This can happen if you run MC with sudo. MC should always run a user, not with root permissions.
You can try this to fix it:
As the MC user (in the case above your user is tester), with MC not running, do this...
chown -R tester ~/.jriver
This should run with no errors. If you get an error do:
sudo chown -R tester ~/.jriver
Report your results please.

Greetings:
My bad for not loading MC as non Root. I have done MC loading as non Root before, but due to the fact that I have re-installed Ubuntu and MC several times, I forgot about setting up a non Root account.
Thanks for reminding me.
Your code worked with no errors, but still will not let me import my 10 mkv rips, even when I copied or moved them to different drives.
So I just "Cleared out" the entire database, got my Windows backup zip of 07/17/2017, restored only the settings.
Then I re-ripped all new 10 BDs, just to be sure those got in.
The rips got imported, then I set up the folders to watch for. All 1500* rips are present in a fresh database.
I think the database was corrupt.
In any way The imports work very well now..
Thanks Thanks Thanks.

Lots of DLNA changes. Could use some feedback on these...

Also, hopefully video playback didn't break (much).

Thanks for looking at this audio issues.
I set up three different settings Generic, Sony, and Samsung each different from the other using conversion or not to convert.
The screen is not as sluggish as it used to.
The audio is still dragging especially at the opening logo and this also affects the video sluggish a bit. The audio still breaks, pulsating/jumping on all three settings.
Now, here is a sort of new info.
In the past year, MC 32 bit Windows, I have a Sony HDR.camp mkv demo and Panasonic GHA Lumix demo. These demos play , sound not distorted, but the only commonality in terms of problem is the stop and go video, but the 4K pictures are gorgeous.
When 64 bit MC was introduced, I also tested these demos, same pause and go. No different between between 64 bit and 32 bit .
On the Ubuntu 64 bit, it is not as good in terms of audio being reproduced.
I just wanted to mention this. The mkvs now have Dolby Atmos, Dts X and all the modern 3D audio , maybe maybe this is where the issues are.
Also, the write up on MC 23.0.70 mentions the slider... <grin>.
I see no slider. It is still same interface as before.
In the past, attempts were made or suggestions made for me to insert different values in the Audio - buffering field.
I tried maybe 20 different combination of numbers, with no success. Too bad the windows version does not have numeric values, if it does, I would have used the values there to test.
I know something must been affecting the audio in video .
Also, What have you noticed in terms of playback on those sample mkvs?
Can you please throw in some values to see if it will make any difference?
Can Lav filter be integrated for testing purpose?
I will continue to play with settings over the week end.
Thanks.

Video playback is slightly faster when it does not pulsate. Video quality, is better, I noticed. It looks like 3D with an attitude <grin>.
What part is LAV filter playing on this.
Lav as far as I read about will play 4k and handle audio very well.
Can it be integrated for testing?
The windows counterpart has Option- General- Video choice of video card in here, We do not have this under Linus.
All these little differences may contribute to Linux platform playing well or not under DLNA. <grin>
This is my humble opinion.
Thanks.
George
