Many thanks!   However, while audio streaming to "This Device" works fine, video streaming to "This Device" doesn't seem to work.  Any suggestions?

[Boldlygo]

Works great! Thanks!

[Prelude]

Wonderful. Thank you very much. 

[firedog]

Better than previous version which crashed every other song on my iPad mini 1

This version still crashing relatively often; not stable like previous version on previous version of iOS

[amsco15]

Thanks for the quick turn around JRiver.  Works in all the important ways; however, can anyone confirm if "Assets" work or not?  For me, it doesn't!

[Afrosheen]

The app automatically updated on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.4 and now it crashes immediately upon start.  Is there a way to revert back to 3.10?

Here are the crash logs:

Assets are working for me on ios 9. The ios update is a barrel of fun every year.

Hi there,

Sorry to post this question in this thread. Just updated the iOS 9 and jremote update. And could not get to the settings tab to add new music servers. It is just me or do others have the same issue. Thanks for the update and keeping current with the OS

[Heathwood99]

Many thanks for this, now controlling Stream Magic OK!

 

[Sky King]

Well done!

Did you try powering down and back up on both sides?

[Cinelder]

Re: Video Streaming - This still works fine using WebGizmo, but no longer works (at least for me) using JRemote.  I notice in the App Store "Details" description of this version that, while there is an extensive description of JRemote's audiio streaming capabilities (i.e., "JRemote lets you stream all your audio files to the device itself..."), there is no longer mention of any video streaming capability.  Clarification would be most appreciated.

[Claude Lapalme]

I can also confirm that even though video quality settings are still present, videos no longer plays. Is JRiver committed to supporting videos in future versions of JRemote?

[Peregrino]

Assets don't work for me either on the new version; using 5s.

[amsco15]

Double checked on "Assets" feature this morning.  Still not working!  iPad mini 1 and iPhone 5s both with iOS 9.  Worked before the JRemote update.

[klauss]

I installed JRemote for iOS 9 on my iPad mini and my iPod. While I still can play audio files from my library, I can't get any video to play. When I click on a video, the player opens but never starts playing. This used to work just fine. My server runs Win10 Pro with JRiver 21.

[firedog]

Thanks, that seems to have worked.

[glynor]

I can confirm here that video streaming is not working on my iPhone 6, nor my iPad Mini 2.  Haven't tried with my iPad 3 yet.

Everything else seems to be fine. Audio streaming works fine (both on LAN and over Internet).

[BartMan01]

Haven't tried with my iPad 3 yet.

Just tested iPad 3, not working on that either.

[sorepinky]

All good on iPad Mini 2 here.  Thanks.

[Hilton]

No video on iPhone 6+ either.

And what's this 50% in top left?

[glynor]

I merged in a couple of additional posts about Video not working which were in a separate thread.  Figured since this one mentioned video not working in the very first post, it was better to have one thread than two.

[glynor]

I also split out the posts about connection difficulties, as suggested by Jim earlier, here:

Video works fine on my iPhone 4s with iOS 8.4 and JRemote v 3.20.

I'm wondering if it's an iOS9 only issue or a 64 bit vs 32 bit iOS issue..
I'm not ready to upgrade my 4s to iOS9 quite yet. Is there anyone out there with a 32 bit device (like an iPhone 4s or iPhone 5 (no suffix) that is running iOS9 that can give us a report on video?

[sdmarquart]

I updated on my iphone 6 and it's working fine! I use it for audio only so can't comment on video issues. The only thing is the little "50%" thing in the upper left hand corner in the now playing screen.

Thanks so much for getting this updated quickly! We really appreciate all you guys do!

[glynor]

The iPad 3 is 32 bit only, and report above indicates that doesn't work either. I haven't tried with mine yet to confirm though.

For the record, if you're on iOS 8, then iOS 9 won't hurt performance on a 4s or 5.  It isn't better, but also not worse.  There's an article about it on Ars Technica.

I've tried several videos on my 4s with iOS 9 and JRemote 3.20. Playback won't start. The same issue is with my iPad Air 2 (iOS 9 and JRemote 3.20, too).

So, with that and with the previous report from the iPad 3, looks like it is a general conflict with iOS 9 and not something 64-bit specific.

Have you tried deleting and re-installing the app?

I don't have an iOS 8.4 64-bit device to test anymore, but others are still using the new version of JRemote with iOS 8.4 without issue (though the reports I've seen are for older 32-bit only CPU based devices).

[Afrosheen]

Yes I've restarted, rebooted, deleted and then reinstalled but nothing.  Did the crash logs help?

Is the IPA of the previous version available?

Just tested on my wife's iPhone 5, no video with iOS9.

I don't think you can downgrade an app that way.

[Afrosheen]

I have root access. I just need to load the ipa and since I bought it I should be good no?

[glynor]

I don't think you can downgrade an app that way.

No, you cannot, but I suggested he do that to see if it solved his crashing problems. The vast majority of crash-on-launch issues are due to either:

* Corrupt saved state data (which can be cleared in the Task Manager by swiping the app away, which also shuts the application down if it is still running but it almost certainly isn't unless it is playing audio or doing GPS in the background)

* Corrupted installation. This happens sometimes when you update to new versions of iOS, particularly if you have to do a wipe and restore from backup. To fix this, the simplest method is to just delete and re-download the app.

