- Connecting to Multiple Audio Servers -

eHome allows you to connect to multiple Audio servers. So to say, if you have 3 eHome audio servers on your network, one in the kitchen, living room and garage. You can control each one from a single location. For example, you want the eHome kitchen computer to be able to control the eHome living room and eHome garage computers you would...

On the kitchen computer, in the C:\eHome\Client-Server folder, create a text file named eHomeMultiSvrsAud.ini

Now you need to add the computers you wish to connect to in the file. The format is as follows:

Description$$Computer$$Zone

So your file should look something like this:

[main]
1=Living Room$$LRoom$$ZONE_00
2=Local Computer$$Local$$ZONE_00
3=Garage Computer$$garage$$ZONE_00

NOTE: make sure you add a local computer or you will not be able to switch back to yourself.

Once the file is created restart your eHome client and go to Audio. In the lower left hand side you should see a new icon, touch this and audio list will popup.
