Title: J-Remote unable to control MC22 / Mac
Post by: Boomzilla on August 06, 2016, 10:02:20 am

I just installed JRiver Media Center 22 for Mac on a spare MacBook Pro. Smooth installation. Then I imported my library from the external RAID drive (about 3 hours, and now it's good). I went to JRiver's Tools - Options panes & enabled DLNA and set up the system for use with J-Remote on my iPad. I generated the key code, manually entered it on the iPad software, and selected the Oppo as the output device.

The J-Remote tells me that I'm connected to the server. I can see all of my files from J-Remote. But when I try to play a track, one of two things happens - Either the song does not play at all or else the cover art loads - the track loads, and the first four or five seconds of the song start to play before the playback stops & the song starts over.

Any idea of why this is happening & what I should do to fix it?

Thanks - Boomzilla

Sounds like your DLNA setup might be the issue.

Trying playing from the computer interface instead of JRemote.  Once you get that working, then go to JRemote.

I can play files (via DLNA over Ethernet) from the server computer.  JRemote still not responsive.

Any ideas?

I deleted J-Remote from the iPad & re-downloaded, installed, & configured it.  Works perfectly now.

Such is life.

Good to hear.

It's JRemote, by the way.
