Description
This app is a remote control for JRiver Media Center (MC) software running on a computer (we have no affiliation with JRiver, Inc.). It also can play back media from the MC library locally to the device. It is a music player for Android Auto as well. It supports video, audio, and images on Android TV.
A running copy of JRiver Media Center on a networked computer is required. You must enable "Media Network" in MC for you to be able to connect and access your media. See https://www.jriver.com to install and get more information.
Features: - Control MC playback over wifi with your device - Control separate zones and link/unlink playback between zones - Play audio/music files to your device with optional volume leveling/replay gain adjustment during playback and optional file conversion - Play audio/music files via Android Auto with voice control - Play video files to your device with optional file conversion - View images on your device with optional file conversion - Run macros (list of network commands) when zones are selected or unselected. These can be MCC (control MC) or TCP (control networked A/V equipment). - Device volume buttons can control MC or networked A/V equipment volumes - Create playlists and add files to playlists - Play selected track Artists or Albums in external music apps - Theater View remote control - Connects via https if SSL is enabled in MC - Wake-On-LAN - Download files with offline playback - Seeking during playback - Gapless audio playback - Rating buttons in notification - Custom UI colors - Option for Video playback in external player - Video, audio, and images playback on Android TV - Casting
The free version has the following limitations which can be removed with a $4.99 US per year subscription or $18.99 US one-time in-app purchase: - Can only play first 3 files in Playing Now - Can test but not save zone macro and volume commands - Only 30 seconds of video playback - External video playback is disabled
Notes: - To customize the library items that you can browse edit the MC options: "Tools | Options | Media Network | Advanced | Custom views for JRemote, Gizmo & Panel..." - To have a custom root view for Android Auto (e.g. just browse audio, group artist by letter, etc.) create a root library view named "Auto" in the same options as above - Cover art is intentionally missing from screenshots but will display properly in the app with your library - If you are experiencing unexpected playback STOPPING when playing to the device with the screen off, disable BATTERY OPTIMIZATION for the MO 4Media app: search for "battery optimization" in settings
Android TV: - To have custom root items on the main screen create a root library view named ATV as described in Notes above. - Chapters: Default "chapters" are generated every 5 minutes. You can have specific timed and named chapters by importing a .xml file into your library and setting the Name tag as "VIDEONAME_Chapters" where VIDEONAME is the exact Name tag of the target video for the chapters. The schema of this xml file is that which is produced by extracting the chapters from an MKV file with mkvtoolnix. - Backdrops: To have a backdrop show on the file details screen import at least one image file into your library and set the Name tag to "MOVIENAME_back" or "SERIESNAME_back" where MOVIENAME is the exact Name tag of the target video for the backdrop (SERIESNAME is tv episode series name).
Recent changes: - Fix disconnect and potential crash when playing from a read-only library.

Comments on MO 4Media - remote + player for Android
★★★★★
Lets me just stop you right here, and get right to the point (tl;dr)... if you're looking for the best Android remote control app currently out there for JRiver Media Center, you've found it here with MO 4Media. Why is it the best remote control app? Well, I'll list the two main reasons... 1. Gapless playback that actually works. With JRemote, Gizmo and eos there's no working gapless playback with my Android phone. With MO 4Media, it actually works! This reason alone is why this remote is now my main remote control. 2. It's in active development. Gizmo, JRemote and eos hasn't been updated in several years. In fact, the Gizmo/JRemote developer(s) don't currently plan to update Gizmo or JRemote for the time being. MO 4Media's actively gaining features in a relatively short time when it's almost already on parity with JRemote, Gizmo and eos. It also has other very useful features, including Android Auto support and Android TV support (for video at the time of the writing of this review, audio/images *should* be added soon). So in my opinion, it's already surpassed JRemote, Gizmo and eos with more to come soon!
★★☆☆☆
This could very well be the best JRMC remote, but presently it lacks an important feature. It cannot switch zones, at least I cannot make it do so. It will apparently control other zones, but switching to a zone is not possible. This is unfortunately a direct showstopper for me. JRemote and EOS can both control and switch zones, please implement this feature in MO 4Media.
★★☆☆☆
Unable to purchase / subscribe through settings link, says store unavailable, seems to work ok for Jriver media center, but play store says it's not optimized for my device, it's a Samsung Tab 7+. (I also have a standard Tab 7) it would be too small to use on a phone for Jriver the big screen makes it ideal, what's the deal??
★★☆☆☆
I really wanted to like this app. It's way better than what J River puts out for android. However, I can only give it 2 stars because of 2 things: 1. Android auto is totally broken. It doesn't play music. It doesn't play nice with other music players. It takes over from players which actually work. Had to uninstall because of this. 2. The free version is basically useless.
★★☆☆☆
I just installed MO on my pixel 8 pro and subscribed. Accesses MC and my Sony TV (which is ARC connected to a Sony AV receiver). Shows song on the screen of both as playing with time scrolling by, but no sound on the TV. MC playing directly to the TV works fine. Any suggestions? [Added 11/29 2:30pm - If I don't get any response from the developer by 12/4 I plan to cancel the subscription.]
