TCP Remote Control Reference
All global settings are stored in an XML file that is stored in the Documents folder of the current user:
Edit this files in Notepad and go under <tcp_control> section to activate the TCP Control :
Write it following this example:
<tcp_control>
<addr ip=”YOUR IP” port=”5000″/>
</tcp_control>
Once done, save and restart Exaplay.
Exaplay will maintain a persistent thread for each connection until the other end closes the socket, so, it is alright to keep it open, and even polling cue state information.
