Thank you for allowing us to provide our wishes.

My wish is related to particles. They have been left behind for a few years now.

I have a second one, which is to bring the following pscriptor script in a JRiver ui: - copy files with flexible folder and file names (including sequence #'s) and create M3U8 playlists

I believe that it would be a good idea to actually bring more of these scripts in JRiver; they are based in JRiver users needs, they have been around for a long time and it would be nice for a change to be able to see them integrated in our beloved JRiver.

It has been years that DLNA renderers are working well with JRiver DSP providing the source is coming from JRiver local music. I would like to use DSP with DLNA renderers when playing URL of Radio or WDM JRiver input. Today you can play to the renderer but DSP is bypassed.

abrise · « **Reply #52 on:** November 22, 2023, 02:52:09 am »

Chromecast terminal as zone ? With DSP of course . Chromecast and Airplay are now more popular than DLNA. Even Qobuz windows application can play directly to Chromecast devices but without DSP of course for that we need to go through JRiver.

My primary use: Music
Close second: movies/downloaded tv

Whenever I start MC (displaying an Album-artist view), scrolling noticeably lags.
My machine is powerful enough. It may be the rendering of the album covers (and/or when an artist has multiple albums, you can see a "stack" below the top one).
This is *not* a major annoyance, but it is one that I deal with everyday.

I know it's been mentioned earlier, but I'd really like to see Particles updated/refreshed/overhauled. They are not intuitive at all and difficult to use. This would make DVD/Blu-Ray audio extraction so much easier. If DVD Audio Extractor can figure it out, JRiver could too.

I wish...

to be able add currently played song to favourites list using single button.

Good idea

Now the explanation and context:

JRiver media is running on PC with Windows 10.

I hear nice song from my playlist.

I open JRemote2 on my Android phone... and would like to add this song to favourites list.

Now this song should be visible on favourites list on my PC when Windows version of JRiver is installed and run.

Theater View GUI. We _must_ tune this up. That long thread on using icons ...

I have a related feature request. I recently tried adding unicode characters like a clock🕑, calender 📅🗓 or a photo📷🖼 symbol to a thumbnail text. Despite using an appropriate font (Segoe UI Emoji or Segoe UI Symbol), MC couldn't display them. I assume the reason is that MC doesn't support color fonts yet. Would be a great addition, since these kind of symbols are very useful as they can be displayed next to a duration, date, etc. While the same can probably be done using the img tag, that requires additional resources for sharing. Fonts are already installed everywhere.

Done but only single color

Fun fact: These symbols work in the post editor I'm currently writing in, but are not showing up in the preview.
Edit: But, they do work after posting.

Mostly MCWS-y stuff

> Get JRVR profiles (array of profiles, either with basic identifying information or the entire profile including settings)

> Set JRVR profile for session. Set a 'default' profile to use in a zone for all playback until JRiver is closed or the setting is changed.

> Read DSP Profile Config

> Change DSP Profile Setting

When defining JRemote Views you can select from any Standard views already defined in the desktop app, when you select Add you get a menu to select from including "Library Items from Standard View" which then displays all menu /view options

Yes but there I can only select from very simple standard views, I silll can’t use one of my own JRemote views to just modify a small part of it. That’s what I want.

MikeO · « **Reply #72 on:** November 24, 2023, 07:35:44 am »

I am missing something ,

I added and customized the views for Classical and Rock , then I further added Custom views for Artists (a top 50 List), Artists (all) and so on . All neatly organized in a tree view

When you add a view to JRemote , all these views are available for selection. I stopped using the standard View Set as delivered with MC years ago as I set up my own Customized Views

Create a new view , test it , perfect it import it into JRemote

My JRemote directly mirrors my desktop setup

Simply using the quality of JRiver with its powerful studio DSP with audio players that don't support VST plugins, convolution etc, for example.

At this time the JRiver WDM driver (virtual audio driver) is limited to 192kHz.

That’s the reason for our different experience. I didn’t create JRiver views and mirrored them in JRemote views, I just created JRemote views and now can only use JRiver views as template, but not the previous JRemote views I created.

I just need JRiver as server basis, I don’t work much with views there.

Would be great if also existing JRemote views could be used as template for new JRemote views….or simply be copied/pasted.

How about one wish per product? ...

