Help pls,  Since installing V108 & now with V109 I have a major problem.

When i start MC I get the following message.

Media Center failed to load the specified library.  It will revert to the default library.

I hit OK


It then says "Media Center Failed to load any library.  this is a critical error, and the program must stop running.  Please reinstall the latest version.

I hit OK


I then get a Windows Box which says "Media Core has encountered a rpoblem and needs to close"

The ONLY way I can get into MC is to start and run is to restore one of my old library backup.  Reinstalling the latest version does NOT work and just gives the same error.

However this only works for 1 instance.  the next time i start my PC and run MC I have to do the same again.

In addition to this when i installed build 106 or 107 I lo0st my registration info, even thought the build was installed over the top.  I had to reinstall my .mjr file.  Only a minor inconvienience but a bit odd all the same.

Please help as currently I cannot really do much work on my library for fear of loosing things.

Cheers

Graham

There's a problem here -- I've seen it with the latest build too.

Any chance you could send me the library backup that only works once? ( matt @ jriver.com )

Thanks for your help. (and patience)

Will do Matt.

I am away from home for a couple of days on business sorry though.  I will send to you on Wednesday.

Thanks for the help.  I have every faith in you and J River collectively that it will be fixed.

Cheers

Graham

You need to delete/move the library files. Should be in the c:\program files\j river\media jukebox\data directory (or media center). All the *.jmd files.

Then you start up MC and then redo the library. Once you have the library the way you want it, do a backup. If you already have a backup, then just replace the files.
