JRiver 19 playback


Upgraded from version 17 to 19, whoopie. While I enjoy the sound, I dont feel that the Jriver is all that easy to use for the layman or at least me. The Wikki is all over the place and I've spent hours on Computeraudiophile.com with a plethora of threads.
System is PC, USB out to Benchmark DAC2 HGC. Which has its complexities in itself.
1) I still have the version 17 on my computer which plays fine. The version 19 only plays out of the computer speakers and not out the USB. It played out the USB for a while but alas, not now. Where or what are the settings for this? I dont believe I changed anything, but evidently I must have.
2) The version 17 has six or seven playback options; ASIO, MP3, etc. Where 19 seems to have only three. Is there more that I need to click on to show up in the options?
3) Is there a really good place for setup tips that is a step by step for the techno-impared like me? Simple is what myself (and I am hoping others) need.

Thanks for taking the time to read this and any input.

Sounds like you are looking for the DLNA access key which you will find at Tools>Options>Media Network where you will see the access key up at the top of the Options window.
Yes, what Gz3827 said. You have to generate your own key by checking the box next to "Use Media Network to share this library and enable DLNA"
Good morning; I got it to play last night. Thank you Dtc.
I will see what I can do again this evening to fine tune the player.
I now need to figure out why my PC wont install the USB2 driver. Evidently this will move the performance to where it should be.
You folks are the best. While I actually enjoy some of the work involved, at times it can be very trying on ones nerves.
I have a feeling I'll be back.
Regards, John

Glad you got it working. J River is a very flexible player but it does take some time to learn a lot of the tricks. Unfortunately, their documentation for the new users is pretty skimpy. Their website can be very useful and, in general, people are very helpful. Enjoy your system.
