Clients can easily remote control other clients. The first step is to make a call to /Sessions.
This will return a list of active sessions. This is testable via swagger and the properties returned should be self-explanatory, e.g. UserName, UserId, LastActivityDate, etc.
NowViewingContext is the section of the application currently being viewed. Possible values are:
- movies
- music
- tv
- games
- (blank) for general and/or clients that are entirely folder-based.
###Sending a browse command
You can instruct a client to browse to something by posting to the following url:
/Sessions/{Id}/Viewing
The following values should be included within post data:
- ItemId - The id of the item to browse to
- ItemName - The name of the item to browse to
- ItemType - The type of the item to browse to
- Context (optional). movies, tv, music, games. Clients may choose to ignore this.
