JRemote (iOS) 3.34 has been released.
Changes in this build:
Built with a launch storyboard.
Local video playback to the iPhone/iPad implements the new Media Center 27 video playback method.
Issues still to be addressed:
Themes and dark mode don't always play together nice.
Initial display of the scroll area should be top justified and appears to be centered. (Change in iOS 11)
Quick jump on lists when article sorting is enabled.
Rotation of the playing now screen on 4.7" iPhones (where rotation is supposed to be disabled).
-
Display problem. On my iphone 10 the top and bottom of the JRemote screen overshoots the physical limits of the apple screen so some of the text is obscured.
-
I am experiencing the same display problem as mstan on my iPhone 10. When browsing music while other music is playing, the "now playing" information at the bottom of the phone is partially obscured -- the information field is so far down that it's hard to press it to return to the "now playing" screen."
Even worse, on the "now playing" screen, the information at the top of the screen (Artist/Album/Track) is almost entirely obscured.

Yup, same here, iPhoneX.
-
Same here on my iPhone X and the latest iPad Pro without Touch ID which Needs more room on bottom of iPad.
-
Same problems on IPhone 12. On playing now,
including all tracks playing screen, artist info in
the IPhone cut out area at top.
On any other page the bottom of page is in the
IPhone black Home bar area.
All else seems to work great.
-
There shouldn't be any visible UI changes from version 3.33. Please confirm that these items you are reporting didn't occur on version 3.33.
-
I was excited to see the iOS update for my iPhone X showing full screen. But it’s clearly not right with the aspect ratio. Please see screenshot. Hopefully not a tough fix for the developers. We’ve been waiting for this for awhile now. Please provide ETA. And thanks in advance!
Spence
-
Definitely new behavior on the iPhone 11 Pro Bob.
The display is larger - which does look great btw - however does go beyond the screen as indicated in this thread.
Most of the issues don't show up in a screenshot, as they ignore the areas in question.
-
This is weird as the screenshot should show it cutting off at the top. See attachment again to show what I actually see in JR.
Thanks,
Spence

I only saw these problems when version 3.34 was just auto updated on my phone. So presumably 3.33 has been running since its June release and I have seen no issues until 3.34.
-
The previous version of JR wasn’t full screen on iPhone X and newer models. They just need to fix the aspect ratio for newer devices.
Thanks.
-
3.33 was definitely not full screen like 3.34 is on my iPhone X and iPad Pro. See attached screenshot of bottom of iPad that needs more room.
-
Here also same display problem on iPhone X...
-
Yes indeed, also on iPad Pro 2020. It’s not possible anymore to cue a track with the slider. It gets in conflict with the white line below.
-

I confirm that reported UI issues did not existed in 3.33.
-
I also confirm
-
And yet here, as attached, on my 11 Pro Max, it's ok.
My only moan would be that the album and track info is obscured by the notch. Would be better if that empty space beneath the artwork could be used to bump that info down from behind the notch.
marko.
-
Since we didn’t change anything with regards to the UI from 3.33 the difference is probably related to using a newer version of the development environment.
We’ll see what can be done to fix it.
Since none of the beta testers reported this issue, any of you that are having the issue and would like to get beta’s in the future should send me a PM so I can add you to the beta testers list.
Thanks.
-
Bob & all, apologies for not beta testing 3.34 but the TestFlight description only said “video playback” and I don’t do video. It wasn’t until release I found it also uses unique MC27 features (which I don’t have) and is “built with a launch storyboard” whatever that means. I will be more diligent next time. As an ex-developer I should know better. More fulsome TestFlight descriptions might help too.
Cheers, Ian

Hey Ian, not a problem, that’s why we like to have several beta testers.
I had no idea the development environment had changed enough to cause this.
That’s always a peril when developing for Apple (and I’m a pretty avid Apple user).
I’ve got an iPhone 12 device to test with now and the issue is obvious.
-
My problem is not solved so far with the beta. The cueing bar is still too close to the white line and the end of the screen to be able to be used. In all views/screens.
-
The existing beta is equivalent to the release version.
There won't be a new one before next week at the earliest.

Good morning and Happy Thanksgiving!
I had been running JRemote (purchased way back in 2014) on my iPad (purchased last year). A few months ago, after touching the icon, the app would open and then disappear right away. I am just getting around to the Forum this morning to make this post. V3.34 shows up in my AppStore account but the app does not appear in Settings along with all the other apps. Suggestions for resolving this problem?
Thanks,
Paul
-
While your at it have you noticed the very first splash screen has changed, not an issue just looks odd
-
Just to report back, the cropping is also wrong on my iPhone X and iPhone 11 Pro. I suspect something like this is why it is happening to you on some aspect ratios (and not others): https://leekahseng.medium.com/how-to-solve-the-most-common-interface-problems-when-adapting-apps-ui-for-iphone-x-44c0f3c80d84
JRemote also has long-had the second issue listed in that article, it is worth mentioning.

