You ask why I have not updated to a new version of JRiver Media Center. It's quite simple: For all the technical excellence of the product, I have had endless difficulties setting the product up, that is, adjusting the various controls. I had achieved an uneasy truce with the product until I had to reinstall a clean copy of Windows 7. I feel like a blind man learning how to type. Might as well be a room full of monkeys. Were I able to master this maze of adjustments, I'd love to have a new version of JRiver Media Center; until then I have reservations--a blind man learning to drive a Bugatti.
Of course I maximized volume in both Windows and on my sound card. Were JRiver Media Center to have a "reset to default" button, I could test each and every setting until I found one that worked. Alas, that is not the case. Were JRiver to have a systematic workbook to explain each setting, I could read and test. Alas, that is not the case either. Instead, there are a myriad of Wiki articles, each of which may or may not address the issue. Or an endless array of forum posts difficult to navigate.
I think my question is a fair one and deserves a better answer than the condescending superficial one you have given me. I await someone who might answer it better.
