Today at JRiver
« on: September 06, 2017, 06:33:32 pm »
We had some fun today.  We fired up Media Network on everyone's machines and then shared access.  Everyone could connect in any way they wished. 

Both Hendrik and Yaobing, who work in Hamburg and Chicago, opened their machines to access. 

Most things just worked.  That was good.

We had a few problems with video playback to JRemote on iOS and to Panel.  We think it's a conversion problem, but we're still checking.

We found a few rough spots that we can fix.

This may have been fun, but it is also good. Well done. Polish those rough spots.

In a related issue, you once mentioned that you should add WOL requests in more spots to get that working better. If my HTPC Server is asleep and I start a Client via direct LAN IP connection, which should be a faster method, WOL messages are not issued. To wake the Server I need to use the Access Key method, which in turn needs access to the internet or takes a long time before it decides to use the last information it had, so the whole process is much slower. I don't think I should need to have access to the internet in order to wake a Server on my LAN.

That is a rough spot that I think could do with some polishing.

Sounds very good, I am looking forward to the results :)

There's also that long-standing client smartlist bug when using playlist ID rules.

I actually have trained myself not to edit playlists on clients at this point so it doesn't really affect me as much anymore, but if we're on this topic again...
