I am starting a new generic thread about JRemote for version information and feedback.
The new version 3.05 is now available in the app store. Here is the change log.
Added:
- Scale images in thumbnail view by pinch zooming
- Stream transcoded movies with selectable quality (Seeking not yet fully implemented)
- "Sync play count" added to settings. Will update your play count when streaming to device.
- Every view now shows a header with item count
Changed:
- Local search is now always visible in the lower right corner of the screen.
- Design changes. Basically a lighter light theme and darker dark theme.
- load/save/edit controls added to right edge playlist(iPad).
- load/save playlist moved to dedicated buttons in “Now playing” view (iPad).
- Custom index bar that shows every letter without truncation
Fixed:
- No landscape orientation when streaming movies on iPhone
- PlayDoctor not working correctly
- A number of performance enhancements and smaller bug fixes.
- Generally faster network access.
There is one issue in this version regarding connection checks. It will basically never disconnect even if MC is not reachable.
You have to reconnect manually.
The next version with a fix for this as well as the option to add individual files to playlist will be out very soon.

Yes!!

LesPaul
Have upgraded an iPad Air with no problem.
My iPhone 5s however gets stuck at a loading screen when browsing to an album in many random cases.
This was not present in 3.01 on the iPhone before.
Both devices are on the same wifi network and connecting to the same server
-
iPad Air
I'm no longer able to play anything to "This Device" with this version. It crashes every time I try to play any song in any configuration. Please fix this as soon as you can. I use this method of play with one of my headphone amp/dac setups all the time. :'(
-
I also had a major install issue on my 5s!!! Not sure if it will work on my home network yet but suspect there is a major problem. Sure wish Apple had a way to let you roll back to previous installs.

ditto, i cant play anything, regardless of how i try - playlists, album view, you name it, crashes as soon as i press the play icon.
-
Zero_G, you seem to be right.
It is crashing on local playback when downloading from the app store. When I run it locally it works fine.
I have contacted apple for help on this.
Have also requested an expedited review for a new build i made just in case.

What was your issue?
-
I'm also having a problem playing music files to my iPad 3 from my local music server; when I try the app simply closes.
-
What was your issue?
I'm at work and saw the update available. At first, everything initially installed normally. I loaded the app just to take a quick look. The app loaded normally and looked for JRiver and couldn't find it (as anticipated since I'm not on my network at home and don't have the system configured for remote access). I unloaded the JRemote and went about my business. A couple minutes later, I noticed JRemote was installing again on my phone. Don't understand why but I let it run. The reinstall progress stuck at about 65% complete. At that point, I re-synched my phone to iTunes (phone is connected to my work computer) and JRemote installed again from my computer. I have not checked to see if the program operates correctly since I'm not connected to my home network but it does show version 3.05 as installed when I load the app.
Another odd issue. If I look at the updates purchased on my phone, JRemote does not show up as recently updated (typically listing all the recent changes).
Hope that helps, Dale

Well, after further investigation I have found the cause of the "This device" crash.
A new version has already been uploaded and an expedited review has been requested.
If lucky, the fix should be in the app store later today.
Sorry about the mess.
-
amsco15, seems like your issue is more of an iOS problem. The actual update/install process of JRemote is completely handled by the OS and nothing we have any control over.
-
- Stream transcoded movies with selectable quality (Seeking not yet fully implemented)
On the subject of transcoding, could we have the option to transcode audio to WAV instead of MP3? (actually ALAC would be ideal, but I don't think Media Center has that option)
An option to only transcode unsupported formats would be great.
- Scale images in thumbnail view by pinch zooming
This is a really nice implementation - I wish Media Center handled thumbnail scaling this well.
One thing I don't like is if you change the scale and then step up a level, you have to wait for it to redraw.
For example, set the scale for a top-level view to 3 columns, go down a view (e.g. artist → album) and set it to 8.
Then go back to the artist view - you have to wait for the icons to be shuffled around before you can interact with them. It would be nice if you could skip this.
Something that might be nice would be a "scale to fit" option.
I have a top-level view which has 26 items; A-Z and #
Then it lists artist names, and finally albums.
It might be nice if it scaled from a view which displayed all 26 items on-screen (8 columns) to the minimum number of columns required to display the current items without scrolling. (e.g. 4 columns when there are 8 items, 6 columns when there are 14 etc.)
- Design changes. Basically a lighter light theme and darker dark theme.
This is a nice improvement over the old skin.
It is still a bit "monochrome" and doesn't distinguish between labels and controls very well though, in my opinion, and I wish you would replace the blues/greens with the system colors.
I would like an option to disable the 30/60 controls.
I don't like the search button covering up the albums in the lower-right.
I feel like the search button in the sidebar should be a list item rather than covering it up.
This, combined with moving the thumbnail into the sidebar, has greatly reduced the number of items which can be displayed.
P.S. I hate that the thumbnail height does not match the toolbar height.
- Custom index bar that shows every letter without truncation
Thanks for the fix!
-
6233638, you`re a difficult man to please but I appreciate you input:)
The cover art was moved to make more space for current and future controls. The cost was of course losing vertical space in the menu. I`ll think of ways to gain a few of those pixels back later.
I`ll get back to some of your other comments later.