For JRemote, persistence of the view type (list, list w/thumbnails, album covers) for at least the top-level of Audio selections. For the modern portion of my collection, I like a full album cover view. For the classical music section (organized by composer currently), I'd like just a list. The view type of lower levels can then inherit that choice (if no persistence is available at lower levels).

Good idea

For MC, the ability to have newlines (and possibly horizontal lines) inserted, for visual separation between groups (described in earlier posts of mine and others).

Investigate

jesseinsf · « **Reply #79 on:** November 25, 2023, 09:58:58 pm »

I would like to see the scrolling up and down in the Albums or Artists view become buttery smooth. I do admit that it has gotten a lot better over the years. Anyway, as for the continuous development over the years, I must give the JRiver team an A+. Thanks for you guys' hard work. :-)

whoareyou · « **Reply #81 on:** November 26, 2023, 10:15:23 am »

Ability to create DSP profiles that are associated with an audio zone.

This would provide the ability for a single zone to engage DSP processing via rules based logic.

Yes, you can kind of accomplish this via zones, and various tagging/labeling on individual tracks, but it is kind of a disjointed approach in that you end up with a playlist broken up by each zone.

If an individual zone could engage a set of DSP rules, the processing for the one zone could be unified and would represent the one physical location that the zone truly is meant to represent.

Support for WOL when media shares are offline.
i.e. when trying to play some media in the library and the NAS is offline, send a WOL packet to the offline share and wait until it's online to play the title.
This means that a WOL configuration screen is needed where you provide the MAC address for each server and when we want the WOL packet to be sent for each server (on JRiver start, on playback start, etc).
I've helped the developers of MyMovies and of CMC to test and implement this, I'll be happy to help you test and implement too, it's not very complex.

It uses the last path unless it finds an image file in the folder next to the audio. In that case it will open using the audio file folder.

This seems good to me, but just start a thread if you'd like to discuss.

Two wishes:

#1 - Media Sub-Types: Business, VLOG or Video Blog, Drone, Concert

Good idea

#2 - Ability to Manage External Graphics Editor Files: In my case I use Pixelmator Pro on the Mac (https://www.pixelmator.com/pro). They are graphics package files (file extension is .pxd) but have image previews one can view in Finder. Would love to be able to configure JRiver to include those files in the library, even with limitations. I do tons of graphic creation, video editing, and photography for our business. MC makes my PROFESSIONAL life so much easier because of the digital asset management capabilities. The one big gap is not being able to manage the editor files themselves.

I think that the things I really want are all in Linux (bd playback on Linux, particularly allowing a Linux via the local file option regardless of server OS)

Aka I would use Linux MC more if I could use it easily for video

I have to agree; after all the Linux version has been around for quite a few years now. I'd like to see better video stability for all the Debian derivatives. It seems the video stability varies considerably over the life of each major version, and system wide crashes seem to be the norm when it is not working. OTOH TV support has been very good when used with HD Homerun. I use Ubuntu studio because the low latency kernel eliminates 90% of the latency I've encountered when there are video issues in Ubuntu, and I've had to use Debian. Sound has always been excellent on Linux; as has its audio rendering capabilities.Better Video Stability.

Improved flexibility on cover art/artwork for categories in MC.

I refer to a setting that would allow user to chose a specific folder location for artwork assigned to categories.
Example: When a category is defined by an expression, like if(IsEmpty([Artist Sort Name]), [Artist], [Artist Sort Name]), user can specify to look in the folder \Cover Art\Artists to retrieve the artwork for the expression result.

This could work for any categories defined by an expression or a field and be expanded to Genres, Publishers, Countries, etc. (right now the only possibilities are Artist, Album or Composer).
This would help navigation for views based on categories, especially when exported to JRemote

Thanks!

1. A better real time analyzer that indicates when digital clipping is occurring.
2. I almost exclusively use Theatre View, so I would like an easier way to customize it without having to learn how to code. Maybe even include a customizable window where you can display said real time analyzer or VST displays (e.g. there are some VU meter VST's that I would love to use).

If playing a multi channel movie on a two channel stereo setup, channel count in DSP settings output format changes from "source number of channels" to "2 channels (stereo)".
Please fix that output format is always "source number of channels" if that is selected.
(As it is now, you have to go into settings and change the setting back to "source number of channels")

Thank you.
