Is anyone else having trouble installing on a raspberry pi 4? [Solved]

(1/2) > >>

Nickandnora:
I have a MC 26 master license that I’d like to use for installing JRiver on a raspberry pi 4 with 2G RAM (not the latest 4B model, but its immediate predecessor).  I’ve tried to follow the various guides available on the MC26 and MC27 pages, but so far no success.  I have been able to install the package, but when I try to launch the program from the desktop, it doesn’t launch.
I’m wondering if it’s a compatibility issue with Raspberry Pi OS, since I had it working previously under Buster.  One day I was fooling around with the memory settings on the pi, and it locked and wouldn’t boot.  Won’t do that again.  Had to reformat the SD card and start all over.  But after I updated the OS to prepare for the re-installation, I haven’t been able to get JRiver to work.  Is it a 32-bit vs 64-bit issue? I don’t know, but I can’t figure how to re-install. 

JimH:
Here are the instructions for MC26 and the RPi:

It's not a 32 vs 64 bit issue.

You can also follow the instructions on:

Only thing different is the code installing MC27, for MC26 use this:

--- Code: ---wget -q "http://dist.jriver.com/mediacenter@jriver.com.gpg.key" -O- | sudo apt-key add
sudo wget http://dist.jriver.com/latest/mediacenter/mediacenter26.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mediacenter26.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mediacenter26

--- End code ---

Nickandnora:
Thank you both for your replies.   I had tried following each one of those two to the letter, but neither worked.   Then I tried loading MC27, but no luck.   Maybe I’ve got a corrupt SD card, or one of the files got corrupted, and I need to start all over.   That’s why I posted.  If I’m the only one having a problem, the trouble must be with something I’m not getting quite right.

I also have had no issues with loading MC27 on a rpi4. You are correct that your SD card could be the problem.
