Title: How to make Library Server auto-start?
Post by: Markeau on February 12, 2006, 11:56:09 am

Ok I have searched, but have not found an answer. I would like the Library Server to auto-start without the full MC gui starting after boot/login. It seems like this would be an option in Services & Plugins > Library Server > Options, but I don't see it there.

Hi,

Yes, just copy the instance of "Media Server" from the MC folder in the start menu to the startup folder. This will start just the media server component and put a little icon in the systray.

HTH
