I have added quite a number of websites under Connected Media in both Audio and Video. I'd like to add these to an MC installed on another computer without having to manually add each one by one.

I thought the Connected Media might follow in a Library Restore, but these 2 machines do not share a common library.

Is there a way I can 'package' these so they can be imported into another installation of MC on a different PC? I can't seem to export them as a Playlist.

thanks

you find "web media" in the registry : HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JRiver\Media Center 1x\Properties

Thank you for the assistance.

Unfortunately I cannot find it in the Registry under that heading/address.  Actually it is not there under MC16 or MC17.   ?

checked the root ?

i run xp, maybe win7 has another tree structure ?

In Windows 7 it hides in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JRiver\Media Center 17\Properties

OK found it . . . forgot to mention Win7

Anyway, the Web Media is nested among all the other settings so I have no idea how to extract these in a way that they can be inserted into another install as a group.

Anyone have a clue?

Is the export function in Regedit.exe what you are looking for ? You can export the entire HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JRiver\Media Center 17\Properties\WebMedia branch and import it elswhere.

Yes, except that the Web Media branch contains only Netflix (which I do not use).

All my other entries are located in the general Properties root folder in the list of other settings, not within a specific Web Media folder. I could export that but it contains too many settings which I may not wish to restore/add/change into another install location.

Perhaps I did something in error in my method of how I added them for them to wind up there?

AoXoMoXoA, use a shovel 

copy & paste + a decent text editor and you will success..

[AoXoMoXoA]

Are you into Powershell ?

You could try:

Code: [Select]

write-host "Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00"
write-host ""
write-host "[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JRiver\Media Center 17\Properties]"

$Keys = get-itemproperty "HKCU:\Software\JRiver\Media Center 17\Properties" | gm -name "Web Media*"
foreach ($key in $keys) {
  $KeyType = $Key.Definition.Split()[0]
  $KeyValue = $Key.Definition.Split("=",2)[1]
  if ($KeyType -match "System.Int32") {$KeyValue1 = "dword:" + $KeyValue.padleft(8,"0")}
  if ($KeyType -match "System.String") {$KeyValue1 = '"' + $KeyValue + '"'}
  $regKey = '"' + $Key.Name + '"=' + $KeyValue1
  write-host $RegKey
}
write-host ""

You might have to invoke Powershell as administrator and run this command: Set-ExecutionPolicy unrestricted
And reset when you finish with: Set-ExecutionPolicy restricted

Then save the output as an .reg file and run it at your own risc
