GOM Remote

GOM Remote can transform your iPhone or Android device into a remote control for GOM Player or GOM Audio, which can help you in situations when you want to jump to the next song or stop the playback without walking to the computer.

The application is easy to configure, so setting up a connection with the handset should not be difficult at all, provided you follow the on-screen instructions. As it usually happens with this kind of applications, the mobile client app (GOM Remote for Android or GOM Remote for iPhone, depending on the device you own) must be installed on the handheld device. There is no need for the both the PC and the handset to be connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

The PC with GOM Remote installed should be automatically detected by the Android or iPhone app. The connection is established by entering the pairing key of the server side in the GOM Remote mobile app. Once you do so, a PIN number appears on the PC screen, which you must input on your phone before the time runs out in order to complete pairing.

Using GOM Remote, you can launch and shut down GOM Player or GOM Audio, open a locally stored multimedia file, adjust the volume or browse the playlist. During video playback, the smartphone app allows you to modify the aspect ratio, activate or disable subtitles and modify subtitle speed, activate full screen mode or take frame screenshots. You can also place the player on another monitor with a finger's touch, configure a PC timer, and manage the computer's power source.

The mobile app includes playback controls that enable you to jump to another song, as well as pause the currently loaded audio or video file. It enables you to use the smartphone as a touchpad to control the mouse cursor.

GOM Remote enables you to remotely jump to the next song without having to stay close to the PC to do so. In other words, it can prove useful when watching a movie or listening to music, since it offers you the possibility to control the player options even from another room.
