Set up JRiver Media Center 23 in Debian/Ubuntu/Linux Mint/Elementary OS
Zhillsguy:
I missed that crucial step. Will do it tonight..... thanks AD.

An update! A tutorial for enabling thread priorities has been added. To do this make sure you have Media Center 23.0.21 or above installed!
Also looks like Debian 9.1 Stretch was released, addressing the APT issues I was having (among other issues). Looks like a good, stable release!

Thanks muchly for the excellent install guide. Worked a treat with very little experience of Ubuntu / Linux in general.
Is there any way of configuring the buttons on a remote? In Theater View, only 2 of the 49 buttons on my generic remote do anything at all (one plays/stops audio and the other plays/stops video), and even one of those isn't where it should be. I use the same remote for another well-known but obviously unmentionable media centre in Ubuntu and the buttons were pretty much on target even before I used a remote configuration add-on...

Hi AwesomeDonkey,
(Where the hell did that name come from . . . sure theres a story ;D)
OK I'm a seasoned MC users but on windows and also the ID.
I'm just setting up to check out MC23 but on Debian 7/8/or9 the machine I have available to do this initial check is an HP 32bit so have been using i386 distro's.
I have followed along with a basic install of Debian 9.1.0 then 7.11.0 but have reached the same point with both . . .
When I get to install MC23 (step 2 in your article I think) it get E: Unable to locate package mediacenter23
If it helps I include the full session after the reboot of the initial debian install (for wheezy 7.11) in an attachment
Please don't assume any Debian experience I'm completely following along here, I do have a solid Windows and other tech background though.
So any ideas from yourself or others. The above occurs in Debian 9 i386 too but I noted that this was not explicitly supported so tried wheezy below.
Hope someone can give me a steer.
Regards
Awesome Donkey:
The MC stable/latest/beta APT repos are in the process of changing right now (e.g. updating to Debian Stretch for 64-bit, Debian Jessie for 32-bit, arches being merged into one mediacenter23.list, etc.) - a couple of them like the beta repo give off 404 errors when trying to check for updates. Once everything stabilizes it'll become easier to install/update MC via the APT repos. Hopefully it means there will be only one mediacenter23.list for each MC repo instead of three for each.
In the meantime I'd manually install MC via the .deb file using sudo dpkg -i 'path to .deb file' in the Terminal.

Believe it or not, it's random. I'm not very good at choosing nicknames so I picked it at random. Seems to have worked out pretty well. ;)
