Remote Nlite.exe connection?

[uspino]

Since you seem to be experimenting with an alternative cross platform client, and there's a windows build ready to try, is there a way to make nlite.exe connect to a remote server? The current build just looks for servers on the same LAN. Remote connection would be really useful...

Yes, you can run it with this style of command line:

nlite.exe -server 192.168.1.129:8866:0000

ie, <ipaddress>:<port>:<pin>

However, it streams the native streams, so would only work for you if you've got a fast internet connection.

Great! Can it be used to schedule, view recordings, etc.? Is there a OS X client coming up?

Is there a OS X client coming up?

There is half of an answer in another thread ...

Sure, I've compiled it and ran it on Mac before. I'm not really an expert in packaging up mac apps though. Anyone else with development tools should be able to compile and run it, following the same general steps as Linux build.

Until the source is released and a developer found, as an interim solution, Kodi for OSX with x-newa web client will work over the internet and provides the same interface as nlite. Additionally it supports transcoded playback.
