Re: Subsonic on chumby
@Steve
Assuming you've installed Subsonic on a Windows PC...
To get the IP address of your music server, go to Start > Run > type cmd and press enter to get the command line. Then type ipconfig and press enter. This will give you details of your current network connection including your local IP address (usually 192.168.something.something).
Note that you may want to set this address to a static IP (you can Google this info) otherwise if you turn off your PC the address may change.
To find out what port number you are using, right click the Subsonic tray icon and choose 'open subsonic in browser'. Your browser will open a page http://localhost:XXXX, where XXXX is the port number that Subsonic is running on.
Combine these 2 bits of information to make up your Subsonic server address: http://192.168.something.something:XXXX
You may be able to use your PC machine name instead of the IP address but I've not tested this. Right click 'My Computer', select 'Properties' and the computer name will be listed in there. You may be able to use this value instead to get around the static IP issue, i.e. http://computername:XXXX
Personally, I've got my router to port-forward Subsonic through my Internet connection so I can set up the Android & Chumby clients against my external IP address to access music from outside my home (over 3G etc).
