More > JRiver Media Center 23 for Mac
MacOS High Sierra
aliciaviola:
I installed OS High-Sierra two days ago and there are no problems with MediaCenter. The system is stable and faster than OS Sierra (Mid 2010 Mac Pro Quad-Core).
The only problem that I experienced so far is that Filemaker Pro advanced 11 (32 bit) now regularly crashes. Apple tells that High-Sierra will be the last system that supports 32 bit programs but I suggest that this may be already a problem now.

Hi Guys,
I upgraded to High Sierra last night and experienced some issues with video playback ?. Every time I tried playing a video/movie it starts to play and then JRiver freezes (picture and sound stops playing). Pressing any buttons does nothing. Eventually the OS puts me back on the login page and I need to log in again. Tried updating from build 41 to 52 (clean install) but still get this problem. Playing music work fine, it is only videos. Any idea what could be causing this? Everything worked prior to the update.
Most of my files are on a NAS and JRiver access it via mounted volumes.
Thanks for any help.

Sure it's more advanced than FAT, but OSX doesn't support it natively and I'm very reluctant to load any foreign kernel drivers under OSX. For all of you guys that use Windows as your standard, perhaps this makes sense. For those of us who stay away from all MS products on purpose, using NTFS is a step in the wrong direction. I think we have both shown our biases now. :)

You're the one clearly showing their biases here.
FAT32 and exFAT are no less of a Microsoft product than NTFS is. Just because Apple's native driver operates in read-only mode by default for NTFS drives doesn't change that.
Data integrity is what should matter, and of the three, NTFS should be the most reliable file system.
It might be fine for SD cards in cameras, where that is just temporary storage before being transferred to a computer, but there's no way that I'd trust my data on an external drive formatted to FAT32 or exFAT.

I apologize for de-railing this thread with a Mac file system discussion. Perhaps an admin can split it?
To RD James: Do you have a Mac? Do you use a Mac? If not, your commentary doesn't have a lot of relevance.
Thanks,
Brian.

Yes, I own and use several Macs, and have done since before they made the switch to Intel. Started with a 17" Powerbook G4 in 2003.
I also insist that family members buy Apple hardware, or else they will not receive any tech support help from me. I don't have many issues with Windows myself, but I refuse to support other people's Windows machines.
