help with external player feature

Postby knibbeje » Thu Jan 19, 2012 6:07 pm

Hi,
I use Windows Media Player as my external player at work. When I load up a list of songs and play it, WMP opens up by itself and starts playing. If I go back to the webpage for my list of songs and clear out the current set, and then load up a new set, WMP starts playing the previous set of songs. The only way around it is to close WMP, clear out the previous songs from the bottom pane of the web page interface, then add new songs, and then let WMP open back up with the new songs. Am I missing something? Can't WMP always know to play the most recent song you send to it?

Also what restrictions are there for multiple people playing from my music folder at once? Can online and my android phone stream at once? I like to use the subair app, can more than 1 computer at different locations use the subair app at the same time? Can they even stream the same song at the same time via subair? I just get times where subair doesn't work and I'm not sure if it is an issue of 2 people using subair at teh same time from different computers?

Thanks
JDK

Not sure on the first question, but I do what you mention in the second paragraph all the time... I'll see what someone is listening to in the left pane, click on it, and start listening to the same thing...