If you delete JRemote and re-install it you will clear the database and that should fix the open/disappear issue.
JRemote has it's own settings which ar per-server. It only has the stock apple permissions under your iDevice settings.

IIRC I've seen that article before.
The issues are outlined but the fixes don't apply.
JRemote is not made with Xcode and doesn't use interface builder.
-
Yes, I deleted the app, downloaded, and it works fine! Thanks and have a great day.
-
Is there something one can do against the fact that cover art within views is never completely visible as always single covers seem not to be cached and visible? As soon as I switch to another server and back to the original, all the cover art in the one view shown before is complete.
-
Hi,
Have just upgraded to MC27. Have been using MC and JRemote for years and use it almost daily.
Do we have any idea how long it will take for the display errors to be corrected as regards iPhone?
In the now playing screen the artist and track information cannot be read due to the iPhone screen “notch”. The display layout is wong in the latest release.
I appreciate that this is only cosmetic but it is rather annoying.
Any idea on timeframe?
Many thanks 🙏
-
Bob is aware of the display issues and is currently working on a fix.
Cheers

Hi everybody, is it possible to view the images or pdf inside the folder of each album from this app ?
It would be nice to view multiple cover or booklet.
Thanks
-

Yes, works great. Shows up as a paperclip. Select the paperclip from the album view and it will take you to the pdf. A great feature IMO.
-
Any update on the display issue?? I had been looking forward to the display finally fitting my iPhone 11. The latest update made it so much worse than the smaller version for older iPhones. It’s my favorite app and I’m surprised it was pushed live with the obvious issue.
Hope for a fix soon. Thanks.

There is a beta in process. It's slow going but the issue on the bottom of the screen seems to be fixed. Don't expect anything before the New Year.
-
Can I try out the beta?

Hi again, I’m on the album view but I don’t see any paperclip. Maybe is there any option that I need to activate to show that paperclip? I’m using an iPad with last OS.
Thank you
-
Can I try out the beta?
I am unsure how these app updates work, but if the process is slow going to implement, can you perhaps roll back to the previous version in the meantime?
-
I would love to roll back. The new IOS app display issue makes it very difficult to use at times. Can’t click settings, can’t see name I’m searching for, can’t see song title when listening.
I really hope this is fixed soon.
-
Hey, thanks JRiver. I was sent an invite to load a new beta version. See attached pic.
I loaded the app and I’m not seeing any difference with the display issues on my iPhone 11.
Still can’t see the search box populating when searching artist, album, etc. And, the top copy in the now playing screen showing song title is also still cutting off.
I appreciate the beta version and I’m happy to continue testing as any new versions become available.
Thanks guys and good luck!

You're welcome.
The issues with the bottom of the screen is the only thing that's been fixed so far (see the beta release notes).
More coming after new years.
-
Okay. Thanks. The bottom screen does look better.
Appreciate the hard work. Happy New Year and please send along any beta versions when they become available.
Thanks!
-
If possible, can I please try out the beta?
Many thanks 🙏

Hi! I unfortunately have the "Audio streaming error" problem.
Until recently I always used iTunes to rip my CDs into ALAC, discarding iTunes' cover art and instead appending manually one cover art in the 900x900 pix dimensions. JRemote never had a problem reading these ALAC files when streaming from my PC Media Center server.
However, I recently switched to a bit-perfect ripping solution EAC (Exact Audio Copy) to improve the quality of my rips. Now for the first time ever JRemote is not playing my ALAC files that have been ripped with EAC software that uses FFMpeg (Version: 2020-12-27-git-bff6fbead8-essentials_build) as external encoder for ALAC. After the ripping/ALAC conversion, I embed the cover art manually into the music files using iTunes, in a 900X900 size (typically ~300-350kb). The files play perfectly fine on my PC in JRiver Media Center (and any other PC audio app) as well as PlexAmp on my iPhone but JRemote on iPhone Xs gives the audio streaming error. I even tried to reduce the size of the embedded cover art into 600x600pix. No change. It's a pity. Unless there is a fix for JRemote, I will have to retire JRemote and switch to PlexAmp for streaming onto my iPhone... :-(

After a exchange of emails we discovered this know issue with HDTracks (and now I assume EAC with ALAC output) files.

