Remote Status?
« on: August 08, 2019, 09:37:27 am »

Has development ended for JRemote/Gizmo?
No one seems to be able to reach EOS/Developer...no updates there either.

* When/Will JRemote have a widget feature?

* When/Will JRemote remember what was played last from each server/upon logging in to server... the playing now is always empty (eos remembers it)

* Chromecast? (i thought EOS had this, and either JRemote or Gizmo.. but i'm not finding it on any of the 3 anymore)
* Eos loads views/thumbs so much faster

* Eos plays videos in portrait or landscape mode

*Gizmo and EOS have a playing now/JRemote doesnt (in the home area)

* None of the 3 have a notification bar, w/ playlist controls/one must always open recent apps to pause/skip etc

*EOS is the only one that has a play control Widget (this is a biggie imo...media player/smartphone/homescreen)But there is issues w/ eos's as well, when clicking play from homescreen widget it opens the eos app/the point of widget is to control/but stay on that screen/home.. i can understand when one clicks the album artwork that it would open eos app, but if one presses play cntrls, then it should play/and stay in home position... Also EOS widget size is not adjustable,

*EOS Huge biggie... is one cannot play music/video and leave the eos screen...the playback will stop.

* Available options/settings are different in all 3

*Gizmo/EOS have theaterview remote/JRemote doesnt

i did notice... u guys finally have implemented youtube trailers in version 25 (even though the tag was available since, version....? )

Do note i have emails sent to you personally/JRiver offering to help pay for development as well.

After all that.. jriver is still my daily driver. (there are many positives, that still outweigh the negatives)

To all you i haven't seen in years (Wave... hope allz been well)

Hendrik has been working on a JRemote for Android update for awhile now, and it's getting close to beta testing.

Alternatively, I also recommend the MO 4Media remote that's available for Android and iOS: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,114964.0.html

A lot of your questions are about EOS, which was developed by Soul_Rvr911.

It's not in active development and he hasn't been active on the forum for several years.
