Hey folks,
Since upgrading to JR22, I no longer can use my JRemote app to put my windows 10 pc to sleep?  Prior to upgrading, it worked perfectly.  Any thoughts?

Nothing else in my setup changed.  This is a dedicated streaming pc, so its pretty bare bones.

MC22 now requires authentication to do some operations like Shutdown and Sleep.  You'll need to enter a username and password in MC and JRemote.  In MC:

Tools > Options > Media Network > Authentication

Then in JRemote, set up a new server with that same username and password.

That should do it.

Brian.

It worked, thank you!

Good to hear.

I meant to mention:  You need to be aware that with authentication turned on JRemote can make CHANGES to your library.  Ratings can be changed, songs can be altered (maybe deleted, not sure), etc.

Good to know!  Thanks!
