XMBC (Frodo) running on Windows 7
Samsung S4.
Configured the web server and remote control settings on the XMBC on Win 7.
The official XMBC remote app, and also Yatse. Neither are able to connect to the XMBC server.
I have made sure that the Windows firewall does allow XMBC.
Have tried different port numbers in the XMBC web server settings.
On the phone, used a ping app to ping the Win 7 machine. That works.
But from the phone's web browser, http://192.168.1.104 (with or without port number) fails. Also, doing the same thing from another computer on the home network also fails. Pls note the above is the internal IP for XMBC server.
I have no idea what to do. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
