Setup JRiver Media Center 21 In Ubuntu/Linux Mint
Jay Fora:
Hi, I have just tried to install MC 21 in linux mint cinnamon 17.2 64 bit. All seemed to go ok.No error messages. Restarted. JRiver repository has been added to software sources, but no sign of media center in menu. In terminal entered command mediacenter21 as you suggested, but got error message 'no such command. What do I do now? Am new to Linux, and Mint, but have some experience of installing software successfully.
An entirely separate question, nothing related to the one above, and which I should have asked before I installed.... any advice on the version of Media center which has the least glitches when run in the version of mint I am using?
Thanks

After adding the repository did you install Media Center? Try this in a Terminal;
--- Code: ---sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install mediacenter21
--- End code ---
Jay Fora:
Hi, yes, I did install Media Center, I saw the packages being downloaded, and installed. If I do it again, will I land up with duplicate packages, or will the system recognise ones that don't need to be added again?
Awesome Donkey:
It'll recognise them being installed and won't re-install them unless you tell it to.
Also look for any errors during the process.

Hi, MC 21 is now installed. Am now having awful problems trying to get the auto import working. I manged to stop it from automatically going to the wrong place, and direct it to the folders to watch, but ino media shows up in that library. Library says it has a few KB of data. I have tried several times (because I always doubt myself first) to set up a new library following the guide on this site. It asks for an empty folder in which to save the library data, which I created, I set up the paths library should be sourced from, it scans, and seems to be adding files. Then it says 0 new files added. There is also nothing to play. What could be the cause of this? Files are on a drive external to the Mint OS. Drive is mounted, and I have no problem reading/writing to it or accessing it with other programs.
I am still wondering which version of MC is currently the least glitchy and the most functional for playback, tagging, copy paste etc.I only use wired connections and don't have a DAC, with Mint cinnamon 17.2.
Thanks