- Stream transcoded movies with selectable quality (Seeking not yet fully implemented)
Hi Lespaul.
Which movie formats are we now able to stream?
Thanks
-
3.06 is available already.
-
That's great news. I'll try it out after work.
-
Hi Lespaul.

Thanks
You can now stream every format. MC will transcode all unsupported formats.
-
Even on the highest quality setting, video doesn't seem to be 24fps, is it just me?
Using the lower quality settings seem to result in an even lower framerate, so I'm not sure that it's due to something like CPU limitations.

I'm sure I read/heard somewhere that iOS doesn't do anything less than 30fps? Maybe I'm wrong?

JRemote 3.06 when streaming a video, the "time remaining" slide does not appear to show the correct time remaining and does not allow you to slide to the right to advance the video. It does, but only a min or so.
Thank you Les Paul for fixing the landscape video streaming. Great update.
-

Fantastic. I seem to have missed the fanfare of that announcement!
Brilliant news.
-
many thanks for the quick turnaround and fix for 3.05, i've installed 3.06 and can play again. appreciated.
-
Many thanks for such a quick resolution of the local playback problem.
As far as the overall look is concerned, I usually listen with low lighting so the subdued and non garish look of the "dark" option is great in that it doesn't distract, whilst at the same time is easy to read and operate.
To see how it shouldn't (IMHO) be done just look at what Sonos has done to their app. In fact it was that change that made me look for an alternative and I have been very pleased with JRiver with JRemote. Great software backed up by developers who listen. Excellent!
-
Loaded 3.06 on the iPhone 5S and over 4G it seems to be back functioning how it was in 3.01
Will try on WiFi later when I get home, but hopefully that will just work now.
Thanks!
-
Hi and thanks for the update.
I always use the JRemote with the dark theme, but the "splash screen" when it is loading is not dark. It was some versions ago... Could you put a dark splash screen when it is loading?
Here is the screen I am talking about.
(http://s29.postimg.org/rpn1d4jbr/jremote.png)
-
Zone Switching - When starting up JRemote while a song is playing, the right cover and right zone is displayed.
If I play a song which changes to another zone, the album cover will update, but the zone button will not. But if you hit the zone button, JRemote shows the correct zone as Active, but the button still shows the previous zone. And if the Active Zone is not the zone shown on the button, you cannot choose that active zone and have it appear on the button.
I have APP following Server selected in configuration. And I have Pop-Ups enabled too.
-

+1. Really great, that it's working now. Is it possible to turn on subs/change streams when streaming videos to an iPad?
-
Is it possible to turn on subs/change streams when streaming videos to an iPad?
No, it'll use the same streams/subs as MC would use during playback.
If you switch it in MC, it'll "stick" and JRemote will also use another stream or activate subs.

The problem is that you can only have one splash screen. It can`t be changed depending on theme selected.
Anyway, the splash screen will change later, probably to something equally light and dark.

Thank you for reporting, Will be fixed for next version.
The probable cause is the "App follows server" setting.

Odd issue here: when transcoded video streams to an iDevice, the server copy of MC becomes very sluggish, and in fact the computer as a whole slows down as well. Anyone else experiences this?
-

Transcoding requires a lot of CPU power.
For now at least - since it is not hardware accelerated.
-
Decided to hook up to one of the clients instead. It's a faster computer and is only dedicated to MC. It still has to "Samba" the files, but it's a huge improvement. I should really upgrade my workstation ...
-
Thanx les paul
Love the new layout and even faster coverflow super.
-
Aspect ratio is a bit wonky on jtv files. Recorded as 16:9, but shown on iPhone as 4:3 and a bit squashy side-to-side.
Also ISO files are not being streamed (I'm not surprised though!). I guess I'll have to copy all my isos into a folder structure now.
-

The Album art changing is hit or miss...sometimes it changes, sometimes it does not.
Thanks for the reply...
-
I think I was one of the early "complainers" about the color scheme change. I believe in a subsequent update that it was "toned" down somewhat. I hadn't looked at settings recently until I noticed the update today so I believe the ability to turn off the color scheme is new. Anyways I have done so and guess what? I actually prefer the color scheme now. I may have gotten use to it but I like the subtle contrast changes with cover art changes. Please "remove me" from the complainers list. Nice job.

