Remote control

The server can drive the screens connected to it.

Pause and stop from the dashboard

Activity lists what every screen is playing, how far it got and where it reads from. Pause and Stop act on that screen at once; Stop asks the screen first and cuts it after five seconds.

A remote for any screen

Remote control lists the screens you can drive. Press Control on one for:

• a touchpad: drag to move the pointer, tap to click, long press to go back, two fingers to scroll;
• the arrows, OK and Back;
• the keyboard, to type in search;
• pause and skip, always at hand.

On a phone, Server Manager gives you the same remote. The screen shows a badge and the pointer while it’s being controlled.

Allowing it on a screen

Playpex TV accepts the remote only while Settings › Remote control › Allow remote control from the server is on. The remote drives the Playpex window only, never the rest of the computer.
