Quick Start Guide for Installing JRiver Mediacenter 27 on an rPi4 2-4-8GB

Wheaten:
I did write this for a reason:

--- Quote ---•   Now we need to open a VNC session to the rPi. Don’t use Microsoft RDP as RDP can’t connect to a console session on Linux. We’ve already installed the VNC server, so we need a VNC Viewer, like “ultraVNC” (windows), or the built in VNC viewer on the MAC “Screen Sharing”.

--- End quote ---

JRiver did start up and is running, but you can't connect via windows RDP to the started console session on Linux. You need a VNC viewer for this.
RDP will create a new session. In this session MC didn't start, as this session did not boot the Pi. And JRiver started during the boot in the first session.

Dennis in FL:
It just dawned on me.....I have a wireless keyboard and mouse and a dongle is always plugged into the USB A port...so I in effect have a keyboard/mouse

Wheaten:
you have a MAC, Unix based. So it will logon to the console session (first user). this session was the booting one and started MC.

Nickandnora:
I have updated to the latest raspberry pi OS.

Nickandnora:
The VNC viewer I was trying to use on my Win 7 desktop is VNC connect, made by RealVNC.   I chose it because RealVNC provides the server software included with official Raspberry Pi OS.
No luck yet.
