Thanks Bob. I appreciate the intel. Saves doing a trial and error install.
RobertNewPi:
Thanks to the above, I got MC24 up and running on a 3B+ with no previous experience as a result.
I have a problem with the 'without a monitor' set up. I can get to /etc/systemd/system/ but then when I try and create a file (or folder) I'm told I don't have permission to do so. As far as I can see jriver.service doesn't already exist and I need to create it, is that right?

You need to create it using "sudo." So something like:
--- Code: ---sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/jriver.service
--- End code ---
Then enter the text above. I'll add a more explicit explanation to the instructions.
RobertNewPi:
Perfect, thank you!
All restarts as expected. The 3B+ is now playing (headless) from a library on my PC through an IQaudIO Dac+. All good.
RobertNewPi:
Just going off at a slight tangent: I have done another install onto a card which already had moOde audio player installed on Stretch Lite with the intention of running both. Followed the above instructions again and all works fine including the extra 'no monitor bits'. Both players also play fine. My one issue (so far) is that when I view via VNC, moOde is clearly set-up to cover the whole desktop. From a fresh boot, MC opens in a window on top of that and functions normally, however if I then click the moOde desktop that then comes to the front hiding MC.
Is there a simple way of switching between the two? is there a 'bring to front, send to back' type thing? I assume there would be a way of editing the moOde settings somewhere but I haven't gone into that as I wouldn't know where to start. I also wondered about creating a second virtual desktop just for MC - I created the desktop but now don't know how to get MC to open a window in that one. Grateful for any pointers, thanks.