I ran into an issue last night with 3.06...was relaxing in bed with phones on - running a playlist - that contained 12 tracks - several with different bit/sample rates.
But as soon as the first 16/44 track was fading away and moving to the next track (24/96) JRemote simply stopped playing.
I immediately jumped back onto the iPad to see what was up. I found I could play the second track if I finally pressed Play on it. But there was no way it was going to play by itself inside a playlist. I then tried a few 16/44's back to back in same playlist and they played fine.
Finally - the ability to "scrub" into a track - while playing (Using the slider at the bottom of the window) has seemed to have gone south. I found this when trying to immediately go close to the end of a track to test the above sample rate issue.
I would move the scrub slider to say 30 seconds to go - and the app would just freeze. Slider would not move and track would not play.

New version submitted to the app store. Basically just bug fixes.
Version 3.07
Added:
- Icon for refreshing category views
Changed:
- MP4 videos are now streamed without transcoding
Fixed:
- Error when switching between tracks of different frequency
- Loading screen can sometimes get stuck (iPhone)
- "App follows server" not always picking up zone and track changes
Regarding iOS8, I have no issues running beta5 with JRemote. Could someone else running beta5 verify?
-
I noticed that the turn off popups in the settings doesn't work. It always stays on. I have several mkv videos that play about 6 to 7 minutes then stop as if they are done. I need to test all the video formats I have.

JRemote is absolutely brilliant. I'm addicted!
One question:
How do I remove a previously configured server from the remote?
(using latest version, on iPad mini retina)
One suggestion:
Correct spacing between artist and title on the playing now info on bottom left when the title name is longer than one line. (minor, given the speed and overall unparalleled usability!)
One lack of understanding:
When starting play doctor using the current song, the newly generated playlist immediately starts with song 1 of the new playlist and does not allow finish playing the current song. Is there a way to make the current song first in order and finish playing it?
Thanks!!
-
Hi Mike,

(using latest version, on iPad mini retina)
On the settings screen where the servers are listed, swipe left on the server you want to remove. This will reveal the delete button.

This is currently not possible
-
Cool, thanks!
1/ beginner's error. took me a while to discover the delete in the mails and it's a daily routine there now - did not think of that in JRemote. Worked, easy.
2/ nice!
3/ too bad.
Keep up the great development - JRemote made me fall in love again with my music library, 800+ albums at my fingertips with stunning usability!!!
-
LesPaul,
We may have covered this previously but I thought we could bring it up again.
Is there any way we can use play doctor when streaming to the device remotely?
Thanks again for the BEST app ever.
All the best,
Patrick

Thank you Patrick, you have always been a great supporter:)
The current play doctor commands will only create a playlist for a specific zone.
What we need is a new web service query that returns the generated list based on a seed.
I`ll ask Matt if this can be added to MC20.
-
Great!
Cheers.
-
Thanks for the video fix in 3.07 - I can watch videos again!
-
I just discovered the great functionality to Wake on LAN directly from within the app - works great with JRemote and no need for a dedicated separate app. Same with the functionalities to sleep / hibernate / shut down and restart.
A usability improvement suggestion:
Instead of having especially the three sleep / hibernate / shutdown options all the way down inside the server settings - why not put them directly in front within the server line, as icons, left of the info button. This way they'd be immediately accessible with less clicks & scrolling. Wake is perfect the way it is.

I don't know if it's the 3.07 update, or the switch to MC20, but playback of any MP4 video over about 15 minutes long seems to be very unreliable, with playback completely halting at a random point past that.
So far it's happened on about four different videos, roughly 20, 30, 50, and 60 minutes into playback.
Prior to these changes, I have never experienced this.
It just seems to sit there frozen or on a black screen with the "network activity" indicator spinning in the upper-left and the buffer empty.
Stopping playback and restarting it does not seem to help, nor does restarting JRemote. (quitting it by swiping off the screen, rather than resuming)

I agree that these options should be more visible. I think putting them on the same line as the server could get a bit crowded.
What I was thinking was:
On the settings screen, when you are connected, these buttons will appear under the list of servers.

