Can you clarify what you mean?

HereSphere is good at sync'ing a video file with a .funscript file that is used for controlling The Handy.  I have a video file and an mp3 file, both the same length.  So instead of using a .funscript file, I'd like to play the mp3 file on my Android tablet in-sync with the video file playing in HereSphere on the Quest2.

Hmm, I might add the option to play mp3 files directly in the player. That would make a lot more sense than trying to sync with an external android tablet. You might also just be able to play mp3 files directly in the web browser, if you just want to run the audio file in the background.

Hey, as the other guy didn't resond anymore: That's not what he needs.

The audio waves in the mp3 actually is used for generating the electrical stimulation patterns.

These devices plug into a headphone jag, thus he needs to run it on another device.

Kodi Mediacenter allows remote control via webinterface or JSON-RPC over http or tcp, is available for a lot of devices besides Android and should be relatively easy to implement (just synching to the file Kodi is currently playing, choosing the audio file from the library can be done manually through the web interface in Heresphere browser already).

@Bluemod: Have you tried Kodi yet? It can be manually synced through the webinterface in Heresphere while the video is running.

No, I'll give Kodi a try, thanks!

I didn't respond to the previous message because the conversation seemed unable to convey what I was trying to describe.

As you indicate, this would not be achieved by playing an mp3 file directly within Quest2 device (unless it replaces the video audio, which isn't what I'm looking to do).  The Quest2 would need a 2nd audio chipset & output (primary would be for the video's normal audio to the viewer's headphones, the 2nd being the mp3 audio to the estim device).  Even if this was possible using a USB-C audio interface, I'm not sure the Quest2 could support it properly.  Hence the simpler solution seemed to be sync'ing to an external tablet's mp3 player (with its own audio interface, headphone socket, etc.).

I finally got a chance to try setting up Kodi.  If I use Quest2's browser app to connect to my Kodi device, it works OK.  But when I try the exact same URL:<port> in Heresphere's browser, it responds "ERR_HTTP_RESPONSE_CODE_FAILURE".

I'll keep digging for a solution, but it seems Heresphere's browser is getting an unexpected response.
