1.
Save Snapshot As -> filename
Save Workpace As -> filename

2. Install the latest driver.
Along with the new driver you get the latest TM FX version.

3. Then, if necessary, load Snapshot and Workplace (the 2 files from step 1)

You can control TM FX from a remote Windows PC connected via LAN or WLAN
The readme you find in the zip archive containing the remote software.
Simply unpack the ZIP file "tmfx_win_remote.zip".

One question Matthias, is it possible to test TM FX Remote on the local machine by using the loopback IP ?

Wasn't there a user who had some issues and you told him that TM FX Remote may no be installed on the machine where the normal TM FX instance is running ?

Do the two programs permaps overwrite their config files mutually ? Or are their other reasons why this is not possible ?

Many thanks.
Did you ever try to use TM FX and TM FX remote for the same recording interface ?
