+*** The =--remote== flag
+
+   The =--remote= flag executes *strm* on another machine and passes all other arguments to it.
+   For this, *strm* needs to be installed and configured on the remote machine.
+
+   If you pass the =--media-directories= flag it doesn't need to be configured but make sure your arguments are correct from the point of view of the remote machine.
+
+   The =--fullscreen= is inverted when playing on a remote machine.
+   It is set by default and not set if you explicitly pass it.
+
+   The remote =$DISPLAY= variable is set to =:0= by default which should fit most setups.
+   If you wish to change this you have to adjust the script in line 131.

 ** Configuration
 
    If the =--media-directories= argument is not set, the script looks for a configuration file with the following content:
