JRiver Startup GUI
« on: July 31, 2018, 09:31:47 pm »
Since I dont do upsampling/downsampling, and taking into account that JRiver supports DLNA streaming and its more polished since a couple of years ago.

What I really bothers me its the Media Server startup, I cant make it work no matter what. I tried already hiding JRiver in the login items setting this up in the app or even doing this manually but the GUI keeps popping up.

I'd like to know if there's a workaround or solution to this because I find it totally cumbersome having to start up MediaCenter and/or minimizing it each time.

Currently I'm running High Sierra 10.13.6 (17G65)

Thank you.

I was just doing that !

I read people coming across the same problems.
I uninstalled everything and tried several versions, in MC22 works perfectly, but not in MC24.

Is there a workaround or fix for this?

It's not clear what you're doing.  Try this:

Tools > Options > Startup, then start Media Server on startup.

Whatever option I select, even if at the System Preferences I hide MediaCenter (User Accounts, Login), the GUI appears, it never runs silent, background as it would be a service lets say.

BTW, MC22 started doing the same.

Don't make any changes there.  Just run Media Server on startup.

I believe this is the intended behaviour (for now at least). On Mac and Linux using Media Server only will also always start the MC GUI as well. It may not be easy or simple on those platforms to start only Media Server without the MC GUI starting as well. Unfortunately, Mac and Linux are much different compared to Windows, so this is likely another thing on the list of differences between features and different platforms.

It would probably be benefitial if this list would be made available to the customers.

It is, more-or-less. It doesn't fully document everything though, nor does it look like it's been updated in awhile.

Ah, thanks for the link! Would it make sense to have this as a sticky & up to date post in a current version thread?
