In order to start / stop / restart media portal remotely instead of using vnc I developed a small client / server application which supports those commands. It's very basic in its current stage. (Not even sure if it works on computers other than mine).
Please try the application if you want, but most importantly is there any need for an application like this? Should I continue to develop it?
Client configuration file:
Server configuration file:
The client is started in a console (at this moment), like this:
It supports the following commands:
This is an early early beta, use it on your own risk.

Planned improvements:
- Server is started as a window process
- Client GUI.
I will upload the source code upon request. Written in C++.
