I have a mac mini at home hooked up to my tv and am trying to write an automator app to remotely select a movie on that mini and play it on that mini from my laptop.
Here is the workflow idea:
Ask for finder item - begin at network volume Mac mini > username > Movies
Get filepath
use applescript to tell finder on remote machine to open movie at filepath
The problem is I get an applescript error when I run it, which I believe is because the Path variable is /Volumes/username/Movies/file.xxx which makes no sense to the targeted computer, which is wanting something like /Users/username/Movies/file.xxx
So how do I mess with the Path variable and correct this?
