Title: Both Media Center and Media JukeBox?
Post by: matshif on March 27, 2003, 10:04:32 am

Hi

I read the discussion in topic "MC 9.134 Slow loading program" where JimH asking how big the database and .jmd files was at DocLotus.

I took a look in my on and found something that I hope someone can give an answer to.

I have under C:\Program\J River both Media Center and Media Jukebox and the file Data in both. The only diff, as I can see, is that Media Center Data also have Backups.

When I click on Data and compare I see five files with .jmd extension in both MC Data and MJ Data and the biggest is the mediafiles.jmd.
Is this correct, I mean should I have both MC and MJ?

I started some months ago with MJ and the went to MC.

I have .134

Regards Mats

The MJ directory is probably old.  Try re-naming it and see if MC runs.

Re-naming to .old or?

One more thing. The Cover Art file is in Media JukeBox :-/

Had this problem. The solution for me was to change the existing "track image location", which still pointed to the old MJ-folder.

Go to "options" - "file naming & locations" and change the "track image location" to the MC-folder (for ex. "C:\Programme\Media Center\Data\Thumbnails"). Then copy all existing cover art files from the MJ-directory to this directory. Rename the old MJ-folder and test. If all works, you can delete the old MJ-folder. Maybe you have to retag the new path to cover art in your tracks ...

Hi fex
I have done everything but I didn't understand the last part of your advice: "Maybe you have to retag the new path to cover art in your tracks ... ".

Could you please explain it little more in details, thank you.
