not matter as such. As long as the client and server has the same port => know how to commuinicate, then it will work

Also since you dont have a router you dont have the problem i had for a while.

Why is it not working.......NO OPEN PORT ON ROUTER. Once i opened the port I got it working but now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
Yayy!! Chris is thinking right :D

You might just have to open the port on your firewall on the pc.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 2LoWw7:
Great concept and application!!! Will this work w/ Winamp??
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dody:
Thanks Guys! gonna test and report back
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
I used to have an iPaq rx3115 that came preloaded with HPs mobile media - it sounds like exactly what you are trying to accomplish (to include streaming media), and I thought a look at it might help you out.

I don't know that it was ever removed from the ipaq by anyone - and i still have the ipaq (cracked screen), and I'm willing to try (get some pda-video-on-pc software maybe) to get files of the ipaq if needed - this program was a great way to listen to your whole music collection back when i had a 1gb sd, on a device that didn't even support sdhc.

Also, if you use a media pc, although it can't control media center (although other promising apps for that) it was a great stereo control.

Sadly, Nevo makes nothing but remotes now, though perhaps ther build files are available somewhere...

Good hunting

Does it work with PS3?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
No, not yet at least, but that would be pretty cool if it did!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mo.ammi:
I really hope you keep developing this great program.

I see allot of potential in it!

I'm not a programmer by all means, but is there a possibility you could manually select what each button does.

That way we could assign shortcut buttons to our favorite player and you wouldn't have to worry about programming for each individual player.

For instance I have assigned space bar to pause on VLC player,

would be great if the pause/play button acted as a space.

Thanks for your hard work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fasjoifas:
I keep getting error messages when a click in any button on the client :/

Using in WM 6.1 Professional
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] josh90265:
Jus had a question...

I am able to control my laptop perfectly, which is connected to my wireless router. But the problem is, I have a desktop sharing the laptop's wireless connection via ethernet cable connected to the laptop. Any advice connecting to the desktop? I was having some trouble.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Whosdaman:
If someone gets it to work with the PS3 I'll advertise it for sure!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
whats the error message as im sure that would be alot more useful for Freckle so he can actually solve the problem. Even a little more info on how the error occurs always good...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 2LoWw7:
Piggy back!! Xbox 360 Would be nice too!!! :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
much harder as the xbox uses IR whereas the PS3 uses Bluetooth to work... So me thinks its unlikely
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mo.ammi:
If you could update the user interface a bit,

I think it'll become a very popular app.

Hope you keep updating, I love your app!

Thanks,
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
E-mail notifications have failed to tell me there were replies.

Therefor some answers:

Thanks for the compliment. It's a very good idea and yes I will program that!

Make sure you enter the right IP on the "Settings" tab.

Wow... That certainly does give me ideas. Thanks mate!

Sorry to everyone who's waiting for the next version!

I'm currently very busy with school and work like I said.

Updates will not happen anytime soon, during the summer holidays there will be a huge update where I will do the following:

*Way better User-Interface

*More media players supported

*Programmable buttons

*Hopefully Bluetooth

*Hopefully Windows Media Center/VLC/etc. support.

*More different types of media.

*Attempting to get a stream working so you can stream your music onto your device.

*Shuffle playlist

*And a lot of other stuff!!!

Thank you so much for appreciating my work!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
Sounds good esp if you can get the media streaming working, will be pretty cool!

As for bluetooth it drains the battery and is pointless addition, in my opinion anyway. But then again if its more for the challenge then i can understand and agree :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] asteed:
Just want you to know that this app is awesome. I have my computer hooked up to my surround sound for inside/outside. So now when I am out back by the pool I flip my speakers on and use your app to control the music.

I sent you a donation on this thing. Thanks for the great work and great app. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
I'm not doing this for the challenge, I'm doing this for you!

Thank you so much!!

I really am happy to hear that you enjoy my application.

Have fun!

(added you to the donation list)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mo.ammi:
i had a similar application on my Nokia N82.

It costed a few bucks but it worked great,

the only downside was that it needed a BT or a wifi connection.

I really love this app and I'll soon be donating.

