What is SoundIt?
SoundIt is a Chrome extension that enables you to enjoy audio visual entertainment in peace. The extension helps stream your PC media to your smartphone, allowing you to use earphones for private listening, thereby dampening the sound for others. It's an excellent solution for movie nights without disturbing people around you. In addition, it lets you scatter numerous devices in your place to play music without additional amplifying equipment. It's compatible with any device using a current internet browser.

Followed instructions precisely. For one the Soundlt enabler would not download correctly. This was easily mitigated by running the given command in an administrator cmd. Once done, the ip:port would not connect. Both devices were connected to the same wifi.

Installed on Windows 10, started te enabled program - it said everything is ok. I connected from another computer and my android phone from chrome - I see the web page with the volume slider, On the main computer I see a device has been connected, also I see in the Volume mixer a new program: Logitech Media Server - with the green bar indicating playing sound. But I get no sound - neither on my other pc, nor on my phone...
