Problems with Mac mini running High Sierra

(1/2) > >>

thresholdman:
I’m been having lots of instability issues with version 24. It seems that I have to reboot my server very often to get the system to work. Prior to version 24 I’d run into issues if the server was pushed an update from apple that I had not installed. It seems that I have to troubleshoot the system very frequently to get it to work. This is not much fun. Anyone having similar issues? Any advice?

Hi,

I am using JRiver on Mac Mini 2012 with Mavericks without major issues. It is not as stable as under Win10 but it works fine. I am not sure if this is of any help to you but that is my experience with Mac version of JRiver.

Duffin:
I was having similar stability issues on my mac mini (5 years old.....), and I have finally decided to move to the iD away from the mini mac because I don't want the hassle with the mac version.

bob:
You might want to try the build I just posted (24.0.45).

We build it on a Mac Mini running High Sierra and it runs nicely here.

thresholdman:
Are there any specific settings that you would suggest that would improve the performance of the min mac and jremote? The specific issues I have are:

1. I need to reboot the mini mac after I have shut down my main audio system (unplugged and biconnected from the ethernet for lightening storms). The mini mac is plugged in at all times. If I don't reboot my renderer will crash when I play music. I use the mini mac as a server which is connected to the renderer via ethernet. I use jremote as a control point.

2. There are times when a jremote instance (i have jremote on an iPhone and an iPad) cannot find the music server.

This has become a frequent problem lately due to the amount of thunder storms we have been having in Cincinnati. I don't want to reboot my mini mac every time I run into an issue. I'm getting to the point where I'm considering alternatives even though I've used river for 5 years.