I can live with this basic interface as it suits my needs.

Good luck with your study, at least I can study in the garden while controlling my music from there.

also, an idea:

have different profiles which also saves the ip,

for instance when i'm at my girlfriend's place i can control hers without entering her ip everytime.

I love this app,

did I already say that?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
Thanks for the idea!

So is my application better then the one you had on the N82? :p

Anyway, I love you response.

And I'll do my best on school, I'm not studying yet. Right now my grades for school aren't too good and I don't want to miss my remove :(

I love your response!

Did I already say that?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] -Jonny-:
not quite the same, but I'm using this to control my PC

www.t2remotetouch.com

I hope this is useful, I don't want to take away - but to add choices for people. I've found it useful because I can actaully see my PC screen.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
It's ok that you try to give people more choice.

My personal preference is using light weight apps. I don't want to be able to see my PCs screen just because I think that's going a bit too far.

However, my app is free :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ruclip:

You're welcome,

I'll see what I can do ;)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Blowfish64:
Works on Acer M900.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
Ok, make sure you entered your IP address in the settings tab on your mobile.

Make sure the ports are open on your firewall and router (if you have one).

If that doesn't work, please tell me what the error says (I just need a small part of the error)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
Thank you!!! I added the device to the list :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wallywallyv:
Great program works great on my diamond with windows 7, crashed sometimes but nothing big. Seems to not show more than a couple hundred songs, so i just made a few playlist.

Is there a way you could add the ability to shuffle song order when playing from the client? I know i could just shuffle the order in my playlist, but it is nice having them in order on the songs tab on my phone.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
I'll put it on the wishlist :D

Thank you very much!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
I just made a huge improvement in the delay.

It will be applied in the upcoming big release.

Follow me on Twitter to get updated on the latest improvements.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dynomite232:
got any screen shots of ur new update
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
PS: This is taken straight from visual studio so ignore the borders and stuff.

Also going to release a WVGA version
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dynomite232:
thanx for ur response great looking update wow wo :)weewa
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] modulusman:
Trying it on my fuze... WM6.5... Running Chrome...

Every button I press just locks it up... I can close it.. however I have to soft-reset to get the program to open again. I've tried both IP's... The one listed on my computer, and the one listed on the ipfinder site... Both yield the same result...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
I wouldn't have a clue what it could be.

When you click a button the program just initializes the GPRS Connection and starts connecting to the Server.

Whenever the program can't find the server it will give you an error. Same thing when it can't get the GPRS Connection..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
I found a way to control VLC :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mrono:
Did you open the port on your router and firewall and click enable on the server?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] modulusman:
No errors... just.. well... nothing....

Si... It was set at 8000... I just left it... and created an exception in my firewall...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dynomite232:
wow have to give it a try nice going man
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
woop woop bring on the great work!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deedub972:
Something that may help

You may want to look at using the IDE from ZHMICRO to do this project. It has the client server tools you need and works with different desktop and mobile OS's.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tonyriceroni:
Oh my god i love you. I got this to work with my LAN(i can use it anywhere in my house! lol) and its freakin awesome thank you so much.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
Thanks for the tip! But I'll keep it as it is right now as it's all working perfectly.

I love you 2 xD

Then there's nothing I can help you with as I do not own the device you have and there is absolutely no error. I could debug with you but that would take quite some time and probably result in no solution.

The good news:

I just finished FULL support for VLC.

That means being able to select a song in the VLC playlist and view the currently playing song with your mobile device.

It's all done via the built-in HTTP server of VLC.

You do not have to open another port, the HTTP runs on 8080 and will only have to be accessed by dRemote Server so it will be local access so you don't have to open ports on the router or firewall. You still have to keep 8000 open for dRemote server though.

I made a lot of stuff more finger friendly and receiving the songs of the playlist in VLC is way quicker than dRemote's built-in.

I will release the newest version soon!!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] -Tk-:
YAAAAAAY GOT IT WORKING, damn portforwarding :p

I had to use local IP instead of my real IP adress.

Some notes:

- I can't download a playlist from WMP, only from the dPlayer, can I see the songs playing in WMP in the app?

- Can the playlist use "Artist - Title" instead of the file name?

- When, somehow, I have a duplicate song in the playlist it will play the next song when I select the duplicate file

- A scroll bar for skipping parts of a track/volume would be nice!

- Whenever the app crashes it takes a couple of minutes before I can start it again (or it doesn't load at all)

- Can you make it possible the app remembers which media player it should control, instead of using dPlayer as its default?

So demanding;)

oh and:

- IT WORKS ON TOUCH DIAMOND 2!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
The only media players that currently show the playlists and songs are the built-in media player and in the upcoming release also VLC media player.

The artist - title thing would be great however not every song has the ID3 tags correctly so it would be rather annoying, I guess you just have to sort out yer filenames...

Could you be a bit more specific and give me a playlist that could recreate that?

Scroll bar is a great idea, I'll make it during summer holidays.

How would the app crash, if there are any crashes please tell me how it crashes so I can make sure it doesn't crash :D

Yep, I'll add profiles in summer holidays.

Thanks, added the device to the list :D

Oh shiz, just noticed you're a dutchy!!! wooo!!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
Really?? as far as i know (may be very little) that if the tag information shows up in itunes/media player then doesn't it exisit in the tags? or is that songs use different ID3 versions thus hard to make it work it?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
I think iTunes is very intelligent when it comes to this.

But I'll look into it
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
actually i know what you mean at one point changed data in itunes and it wasnt written to the tags in the files...

But if its possible it will always be a bonus, in some ways though i would like more media players added in so that it can be widely used.

Also I thought of another program today that it should be compatable with as I dont actually use itunes or media player, but have moved onto using songbird. It may still be early in development but it does all the jobs and is a great replacement for anyone who liked itunes as well. It may be easy to work with as its open source and therefore will have a good community to help with any questions I would guess.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
Thanks, I'll give it a shot!

V0.4 review

hey every one just tested the latest version from our good pal Freckle V0.4

short review: reinstaled the newer version on my diamond the ip settings were still there ;) V0.4 remote button finger friendly colorfull , very easy to use , playlist faster response, extra media player added(vlc) like he promised

nothing about blutooth in there just yet

bugs to be possibly discoverd havent came across any but we'll see

comparing v0.3.3 not like it had any problems but this v0.4 is pretty damn handy response time way faster can shuffle playlist
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] -Tk-:
What I meant by crashing was not responding when it has no connection. It will take half a minute before an error screens shows up and I can't click anything else, you could make an error note in the screen where it says "server says: play wmp was executed" and make it something like "no response from server" instead of getting the error screen.

When I tried to play a song but had no connection (forgot) and I closed the program, it doesn't show up in task manager, so I can't close it properly and when I try to restart it doesn't and then the program pops up again showing me the error :p
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
I have actually already changed this in the newest version which is being released this weekend :D

FAQ

A list of known bugs and "issues":

Frequently Asked Questions:

Why doesn't it work for Windows Media Player Classic?

Did you follow the procedure?

Why doesn't it work for VLC Media Player?

Did you follow the procedure?

Why does the Now Playing for VLC take so long?

It depends on what song is playing, if the song is number 120 in the playlist, it has to go through all the previous 120 songs before it reached the currently playing one.

The server sometimes says pongpong, why?

I just noticed, nothing to worry about though ;)

I'll get rid of it the next time I update.

I have a playlist in windows media player but it's not showing, why is that?

It only takes playlists from the built-in media player or VLC.

How do I create another profile?

Simply save the profile using a different name.

However the profile "Default" will always be default, you can't

set another profile to default.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] -Tk-:
Waiting for the update, my computer crashed, and now I can't try it out! :( Improvements look nice though! I'll check it out ASAP!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
Thanks mate!

Too bad ur pc crashed :S

I won't give you my ip and port though!!!! :P
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
Really annoyed now as im at home rather than uni i cannot get it to work as my stupid cheap router (which was free) wont actual open the port even though i have set it up to work! GRRR! I hate it when stuff doesnt work!

Anyone else with the new sky bb routers fancy giving me a hand?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
So the port is open (UDP+TCP) and it refers to your internal ip assigned by the router correct?

