Looks like maybe my thumbnails are pulling in now.

Just setup a Mac Studio. I have used JRiver Media Center on my PC's since version 18. I loaded the Mac Media Center 30 it works great except I cannot make it my default player. It is not one of the suggested choices and when I force it as the default when I than click on a media file it opens to a blank screen.  I plays fine if the file is opened with in it but not from outside. I can live without Media Player not deing my default player, "Infuse" is great for the default but it would be nice to be able to open on my long time go to media application.

What type of media file is that?
Also you should see the file associations in right click file dialog "Open With".

Yes I know all about of the "open with" thing. Media Center is not on macOS Ventura's suggested list and you have to force the choice.  What I did was totally blew out v 30 and reloaded it. I paid careful attention to how it loaded. There didn't seem to be any difference in how it loaded this time but as a result of this fresh loading Media Center 30 is now my default player.

I have scoped out the problem. I don't think it is Media Center.  Ventura 13.2.1 does not have the type of global settings for audio/video associations I am used to in Windows. When I try to open a video file from it's file location if it associated with Media Center it will often open to a blank white screen with the sound playing. Close Media Center try it again and it opens normally.  Sometime it will open in Infuse or Quicktime even though Media Center is the default player.  Once I get the file listed in Media Center's library everything is OK from that point. basically I am forcing Ventura to do something it does not want to do.

Everything is now working as I want it. Not really sure what I did that fixed it.