There are definitely some issues with video playback. Playback at this time is completely handled by iOS itself, so there must be something happening in the background.
-
I have a number of small videos (3 to 4 min each).
Would like to play those in JRemote one following another automatically.
Tried adding multiple videos to playing now, but it is not allowed, that I can find.
Then created a playlist, but does not appear to start up the second at the end of the first video in the playlist.
Any thoughts on this problem?

A playlist of videos is basically not supported right now. JRemote will just take the first video it finds in a playlist and hand it over to the iOS video player.
I need to implement a full custom player to get better control of playback including progress and playlist.
Consider video support to still be in a beta stage at this time.
-
Beta it is, would also like the ability to add to playing now for videos...
Thanks for a great product.

Just a small update on 3.09.
As you may know, It was submitted and waiting for approval.
Unfortunately, I had to pull it as I found a bug that was just too serious to release.
I already re-submitted the app, but I believe this may reset the approval time.
Sorry to all the people waiting for it.
The good news is that some recent bug fixes are now a part of the new version.
This is the changelog for the new version:
iOS8 and iPhone 6 optimizations
-Added support for the bigger iPhone 6 models and the retina HD resolution.
Add to playlist
- You can now add media directly to a playlist. Swipe left on any track to reveal the "Add" button.
Bug fixes
- Too small cover art on some devices
- Problem with special characters when finding assets in file path
- Not able to resume local playback when interrupted
- [iPhone] custom views that start with a track view would not load
+ a few smaller bugs fixed.
There are also some cosmetic changes on the iPhone light theme.

Having waited ten days for the update, it looks like we have to wait another ten! While the submission of apps for approval is a lengthy process, this could have been avoid with greater diligence on your part Robert. It wouldn't be so bad if we could go back to 3.07 while we are waiting for 3.09.
When future updates appear, I will wait for confirmation from this board that they are ready to install and are not compromised by bugs. It's a great product Robert and by far the best remote control app but the problems with 3.08 and the delay with 3.09 should not have happened. Perhaps you need to achieve greater integration between your work for JRiver and your work on JRemote.
I'm sure the new version will be worth the wait
-
Not to worry about the delay; good that you spotted the bug.
In the info screens it appears that the actual tag name is listed. Would it be possible for the "Display" name to be listed instead?
For most tag names this would be the same as the actual tag name, but where we have entered a more user friendly "display" name in JRiver it would be good to see that, unless this is controlled by webgizmo, in which case would it be possible for that to be changed?
Regards, Malcolm
-
Never mind, the app is actually in review now, so will probably be released soon.
Apple must have changed the way they handle new builds in the submission process.
JazzDoc, I understand you are getting impatient.
For the next few versions I only intend to work on bugs and stability.
New additions will only include chrome cast and iPhone rotation support.
-
Spoke too soon. It was in review just to be rejected because of a new check they have implemented.
I`m gonna spare you the rest of this soap opera. Let`s just say it`s out when its out.

Unbelievable! I know this isn't your fault Robert but the whole situation seems ridiculous. Is there no way we can revert to 3.07. That one worked well for me and didn't mess up cover art in the 'Now Playing' view.
-
this could have been avoid with greater diligence on your part Robert.
EASY there Doctor. Mistakes are made, including your bad grammar above, and [ALL] software has a bug or two.
When future updates appear, I will wait for confirmation from this board that they are ready to install and are not compromised by bugs.
That is what any smart person does with ANY update for ANY software.
I upgrade JRemote without questioning it because it is always a better version that works great for me, bugs included. It is has been a great app since day 1 and only gets better now that he IS getting integrated as a result of moving over to work for JRiver.
Lighten up,
Patrick

Point taken Patrick. Perhaps I was unnecessarily harsh on Robert, for which I offer him an apology. JRemote is a great product and like yourself, I have always installed previous updates without question as there has never been any visible or tangible disadvantage. 3.0.8 was the first update that presented a visible problem, namely the reduction in cover art image size when in 'Playing Now' mode. I accept that all software will have bugs and that mistakes will be made although I might have hoped that the cover art bug in 3.0.8 would have been corrected prior to release.
I am confident that Robert's professional working relationship with JRiver will improve both Media Center and JRemote and despite the problems with 3.0.8, I remain confident in the product.

Very nice JazzDoc. Nice post.
That said, what device are you having problems with? No problems with my iPhone or iPad?

