[Edit by JimH -- This feature is now in MC17.0.64. More here:
http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/WebGizmo ]
-- back to Matt --
I'm playing with an update for WebPlay / WebRemote to merge them into a single thing that's a bit more Gizmo-like.
I'm not sure if I'll have anything to share before the holiday break, but I at least have this screenshot from my browser. You'll notice that it sizes with the display unlike the current WebPlay so it'll look better on tablets and desktops.

A couple more web browser screenshots today:
(http://files.jriver.com/images/gizmo_web_1.png)
(http://files.jriver.com/images/gizmo_web_2.png)
The remote side might be ready tomorrow. The playback side using HTML 5 for audio (and video someday) is further away.
-
Matt, the design of this is looking nicer than Gizmo. Can't wait to see the playback functionality too. I've seen a JWplayer plugin in Wordpress and it looked good too. My point was to use something community built and maintained for the quickest implentation, easiest maintainance. I don't really have any strong attachment to flowplayer,. Though I've never had any reason to complain about it. I agree that HTML5 would be preferable over flash for when browsing on an iOS device though.

I would love to have some basic playlistmanagement in there like adding/editing/removing

Instructions on the wiki (http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/WebGizmo)
WebGizmo is a browser version of Gizmo. You can start it by entering a URL like this one in your browser:
http://192.168.1.100:52199/gizmo (replace the IP address with the address of the machine where MC is running)
As a test, you can try connecting to it on your local machine by clicking here:
http://localhost:52199/gizmo
As with the Android Gizmo, you can choose to play on your local machine or on the server.
We think this is ideal for iPad, iPhone, and many other devices.
This will eventually replace WebPlay and WebRemote.
It was introduced in MC17.0.64.
-
No captions appear in Firefox. Same if run in "safe mode." Captions do appear in IE and Chrome.
-
What perfect timing!
We are away on holidays but had to remote into my server to install this, it is looking really good at such an early stage, so well done Matt.
Only thing I can't do so far is play videos and tv recordings to the iPad. it would be great if they could stream like when I use a Dlna renderer locally, and for me the only way that worked was to use the mpeg2/DVD option for the DNA server.
Is there a way of setting the video conversion options for webGizmo somehow?
Cheers and happy holidays to everybody and especially the whole hard working JRiver team.

That was easy. Thanks. Obviously, it's a known issue...
-

This may because that part is not finished. Currently it is using Flash (at least on Chrome) which as we know has less than optimal support on iOS... :)
-
On local machine, IE and Safari play all my videos. Firefox plays nothing (black screen, no message). Perhaps I need a Firefox plugin.
On iPhone (Safari), only mp4 videos play. All others end up with error message "Can not download file". Even the video taken by the same iPhone (MOV) would not play.
-
So far it works pretty well with Opera. A couple of questions:
1) Out of curiosity, is there any chance we'll be able to customize the look of it or will it be limited to those of us curious enough to edit the respective CSS files?
2) Is there a possibility that the player can be targeted to a space at the top (i.e., like a "Now Playing" iframe, etc) of the page instead of a new page?
Thanks,

WebGizmo isn't working for me at all.
First, the background. I'm running it in Firefox 9.0.1 with the current version of Adobe Flash installed (on OSX 10.6.8, for the record). The problems I'm seeing with quick tests are:
1. I get no labels of any kind on any of the view items. For example, if I click on Audio from the root of Gizmo, this is what I get:
(http://glynor.com/img/screenshots/MC17-WebGizmo_NoLabels.jpg)
Videos and Images views are the same, and none of the files themselves show any captions at all.
2. Playing an individual audio file starts VERY slowly. I just get a white page in the browser and the GetFile command just sits there loading for a LONG time. The old WebPlay functionality starts up very quickly. I'm running this on a corporate LAN with a 20gbps Internet connection. My home system has a pretty fat upstream pipe by the standards of most American users (I pay for the best cable connection Time Warner offers in my area).
3. Playing an individual video file just gives me an all black page and doesn't seem to do anything. No flash player loads, and the browser doesn't appear to be still loading anything (so maybe I just haven't waited long enough, but it sure doesn't give any user feedback that it will be a while).
4. It is quite tiresome that all of the Web functions of MC still use htaccess style password prompts, which means they aren't "caught" by many password managers and there's no way to say "remember me". It should REALLY have a way to set a cookie so that it automatically logs you in from whatever device you happen to be using.
-
WebGizmo isn't working for me at all.
Just tested it using Firefox 9.0.1 on Windows 7 and got the same exact behavior I reported above, so it isn't a MacOSX thing. Incidentally, I hadn't loaded Firefox on that machine in a while, so when I first opened it, I tested with 7.0.1, and it was also the same, so this isn't a "new Firefox" thing either.

