I'm not sure I can drive any more screens on my main computer.
Why? I mean VNC in when you need access/to change something. Not all the time.
So you're proposing I use vnc to connect to a media system whenever I want to skip a track?
Unless you’ve got another solution that fits your requirements….
Plenty. All of them varying levels of bad.
Well then there it is.
The exact issue I asked for help with? Yes. There it is.
I'm not sure anyone doubted that was the issue; I didn't honestly expect someone to swoop in and just hand me a perfect solution.
I know that I'm not the target for most of these applications and my requirements are different than pretty much everyone seeking this style of software.
Long story short, it's a difficult problem and as of yet, I haven't found a workable solution. I'll keep looking. I have plenty of ideas of what to do when I finally solve this issue, but for now, I just have to make due.
