Jremote2. What am I missing
« on: September 06, 2021, 07:09:05 pm »
Bought me a Samsung tablet and loaded Jremote2. Got it configured and up and running. What am I missing because I can't remotely control jriver for the computer. I can play the music from my computer on my tablet. I see the theater mode but when I activate it, all I see is the jriver emblem on my tablet and if I look at my computer screen I can see it is now in theater mode. My whole point of buying a tablet and going with Jremote2 was to sit in my chair and select my music from tablet and control the volume and maybe some DSP settings from the tablet.  I hope I'm missing something??

Have you activated the MC media server?
Did you find your server and enter it's access key in the JRemote app?

Yes. It is activated because I can play the music from my computer on my tablet.

Change the zone to "Player" in JR2.

Thank you!!  It worked great. Only thing I can't figure out is how to remotely control volume when using live in??  Any ideas

In MC go to Tools/Options/Audio/Volume and set to Internal volume.

I have selected internal volume. I don't see anyplace on Jremote2 that allows me to control volume when using live in as my source

I am curious for people that have used JRemote and Jremote2, is JRemote 2 a better remote?  I just dont like Jremote2...  It has it quirks.

The hardware volume keys should work.

You can also use the volume slider at the top of Playing Now.
