INTERACT FORUM

I had been using an Oppo Sonica as the music source for my 2 channel system but due to lack of support and its age I upgraded to the Cambridge Audio MXN10 DAC/Streamer so I could have access to Tidal and other music apps. My JRiver server shows up on the Cambridge Stream Magic app, just like on the Sonica app but when I choose a file there is no music. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Keep in mind I’m only reasonably fluent in JRiver terminology.

The last two items are automatically included in the media files sync if the cover art is stored in the music file tags, or located in the same media file directory as the audio files (organized in per-album directories and then folder sync).

True for album art and video art. Not true for artists art.

The update/install worked flawlessly.

Thank-you.


fwiw, I am considering replacing the Windows PC running MC in my entertainment center with the Linux flavor of MC.  Mainly because I do not want to deal with the Windows 11 hardware demands.

Smooth updates, such as this one, are making my decision easier.

Thank-you again.

You lose any ability to use JRiver's DSP.

Depending on what hardware processor you have on the other end, that could be considered a plus or a minus.

The new "Active" templates are much more fancy with icons etc.  ...

Yes, they are more fancy.

But when I sit down to watch a few episodes of a TV show I have in MC, I am presented with the same pictures of the actors over and over again, with each episode I view.

And those pictures take up a lot of space, pushing the information about each episode that I am interested in off the screen.  Also, the actors' photos are current ones, not anything like the actors as they may appear on older shows.

Then there's that huge bold font for the episode title.

What I'd like to see:

The option to show, e.g., Actors' names  or Actors' names and photos when I configure what i want to see.

... and tone down that episode title.  It does not need to take up that much screen space.

 


 

We added a re-rip tool a couple of years ago.

Where is this feature? I'll gladly use what's there. So many features I miss some of them.  D'oh!

Thanks, Jim!

Sorry about the delay.
Found the WD TV Live and after a lot more looking found the remote!

It is not the HD version.  It identifies as WD TV Live Streaming Media Player
Firmware version 2.02.32

Will test with AC3  / Dolby Digital and report back, but do not think my findings will mean much

You will need to synchronize:
- media files
- library files
- thumbnail files
- cover art files

The last two items are automatically included in the media files sync if the cover art is stored in the music file tags, or located in the same media file directory as the audio files (organized in per-album directories and then folder sync).

I looked at the source code of this e-mail and found nothing suspicious. ...

Ditto.
