J River Media Center
« on: February 20, 2012, 03:39:35 PM »
Ok cool, nice work.

I have Jriver 16 so i will test tonight and reply back with feedback.

Hopefully the plugin is universally compatible with 16 & 17.

Thanks once again for doing this....

don't worry about the status bar.  It is a left over and should not even be there.

ok you moved the topic, i was wondering where my post disappeared off too.

i've tried everything xml refuses to generate, did you get that part to work in your testing?

Yes it works perfectly on my system.  Since the plugin is very new I have not implemented much in the way of error handling.

I'm not sure what time zone you are in, but it's past my bed time.  I will try to suggest something tomorrow.  If you could possibly tell me what steps you are taking and what is actually happening as a result that would help.  So far you are just telling me "it does not work" which doesn't really give me a lot to work with.

Gotcha, i had a cousin that played for the eskimoes never knew when he was up or asleep.

I'm on Central U.S. time.

Anywho, i have jriver running and have enabled DLNA per your instructions.

I go to GENXML and JRiver Gen and get the attachment.

So i cant call up songs by artist, album etc.

OK, now we are getting somewhere.  So all the other commands, set volume, playpause, stop, next track, etc.  work for you?

please browse to this address when JRiver is running:

http://localhost:52199/MCWS/v1/Library/Values?Field=Name

Enter a username and password if necessary.  You should get a list of songs in xml format. Save it and send me the xml.  If you have difficulties with this please tell me what browser you are using and I'll give you more details.

If you can get to me early enough I'd like to use TeamViewer to come take a look.  I'm only an hour ahead of you but by 9 o'clock my time (8 central) I'm pretty much toast.

    It doesn't return anything.

    Here are a few things i've found:

    • Previous command only restarts the song it doesn't go to the previous song, it takes a double click of the save and execute button in the command builder to work.
    • The default setting for the TTS voice in the options screen seems to be off.  I have to select Cepstal Diane to get my Cepstral Lawrence voice. This bug appeared in the new release.

Well that explains it.  It should.

That's how JRiver works.  Just put the repeat on two if that's what you want.

 :biglaugh Im not that much of a noob.

I could of told you that, I can get Jriver to create an xml, but i dont know how your pulling the data into yours.

Are you playing your music from the main library or setting up a DLNA Library.

I have the music on the local PC and just dragging and dropping.

Forgot to answer your earlier question, yes all the other commands work....woohooo

I'm not following you.  If you are at home maybe I can take a look using TeamViewer.
