Hi. It will be great if you can help set up upgarde to my multiroom sound setup.
I currently have a PC running 24/7 using the Apple remote app for multiroom control of itunes on the PC simulteniously sharing to other applt tv's and airport express. Its a great stable setup.
Im now loving spotify and would like to do the same.
I have made some head way having read the odd article, but have hit a stubling block!
Upto now I have;
a spotify account, (not yet premiuim) that I have the latest apps on the ipad iphone and download to the said PC
All working with the use of spotify connect.
Following more reading, I have intsalled the remotless app to ipad and Downloaded Remoteless Helper along with Airfoil.
I can get some parts working but its addhok! eg;
Starting with all apps and programmes closed-
open remotelss app
- connects to PC ok
- click 'start Spotify' - spotify opens on PC but as per photo attached, the time circle scrolls for ever.
- click 'Airloil' - Airfil oopens on the PC showing all Air speakers connected.
At this point i dont have any further remoteless control unless;
If on the PC I play a tune on the PC spotify then the remoteless app can control the various speakers on/off & volumes.
All this time the remoteless app displays as the photo above whereby spotify isnt starting properly.
any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Matt
