24.0.15 (1/8/2019)

1. NEW: JRiver for Android will now attempt to import from secondary storage devices as well.
2. Fixed: The app would crash when using the back button in some cases.
3. Fixed: The notification playback buttons were sending commands to all zones.

24.0.14 (12/21/2018)

1. NEW: Added an About option to the menu to display the app version.
2. Fixed: The app service would sometimes crash.

24.0.13 (12/20/2018)

1. NEW: The app now runs as a service, which allows it to keep system resources when in the background or sleeping. This will cause more of a drain on batteries if the service is running when the device is asleep.
2. NEW: Added a notification window with some playback control options for when the device is locked or the app is in the background.
3. NEW: Added a quit option to the menu in the action bar that will properly stop Media Center.

24.0.12 (12/14/2018)

1. Fixed: Playing an image to the Player zone would cause a crash.
2. Changed: The device back button will navigate back through the
browser history instead of destroying the task unless it can't go back.
3. Changed: Added the DCIM (camera) folder to the list of import folders.

24.0.11 (12/12/2018)

1. NEW: Added image support.
2. Fixed: The Android output plugin would crash with floating point PCM data.

24.0.10 (12/11/2018)

1. NEW: Added support for Android TV devices.

24.0.9 (12/10/2018)

1.  Fixed one crash.

24.0.8 (12/7/2018)

1.  APE files now play.

24.0.7 (12/6/2018)

1. Fixed: Seek was not working when playing to the player or other zones.
2. Fixed: The UI was not getting restored on rotation and during other state changes on some versions of Android.

24.0.6 (12/5/2018)

1. Changed: DLNA: explicitly supply the library server (Panel) port with the presentation page URL for our DLNA renderers and servers.
2. Fixed: DLNA when authentication was enabled, the DeviceDescription.xml for Library Server couldn't be loaded on a remote MC. This means that if the server wasn't manually setup on the remote for authentication is might now show up in the server list.
3. Changed: JRiver for Android will open Panel in an embedded browser in the app instead of an external browser.
4. NEW: Implemented an audio output plugin.
5. Fixed: DLNA devices were being propagated properly because the MAC addresses weren't being used.

24.0.5 (12/4/2018)

1. Fixed: Possible fix for the crashes on some Android versions.

24.0.4 (11/30/2018)

1. Changed: Updated the app to target the latest SDK.
2. Changed: Added permissions check when the app first starts.
3. Changed: The displayed name of the app is now just "JRiver".

Nice! Unfortunately for me, it doesn't detect my SD card's music directory. If it helps, here's the path to my music folder on the SD card...

Code: [Select]

/storage/CB5C-1510/Music

I did my update while on wifi, after the update had installed, the wifi network I was on seemed to stopped working.  I opened JRiver next and the screen was just white (the JRiver headers were there, the notification dot started, but the middle was blank).  I quit the app, and reopened it, same thing.  I did this a few times, and twice I got an Android, this app has stopped responding message.  I rebooted my phone (because I had realized the wifi died on me), same thing.  I then went to the forums in Chrome and realized I was offline.  I also tested with my laptop and the wifi was indeed not working, it wasn't just my phone.  I changed the phone to LTE and then JRiver opened normally.

I've opened JRiver multiple times on airplane mode (and did just now) without issue.  I'm not sure if this is post update specific, or if it was that I was connected to wifi with no internet access.  After I figured this out, the wifi of course started working again, so it's hard for me to replicate it.

Try waiting.  This build looks at your SD card.

Not sure if that was directed at the hang I mentioned or not.  I thought that it might just be scanning and waited a bit (I left the app open while I walked around the room for a few minutes doing things).  I don't have an SD card in this phone, just the internal memory, I think it's 128 gb.

Just left JRiver for Android open for a couple hours, but it never found my music files on my external SD card.

Thank you team, I finally have my music (on SD).

Awesome, I had to uninstall, reboot, install et voila!

[Awesome Donkey]

Yep, I had to uninstall and reinstall it, and now it picks up my music on my SD card! YAY!

Hi all,

Does this app have the ability to run in exclusive mode to prevent other phone services from interrupting playback?
