** Installation
Make sure, mpv is installed and that you have access to a machine via SSH.
If you plan to execute *strm* on a remote machine with the =--remote= flag, install [[https://github.com/tmux/][tmux]] in addition to mpv on the target.
*strm* is just a script, you can execute it directly.
Or grab it and place it in your =$PATH=.

*** The =--remote= flag
The =--remote= flag executes *strm* on another machine and passes all other arguments to it.
The =--remote= flag executes *strm* on another machine in a tmux session and passes all other arguments to it.
For this, *strm* needs to be installed and configured on the remote machine.
Launching it in a tmux session allows to detach from the session with =C-b d=.
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.
If a session is already running on the target machine, the session gets attached.
Further commands are ignored (it is even sufficient to call =strm -r <remote>=).
If you pass the =--media-directories= flag, *strm* doesn't need to be configured but make sure your arguments are correct from the point of view of the remote machine.
The same holds true if you pass the =--config= flag.
=--fullscreen= is inverted when playing on a remote machine.
It is set by default and not set if you explicitly pass it.
On the remote, the =$DISPLAY= variable is set by default to =:0= which should fit most setups.
If you wish to change this you have to adjust the script in line 131.
If you wish to change this, search for the line containing =DISPLAY= in the script and adjust it.