You also have the ports open on firewall?

http://www.canyouseeme.org <--- easy test
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
Yeh i have checked on that site and it wasnt working....

I took another look at the router pages and needed to set up a 'rule' in the firewall to get it to work! Why do they have to make life more complicated lol

Anyway now i can use im liking the speed improvements :D

And support for vlc

Now i have a little request/bonus for the system.

When you click next it selects it the writes the name of the new song to the screen, cant see that it will be hard to do as you already have the feature to fecth it. Even better would be to put it in the box above that is meant for playlists...

Also on QVGA there is a slight graphics overlap issue where they are hidden under the box (not a BIG problem though). (see pic)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
I can see it screws up on QVGA, but that's normal as it's made for VGA.

I'll add your request to the wishlist :D

Thank you very much for using my app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
I would like to know if anyone has experienced any crashes or bugs that have to be resolved?

I also updated the FAQ a bit.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chris10230:
Found a bug...

In the vlc part if your ip changes then you have to disable and re-enable the http interface in vlc to get it to work again. Is there a better way to refresh the ip for vlc other than this?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
Streaming music from your computer to your device will be possible in the next version :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] asteed:
wow. that will be awesome. do you have an eta on the new versoin?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
Probably within the next 48 hours.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dynomite232:
hey freckle hope all is well with you and you're app is the greatest tried it on a diamond 2 the other day worked nice just saying thanx again :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
Thanks man, sorry for not finishing the streaming music.

It's not working as I want it to work.

I've also been working on other stuff.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 88cavalierz24:
pretty cool, got it running on my mogul and the controls are pretty fast considered its over the internet. I also dont see much use but its pretty fun and if i ever want to listen to music away from the pc and change it from around the house. Good job!!!! streaming would be pretty cool, or even have the option to actually get the song from your computer to download onto your phone. You know there are those situations where "oh damn i have that on my pc at home but not on my phone dammit" lol.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
Yes I've had one of those situations where I could shoot myself for not having it on my phone.

I really hope I can figure out a stream :S
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
Hi to Everyone!

I've a problem.. when i try to extract the zip archivie with server program with winrar its says is been corrupted.. :confused:

Great app! I was looking for something to do this and ran across this. Works on my Touch Pro using DYNDNS as well. I can control what is playing from anywhere now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
I'm glad I made you happy :P
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
it was a problem of my pc, now its works!

Full Working with my htc wizard :D

Really usefull your prog :D

app on ad-hoc?

When I'll return to university we have wired internet with some protocol....unable to hang a router on it....will this work, if i make an ad-hoc network on my computer en connect to it via my pda en then connect to the internal ip of my desktop?

cheerz,

Tom
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
The only thing needed is that a certain port on your computer is visible to the internet. It doesn't matter whether there is or is not a router.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Thombose:
True, but I only use wlan to go online with my pda :)...no data-abo...so I have to keep it internal...but I'll try it with an ad-hoc network en let you know...

Songbird!

It would be excellent if you implemented Songbird support. It wouldnt be hard cause its open source
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
I'll see what I can do mate.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] benleong2008:
cool app.

I did everything as stated in post 1.Unfortunately, whenever i click stop/play/next or any song on my htc diamond, it shows client says: stop wmp/playwmp/etc but it doesn't make any difference. The wmp in my pc doesn't react to what i press on htc diamond. Why is that so?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Puani:
wonderful app!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Puani:
i have a problem now!

i can press the buttons and in the window on the pc it shows the button whick i have pressed but the player do nothing!!

can someone help me please??
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
What version of WMP do you have?

You should try VLC because with VLC you can get the best out of the application.

Thank you so much!

Thank you =D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] benleong2008:
When i open the dRemote Server, there is a picture of windows media player at the bottom, how do I change it to VLC player so that i can add the vlc playlist? I tried adding the VLC playlist but it doesn't match the file format. sorry, a newbie here lol.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Freckle:
Please read my first post again.

Ah what the heck I'll quote it for ya!

You don't have to add a VLC playlist to the windows media player thing in the server, you just keep the vlc playlist in vlc.
