    Hey guys, does iPimp support WOL ? My server sleeps when not used, but it would be nice if iPimp could wake it up when required...

    Cheers

    Dude, that doesn't make sense...
    If iPimp is running on my iPhone and can send WOL packet to clients, why can't this be done for server also ??
    All that needs to happen is for iPimp to send WOL packet via web ( 3G ) or Wi-Fi ( local net ) to my server's NIC.

    Otherwise, this app is only useful if server is running 24/7 which is kinda silly and useless if trying to save electricity..

    cheers

    edit... let me get this straight.. i think i have it backwards.
    Is iPimp running on server or iphone ???

    iPiMP is a web application, it runs on the server and installs nothing on your iPhone.

    You need a WOL app from the app store or Cydia.

    Yep.. no worries.. i was having a blonde moment there for a while.
    I managed to get a WOL app for my iphone which allows me to wakeup my server when required.

    Thx for the responses btw.. :)

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
