Dumb question: What is attempting to start when we set a port number in the Start Media Server Upon Startup? UPnP & Library Server both?

EDIT*****I got it working SORT OF. I copied the new MC11.exe (renamed it but guess I didn't have to) because I made a new shortcut to the new .exe and added /MediaServer to it. Running! I guess it never got updated after .23 or maybe the .exe name changed???

Now however with the server running in the systray and in MC Options I set the Media Server top use a particular port on startup...I can't access my library on the client (also using .33).

When I place the /mediaserver in the wowsys64 I get an error on the client that states it is not compatible so it's seeing it on the right port; when I run the /mediaserver in system32 it fails to connect.

Since the client is now seeing my server but says it's not a library server or incompatible, I am guessing that Media Serve is actually the UPnP server? There is nothing in the Help file on this. I have something running but when I search for servers I only get my other library from my third PC...so what exactly IS Media Server ....UPnP?



Looking for some assistance with Media Server running on startup; checked MSCONFIG and it's there:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\MC11.exe /MediaServer   (Common Startup)

However this file, MC11.exe, doesn't even exist in System32 folder  ? BUT I did find an instance of MC.11 in the SysWOW64 folder (version 11.0.26.0). Itried making some targets to run the remoteserver.dll but I don't know what I'm really doing; all I get is MC to startup.

My PC has a mediaserve/dll in the instal folder and that's it, the shortcut is gone.


thanks

Looking for some assistance with Media Server running on startup; checked MSCONFIG and it's there:

Check the "JRiver Media Center 11" shortcut group off the Start menu ("Start/Programs/JRiver Media Center11.")  There should be a "Media Server" shortcut located here along with the other MC shortcuts.  Copy this to the "Startup" folder in the Start menu ("Start/Programs/Startup") to have Media Server run on startup.

C:\WINDOWS\System32\MC11.exe /MediaServer   (Common Startup)

However this doesn't even exist in System32 folder

"MC11.exe" is the program.  "/MediaServer" is a command line switch that starts the Media Server.  You won't see the "/MediaServer" part in the System32 folder -- you'll just see "C:\WINDOWS\System32\MC11.exe."  The /MediaServer" switch is added to the Shortcut's "Target" field.