Just tested from home on the server machine itself with Chrome and it works beautifully. I'll try it later with my laptop on the home Wifi connection. Same machine using Firefox results in the same as above (though audio starts very quickly, and loads in Quicktime player of all things).
So, right now at least, it doesn't seem to be Firefox compatible.
-
One comment I have is that the page is not HTML 5. Since JRiver has limited resources trying to be backwards compatible is a bad idea. I've developed for the web in the past and I'd rather have my fingernails ripped out then support multiple browsers in that environment.
I would strongly suggest developing for HTML 5 as it will shortly have the largest audience and will work across browsers. If there is an issue it will be with the browser not your page... Of course there will be some features that are available in one browser of the other, but that is a small hurdle compared to feature and markup differences. You've already hit those kind of problems with Firefox it would seem...
Also by forcing users to upgrade their browsers you will be doing them a favor security wise and will make web developers everywhere cry with joy...
-
It also seems to render correctly on Mobile Safari:
(http://glynor.com/img/screenshots/MC17-WebGizmo_MobleSafari-iPad.png)
iPad
(http://glynor.com/img/screenshots/MC17-WebGizmo_MobileSafari-iPhone.png)
iPhone
Functionally, though, it is something of a mixed bag.
Here Mode (the equivalent of WebPlay):
* Video doesn't work at all. Playing files results in a long loading delay, followed by a GetFile screen (where presumably you can open the file using an installed app, but which typically doesn't actually work).
* Audio seems to work pretty well for playing single tracks. However, wouldn't it be better to start playback with the chosen file, but then continue to play subsequent tracks (like the default behavior of Double Click in MC itself)?
* Play All for Audio doesn't work right (it only plays the first track and stops), and it renders with a screen like this:
(http://glynor.com/img/screenshots/MC17-WebGizmo_MobleSafari-PlayAll.png)
Note: This applies to the standard WebRemote/WebPlay function too. There is no way to play a full album or playlist with WebPlay on Mobile Safari (Gizmo or otherwise). You can only play individual tracks, one at a time.
* Images work correctly if you play a single image.
* Play all for images doesn't work at all and renders with a similar screen to the above, except there is no actual Play button visible:
(http://glynor.com/img/screenshots/MC17-WebGizmo_MobileSafari-PlayAllImages.png)
There Mode (equivalent to WebRemote):
* Audio playback seems to work correctly. Skipping to the next track works, and you can start playing a particular track in an album and then skip to the next track (as you'd expect based on double-click in MC itself).
* The slider controls are broken. The Volume Control is a slider but it doesn't slide. You can select the "slider" but you can't move it. You can adjust volume, but you have to tap the bar itself, which is non-intuitive and doesn't really work well (I can jump from 45% to 16%, but nothing in-between). The position slider doesn't work either. You can select the slider, and then a swipe does jump the music back, but only by a single second, and there is no way to go back or forward any more other than tapping on the bar itself (which has the same problem).
* If Volume Control is disabled in MC the Volume Slider still shows but is set to 0%. It would be better not to show it at all, but wouldn't 100% be more accurate?
* If MC is open on the server and in Theater View mode, it would be nice if playing something would "jump" you to the Playing Now screen. If I'm already in Theater View, it would be slick to have it automatically "react" and show what you'd expect. In Standard View or when just running the Library Server, I'd leave it alone. Theater View is something else though, because it is designed to be full-screen and for "big-screen display". If it is a remote, it should be a remote.
* Images don't work at all. They play the same way as described above for "Here Zone" mode, instead of on the server itself.
* Videos don't work at all. Same as with Images, they behave exactly like they do when you are in the "Here Zone" mode.
Remote Client Zone Connected to a Library Server:
This is an interesting use-case. I have my Library Server running in the basement. When I open MC on the HTPC, it connects to that Library Server. I opened MC on the HTPC, and then opened WebGizmo on the iPad, and selected the appropriate "HTPC Zone" from the Mode list. I could browse around and play Audio files on the HTPC, without having to use a different address to connect to the HTPC itself. Very nice. This worked just like using it in There Mode (see above) with a few additional odd things:
* Once I started Audio playing with the iPad, I wasn't able to stop it with my regular remote. If I hit the Stop command, it would stop playing that song, but then continue in the list to the next track immediately. I didn't try it with my mouse or the keyboard shortcut, but it does not behave this way when I'm playing directly on my Server (which has an identical remote with an identical Girder setup).
* Hitting the View full Playing Now list link takes you to the "old" Playing Now list on the system (not showing the currently playing tracks) until you manually navigate to and display Playing Now in MC on the PC itself. This is related to the similar issue with Tremote discussed in another thread.
-
When I select "Play All" to here (iPhone) for any Audio Album it only plays the first song and then stops.
I have to manually go back to the album track list and then select the next song to play.
I am assuming it should Play All the tracks on the album.
-
I don't have the option to play on the computer running jriver. I only have 2 play here to choose from
-
The first page should have two options.

<title>WebPlay</title>
Should be WebGizmo?
-
This is the coolest thing since, well, Gizmo! One thing I notice is that the play stats don't sync back to MC like they do when playing through my Android.
-
Something else I'm seeing is that the album art isn't always displayed in Windows Media Player (using it at work). If the track that I play is an MP3, then the album art is diplayed within WMP but if the track is a FLAC file then it doesn't show inside WMP.

