Abstract
A system for receiving redirected electronic media playback includes a proxy configured to communicate with a remote access module. The remote access module is configured to establish a remote access connection between the system and a remote system. The proxy is configured to receive, over the remote access connection, a decode request for electronic media content designated for a local multimedia application on the system, and in return, provide a result for the request. The proxy is also configured to receive at least one playback command designated for playing the electronic media content on the local multimedia application. The electronic media appears to be playing on a remote multimedia application on the remote system corresponding to the local multimedia application, but is played on the local multimedia application. A system for redirecting playback of electronic media content to a remote system, methods, and machine-readable media are also provided.
