Title: media server won't start
Post by: mowensmd on September 08, 2005, 10:57:28 pm
MC 11.  I had Media server running, using netremote and other PC's to access library.   Now, for some off reason, no remote access works. I've changed NOTHING.  I go to tools>advanced tools>media server and no window opens.  I uninstalled MC11, reinstalled and same thing. Wierdly, then I went to MC11 on one of my other computers, and tools>advanced tools>media server and AGAIN nothing happened.  No window or pop-up or whatever appears. 

Multizone isn't easy, my Sonic T-amp only works for 3 days and then the R outputs go out,  networking the 4 computers in my house is fraught with recurrent login errors.

When you start Media Server it minimizes itself in the lower right corner of your desktop.

MC11 uses Library Server inside MC to share music on your network.  Open the plug-ins portion of the tree to see it and configure it.

Maybe a firewall got turned on?  XP has one.
