Title: Serving to another zone - playlist disappears
Post by: Tristar71 on November 21, 2017, 10:15:37 pm

I have JRiver installed on 2 x PC's and feed one to the other zone via my network.
JRiver is installed on both - both are x64 version.

The network has always been stable - but having upgraded to 23 it isn't behaving itself.

I feed the audiophile PC from my NAS through my main PC - so the audio PC receives playlists and appears as a zone in the 'playing now' area. I select an album and choose 'Play to...'  to the other zone which appears on the  'Playing now' screen...

it'll play perhaps a few tracks then the list disappears - ending the playing after the current track

I don't know what you're seeing.

Is this your setup?

NAS --  PC1    -----playing to----->   PC2

Are you controlling it from a phone or from PC1?

Try powering everything down and back up, including the network.

... buffering / waiting between tracks .

... this now seems to show waiting in between playing tracks which kind of ruins continuous playback - especially of a Live album.

I have ensured that the continuous playback  Gapless is ticked on both server / renderer and also turned MEMORY PLAYBACK OFF - This doesn't seem to make a difference whether memory playback is on or off.. .Still shows the message - 'Waiting' in the playing area for about a second before play commences.

Right click on the renderer and under DLNA settings, Enable SetNext support.
