Hello. I need help installing my Master license for Media Center 21. I looked through my saved emails and found the email that includes the .mjr attachment for Media Center 20, but can't find the one for Media Center 21. Looks like I accidentally deleted that email. No luck using the license restore page.

Thanks.

.mjr files are only good for a limited time (14 days IIRC).
I assume you have a registration code or the email address you used when purchasing MC21. The restore page handles both of those situations.

What issue are you having with the restore page?

When I try to use the restore page, I get an error message. "We could not find that license." I've had no problem registering on the windows computer.

Thank you.

Make sure you don't have any leading or trailing spaces when you put in the registration code.
If it still doesn't work, PM me the code.

Your code worked fine for me on the restore page.
It generated a .mjr file and emailed it to your registered email address.
You can't use the registration code on the command line but you can use the .mjr file just created if you copy it over to your linux machine.

I assume the reason you can't get the code to work in the program is that you are using a unsupported version (non-debian) of linux and the system ssl certificate store is different.

See this post for command line installation via the .mjr file:
http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=102427.0

See this post for certificate issues on non-supported versions of linux:

After copying the .mjr file to the linux machine and clicking on the file, the license installed.

For whatever reason, the code didn't work on the restore page on the linux machine. Instead of trying to restore the license on the windows machine, I requested the codes by email. Likely why a .mjr file wasn't generated?

Thanks.

The mimetype for the browser you used on the linux machine for the .mjr might not be correct.
You can always save the .mjr in that situation however and do it from the command line.

That's what I thought. However, I didn't have the .mjr file, so couldn't try the command line option outlined on the set up page.

When you restore a license, the browser *should* automatically download the .mjr file - it sounds to me for some reason this was failing. Which browser(s) are you using? Which Linux distro are you using?

When you restore the license, it will also E-mail the .mjr file, so you should have one sitting in your inbox.

Bob helped me resolve this issue earlier. The problem was that it couldn't be done from the linux machine. "The license couldn't be found." After copying the .mjr file from the windows machine to the linux machine, the license was successfully installed.

Thanks.

Same problem!
I've uninstalled mediacenter21; then i removed all packages (remove -> purge -> clean), then installed again (all process of the p. 1).
However, it still does not boot...  :(

The issue doesn't occur on Ubuntu 15.10 (maybe 15.04 too, can't check). Seems Ubuntu 14.04.x LTS and Linux Mint 17.x (which is based off Ubuntu 14.04.x - same applies to any other distros based off 14.04.x) are affected by this due to using older GCC libs.

Until Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Linux Mint 18, this will likely be a required workaround. I'll be adding this to the Ubuntu/Linux Mint tutorial today along with the skins tutorial.

EDIT: Done. The skins tutorial is pretty quick and not too descriptive, which I'll greatly improve when I have more time.

hello, I have proceeded to my weekly update as recommended above and MC21 doesn't start anymore !  when I try to start from a terminal, it says:

mediacenter21: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20' not found (required by /usr/lib/jriver/Media Center 21/libboost_regex.so.1.59.0)

Is it something understandable for  you ?! if yes your help will be well appreciated... thanks in advance.

Folks, am having a bit of a weird problem. Had a working install of MC21 on "Rosa" that I had left unupdated for maybe 6 weeks. Just came back and ran all the system and package updates, and MC no longer loads at all - I get the "hour glass" and then nothing happens, no error messages or anything else. Reboot does not fix it. I managed to remove the package and re-install, also with no errors, but with the same result.  I am just cutting my teeth on Linux so would appreciate any help!

EDIT: Fixed by Audiotone's instructions above. Many thanks. Explanations for us Linux newbies?

Explanations for us Linux newbies?

Media Center requires libs of at least the same version found in Debian 8.0 Jessie. Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (and Linux Mint 17.2 which is based off 14.04) use older libs than the ones needed by Media Center. The fix uses a PPA which upgrades some of the libs, thus allowing Media Center to work again.

This isn't an issue with Ubuntu 15.10, nor will it be an issue with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

I have a problem with MC 21. He left unexpectedly  ::) for the transmission of files to my network drive. Yet there is no further action, any application launched from the moment it starts to send the signal and when it stops. The network is not concerned because everything works perfectly in Windows-Foobar-BubbleUPnP combination.
I use Xubuntu 14.04 LTS; distribution is updated. Version of Media Center: 21.0.39.

