Hi Gary and Michelle,

That's right, you can configure Serviio using a remote console. If you get the Windows Binary and install on a windows or the linux version. Remember to install just the console (in case of Linux, it's just to extract the files). In both cases, you need to configure the serviio.remoteHost, as already mentioned.

Have a look in some of the links below, they might help:

Consoles (I use the Android one, very good):

FAQ:

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
Fabio

Michelle, I seem to remember you can configure it using the console remotely using the property serviio.remoteHost but I've never tried it.
