Universal Media Server | Forum

So, now I'm able to connect to the UMS web interface over the internet. The problem is the videos are stuttering horribly.

Anyway to lower the quality or something so the videos are a lot more smooth? What settings or transcoders or whatnot should be used?

Use the UMS Web interface with your favorite browswer on the laptop you want to watch movies on.
Ah, nice.

For some reason, I couldn't find any solid documentation on this web interface, but I did find the info I need from this thread .

I was able to connect to my server via http://myipaddress ...

How do I use UMS to stream from my Windows desktop PC to my laptop over the internet? Is there some way with VLC?

Thanks.
