Docker Image for MC27
HaWi:
I followed this:
https://hub.docker.com/r/shiomax/jrivermc27
Also, Max was extremely helpful with any issues I had (created myself, of course, due to not understanding how things work).
EDIT: I would strongly recommend to use docker compose. I was initially reluctant, coz noob, but it does work like a charm and once you got it tuned to your details it's easy and fail safe

Thanks. I did come across that and it’s the one I was planning to use. But even that just raises more doubt in my capabilities. Lots of reading involved and links to other other aspects of how to get files working. I will keep reading though and try it out this weekend perhaps.

I mean just because there is more stuff to read does not necessarily mean all of it is important for your specific use case.
If you run into any specific problem you can ask about those. I can fix up the guide some more based on that to hopefully make it clearer for others. But obviously by doing that the guide isn´t going to become any shorter, but quite the contrary.

Thanks Max096. Understood. As a beginner it’s the figuring out what is important or not in all that guide. I went on YouTube as well just learn about Docker a little more which I think will help.
I did come across one JRiver Getlib guide that says using Bridge mode was the way to go, but your guide says to use Host. So I was confused there. However your guide seems to make users happy so I will def follow it.
Cheers!

Bridge mode is fine too if you need the flexibility of changing ports. But Ive seen some things not quite work as far as network discovery is concerned and its not easy to fix. But JRiver gives you the option to specify IPs and such and so even if it does not find it you can still connect to it. It may be a problem for some DLNA clients as some dont give you that option. And then if it does not find it you are out of luck.
But this has nothing to do with this image specifically. Its frequently a problem with any image that tries to auto discover things in the network + bridge networking. Technically, your jriver instance isnt in the same network anymore when using bridge networking and that can be a problem.
The license not staying activated is another things, but thats a rather easy fix by providing a mac-address for your container to force it to stay consistent.
