JRiver on QNAP

<< < (3/3)

Scobie:
I think this might be possible as I seem to remember this happening with a monitor with speakers I have attached via HDMI to my QNAP.

I don't think it did anything in particular, I wasn't actually trying to get sound out of the monitor but it just worked when i played a file.

My MC runs on a Debian VM on the QNAP.

brains4eva:
How do you go about connecting the PI to QNAP?  I've managed to install J river on the PI but tried to add my qnap music library folder (by going to file menu, library, import in jriver) but there aren't any network drives there... only folders that are actually on the pi :(.  Sorry for the noob question

2. Meaning Docker is the only option for running MC on a QNAP NAS. If Synology supports Docker, you might be able to get MC working there too, not sure.
3. This is Docker: https://www.docker.com/ and here's an unofficial MC24 Docker image: https://hub.docker.com/r/jatzoo/jrivermc24/

Like I said above, if you're using audio only (and no video) it's probably easier to buy a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ kit and either install/flash Raspbian to a microSD card and install the ARM version of MC24 for Linux on it or buy a JRiver IdPi microSD card with MC already pre-installed which will work too. Then connect your NAS (either USB or over the network) to the Raspberry Pi and allow the MC running on it to manage your library.

Is there an understandable instruction somewhere here what to do to set up Docker and JRiver 24 for Docker on a QNAP?

Unfortunately with the basic docker link provided and the JR24 link I don't get a clue.