It has happened to me with JRemote before, so it was worth trying since the new built seems to fix it for most users.

[glynor]

I have root access.

You have a jailbroken device? That could be your issue right there. Who knows what is going on with it then.

Yes, even with a non-jailbroken device, you can roll back to a previous version through iTunes if you still have the ipa saved. You just have to delete the app off of the device, make sure iTunes doesn't get stupid and update the app (save the IPA somewhere safe in case), and sync it through iTunes. Instructions:
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-re-install-older-version-of-apps-on-iphone-ipad/

Apple does NOT allow you to download old versions of the IPA unless your device/OS does not support the new version. So, you'll have had to have saved it somewhere.  I don't think it would work if you got it from someone else because of the FairPlay encryption on the app package, but I don't have a copy anyway.

EDIT: Seems the last bit isn't true, at least according to the site I linked just above. They say if you get it from a friend, it should work. I don't have a copy though, so I can't help you.

[BartMan01]

Do you have a backup of your system?  I still have the old ipa in my time machine backup on my Mac.

[Bernhard]

Same issue with version 3.20 on two different iPads.
As far as I see, the new version does not show the Album interpret  - see attachment.

Is this a change from 3.1 ? I see this same result on my 4s but only on 1 Album.

[Afrosheen]

Thank you, but iTunes on my Mac Mini had the older version and got it back on my iPhone.  All is finally good.  Four days without music… went into withdrawal mode.

I hope this will be addressed on future versions of JRemote.  

[Bernhard]

Dear Bob,
on a second iPad with version 3.10 connected to the identical database, album artist is shown correct.

Next, on my ipad with 3.20 I do not have this problem with all albums, but with most of them.

[bob]

I don't have an iOS 8.4 64-bit device to test anymore, but others are still using the new version of JRemote with iOS 8.4 without issue (though the reports I've seen are for older 32-bit only CPU based devices).

iPad Mini 2 (64 bit) still running 8.4.1 works fine with the new JRemote 3.20.

[Afrosheen]

iPad Mini 2 (64 bit) still running 8.4.1 works fine with the new JRemote 3.20.

Same device; iPad Mini 2 Retina w/ Cellular running iOS 8.4 and works fine with the new JRemote 3.20. After backing up the IPA of 3.10 on my DropBox, I tried installing 3.2 again on my iPhone and it's a no go.  Crashes immediately.  This issue is iPhone 6 specific running 8.4.

[klauss]

I still can't get video to work on my iPad. I am running the latest everywhere. On my server, I backed up my library and then uninstalled everything. I re-installed thereafter and restored the library. It made no difference. I am trying to play from an iPad as well as an iPod. Neither one works.

On the server, I looked at the activity log in 'Media Network' and one difference I see b/w a client PC that's connected to the server is that the PC when it starts playing performs a GET of http://10.10.10.2:52199/MCWS/v1/File/GetFile?File=filno. I can see that the whole file is being loaded. I would expect the iPad to do the same, but I don't even see this GET request at all. Everything up to this point is working. i.e. file enumeration is working, I see the thumb nails, etc. It's also working when I try to play audio. Just video is not working.

[firedog]

I generally playback music using the minimal "media server" function only and controlling with JRemote.

Since iOS 9 this method only plays back the first song in a playlist - and then loses connection to the playlist (the now playing shows only first song, even though it started with a full playlist displayed). I have to restart JRiver itself to get everything to work again.

If I run the full JRiver MC (not just media server) I don't experience this problem.

I'm running MC 20, JRemote, and Windows 7 64 bit. Everything has updated versions.

I've done things like restarting the server, etc. Doesn't help.

[ounal]

Hello,

The last version (3.20) does not load the pdf booklets for iPad2.

Also, the sample rate is not shown correctly for 24/176 files in the "playlist" view (please see the file attached)

I would also like to be able to see the playlist with a left-swipe action while reading a pdf booklet without closing it. In the previous (working) version, you need to close the booklet to check the playlist.

Thank you.

[Claude Lapalme]

Hello,

The last version does not load the pdf booklets for iPad2.

The fix is apparently in the Apple Store pipeline

[glynor]

3.2.1 is downloading for me now.

[ounal]

Yes, 3.21 has fixed the booklet issue.

However, addressing the other points would be highly appreciated.

[xeroian]

I am using 3.2.1 with iOS 9.0.1 on my ipad3, iphone5 and ipod6.

Predominately I play the music to the iDevice and then on to a DAC. I have spotted two problems, both small but the first is annoying. Actually having written the detail down then both are annoying.

1. On all devices if I pause a piece of music and then hit the iDevice Home button this unpauses the music. I can go back to the app and press pause again but Home will do the same again. The only get around I have is to press Stop which cancels the track.

2. On the iPhone and iPod if I am not already connected to a JRiver server the settings icon is inactive.  So I can't add a server. I had to delete the app and re-install it to add the server which is at my current location. When I go home next week I will have to either delete the app. to put in my home servers or carry a server home under my arm.