Will this install a build higher than 21.0.39? Because that is what got installed when I followed the instructions in this tutorial. Though previously when I have followed this tutorial the latest build got installed. Am I correct in guessing that there is now a "Stable" repository channel for linux. If that is so I would need to add the "Latest" repository channel in order for build 21.0.48-3 to install. I just need to know the proper terminal command to do this. Any help would be appreciated.

No, because the newer builds haven't been pushed to the repository yet as they're in need of testing first. You can see this by reading the latest comments by Bob in the release topics.

To install the newer builds you'll need to download them manually and install them via the Terminal.

I managed to follow the guide and installed MediaCenter 21 to intel NUC 3815 computer. Thank you. :)

If I want to use the music server as headless DLNA server, how do I auto start MediaCenter once turning on Linux and so that I could control it with JRemote Samsung Android tablet?

In addition, is it required to install vnc program X11Vnc to gain control of the desktop for samba file copy and management and how to do it?

Re: Setup JRiver Media Center 21 In Ubuntu/Linux Mint
« Reply #83 on: April 25, 2016, 03:11:58 pm »

This tutorial aims to aid users into setting up JRiver Media Center 21 onto computers running the following Linux operating systems;

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Xenial Xerus
Ubuntu 15.10 Wily Werewolf
Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS Trusty Tahr
Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa

NOTE: This tutorial does borrow ideas and parts done by InflatableMouse and his excellent Debian Wheezy tutorial found here, so please thank him.

Before we continue, please note the following;

- Media Center 21 for Linux is developed on Debian Wheezy 32-bit and Debian Jessie 64-bit - support for distros other than Wheezy 32-bit and Jessie 64-bit, like Ubuntu and Mint is not officially supported!
- This tutorial will focus on the operating systems above, any others you're on your own with.
- This *should* also apply to Ubuntu/Mint derivatives like Xubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Ubuntu GNOME, Linux Mint (MATE), Linux Mint (Xfce), etc. However, extra steps may be required!
- Before installing, please read the outstanding issues topic! Many of the issues noted for Debian also apply to Ubuntu/Mint!


Step 1 - Add the JRiver APT Repository:

The APT repository is required to install Media Center 21 and keep Media Center 21 updated with every new release.

First, open a Terminal (by either pressing CTRL+ALT+T or by searching for the terminal in your desktop environment) and either type the following command or copy and paste the command in and press Enter (you *may* be prompted for your password);

Code: [Select]
wget -q "http://dist.jriver.com/mediacenter@jriver.com.gpg.key" -O- | sudo apt-key add -
Next, with the Terminal still open, we need to download and add the correct mediacenter.list file to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ depending if you're using 32-bit or 64-bit so either type one the following commands or copy and paste the command in and press Enter;

If you're using 64-bit Ubuntu/Linux Mint:
Code: [Select]
sudo wget http://dist.jriver.com/latest/mediacenter/mediacenter21jessie.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mediacenter21.list
Or...

If you're using 32-bit Ubuntu/Linux Mint:
Code: [Select]
sudo wget http://dist.jriver.com/latest/mediacenter/mediacenter21.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mediacenter21.list
Finally, we need to reload the packages list, so with the Terminal still open either type the following command or copy and paste the command in and press Enter;

Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get update
NOTE: If you're using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Xenial Xerus you may encounter an error about the repository is insufficiently signed, this is currently just a warning that can be ignored.

That's it! Proceed to step 2!


Step 2 - Installing Media Center 21:

It's finally time to install Media Center 21! First, open a Terminal (by either pressing CTRL+ALT+T or by searching for the Terminal in your desktop environment) or re-use the Terminal from the previous step. Next either type the following command or copy and paste the command in and press Enter (you *may* be prompted for your password);

Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install mediacenter21
During this process it should say something along the following;

Code: [Select]
The following extra packages will be installed:
  lame libcue1 libreplaygain1 musepack-tools vorbis-tools
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  lame libcue1 libreplaygain1 mediacenter21 musepack-tools vorbis-tools
0 upgraded, 6 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

However, if you receive an error like;

Code: [Select]
dependency problems prevent configuration of mediacenter21:
 mediacenter21 depends on ....

This means all dependencies have not been met. Don't fret, this can usually be taken care of by using the following command in the Terminal by either typing the following command or copying and pasting the command in and press Enter;

Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install -f
It'll show you the missing dependencies, after looking them over just press enter to install them. Now assuming all dependencies are met, you've been successful at installing Media Center 21 in Ubuntu/Mint! However, I recommend rebooting since this will allow MC to load up fonts correctly - otherwise if you run MC without rebooting first, fonts may look pretty horrendous!

