Overall the video streaming looks promising and played back smother than via web gizmo on my iPad mini retina!
I agree, and thanks for the landscape format ...
BIG difference
I am however experiencing similar problems ...
I noticed a few things:
1. It takes a while to buffer and play the first frame. 10-15 seconds. I have a fast network with MC hooked up via gigabit Ethernet directly to the latest AirPort Extreme.
I haven't noticed a problem with the video at startup, assuming the data takes time to load, but 15 minutes in the video (MP4) will stop as if the buffer is too slow, and then begin again (as if the buffer is working again). I could accept this type of problem every 15-20 minutes, but the problem is once the
"buffer" problem begins it happens again and repeats every 30 seconds.
However, I don't believe this is a
"buffer" problem per se ... leastwise I don't believe it's a problem with my LAN's bandwidth ... i.e., I have no such problem if I use the Plex app with the Plex server.
3. After a minute or so of playback, the video just stops and goes black. The video must be restarted from the beginning. This has happened in all videos.
Another reason I don't believe the problem is with my LAN is because after putting up with 6-8
"buffer" interruptions, JRemote will simply crash. I haven't been successful with troubleshooting this any further because JRemote currently makes it impossible to advance to the point of the problems first beginning (e.g., 20 minutes into the video).
Please fix this, or allow us to troubleshoot these types of problems further (e.g., create a debug mode that would allow you to receive pertinent and useful information that we cannot provide). JRemote's video is otherwise useless as is. In the mean time, I'll come back with addition info if I believe it is pertinent ...
Thanks for this app! ... and TIA for its continued development!!
iPhone 5s, and most recent version of JRemote (how do I find it's version?)