JRemote works fine with my iPhone although it will only run an older version as I have a 3GS. The problem is with JRemote on my iPad2 (Latest OS installed)
-
JazzDoc, As I said, I understand your frustration. I swear this App Store is gonna give me a heart attack one day.
On Android you can pretty much push out an update in 2 hours. That`s how it should be on iOS as well. If not 2 hours, maybe a day or two at the most.
It is possible to request a faster review process, but you only get two of those each year. And lets be honest, a cover art that is too small is not worth it.
Now, you can become a beta tester for JRemote, that will let you use the new version today. I have sent you an invite on email.
It would be nice to have a small beta team to test new versions on various devices, so if you want to test future versions as well, that would be great.
-
Add me in if you're inviting beta testers. :)

That would be great Robert! Thanks for the invitation. I have checked my email but nothing has come through yet. I have sent my email address to you.
Thanks

The new testflight program from Apple eases the beta testing with more testers:-)
I would be willing to beta test on iphone 6plus and Ipad Air 2.
mka
-
I will not be using the integrated testfight from Apple just yet.
The main issue I have with it right now is that betas have to be reviewed by Apple before you can use them.
I tried submitting the latest version for beta testing,but cancelled it after 2 days of waiting for approval.
This sort of defeats the whole purpose for me, betas should be instantly available for testing.
Will be using the old testflight until Apple ease up on their testing policy.
rilke1999, I`ll send you an invitation.

Hello Lespaul,
Updated to 3.09 version and all seems fine, I love the add to playlist feature!! Thx Lespaul
this is the killer feature I was waiting for a long time. Works very well, Thank you very, very much!!!
It would be great to complete the playlist-features:- add a similar swipe command to persistently delete a single track from playlist in Mediacenter Libary
In playing now view there is a delete command, but this is only to remove from playing now view only. - add an other delete command in the default view, to delete a complete playlist in Mediacenter Libary (hold-gesture on a playlist--> "delete Playlist")
- do auto-refresh to the JRemote-Views after add/delete-commands for track/playlist
would this be possible, Lespaul?
Thanks Erwin

faster, the best way to do this currently is to load the playlist in the "Now playing" view, edit and save.
A swipe command for deleting from a specific playlist would not work well in the regular views. There is no way to know if a file is part of a playlist.
You would have to enter a special playlist editing view where you would first select a playlist and then reorder and delete tracks.
As you can see, this is identical to loading the playlist in "Now playing" and doing the editing.
The only difference is that you would potentially have to interrupt the current playback when doing the editing.
Not sure if this is worth pursuing yet. Either way, the web service commands to do this would have to be added as well.
The current editing commands only work on the "Now Playing" list.

Lespaul, how about the offline feature everyones wants? Any estimate?
I will start to slowly implement this feature soon, but I won't give any estimates. The android version also needs some attention.

I'm curious, are there any comparison images to show what browsing a list is like on say a 4s, 5s, 6, and 6+?
I've been using a 4s for the last few weeks now and while I prefer the physical size of that device, I find navigation in JRemote very cramped.
I'm wanting something faster and with TouchID so I'm trying to decide between the 5s (close to the size I want) or a 6/6+
-
6+. No question. Period, the end.
p.s. The App is working wonderfully on my end. No issues at all other than AT&T's LTE network not being able to stream 24-96 FLACs without dropouts. FYI, full CD Res (16/44) working just fine without drops. No transcoding needed in I dont stumble into the hires world.

Well the 6 is also nice if you don't like big phones like the 6+.
-
Agreed. It is a great phone as well. It just isn't that much smaller.
The top of the screen is still out of reach and it doesn't feel smaller in the pocket.
The extra battery life, 1080 screen and landscape views make the 6+ the one (for me).

I found two issues,
Both on artist/album screens letters placed on the right side gone
When I add an album the pop up screen doesnt disappear until I select another album or artist
+
Dsd album's sampling rate doesn't appear...

I absolutely love the new add to playlist option. JRemote is now the perfect app for me!!! Thanks much for this product. The combination of JRiver and JRemote has changed the way I enjoy my hobby.

+1, I'm seeing this on my iPhone 6 and iPad Air 2 as well.

Think I found a 3.09 bug. Deleting two songs from a playlist sequentially (on the second delete), 3.09 crashes. 3.08 never did under the same scenario. iPhone 5S.

For whatever it's worth, I installed JRiver 20.0.33 today and the delete songs from the playlist problem,described above, is gone! I wouldn't have thought it was a JRiver problem but apparently it was. Another update, sometimes works, sometimes crashes.