Here is a page in HTML 5 that uses flowplayer for video. So far renders good on all devices.
http://www.boxee.tv/faq
Doesn't use live streams, but might have some good information on getting the video part working properly under html 5.

Any way to have this update the "Last Played" tag?
-
I really like this stuff! But I would very much like to have a possibility to edit the setup a bit easier. I can simple HTML, but I get lost in the CSS stuff... I would like to . So far I've only translated the text and removed the first page, copying mode.html to index.html (taking me directly to the zone choice screen), and I have removed the option to play on the unit using the Webgizmo (because this is meant to be a pure remote system). But when I try to copy the button with Playing now from the front page to every page, I can't get the size right, and I can't seem to find a way to change the size. And color changes doesn't seem to stick, like back ground images. Maybe I'm just stoopid?
Also is it possible to have the browser go directly to Gizmo when I surf to the correct address? Do I have to change the start page of the library server for that?
-

I'm not sure what you mean.
If you entered this:
192.168.1.100
your browser would use port 80 and expect a web server on the other end.
I suppose you could try running Media Network on port 80, but it might conflict with something else you run.
Normally, you would enter:
192.168.1.100:52199
That uses port 52199.
Easier would be to save the full URL as a link on your desktop. Your browser should allow this.
-
Actually I mean that I can tell my guests: "When you want to listen to something, just surf to http://192.168.0.1:52199 and you'll get directly to Gizmo control." If you understand that. now it would have to be "192.168.0.1:52199/Gizmo" instead. I was just looking to drop that extra step. But that's a small thing compared to be able to personalize the pages.
-
Come to think of it I could probably do that another way: I can use my Server to host a Girder webserver which has a few links in it, and one of them can lead to the Gizmo page. Still an extra step, but at least it's easier to understand for technologically challenged guests.
-
Or setup an IIS server to do URL rewriting for your network.
-
I am testing WebGizmo between 2 PC's. Playback in Zone1 is OK. But, is it possible to play files from library server locally (like tremote)? Video and image playback work, but when I try to play audio locally, it does not work. On clicking "Play All", it tries to download a .m3u playlist? Do I miss something?
-
MrC, good thinking! I can do that, I think. I've done just about everything else that's possible with a Windows 2003 Server, so with a bit of Googling and experimenting it should work out. Thanks!
-
This works great. Is there any way to make the video go full screen? I don't like to see the browser address bar while watching my videos...
-
EDIT: closed and restarted MC and it works now>
hi guys, i can not get this to work neither locally or from remote pc. no firewall or funny apps running. ?
still on trial period. i get the following error
http://192.168.0.203:52199/Gizmo/
or http://localhost:52199/Gizmo/
Oops! This link appears to be broken.
Suggestions:
Search on Google:
any ideas?
-
Also it takes a while from you activate the network components before they're ready for use. So if you try to connect at once you'll probably not get anywhere.
-
When I play video using explorer in windows 7 the display window is quite small. Does any one where I can configure this to go full screen or at least bigger?
thanks
-
Hey Matt good work it's looking nice
Is there no way you can add an alphabet selector instead of or as well as number pagination?
Without that it seems quite difficult to navigate...
And also - I have multiple artist albums separated with delimiters is there any way I can make Gizmo and Webplay for that matter take this into account and be generated just like how I have [Album Artist]&datatype=[LIST]
-
Hi, I've been using WebRemote for around 6 months now and must say I found to be rock solid. Pretty basic functionality and very responsive and even customisable to a point. Works very well for multiploe zones also.
My only criticism was the way it looked - I found it a bit bland, especially compared to MyRiver for our iPad2.
So I guess WebGizmo goes some way to address the blandness for WebRemote, which I guess to some extent it does. I especially like the tiled album art view.
I think overall a great job has been done, however I just have a few queries;
1. When viewing the playlist, is it possible to show the album art and customise what other track details (eg rating) are visible??
2. Is it possible to show 2 panes, so playing now and playlist can be seen at the same time?
3. Also if 2 or more panes were visible, the home screen, playing now plus library browser could always be visible. This is the killer feature of MyRiver for the iPad
4. When viewing a list of tracks in the library, is it really necessary to have to click the "+" before then click add/play/play next/shuffle?? This seems like an unecessary step that wasn't needed in webremote.
5. Also when viewing a list of tracks in library, is it possible to show additional track details such as album art and track rating?? Could this be customised??
6. Not really related to WebGizmo, but have you ever considered an applet/windows gadget that can run on host pc's (just like gizmo and myriver) that doesn't run in a web browser??
Once again great job, the continued support and advancements in MC are very much appreciated!!
Regards
Lee

WebGizmo will continue to be improved. For now, you can't do what you are asking for.
Gizmo is a native app for Android.
You might look at Tremote on the Remotes page of our wiki, depending on what your client hardware is.
-
This is looking good so far but I'm having problems on Audio, Artists and Audio, Albums with the Album Art. Many of the art files are the wrong ones for the Artist or Album. I used to get this with WebRemote too. When I select an artist with several albums, I always get the correct art files. It seems to be quite random. Is this a problem with theGizmo code or the art files/folders?
Nick.
-
Oh & the ability to set rules for file display would be a major bonus.. Because right now my dvd covers and cd covers show up in the pictures sections I could then easily filter them out..

