Unable to execute castnow remotely #193

Hello, I have a shell script (.sh) that executes castnow which works fine but when I try to run that same shell script remotely, it does not work (For example, if I run the shell script from a php script that is hosted on my lighttpd server). I've also tried various other methods of trying to execute castnow remotely but to no avail and with the same outcome. It would either not work at all or it would occasionally start playing a video for a few seconds and then just stop.

Can you add an short example of your shell and php script?
