JRemote2 for Android - Official Release
Hendrik:
Its finally done, right for Easter.
CloudPlay support for JRemote2 has been in development for a long time, and there have been many hurdles to overcome, but now its the first remote that can not only instruct MC itself to play from CloudPlay, but also directly stream from the cloud without involving MC (most of the time). JRemote2 can only play FLAC from CloudPlay (for now), so if another format is encountered, it'll go back to MC and ask it for a transcoded stream - but we're looking into extending the native support for Lossless formats in JRemote2 to tackle this.
Radio JRiver is equally supported in either local or remote playback, in full lossless quality for FLAC streams.
Due to the new requirements for CloudPlay on a remote, using this feature requires Media Center 26.0.52 or newer, which was released publicly just a few hours ago to ensure it can be tested right away!
As an additional bonus, I've included the Theater View Remote functionality in this update, which was originally developed for Gizmo, and never actually made it into the previous version of JRemote. It actually works pretty neatly and I would recommend to check it out if you use Theater View!
Note: Due to the current situation in the world, it may take longer then usual for Google to approve this update and distribute it to all devices.

1. NEW: Full CloudPlay support (requires Media Center 26.0.52 or newer)

Awesome Donkey:
Cloudplay works pretty good in JRemote2, been checking out thecrow's HiRes 24/96 and 24/192 playlists and the smooth jazz playlist. :D
