Can I start playback on remote users device?

[RedNo7 4]

Am I able to start playback on my 89yr old mum's AppleTV (who sometimes struggles with finding things or selecting the right episode etc)?

She lives remotely but has access to my server.

I'd accept being able to put the right show front and centre on her AppleTV so she only has to press play.

Hi, in many cases yes you can start playback on another device using the cast feature. Try opening the web app and clicking the cast icon in the upper right.

Even if the device is remote?  …will try that, thanks?

Yes even if remote.
