Mediacenter 27 managing with vnc?

(1/2) > >>

Werner:
I want to use JRiver on my Raspberry and manage it from my Mac. I installed Mediacenter27 and can VNC start it on the Raspberry (but not use it because I have no mouse attached. But how can I manage it with VNC? I find no possibility. Last year I used Mediacenter on the Raspberry headless and could access it with (the installation was a horror, but after I was ready, it worked.) Now I have no idea what to do and find no hint. Can anybody help me?

RealVNC works fine for me with the Raspberry Pi - I can manage it from Windows, macOS and Linux (and even my Android phone!). It should already be included in the Raspberry Pi OS (aka Raspbian) repositories.

I had great difficulty seeing the JRiver interface with VNC. I could get to a desktop, but JRiver wasn't accessible.
In the end I found that I had to connect to a specific vnc instance; in my case it's :0, e.g. 192.168.10.10:0. Of course, this could be a peculiarity of my setup.

Awesome Donkey:
Oh, you can fix that easily. Open a terminal and copy and paste the following lines one-by-one...


--- Code: ---cd /boot
sudo nano config.txt
--- End code ---

Then when it loads config.txt add the following lines to the bottom...


--- Code: ---framebuffer_depth=32
framebuffer_ignore_alpha=1
--- End code ---

So it looks like this...



Then press CTRL+O then Enter to write the changes. Then reboot the Pi and it should display fine with Media Center using RealVNC.

The MAC has a built in VNC viewer, “Screen Sharing”