Isn't this available here?: Tools > Options > Media Network > Advanced > Customize views for Gizmo, WebRemote, & Webplay
-
Thanks MrC, I completely missed that.. I think when I was searching I was looking for a dialogue window more akin to the theatre view Rules for File display...
I'm not questioning where you guys put it but that is quite nested away and If I amuse correctly that theatre view was here first? Where you've decided to put this doesn't really follow the natural schema of things
Thanks again
-
Yeah, with so many settings, it can be difficult to find everything. Comes with the territory I suppose.
btw. I'm just a user like you - no affiliation w/JRiver.

I have now been through all of my Cover Art for every audio file and put the cover art inside the flac file tags. This has made no difference to this problem. The Cover Art association inside MC17 is fine but, in WebGizmo, is completely erratic.
I have been running this on my iPad. When I run it on a PC with IE, Safari or Firefox, it works fine. So this is either an IOS/Safari problem or related to running over wi-fi.

Are they jpg files? The file type might matter. See if Safari can display them without conversion. Size might also matter.
-

The files are all .jpg. The image files are generally around 30 to 50kbytes. They all display OK but against the wrong artist or album. Some are correct, many are wrong. The errors vary on refresh. For those in the wrong place, the cover art is always earlier in the sequence than they should be.
The same thing is happening on my iPhone4s.

Does a hard refresh fix it? I'm wondering if it's caching the image.
This would be bad since each run containers have different ids, meaning an image URL will point to a different container each run.
I'll check to see if we're specifying a no-cache header on the server side.
-
I posted this in another thread but no JRiver team member posted so figured I'd throw it in here.
Small bug in WebGizmo... you cannot start video to Play THERE... it will always play HERE. You can control video THERE once it is already started. Seems like a small thing because WebRemote is OK for starting video THERE.
Thx :)

Matt, I have tried clearing the cache on the iPad but it doesn't help. If this was to do with container ids, why wouldn't they all be wrong? Some are right, some are wrong. A page refresh yields a different result every time.
For example, on the current page, the first 11 are right, the next 4 are wrong, the next 4 are right, the next 3 are wrong, the next 2 are right, 1wrong, 2 right, 5 wrong, etc.

Hey Matt
I've tried to set rules for file display for Gizmo
In Tools > Options > Media Network > Advanced > Customise Views for Gizmo
I've used to the following rule..
[Media Type]=[Image] [Filename (path)]="Users\Home\Pictures" [{Flag: Picture}]="Correctly Tagged"
It doesn't work.. I even then tried to add a library item and it wouldn't show either..
Do the options only work for Android Gizmo? And if so will you merge Gizmo & Android Gizmo into one?
Sounds slightly difficult to do that, MC would have to be able to auto generate new html when users add custom views.
Thanks
-
[Media Type]=[Image] [Filename (path)]="Users\Home\Pictures" [{Flag: Picture}]="Correctly Tagged"
Is this path really correct?
-
Yeah it is..
The rule is
Filename (Path) - Contains - "Users\Home\Pictures"
Drive letter doesn't matter this way..

Any suggestions how i get WebGizmo running over my Ipsec/L2tp tunnel? If i give the IP adress my tunnel presents i get remote server not found...

The wiki has an article on "Network Access (http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Network_Access)".

I noticed some time ago. It's rather sparse on information. Beyond give IP address it doesn't get very far.
I figured that much out for myself strangely enough. :-\

It's this part that you might have missed:
The port you use must be accessible (not blocked by a firewall) from outside your network, and you must be using the outside address of your network. A cable modem, for example, has both an inside and an outside address. The outside address is the only one available from the Internet. You can find out what your outside address is by visiting whatsmyip.org.
Addresses like 192.168.0.* or 192.168.1.* are special addresses used only on internal networks. You can't connect to one of these from outside the network, unless your router makes the switch. This is called NAT (Network Address Translation) or port forwarding. You might need, for example, to connect to 214.111.133.10 from outside your network, and your router might convert that to 192.168.0.15. The latter is a sort of "fake" address not available from the Internet.
-
Is there any news on the cover art problem? It is the same in 17.0.68. I also find that, occasionally, one of the cover art files is used as the background.
Nick.
-
I would love to have some basic playlistmanagement in there like adding/editing/removing
Me too!!
This is one are where Gizmo for Android is really lacking...

I have just noticed that the wrong cover art problem also occurs on videos/movies.

