Would like to know I am working with something that might work before I start fighting with it again.

If you go to the About page in the app, you can check if an update is available there.

Actually it looks like I have the latest version. The library now loads. But the app is not useable.
It does not seem to pick up the organization from the server. I choose "Disk" which as far as I can tell is the closest thing to "Folders" but it only shows me a single show. That particular show (The Avengers), is old and in AVI format but they will not play. All I get is a grey blank screen.
Going into "Shows" is completely useless as it does not seem to be organized in any particular manner. There does not seem to be any way to show a list so you only get these incredibly difficult to read tiles.
On my server when I click on "Shows" I get all my shows organized by Series Name, Season, Episode. The display on the Android app is just a jumbled mess. So the huge tiles with little text do nothing to help you find anything.
Didn't really try to play anything other than the 1 AVI as navigation of the app was obviously going to be an issue going forward.

When you load a library on Android, the layout comes from the server. To change the layout, on the server, go to Tools -> Options -> Media Network -> Advanced -> Customize views for JRemote, Gizmo & Panel...
Keep in mind, you need to restart both the server and JRiver for Android after making any changes.

It should be posted today or tomorrow, but it might take a few days before it clears Google's review. Just note, you should clear the app data before trying.

Sorry, it's taken so long to respond.
The latest build now loads my library. However, I noticed that after playing several songs, the sound quality degrades. This sound degradation doesn't seem to happen when I play an album from the local library on my SHIELD. Is there some setting I should double check on the server side when I play from the Media Server?
