Title: JRiver as a Web Browser
Post by: mimeh on August 09, 2019, 11:06:36 am

Is there any way to use JRiver as a web browser and manage links for example concert sites like

It doesn`t work.

There is no file in the Media center. Its only a link to a special content in the web.

The only possibility I found is to "Add Website" under "Streaming". But there is no option to save Composer, Artist etc.

Streaming from a website address plays the stream of music it supplies, it doesn't save a file on disc to be tagged.

After some experiments I found the following solution:

1.  I produced some dummy mediafiles (three black frames in mpg-format).
2.  I imported these dummies into the media center
3.  I constructed a new link in "Manage Links" with name (Link to Web) with "Base Link" = [web media search].
4.  I listed the dummy mediafiles and filled in some tags like Composer, Artist etc., especially the field "Web Media Search" was filled by the URL like

To navigate to the Web Source You have to choose the wanted media in the list and click on (Link to Web).
