JRiver for Android synching playlists

<< < (3/4) > >>

Mr Swordfish:
"Android" plays .m4a files. Or at least my android device plays them with no problem with the included Sony app or with the Rocket player.

I can't get the Sony player to use the playlists generated by Media Center, even if I make the above modifications to the paths.  I've tried Sony support, but they were not helpful.  I suppose I could try the other 14 playlist file formats to see if I could get one to work. But...

The Rocket player happily uses either format for .m3u files.  It took about two minutes to get it to work.  They offer a tutorial, and I'll take a look at it, but it was easy to find my playlists, hit "shuffle", and the playlist played the .m4a files.

So, I'm moving on.  Media Center is a great product and so far it seems to pair nicely with the Rocket player.   

BradATIMA:
I have not had any issues playing m4a files with JRiver for Android. This seems like a separate issue, and you might want to post more details on the Android board.

We added an option when syncing custom playlist files: M3U (Android). It will be available in a later build. The M3U (relative paths) wasn't formatting the file paths properly when syncing to Android.

Mr Swordfish:
Thanks.  I'll give JRiver for Android another try once the update is available.

Mr Swordfish:
Ok, it's been almost a year but I just got a new android phone and thought I'd give JRiver for android another try.

Plugged the Android device into my Windows 10 computer,  selected the options for the android device, tried syncing a small playlist, and it errored out.  Logfile attached.

The good news is that I've been able to sync my Sony android device reliably over the past year.  Not sure what's going wrong here...

JimH:
On my Android phone, I had to adjust the settings for USB on the phone itself.

Windows also has to cooperate.
