Advanced Tip
Instructions
Notes
- Use a wifi connection if possible. A mobile data connection would work if the server is setup correctly, but the performance may not be acceptable
- When connected to a server, the app is constantly communicating with the server even when you're not actively interacting with the app. If you're connecting using a mobile data connection, this may incur a significant data usage fee.
- Tested with the SqueezeBox Receiver, Boom. Other devices should at least be controllable, but some menu items may not function correctly
