MC26 : be able to change Player on the fly
« on: November 05, 2019, 02:35:51 am »

I understand that one server may play different things on different players at once but when you have only one player active, it would be nice to swap to another one without losing track of what is being played.

thanks !

You can do this now by going to Overview in Playing now, and dragging items from the active zone to the one you want to play them on. Not quite what you asked for, but it can be done this way.

Nice idea. But that is not really the same. Plus in most cases you want to do this. You would not easily have access to the standard view/overview. For me,  I would like to send what's playing to jremote. So I can keep listening as I'm leaving the house.

Yes, I see what you mean. I think the closest you can get now is to save your Playing Now to a playlist, and then open that in JRemote

Many thanks for your suggestions.  Just made me realize that I use mainly JRemote to control our servers and players and that it is sadly not supported/ enhanced anymore...

What do you mean?  JRemote still has the same functionality.

Why do people think this? It's been posted multiple times on the forums that JRemote2 for Android is coming very soon. JRemote for iOS will probably get updates and fixes for newer iOS issues too as time goes by.

Sorry I did not follow the forums for the past few months.  I look forward to JRemote2 for Android.
