Title: can't find media server
Post by: scottlindner on January 20, 2008, 12:39:58 pm

I have the media server running on another machine on the LAN but another instance of MC12 cannot find it.  What are the steps for debugging this?  Is there a way to tell MC12 the IP instead of it blindly searching and telling me nothing useful about why it can't find it or what it tried to find?  Are there logs to check so I can see what it tried to do?

Use Library Manager, there is an example of how to enter the IP address.

The auto-find of the server is done via UDP broadcast, and will not hop routers.