Unsure if this is intentional or a bug, but albums with the same name gets merged even though there is multiple artists and year of release. Both iPad and iPhone. If not a bug, is it possible to seperate it somehow?
-
Look at the tags for Artist, Album, and Album Artist. The wiki explains what they are.
-
Received an email from JRiver today about exciting new things happening within the program. And then I read this:
“JRemote for iOS
A lot of work has been done recently to improve display on different models of iPhones. Most problems should be fixed now.”
Um, it is most definitely not fixed. You can’t see the search bar, when adding text, and you can’t see the song title name at the top in now playing mode. Basically, since the last updat the ratio display is way off and I’m not holding my breath on a fix. It’s just disappointing cause it is a great app and my most used.
But most problems are not fixed.

Most issues implies there's issues still remaining, with that one (if I recall correctly) being one of them. There's a list of some of the known issues in the first post of this topic which are being worked on by Bob.

I agree.
I received the same email this morning and thought exactly the the same as you.
JRemote was also my favourite app until the last update.
I currently have a 3 month (Black Friday) free trial of Roon, and I have to say, the mobile app (iPad and iPhone) are both superb.
My free trial will last until end of Feb. If JRemote not fixed and repaired by then I will have no hesitation paying for Roon, even if it does cost £80 for 12 months!
-
Just uploaded a new beta.
It fixes the notch issues on the simulator and with my iPhone 12.
It also fixes the placement of the search bar and bottom spacing on iPads without a home button.
Dealing with light theme in dark mode is still an issue I'm working on.
-
Thanks. The top looks better in the now playing screen on my iPhone 11. The copy could maybe come down just a little bit though. But search bar still not working when you type into it you can barely see the words typed. See screenshot.
But it’s looking better!
Thanks,
Spence
-
I think it would be nice to move all the copy from the top down a bit including the album image. See my screenshot showing my Roon app screenshot. And the beta JRemote screenshot showing what it currently looks like. I think the copy would look better moved down from the top and the image centered better.
Thanks!

Looks like I overlooked the floating search.
The one in the left Nav menu is fixed.
-
Oh, the global search. I typically search by artist or album. Good work though. Hopefully it’ll be working correctly soon.
Appreciate it!
-
I’m still a newbie on JRemote iOS, so excuse me if this has been discussed before.
I don’t find the Bio information to be very useful. What would work great for me would be linking to the Wikipedia page for the album playing, if one exists, like I have the MC27 link set up.
Anyone else who’d find this useful?

Bob, any idea when the issues with JRemote and an MC server with hidden zones will finally be resolved?
With 334, it doesn't crash any more against my server with hidden zones (thank you!), but when App follows Server is on, JRemote will not change to some zones when ZoneSwitch on the server plays to a different zone. At that point, JRemote becomes very sluggish, even when scrolling, and now playing in JRemote doesn't update (because it's the wrong zone). If I tap JRemote to play a different track, which causes ZoneSwitch to switch back to the zone JRemote still erroneously thinks is active, then JRemote becomes speedy again, and playing now in JRemote updates correctly.
But JRemote just won't follow the server to certain zones. If I manually change zones in JRemote to the active server zone, then it works and I see what's playing now. But I have to go to the zone manually in JRemote: it won't follow the server there.
Thanks for your efforts and the fixes so far, I do appreciate it, but all is not well yet.
-
Hey. The JRemote beta update for my iPhone 11 is working great! Search is fixed! And the aspect ratio looks good too.
Testing looks good and I appreciate the hard work.
Thanks,
Spence

One thing I noticed. I use "light" view for the app. At night it's changing to "dark" view and then in the morning it stays on "dark" view. I actually like the dark view for evening viewing but would prefer it changes to "light" during the day. Not a huge deal as I may prefer "dark" for all viewing as I've never used that setting before. I'm sure it's some odd setting since other apps like my "messages" turn to dark view during the evening and back to light view in the day. I'd love JRemote to work that way too.
Just some feedback.
Thanks,
Spencer

Hi,
could somebody help me and answer if it is possible to send song to certain playlist using JRemote ios on Ipad?
-
Hi,
could somebody help me and answer if it is possible to send song to certain playlist using JRemote ios on Ipad?
yes - though it's not the most intuitive UI for doing so.
if you have a song playing, clicking the "Play" icon in the upper right and JRemote will show your current playlist. click the "Edit" button at the top, and a "-" icon will appear next to each item in the current list. If you click "-", you'll see a list of options for the song, +Playlist -Playlist Delete. Click "+Playlist" and you can add to an existing or create a new playlist.
Note that if you click the "S" icon at the top to just add a new playlist, this fails for me.
I'd post some images but can't at the moment; but I did test and it does work.