If Gizmo on my mobile works fine, why can't i use WebGizmo. (and i did read the wiki and i do know how to type IP's)

On the machine where MC is running, what happens if you enter this in your browser?
localhost:52199
If that works, the problem is network or firewall related. The wiki has a topic called "Network Access (http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Network_Access)".

Any update on WebGizmo functionality in firefox?
Just to cure my curiosity I loaded WebGizmo in FF and the looked at the source code to see if I could figure out anything.
I didn't get very far before I realized it was over my hobbyist level knowledge. I was able to get a player visible by setting the
player based on px instead of %. Once I was able to see the player I was also able to see an error "loaded file is not a
valid media provider". I did a search for that error and it is evidently common so there may be some useful information to
help solve the issue.
Webplay works fine on FF not sure what the differences are between the 2 but I would think if play works then gizmo
shouldn't be too difficult to repair.
-
Am I correct in my assumption that webGizmo only supports video playback in flash, so video playback isn't supported in iPhones and Windows Phone 7 devices?
Thanks

Try using IE.
Is that the same machine as you're running MC on?

Since updating to 17.0.71 I have video working in Firefox 9.0.1 to get it to work I simply edited the Play_Flash.html file in C:\Program Files\J River\Media Center 17\Data\Library Server\Gizmo\Default
I changed height and width from a 100% value to the values below which is pixels you can use which ever values you desire and if you want full screen right click and select toggle fullscreen.
<script type="text/javascript">
jwplayer('player').setup({
'flashplayer': 'scripts/player.swf',
'file': '[File.FlashLink]',
'autostart': 'true',
'height': '768',
'width': '1024',
'duration': '[File.Duration]',
'provider': 'scripts/jrmediaprovider.swf',
'skin': 'scripts/glow.zip',
});Maybe the devs could query for browser type/version and use an if statement to not use % when the browser is mozilla.
Another solution would be to use the screen resolution or window size value to set the player size.
Edit: I have only tested with flv and mp4 as that is how my all my files are encoded.

Great work and very handy.
I have one question: I can not find out if it is possible to restrict access by demanding a password.
I would like to require minimum a password when conecting to my server from the internet (not required from the house intranet). How can this be done?
-
Setup a VNP or an SSH tunnel.

Hi,
I run the MC17.068 on my home PC and I try to run WebGizmo on my PC at work. I get the "Could not connect" message.
I can ping my homepc from work over my VPN network.
I can see the homepc as a computer in my network.
I can run WebGizmo on my homepc when I am at home with "homepc:52199"
I use the same "homepc:52199" with Chrome and IE at work but it doesn't work.
I run W7 on both computers.
Has anyone had the same problem?
-
Take a look at our wiki article called "Network Access (http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Network_Access)". Your address from work needs to be an IP address, colon, port number. It has to be the "outside address" of your home network.
You can test whether your PC is reachable from outside your network while you're still at home. Click on the Access Key in the settings area to begin.
-
Thanks For answering...
But why not introduce a user/password identification posibility....
There is such possibility already as part of the sync capability.. It will be more easy to give friends access and the access can be turned on/off simply by changing the password.?
-
After playing with WebGizmo for a while, I have no problems playing and controlling audio files.
However, when I try to play video files, they only play in the browser even when I select "Player" as the destination. I get similar behavior when using IE9 on the same computer with my library or when tring to acces the library from my iPhone.

Trying to use webgizmo on iphone via safari.
i cannot get webgizmo to play the music so I hear it thru the speakers connected to the (Media Center) host pc.
On the iphone i see "Playing here (click to change)" at top of screen.
I click and try "This Location" the first option and it plays on iphone.
I try again and instead click "Player" and it still plays on iphone??

doesn't work in Gizmo anymore too. The tumbnails come up fine but when you open a movie it's just blackscreen.

Try using IE.
Is that the same machine as you're running MC on?
If so, Media Network may not be running. Go to Tools/Options/Media Network and turn it on.
Same machine, i tried all browsers i have installed, Opera, Firefox, Chrome and IE
Media network is running, a few posts earlier i posted a screenshot of the log
Firewall is open for JRiver since i can connect with Gizmo Android fine.

Is there any news on the cover art problem? It is the same in 17.0.68. I also find that, occasionally, one of the cover art files is used as the background.
Nick.
@Matt. Is there any news on this cover art problem? Is anyone else seeing it on iPad or iPhone? It is really spoiling WebRemote and WebGizmo for me. I can't believe it is anything to do with my setup as it is completely standard in this respect.
Nick.
-
First of all, many thanks for the developer's incredible work here on WebGizmo.
Quick WebGizmo bug report:
-When running WebGizmo on iPad's Safari browser, one of my views gets the cover art and album titles mixed up after about 25 titles or so.
This bug occurs in the stock MC "Albums" view modified to see the albums in random order.
-When you hit "Play All" from album or views on this browser, funny things happen with the quicktime player in the browser window.

