One license is enough.

Old Versions on the wiki.

What to do with coverart?
I have coverart from 2018 why do they not clear on cleanup coverart  TIA

I'm not sure what you're asking.  Restoring a License on the wiki explains how to find an old version and how to use an old license with it.  But those old versions may not work at all on a Mac.

If you want to switch to Windows, you must buy the MC32 Windows upgrade or a Master License upgrade.  MC32 is the only license available.

Hi Jim, thank you for the response, please allow me to try to explain again.

I have a licence for MC 20,21 and 22. I currently use all 3 on one PC (Windows). I want to setup a second PC (Windows) where I wish to use MC 20,21 and 22, at the same time I want to continue to use MC 20,21 and 22 on the PC where I currently have it installed. I am familiar with the restore and installation procedures but thank you for pointing it out. If I need help regarding those I will read your link or ask for help again but I am not asking for help regarding that right now.

Here is my question -

Do I need to purchase a new license for MC 20,21 and 22 to use them on 2 PCs simultaneously. I currently use them on one PC.

If I do not need a new license then great, please look at the next question. If I do need a license, how can I purchase one?

I am looking for certain versions of older MC that are not available on the forum, the pages exist with a link but the link does not work. Can you send me these versions? I do not ask to host the links/versions for a long time, only long enough for me to download the installer.

Thank you. I hope I will be able to use the older MC on 2 PCs.

Hi Jim, sorry I could not find the answer to my question in the link. It is about upgrading/restoring?

Can you please let me know if I can use my license for MC 20,21,22 on 2 PCs simultaneously, also if a license purchase is required to do so, is that possible? How do I do it? Finally please let me know about downloading older versions of MC, not available on the forum.

I'd like to note I am not interested in MC32 currently.

Hi all... I am totally lost. Help.

'subj' -- I was sure of it -- worked for me just fine in the past... but now I am not even sure.

so, today we sat down to listen to a truly gapless piece (Mahler's in FLAC 96KHz/24bit -- and I could not for the life of me figure out how to make the renderer play without gaps. Digging the interwebs reliably pulls out "DLNA doesn't support gapless" (yes it does, see below); and "Sony HTR-DN1080 doesn't support gapless over DLNA" (well... WhiteBear's tool says "gapless supported").

setup: JRiver MC is on a virtual Linux box; media library is on the host; controlling either via RemoteViewer to the virtual machine, or via a JRiverMC client on a separate PC. no funky settings in the DLNA server, everything plays just fine -- JUST NOT GAPLESS!

decided to test if it was the server's fault and sent the playback to the TEAC505 -- plays gapless no problem.

I thought my Sony played gapless over DLNA in the past, but for the life of me can't remember what exactly I was listening to then...

Any suggestions re: direction of digging is greatly appreciated.

cheers

... then I vote for leaving the current action alone since it does make logical sense to quickly open Spotlight from the PlayerBar (once you realize what is going on).  It's more useful to me as is than assigning additional area for simply dragging a window.

Good idea.

I am not staff.
You do need to restore your license to install it on other PCs. The link I gave you is a post from the CEO pointing to all the information you need, including the licensing policy ("please read this"). The other links are the official download links for the versions you asked.

You can also find their email address if you go to their homepage and read.

Well, if you search JimH's posts (he's JRiver's CEO) he's posted multiple times that a license can be used on multiple machines, within reason. I assume like 3 or 4 machines are more than fine. I'm sure when it becomes 10, 15, 20, etc. then it can be an issue. Since you mentioned two, it should be fine.

One of the many posts Jim has responded to similar questions: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,129370.msg929303.html#msg929303 in fact the whole topic is a good one: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,129370.0.html

The catch is the license has to match the type of license you have. For example if you have a Windows license, then it'll work on Windows machines. If you have a master license then you can install and use it on Windows, Mac and Linux machines.

Hi, I don't need to restore a licence, I need to buy a new license for old software if needed. Also I did see the versions offered here but was looking for some other versions.

However, this isn't possible. They don't sell old licenses for old versions, only the current version (which is Media Center 32) is available for sale (and current licenses won't work for old versions). This question has come up a few times over the years and I'm sure if you search more of Jim's posts you can see him shooting down inquiries on selling old licenses.
