I know that much of the following belongs in JRemote. However, Much of it also applies here. I am desperate to receive guidance on the following......
I have been wrestling with this all week. I just set up a new CAPSv3 Zuma server running JRiver 19. I do have TV running for live TV though I have many tweaks and adjustments to make. But I have figured out how to get it to record to my Synology Diskstation 1812. The problem I am having is that I am unable to get "Video Station" on the Disktation to play the video either on my local laptop or remotely ipad or iphone. I can't get JRiver to play remotely on my iphone or ipad either.
I first had the video settings to jtv. Then read where ts may be more universal so I switched to that. But has not made a difference.
Now, I am aware that the actual file type is most likely what makes the difference...mpg4, mpg2, avchd, etc but I am at a loss where to go from here.
I should also mention that in my research for this I did see where VLC is suggested and it even popped up as a suggestion that it be installed. I have installed VLC on my ipad with no luck. I know I am not doing something right......
Lastly.....I would like to be able to remotely stream live TV from JRiver using JRemote on my ios devices. I even have had a VPN set up to do this.....but, alas, not luck here, either.
I want to record TV in the best possible resolution & format as possible for playback at home as well as remotely on my ios devices.
I know there's a lot here but would really appreciate any guidance anyone might be able to provide.
Thanks for listening!
