MC for Mac and MC for Windows Compared

GeorgeBoles:
Thanks Jim.

I am trying to get my head around JRiver for Mac. It is a huge program and I continue to struggle certainly with Macintosh and probably with JRiver - I have only just found a list version of albums and artists (cunningly hidden in the tab at the top of the normal view) as an example. The other problem I have is apparently duplicate albums where I don't have any, and also how to catalogue various versions of the same album. I know it has been gone over before a couple of times, but I still can't identify why it is occurring with my little music collection.

I will battle on this Christmas - because it is too hot to go outside.

Having those album covers viewable will be a pleasant improvement in musical enjoyment when I get that organized too.

Regards,
George.

A couple of more additions to the "not in the Mac version" list:

1.  IR Remote control configuration and integration.
2.  You mention the WDM driver, but it's not super clear whether or not this also covers the ability for MC to take an analog audio input from a line input on a sound card and route it through MC for processing, control, distribution, etc.  Seems like a separate function to me and it's not in the Mac version.

Awesome Donkey:
IMO, WDM driver shouldn't be mentioned on Mac or Linux since it does nothing there.

blgentry:
^ When I said "mentioned" I meant that he has listed WDM as being "not available" on Mac in his master post above.  It just isn't super duper clear that "WDM" also means "analog line input routing" also.  That's all.  :)

I'm not clear on the details of how this works on Windows either. I don't think this has much (if anything) to do with the WDM driver support, which is about playing audio from other applications through MC. But, I haven't ever used the Line In support, and frankly, last I knew, this was discontinued in MC some time ago. I think there might be some kind of sideways "hacked" way to pull it off with either the ASIO or WDM driver support, but I don't remember all of the details.

In any case, I don't think this is a "fully supported" area on the Windows version either, and therefore isn't appropriate for this list. If you can find recent links that prove me wrong, I'll add it.