Now, after rebooting you can start Media Center either go into the Unity dash, Mint menu, etc. and search for Media Center 21 or you can run it from the Terminal by either typing the following command or copying and pasting the command in and press Enter;

Code: [Select]
mediacenter21
Now, we're going to cover installing the license for those who have purchased in step 3!

Segfault is a generic message.
What has changed since it last worked? Your OS or build of MC?

upgraded OS ubuntu studio 14.04 to 16.04...
You are probably missing a library.

Do a
ldd -d /usr/lib/jriver/MC21/*.so
and look for missing things.
You can also check
ldd -d /usr/lib/jriver/MC21/Plugins/*.so

try the same on /usr/bin/mediacenter21

If you still find nothing is missing, delete (or move out of place) the settings files. They are in:
~/.jriver/Media\ Center\ 21/Settings/

did not solve the problem...

reinstalled 14.04 on a second HDD: it works!
still not working in 16.04: does not start...no error messages...just does not start.

Am I the only one using jriver in 16.04?

I'm using MC21 in Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit, and it works fine. I'm not using Ubuntu Studio though.

Hi!

Newbie on Ubuntu, proud owner of Mediacenter 21. I can't install it on Ubuntu, after all the steps, when I get to: sudo apt-get install mediacenter21

I get: E: Unable to locate package mediacenter21

what to do?

Thanks,

André

André, regarde la réponse #83 (la tienne a le n° #94). il te faut commencer par ajouter les dépôts - c'est le Step 1 - avant de songer à faire l'installation.
Et la commande à coller dans le Terminal dépend de la version que tu utilises (nom de version + 32 ou 64 bit).
Tu peux copier-coller les lignes de commande, soit par un clic droit, soit en utilisant les raccourcis Ctrl C pour copier, suivi de Ctrl Majuscule V dans le Terminal.

Je voudrais accéder à la médiathèque de JRiver depuis un autre PC (sur le même réseau). Je saisis la clé d'accès (la même que celle que j'utilise pour piloter JRiver depuis mon smartphone), mais une autre fenêtre s'ouvre qui me demande l'identifiant et le mot de passe correspondant à l'adresse IP de l'autre PC (le PC source). Et je ne sais pas ce qu'il faut donner comme information. Les 2 PC sont sous xubuntu 14.04 LTS.

I want to access the media library JRiver from another PC (on the same network). I take the access key (the same one I use to drive JRiver from my smartphone), but another window opens that asks me username and password for the IP address of other PC (PC source). And I do not know what to give as information. 2 PC are running xubuntu 14.04 LTS.

That means you didn't get it into your repository list properly or you didn't so a sudo apt-get update to update the repository lists. Check the top post again carefully.

Since a couple of days, I presume since the latest update, Internet radio (via the file URL) does not play reliable anymore. Sometimes it responds with “Something went wrong with the playback” sometimes it plays for a few minutes and then stops. This is true for both playback via DLNA on a network DAC as well as via the soundcard of the PC itself. The URL itself and the network connection is fine as I can play the stream via my Windows 10 PC via the web browser. Also playing music from the local disk or from the NAS works flawlessly via DLNA as well as via the soundcard of the media center PC.
Sometimes relaunching the URL makes it play again sometimes a reboot is necessary.
I have then reinstalled the PC with Ubuntu 16.04 TLS reinstalled MC 21 version 21.0.85 exactly the same.

My “/etc/apt/sources.list.d/mediacenter21.list” file contains
deb [arch=amd64] http://dist.jriver.com/latest/mediacenter/ jessie main
Where could I start searching for the problem knowing that before the latest update the system worked flawlessly for a long time (MC20 and MC21) I had a MC20 license which I upgraded to a master MC21 license and last week to a MC22 master license.
Any help would be more then appreciated
MC 21 version 21.0.85 Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS x64 as well as Ubuntu 16.04 LTS x64
Internet radio stops playing streams after a couple of minutes

Would you drop back to the previous build and see if the issue is still there?
sudo wget http://files.jriver.com/mediacenter/channels/v21/latest/MediaCenter-21.0.83-amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i MediaCenter-21.0.83-amd64.deb

Thanks.