What device are you using?
Nick.
-
Here Mode (the equivalent of WebPlay):
* Video doesn't work at all. Playing files results in a long loading delay, followed by a GetFile screen (where presumably you can open the file using an installed app, but which typically doesn't actually work).
* Audio seems to work pretty well for playing single tracks. However, wouldn't it be better to start playback with the chosen file, but then continue to play subsequent tracks (like the default behavior of Double Click in MC itself)?
* Play All for Audio doesn't work right (it only plays the first track and stops), and it renders with a screen like this:
Has there been anything fixed on these fronts?
I tried yesterday as a replacement for PlugPlayer. I can only get one track to play as well.
Thanks!
Patrick
-
The audio problem is related to how the most recent version of iOS handles it. Older versions work. We may be able to find a solution.
Video and images work now, but the build isn't public yet because of other problems.

Thanks Jim! I look forward to the update!

Make sure you have a colon and no spaces between localhost and 52199.

I saw the latest release of MC17 (82) this morning and looked through the long list of changes since 75, hoping there would be something on WebGizmo cover art, but no! Perhaps the correction had been done but not logged in the changes, but no!
The somewhat random association between cover art and the media files (music, videos and pictures) is still happening on i devices. Is there any news on what is causing this and when we might see a fix?

I assume you're using Safari. Could you try another browser?
-
I assume you're using Safari. Could you try another browser?
Remember that we are talking about iPhones and iPads here. The native browser is Safari. I have tried SkyFire and it has the same problem. So is this an ios related problem? Have you guys tried this and seen the problem? It is very easy to detect and happens consistently.
This is a great shame, Jim, because it is potentially a great product but does't work on one of the major mobile platforms.
Nick.

I'm having problems with the artwork layout as well; same as described by NickF and others. It works fine under IE 9 on my desktop, but breaks using Safari under iOS 5.0.1 on my iPad.
I don't know if this helps, but Safari is complaining about line 9 in the HTML code supplied by WebGizmo:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width; initial-scale=1.0; maximum-scale=1.0; user-scalable=0;" />
The error indicated is Viewport argument value "device-width;" for key "width" not recognized. Content ignored.
It also indicates that it has truncated to their numeric prefixes the argument value "1.0;" for initial-scale and maximum-scale as well as the value "0;" for user-scalable.
-
Great work on WebGizmo! The Video playback is working great now.
One UI improvement suggestion (at least for the iPhone): Can you make the volume and play progress slider buttons actually slide? Right now you have to tap them which is a very gross adjustment, especially for those of us with bigger fingers ;) and also move the play time number (e.g., 48 seconds into a 3 minute song) away from the actual adjustment bar (if you're trying to adjust close to where the number currently is, your finger covers the number)?
-
Can you make this item a sticky one, Jim?
-
I try to keep the number of sticky threads to a minimum.
You can find it through the "New Features" thread, which is stickied.
-
Just to let you know that the artwork problem was not resolved at the MC17.0.85 release. I'm not complaining but it would be good to know whether the cause has been determined and whether it can be fixed.
Nick.

I am using a PS3 as a music server and would like to use my HP Touchpad and WebGizmo to control song selections. I tried entering "http://localhost:52199" in the address bar of the browser. It comes back: Error-- Unable to Load Page. I am trying to connect to the network in my house, while in the house. Am I doing something wrong, or is WebOS not compatible? Everything works fine using the PS3 remote.

Well I thought I had good news!! I thought I had fixed the Cover Art problem. Like doug.ca, I had run the Debug Console in my iPad and also in Safari on my PC. Both showed up a problem with the "viewport" code. I checked and found that the syntax is incorrect. Semi-colons have been used as delimiters between the components of viewport. These should be commas. The line should be:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, minimum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0" />
I don't understand why it would have the effect that it did and in my first couple of tests, it seemed to work but on closer examination, there are still errors but fewer, I think. I will check further.

Is anyone having any luck using video conversion with webgizmo? I am trying to use webgizmo on my phone and the videos are buffing to much.
When i'm on my wifi network the video is fine. But even when i'm in a 4G network it's still choppy.
I'd really like to have control over the quality of the video depending on the bandwidth.
Thanks
-
I'd really like to have control over the quality of the video depending on the bandwidth.
Do you mean being able to control the quality from the player in the browser? Just like some video players on a few other sites namely Youtube. I think that would be excellent. Much more usable than having to go in to the options and change it.
I also think that a download button would be handy
-
Yes I use subsonic and I am very spoiled by most it's features. But JMC is just so much better looking and sounding.
I am stuck between two worlds. I want both and JMC is the first media center that makes me think I can have both.
-
It would be nice to eventually see support for tiles list style in Gizmo so that we can see more metadata for movies.
-
Great application.
I found a problem with volume control.
The problem is because the value returned by the server has a comma, perhaps due to the settings of Portugal:
<item Name="Volume"> 0,12999 </ Item>
I add this line to file default.js in line 132:
value = value.replace (",", ".");

Nice detective work.
In a coming build:
Changed: MCWS functions that return a decimal will always use . as the decimal character (unless the value is designed to be displayed to a user like VolumeDisplay, etc.)

