[How-To] Set up JRiver Media Center 26 in Debian/Ubuntu/Linux Mint
kurosawa:
I tried Gizmo with JRiver Mediacenter25 on Ubuntu.
I can browse the catalog(s) (albums, songs, ...) but when I am trying to play it says "the player has stopped".
I can play everything under Windows 10 with Gizmo.
I would also like to get it working on Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS

So it looks like you're using Gizmo to remote control your Ubuntu instance rather than playing back locally on the phone, right (based on the "playing to server" at the top)? So that suggests that playback on the ubuntu machine is failing for some reason. If you start playback on the ubuntu machine manually (not using gizmo) in MC what happens? Does it play correctly?

If you're trying to play back media on Ubuntu in MC itself, what audio output device are you using? If you're using Pulse (and maybe Default), I don't think it'll work unless you resample everything to 48 kHz. If that's the case, I'd recommend using the hw: or front: outputs for your device if they're available.

So, I've upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and of course Media Center 26 works fine.
If you're on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, I'd highly recommend upgrading to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS ASAP as Media Center 26 will be updated targeting Debian Buster, which won't run on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS anymore because the dependencies are too old. Same goes for Linux Mint 19 and older, unfortunately Linux Mint 20 won't be released for awhile.
Because of that I've removed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Linux Mint 19 from the recommended distros list above.
