JRiver on Android -- Development Discussion, Questions, & Answers
markf2748:
(1) Is it possible to define sorted views in JRiver for Android based on custom tags found in the files it reads from the phone's microSD card?
For example, I want a view which sorts albums according to a custom date stamp in the audio tags. The date is available in two tags, one as a literal text string (month/day/year) and the other as a MC date code. This is easily done in JRiver MC, but what about for local files read by JR4A?
(2) Can JR4A display the lyrics tag text found in files read from the phone's microSD card?
I wish it were possible to have a free limited evaluation copy in order to try these and current features before purchasing.

This is something I'd like to do. I have a UPNP NAS on my network and JRiver for Android on my Sony Android TV. Has this improvement happened yet?
JimH:
Don't use UPnP. Import from the drive.

I can't see how to do that. Here's what I tried. Pics attached.
1 JRiver Import - OK
2 Internal Storage (no other option) right arrow >
3 Choose Music right arrow >
4 blank screen
Whereas in VLC
5 Eddie Synology UPNP detected
6 Music Albums found and displayed.
Ho do I import from the Synology NAS? Back in 2021 BradATIMA said this was not possible but planned.
JimH:
I missed the fact that you're running JRiver for Android.
From there, you can load a library created on a computer running JRiver. It must have created a library by importing from the NAS.