The remote side might be ready tomorrow. The playback side using HTML 5 for audio (and video someday) is further away.
Are there any playback improvements coming in V17 for WebGizmo? Specifically for Android devices?
I love that I can bookmark the Play All link for a specific playlist. It would be a much quicker way of starting playback on my Android phone than the current method in Gizmo.

I would like to use a tablet PC as JRiver control. My favored tablet PC - a PRESTIGIO MultiPad 5080 - comes with Android 2.3 and is relative inexpensive but with good performance and usability.

review (only in German) http://www.notebookcheck.com/Test-Prestigio-MultiPad-PMP5080B-Tablet-MID.64382.0.html
Does WebGizmo work with Android 2.3? WebGizmo looks in my eyes as the better solution as Gizmo particularly with a display of 8 inch. Is there a chance to expand WebGizmo for Android?
-
WebGizmo should work on anything that has a browser. It would be best to try it first.

Do you think you guys will use html5 and or Jquery in web webgizmo to make the html equivalent of your nice 3d list styles that are in theatre view?

http://demo.tutorialzine.com/2011/11/pretty-switches-css3-jquery/ (http://demo.tutorialzine.com/2011/11/pretty-switches-css3-jquery/)
This would be really smart for the images section

There are loads of examples on that site. As far as I'm aware of you guys could actually use these examples
http://tutorialzine.com/license/
Even if you guys don't want this sort of stuff, could I still do it myself by changing the Gizmo html files? I'm am unsure as how I would get mc to populate these and a point in the right direction would be most helpful.

On MC17 in Tools > Options > Media Network check "Use Media Network to share this Library".
On your BB Playbook, type in the url of the PC running the MC Library not your BB Playbook or preferably the host name. E.g. http://hostname:52199/Gizmo.

Great progress on WebGizmo guys but I am still struggling to get Video to work at all on my iOS devices (see subject title)
Everything works from Chrome browser on desktop.
Music plays well Here (on iDevice), with the exception of the well documented cover art problem on iOS devices.
When I go to play any sort of video Here (on the iPad), it starts downloading the whole video file, then pops up a window saying GetFile and file size.
It pops up a button to play file in an app, but it won't let me play it in any of the players I have on the iPad (flexplayer, vlc, quicktime, etc)
What is problem here? Is it the players on the iDevices (both my iPad and iPhone running V5.01 iOS have the same issue)
Is it a known problem in WebGizmo? Are we (somewhat understandably) going to blame the Apple prison?
I have WebGizmo set to video convert to MP4 which should run on iOS.
I am running MC17

I have problems with the cover Art in my iPad too. It changes the name in some cover arts. Using native Safari

The Artist or Album names are in alphabetical order. Do you mean that the name is in the wrong place in the order or is it the wrong cover art for the name? If it is the latter, this is a known problem.
Nick.
-
Wrong cover art for the name.
Its an inconvenience, but it runs.
I hope that you were working in solving that problem. I've decided to buy the license of J River next week, so i hope that you solve this problem and Roland Asio problems in the near future.

I'm trying to get this to run on my ipad3 I've followed the instructions: Ip address followed by 52199 but it is not found before search times out. Can you help, please?

Make sure you have the colon before the port.
It may be a firewall issue. Try a browser connection from the same PC, using http://localhost:52199

Hello,
Been using webgizmo for a while now. I use a W7 laptop to control my server running Webgizmo in Chrome. There are a few things I would love to see added. Drill down features and display for the most part-
"Playing Now" page:
-Drill down click on artist to see all of that artists titles (with thumbnails)
-Drill down click on album title and see that album open displaying all tracks (with thumbnails)
-Display album date along with the song title, album title and artist that appear now.
-Much larger cover art display. Right now it displays as a small 2x2 black with most of the page empty.
-Down the road even adding artist bio would be nice. I know some of the other remotes are doing this.
"Playlist" page:
-Add large album art display
-Display album date.
-Add drill down features for artist.
"Albums" page:
-For each album display Artist, Title and Date with drill down. When an album is opened add large artwork display.
"Artist" page:
-When drill down is selected for an artist albums are listed displaying only cover art and date. Add Album Title.
Basically, as I write this I realize that in general I would like albums to always be displayed with the Artist, Album Title and Date along with large coverart. Id' also like for those to have drill down ability.
As an interface, it works very very well. It's fast, accurate and resource friendly but it is also primitive feature wise. My hope is that it evolves because I think it has potential to be a fantastic remote. I also hope this is the appropriate place to make these suggestions. I see some other comments that suggested you can customize what is displayed as far as artist, date, title etc. I could not see how this could be done so if I am missing that please direct me to how to execute.
Thanks!
-
ok - webgizmo is awesome. I can use it on my windows phone and I think it works better than any other app for it - super fast.
How do you play shuffle? I go to an artist or Genre, hit the plus beside Play All and there's no shuffle option there. I thought that's where someone said I'd find it.
-
How do you play shuffle? I go to an artist or Genre, hit the plus beside Play All and there's no shuffle option there. I thought that's where someone said I'd find it.
Currently you can only shuffle above the file level.
For example, at the top of a thumbnail view, hit the plus to the right of the word 'Play All' at the top. Then pick 'Shuffle All'.
If you're looking at a list of text (file level), you can't shuffle. That would make a nice addition.