iPhone XR / iOS 14.4

Reinstalled with same issue.

thank you very much for your answer :) see below
everything is working as you described. But further could you explain is it possible to send from JRemote to playlist not one single song but all the songs from album , or at least more than one song at once? because it is very time assuming to do this operations with separate song
thank you very much
Rolandas

Rolandas, tap and hold on an album, and a menu will pop up allowing you to play the whole thing.
-
I do not want to listen albums. I want to send album to specific play list (which I made in advance)
Idea is that when I use Remote and listening songs I want to send that album to certain play list in order to fill play list with my favorable songs

I saw it some too in 3.34. It appears to be gone in the beta. I suspect it was an issue with the VS for Mac version 3.34 was built with because that was updated when I made the 3.35 build.

Thank you. I’ve installed the beta and had the same crash upon open. Submitted a crash report.
The crash report doesn't contain a dump. It's like the program never ran.
Not even a splash screen??
Is there something unusual about your configuration? VPN?? Maybe reboot??
-

It works now after uninstalling it and reinstalling from TestFlight. I tried this before the beta from the App Store, but it still crashed.

The thread has kind of evolved into a 3.35 beta. I can add you to the beta testers list if you wish.

I'd be interested in testing as well. I already have TestFlight on my 8 Plus.

Checking back in. It's been over 2 1/2 months since this JRemote 3.34 problem was first reported. Is there a fix on the horizon? If so, is there an ETA?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Is there any news on the app update for iOS?
Have been waiting patiently for two months now.
I use JRemote daily and the iOS screen mapping errors are really quite annoying.
To be honest I would have preferred it if you had left it as it was on the last release.
It would help if we could at least have a date when the new version might be available?
Apart fro this, JRiver is a great product and I am grateful for the continued development of the software.
Many thanks,
Mark H

Most issues implies there's issues still remaining, with that one (if I recall correctly) being one of them. There's a list of some of the known issues in the first post of this topic which are being worked on by Bob.

I second all of this.
Is there any way to make version 3.33 available again, so we could go back to the prior version? In my experience, I never had any issues with 3.33.

Are you trying the beta?

Are you trying the beta?
No - not trying the beta - but happy to do so if it would help?

What problem?
Seriously? :o
I came to search the forum after multiple months of struggling with 3.34 to see if I could learn what could possibly be holding up a patch for the terrible layout of 3.34 on at least the iPhone XR. I guess I got my answer...
-
There's a beta with fixes, which you have to message Bob around being added to TestFlight.
-
Seriously? :o
Yes. You didn't say.

Read the posts on the previous page, Bob has been releasing 3.35 betas for those who are on the beta tester list (which you can join if you ask Bob) that fixes a good number of issues reported.
-
Yes. You didn't say.
I'm not the guy who posted the original question, but whatever.
So, since you basically seem to be implying that your "What problem?" retort to that other guy meant that you actually weren't sure which of the months-long problems with 3.34 he was referring to, I guess I owe you an apology, because I just assumed you were being intentionally obtuse for some reason. I've scanned this thread a few times and can't find anything being discussed that might be a competing problem to the ubiquitous iPhone screen-drawing problem, but I'll re-read it again with stronger glasses on to see if I can find something.
Out of curiosity, does your "Administrator" appellation mean that you are a JRiver employee, or are you just some kind of volunteer bulletin board hall monitor?

I've read the posts and am aware of incremental fixes in the betas, and it's tempting to get on the beta channel. Do you think all users who are getting fed up with this problem should get on the beta? That doesn't strike me as a very good way to roll out fixes.
The truth is I don't really want to run beta software, no more than I want to run freeware. I pay for software expecting to get certified releases. I get that problems come out of left field at times, but if a significant problem with a release can't be patched or fixed within a couple weeks or so of release, it should be pulled and reverted.
The iPhone player interface to this premium product has been broken for almost three months. It's past time to release a fix of one kind or another to the paying customers. I really don't think that's too much to ask.

Thanks everyone for the screenshots and crash info.
Will see if I can get another beta out to address some of the issues.
Hi Bob, please can you kindly send me an invite to test the beta for JRemote iOS.
Many thanks,
Mark

Just a point of information on this, there is no reverting the changes.
Apple requires a launch storyboard now, JRemote never had one, the addition of one created the totally unrelated formatting issues.
There's no going back.
