JRiver and Cambridge audio 851N won't connect
« on: April 19, 2021, 01:30:55 am »

The following configuration:
JRiver version 27
Cambridge audio 851N network player

I try to play music from my computer via the 851N on my audio installation but can't connect JRiver to the 851
What must I do?

How are you trying to connect? Over your home network or direct via USB/Optical...?

Turn on Media Network in options.

I turned the media network on and the DLNA server but no way he is playing my music through my 851N player. Maybe the wrong DNLA option 'Generic DNLA'

Maybe.  Try setting up Windows Defender.

... at this point I’m afraid that your 851N cannot be used as DLNA renderer ....
But you could try a different approach:
In JRiver enable the DLNA Media Server
https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Media_Server (Configuration of Media Server)
then, using the Cambridge Audio app, you should be able to select JRiver as Media Server
Select the music you like and play it to the 851N

I don't use JRemote or whatever. How would I use a driver for the 851 on my computer? (CA connect?) My device is not been seen as a renderer or music player if JRiver just like spotify. It is not in the upper left corner.

JRemote cost 11 euro additional and I have already paid for JRiver. In the tiral it worked but now it doesn't. Which DLNA renderer I must use, used Generic and 24bit high resolution or another.

Does the 851N appear as a media device under "Playing Now"?

It finally works. A piece of hardware (router) did the trick. I had changed the router with standard IP 192.168.0.1 for a router with standard adres 192.168.1.1 which was the new router. Now a changed back to the old router with adres 192.168.0.1 and the player (851N) is seen by JRiver ans plays now from my computer to my audio equipment. Is there a way for the dev. to detect a different IP when switching router?

Just set dhcp instead of fixed ip address in the network settings

In my router? I can change the IP in my router actually I thought. Can change the router adress but never thought that a change of IP (gateway) did such problems.

Not in the router but in your 851N
