                 On your personal website...                                                                                   Or from iGoogle...

     

    1. Install the GET control extension by gfxmonk.
    2. Open about:config in the location bar and set "extensions.GET-control.localonly" to false and restart Songbird.
    3. Get the Songbird Remote iGoogle Gadget and verify your Network name in the settings!

     

    If you have your own web space...

    1. Download songbird-control.zip and extract it.
    2. Open index.html and replace all the boosh entries with your own computer's network name. (i.e. http://boosh:50136/ctl/play to http://NAME-PC:50136/ctl/play)
    3. Upload songbird-control to your own personal webpage and you are ready to control Songbird from any computer or device on your network ;-)

     

     

    Additional Information:

    -You can view the localhost demo here (only works on the computer you have Songbird on, not over the network).

    -Check out gfxmonk's official github project here where you can download his version of the web-control.

    -If you prefer an AJAX(local only) or PHP implementation, you can get 'em here (created by jhlassen17)

    -If it isn't working, you might have to adjust your firewall settings, try a different port, or restart Songbird.
