Good Day,
Here's what we've been working on recently.

MC21 is now the Recommended Version
JRiver Media Center 21 is our recommended version now.  It's stable and easy to install, either as a new program or as an upgrade. Your library and settings from previous versions are automatically transferred.  Please see "Upgrades" below for details for how to upgrade at a discount.  For new purchases, please see "Getting Started below.  

Lost Your License?
Here's how to get it back and Restore Your License.  You can upgrade your old version to a new Master License for $29.98.

JRiver Television
Because Windows Media Center is no longer available, we have a stream of new customers headed our way.  We've made changes to accommodate their needs and plan to make more.

Kickstarter Campaign for Copy Once Support
JRiver has a new Kickstarter campaign, with a video message from our CEO, Jim Hillegass, about a project to add support for Copy Once material from U.S. cable companies.  Kickstarter is a "crowd funding" site, helping small businesses raise money for new products.  Our goal is $100,000.  More on the forum

TV Improvements
The Electronic Program Guide (EPG) changed for the better in MC21.  Percdata is now available, and mc2xml has been updated.  The EPG uses color coding to emphasize categories like news or sports.  Recording Rules can be used to fine tune what is recorded.

Retina and 4K Displays
Media Center has deep support for Retina mode on Mac and 4K monitors on Windows.  Using the latest builds, just plug in your high resolution monitor and enjoy how wonderful Media Center looks.

Doctor Who Playlist Service
Doctor Who can back up your playlists to our server now, and you can download playlists from other users.  This is a fascinating way to find new music.  Any tracks you don't have can be played as samples.  Full access to the tracks is available for a fee.  Several hundred playlists are already available.

DSD
New support for DSD256 (Quad DSD) files in DoP format.  Some DAC's only support DSD in the DoP format.  Added upsampling to DSD256 in DoP format.

Update or Upgrade
If you own an MC21 license, you can just download and install any new build of MC21.  If you own an older version, you can upgrade at a discount.

Id Price Decrease
Our parts costs have dropped, so we've lowered the JRiver Id prices by 10 to 20%.  The Id (rhymes with hid) is a great DLNA Renderer or Server and uses less than 10 watts of electricity.  It's based on the Intel NUC.

QNAP NAS
Our QNAP version has launched.  It's on their App Center.

Good News
We've had another record year for sales of JRiver Media Center, thanks to you.  We really appreciate your continued support.

Warm regards and Happy Holidays!

JRiver
