I agree EA b1405 is a regression over b1402. Very slow again and sometimes nothing is shown for albums, tracks and composers until the remote is killed. Since installation random lags were detected both on the server and IOS app. Best version so far for me was b1402 (local files only).
EDIT. After getting impossible to use with delays of more than 5 seconds before playing, scrolling not responding and empty screens most of the times on ipad, turning off the server and starting over seemed to fix the issues. Reboot/restart was not enough for some strange reason. Server was not needed to be shut down for months.
