I have a Fire HD 8 tablet running Fire OS 7 (Android 9 Pie based).  I also have Google Play and services sideloaded on it, so it runs just like any Android 9device.  I run all kinds of apps from Google app store on it without problems.

Will JRiver on Android run on it?

JimH:
If it installs, it will probably run.  You have an hour to test it.  If there are any problems, uninstall it during that hour.

What is the general logic in thumbnail caching?

I assume that there is a background process that grabs thumbnails from the MC server loaded, while any object (e.g. album) on first use will instantly be cached?  Is there a periodic screen refresh while thumbnails are caching?  I notice that sometimes if I click on two objects one after another to get thumbnails on the file level, when I get back to Album, the Album page refreshes.  However it is not consistent.

If there is a background process, should I leave the mobile device unlocked to prevent the app from going into sleep mode?

Thanks in advance.

I notice something interesting about thumbnail display.

Let's say, if I use the slider to go to C, then click a thumbnail with a "?", when I get out, it brings me to the top of the page.  Then I use the slider to go to D, then I scroll up, then all the "?" thumbnails between C and D will be filled with artwork.

By the way, all my music files have artwork embedded.

On Panel, I can see the entire list of songs currently playing at a client endpoint.

On JRiver on Android, I can only see the current song playing.  If I swipe left to see the list, I see the list of songs I played from this device last, not the current list at the client endpoint.

Is this behaviour by design?
