I have been using JRiver for Windows for many years on my HTPC. I have just ordered a new Sony X95J television with Google TV.

I am hoping that I can use the "JRiver for Android" on the "Google TV" to present my existing media library on the new TV; while using my existing J"River for Windows" to manage the library and play content on the old HD television.

Will JRiver for Android run in a useful manner on Google TV?

If so, are there any limitations beyond a similar arrangement based solely on "JRiver Media Center for Windows"?

Thanks and Regards.

Google TV is just a name change. The OS is the same. It's still Android. Presumably Google felt getting good old Google out there on millions of TVs had more advertising weight than Android.

Google TV is a name change from Android TV, which was originally Google TV.

It's a special version of Android.

JRiver for Android runs on some devices that use it, like the NVIDIA Shield.

I don't know what will happen if you can install it on the Sony, but it's worth a try.

I would really like to know if people are having success with running MC for Android on Sony Google TVs before I buy one!

Thx

If your library is in your PC you could give MO 4Media remote a go. It works under AndroidTV and you can try limited version for free
