J River Media Center / Play Album - tracks not added to playlist in track number order

« on: January 22, 2015, 07:38:30 PM »

The supplied Play Album command, which uses the JRiver.SearchPlay action, doesn't necessarily add the tracks to the playlist in the correct order. So I've tried adding a sort modifier according to the JRiver search expression language as follows:

[Album]=[{1}] ~sort=[Disc #],[Track #]

But it doesn't work. Any ideas?

Bug Reports / Unbale to differentiate Invona voices with the same base name

Using VC 2.1.3.3

I have bought two Ivona TTS voices, Geraint (English Welsh voice) and GeraintCY (Welsh voice). The Welsh one has the CY suffix in Ivona's catalogue and the installer filename has CY too, but after installation they both appear as Geraint in VC's voices list in the TTS plugin.

I can mouse-over the icons for each voice and it shows the correct description for each (English Welsh or Welsh) but whichever one I select for use with VC it always uses the Welsh one, which is the one I installed last.

In Windows settings, I can select them individually. Windows lists the full, correct description in the pull-down list. I suspect VC is just using the display name to select the voice - can it use the full description instead?

J River Media Center / Targetting a zone with plugin commands

« on: December 10, 2014, 06:28:38 PM »

Is it possible to put some sort of zone parameter on the plugin methods, e.g. JRiver.PlayPause? I think all of the MCWS commands accept a zone parameter and it would be nice to be able to pass that without converting all the commands to a Raw command.

My thinking is to be able to control multiple zones without changing the currently active zone on the server. Thinking far ahead, I'm envisaging a microphone in several rooms each connected to a specific instance of VC and controlling one specific zone, set by a variable on launch of VC.