That doesn't seem to work for me - I browse into a genre where I see a bunch of thumbnails for the different artists in that genre. I hit the + beside play all and the only options I get are Play, Add, Add (as next to play), and Play (only this file)
-
attached screenshots - am I misunderstanding?
-
OK - think I discovered the problem - it's related to IE9 and windows phone IE browser. This happens on both my phone and my PCs. If I change my browser on my PC to use IE8 mode then I get the shuffle option. I'm not sure I can do that on windows phone. How do we report bugs?
-
nope that's not it. It worked once but now continues to go from a list albums or genres to play a single file - No SHUFFLE option?? I even tried google chrome - same problem.
Any suggestions? Don't think I'll use it much without shuffle.
-
may have found a work around. Instead of browsing - search for the genre or artist. That seems to work. Wished browsing worked too.
-
Not sure if this is the correct place to post this but it can be moved if it belongs somewhere else.
1. iphone 4 images are not the correct aspect ratio. I couldn't get video to play but I may not have been patient enough. It could have been buffering.
2. Moto Droid 3 video starts playing pretty quick but buffers every 2 seconds while away from home (just like the app does). I can go to images and see thumbnails but if I select any picture to start the slideshow that it does by default all the images are black.
3. Sony PSVita images look great and I can browse through just fine. Videos are just a black screen, possibly it does not have flash?
4. PS3 plays videos fine but I haven't tried images.

Yes, you can but not with the same instance of WebGizmo. Open another instance in a different tab and select the zone you want. Every instance of WebGizmo is independent but if you have two set to the same zone, they will control the same media file.

I have been using WebGizmo on my laptop to access my HTPC, which has a static IP. I have routed ports 7, 9 and 52199 to that static IP and WebGizmo can access it from inside and outside my network. What I can't achieve is wake on lan. I can start the HTPC using a magic packet sender (using port 9), but it doesn't start up when I start WebGizmo on the laptop. What am I missing?

I have been using (and proselytizing) JR Media Center for over twelve years now, I am a big fan. No other collection can handle 200,000 MP3s, hundreds of movies and over 50,000 photos. I also now use Subsonic because it provides easier external access to my audio for my family and me (via iSub for iDevices & a great web interface for everything else). I would love for MC version 18 to be able to push MKV (and other) video formats to iDevices (locally and over the Internet) so I don't have to find yet a third product for this functionality... iSub is limited by Apple's strangulatory (just made that word up for this) restrictions so MC could fill a huge void. Please...?
Thanks,

Hi
My Webgizmo has stopped working for the last couple of days. The other options like library server etc work, but webgizmo refuses to start.
Can anyone help please?

It could be a firewall problem. Did anything change?
Try powering everything (including LAN devices) down and back up.

Probably a daft question but can you use webgizmo (via iPad) to control spotify?

I have just tried WebGizmo for the first time. Gizmo on my Android tablet works fine but, at least for Audio, WebGizmo is not providing any playback controls or song info (just the album cover). And Play All only plays the 1st song on the album. I have tried both IE 9 and Chrome 24. Have I configured something somewhere incorrectly?
Thanks.

When using WebGizmo on my ipad via Chrome to control MC18 running on my laptop, doing other apps like twitter, etc. causes MC to stop functioning.

I am new to MC and trying to get Webgizmo to work on IOS 7. When I attempt to play via Safari or Chrome I receive an error that the browser cannot download the file type. This works on Android and in a desktop browser.

Can we get a back button included? After selecting an audio file, you have to go all the way through the drill downs to get back to the album you were at previously.
EDIT: To clarify why I would like to have this feature is I am embedding the web address into an android program that does not have the normal "back" button like in a standard web browser.

Yeah I think I'm adding to the general feel of the last few comments:
Any chance we could get some playback display and controls? Just now I wanted to skip to the next track and was surprised to find that I couldn't...

Can we get a back button included? After selecting an audio file, you have to go all the way through the drill downs to get back to the album you were at previously.
EDIT: To clarify why I would like to have this feature is I am embedding the web address into an android program that does not have the normal "back" button like in a standard web browser.
+1 for this! I am in the same boat. I use iRule for whole house automation and have embedded WebGizmo into my app and once you get to your search results the only options is to go home.

(Bumping this WebGizmo thread, since it was linked to in the Wiki.)
Has anyone tried using WebGizmo on the Firestick? Is WebGizmo still being supported? I've had problems with WebGizmo not going full screen on IE and it doesn't update my playcounts to show something has been watched. Is there any support or work on it?
(If not, maybe I can assist?)

Webgizmo is no longer supported. You could try Panel.
