My computer is basically a host w/ all my music on it. I wish there’s a way for me to use my laptop to remotely tell the host to play music since it’s hooked to my surround sound system. Both machines are on my home wireless network. Are there any softwares on the market that allows this to happen?
Is there a way to remote control a computer with a laptop via a home wireless network?

You might be able to do it with VNC, never tried with sound though. Don;t think you can do it with Windows RDP (Remote Desktop Connection)
Hope this helps you

There are a couple different ways you can do this, but it would probably be done with using the laptop. X10 has a coupel different things you could use. One is for playing and controlling music on your computer…..
They have all kinds of fun gagdgets that do things like you are trying to accomplish. and this way you don’t tie up your lap top too!
