i have my main comp which is hooked up to my amp and floorstanders. what i would like to do is control vlc player from my laptop when im in bed. is there anyway to do this. whether using a different media player might help?
 
couldnt you use your laptop to remote desktop your main computer and control playback that way
 
You can use logmein.com. Install it on your desktop and access it through remote control. Kind of awkward, but should work flawlessly.
 
Wouldn't LogMeIn go from:

One PC in your house >> LogMeIn Server >> Your other PC

Which would mean un-nessicary lag? I'd use VNC/RDC
 
so what would be the easiest to use and simplest to setup? any good guides that you know of so that i can follow them?

my laptop is going through a netgear routor wireless and then that is connected through to my computer by ethernet from the routor then to an ethernet switch and then to the comp
 
easiest way would be remote desktop
which os's are bot laptop and desktop running
