Title: Disable "Wake on lan"
Post by: crisp on November 26, 2020, 05:01:59 pm

JRemote has stopped working for me -- it insists on "wake on lan".

I've googled this and don't understand it. Can I disable it?

The latest Windows 10 mass update broke my JRemote access and I had to reenable JRiver in Windows firewall settings. You will see JRiver Media Center in the list when following the instructions below.

Thanks, but I run JRiver on a Macbook with JRemote on an iPad

Following advice in this thread: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=105232.0

I downloaded Fing. In JRemote settings changed the name of my Macbook to what Fing said it was. JRemote still didn't "wake on LAN"

Checked access key, address, and mac address -- all OK.

Can't check the port -- can't work out how.

So the port number is 52199, same as the number here:

Now I'm really confused

Wake on LAN doesn't use port 52199.  Try Google again.

But what is the basic problem?  It may be a firewall issue, in which case 52199 should be open.  MC uses ports 52100 to 52200.

What should I be googling?

Experimenting with the JRemote settings I enabled 'autoconnect to last server on launch'. Now it can wake the macbook and display the app tools, but says "nothing is currently playing" even though JRiver is playing audio.

You may have JRemote set to play locally, not on the server.

Think I've fixed it. Took a break then looked again at it. Bottom LHC: Current zone, tap to switch. Did so, switched zone and we're back to normal.

Why it changed in the first place I have no idea, but well, it works again.
