Startup Problem [Solved]

<< < (5/5)

Just reporting that I've built a new PC with Windows 11 and installed MC32 and restored from a library back-up from the old W10 PC and this problem does NOT present itself.

However I would like to say that the Wiki in stating that the "Settings portion of a backup contains all settings and options under Tools > Options" is wrong.

Some of those settings relate to madVR and NONE of those were restored! I had to keep both PCs open side-by-side to manually key in the same carefully honed settings over multiple sub-menus. I use madVR exclusively for Blu-ray upscaling to 4K as it absolutely blitzes JRVR for that purpose on a GTX 1080 Ti anyway. JRVR is set up in a different Zone for DVD upscaling to 4K and its settings seemed to restore OK.

JimH:
We don't back up madVR settings.  It's a third party component, and not a part of JRiver.

I would like to report that now on Windows 11 Pro (some weeks or months on and having done nothing new) there are system-corrupting problems caused directly by MC 32 when it is configured to start up as media server only. It causes the display monitor to never power down as set under Windows Power Options and it also disables any screen saver. Removing MC from Windows start-up has my monitor powering down on time and the screen saver return to operative.

BUT before being able to access the library on any client instance of MC on my local network I have to remember to open MC on the server manually.
