MC29 Won't Connect
AlreadyFree:
I manually downloaded the windows update you suggested but it says that it's already installed. I've also already tried turning off the firewall completely (even though I've already added a rule to allow JRiver) and disabling Security Essentials. I found the url that it's trying to connect to in the log and dropping that in my browser works fine and it downloads the mp3 encoder. I unzipped it into AppData\Roaming\J River\Media Center 29\Plugins\mp3_encoder but JRiver still won't recognize it as installed. I read elsewhere on the forums that JRiver has to have downloaded it automatically before in order for it to register (security measures I'd assume) so I guess that's to be expected. Don't know what else to do.
There was a post several years ago from someone having the same problem and it turned out that some recent server update was the issue. Could that be the case today?
JimH:
Are you running any other security software?
AlreadyFree:
Windows Firewall & Microsoft Security Essentials is all. And they are both turned off.
JimH:
If you have turned off Windows Updates, try turning them back on.
Win7 is not an OS we recommend any longer.
AlreadyFree:
Windows Update isn't turned off. Just the firewall & security essentials, for testing.
I am using Cloudflare DNS. I just thought about that and changed the settings so that it wouldn't be used but that didn't change anything.
Is there any other settings in the wifi properties that could affect it. No other program on my computer has a problem connecting to the internet if allowed through the firewall.
Is MC29 not compatible with Windows 7? From my testing so far everything else seems to be working except downloading needed plugins. Although I can't test video playback at all because it won't download the needed LAVFilters.
