GreggP:
Since JRiver for Android can't handle smartplaylists for imported media, I'd still like to load a library from my Media Server. This is something I was able to do in the past.
Is everyone else able to do this?
If not, has any progress been made to fix this?
BradATIMA:
Even with the library backup you sent me, I was able to load the library, so I'm not sure why you're seeing an endless loading screen. It's something I see once in a while, but not every time. Usually, backing out of the load library activity and trying again resolves it.
What version of Media Center is the library server you're trying to load running, and what OS?

It's pretty frustrating because up until a few weeks ago my library loaded every time. It took a while, maybe 30 to 45 seconds, but it loaded. I haven't deliberately changed anything with my system since it worked but who knows what automatic updates on my laptop or Shield have been installed.
I'm running Media Center v29.0.87 (64-bit) on my Windows 11 Pro v22H2 laptop. This laptop and my Shield are both connected to my router with CAT6 ethernet cables.
As I said, I haven't changed any settings or installed any updates that might cause this, but are there any network settings I should check? To try to troubleshoot this problem, I installed the remote app MO 4Media to see if it had a similar problem with loading my library. It didn't. My library loads pretty quickly with this app. However, I've tried playing from a 1,000-song smartlist and it usually stops after about 6 or 8 songs. Sometimes it appears to have disconnected from my library but it reconnects quickly when I hit the play button again.

On the server, try the Media Network test in options to see if it's accessible.

I've checked this before and it's been okay but still won't load my library. However, I just tested and this is the message:
"Library Server could not be registered with JRiver. You need a connection to the internet and it cannot block outgoing http connections from Media Center."
Then I tried again and the result shows it is working fine. It says, "The Library Server is not reachable from the Internet, but you can still use it from within your local network." Since everything I'm trying to do is from within my local network, this should be fine.
