TrancerSte Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I run Poweramp on an Android TV box with all my music accessible via CIFS mounts to my NAS. This is the main audio solution in my home. It would be awesome if there was some way to control this instance of Poweramp from my phone/tablet remotely, either natively from the Poweramp app on the handheld device -- some kind of 'connect to remote instance' option -- or by allowing third party developers access to the relevant APIs to develop a remote control app themselves. I've messed about with various VNC-based solutions but haven't really found anything satisfactory. I guess I'm envisaging something like the Foobar2000 Controller Pro android app that connects to a PC based instance of Foobar2000 over the network. Maybe this is a lot of work for a edge usage case, but worth a shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Growing_Tree Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I agree, that would be a great feature. Kodi has such a remote app, and VLC too. But for music, I prefer powernap over kodi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 The current API would allow remote control if someone wanted to develop it. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
