where is located on the disk the library? Pathname?
« on: August 27, 2020, 04:07:55 pm »

In which directory / folder is JRiver's library located under Ubuntu 20 LTS? In the wiki it is specified for Windows and MacOsx but not for Linux

By default the working library is in
Code: [Select]
~/.jriver/Media Center 26/Library
Library backups are saved to whereever you've configured under options, though.

Also when you select the Library name (the default being "Main") under Playing Now, the full path to the Library folder should be shown near the top of the screen.

I reinstalled UBUNTU 19.10
I restored my library but I don't have all the covers (I have 99% of them), only the default image, a blue note.
I don't know why, before I had all the covers.
I am doing an import and it seems to work fine while under UBUNTU 20.04 LTS it crashes every 2 minutes. I think that for the moment there is an incompatibility with this new version of UBUNTU. Maybe the new version of JRiver (27) will solve the problem?

If you're experiencing crashes, it sounds like you might have bad files. All you have to do is enable logging and reproduce the crash. Then look at the log and see what the last file(s) MC was trying to import was and move those files out.

UBUNTU 20.04 LTS work with JRiver 26 without problem? or we must be wait JRiver 27?

Works fine here. But like I said if MC is crashing while importing, you probably have bad files.

A clarification, if I may:

Works fine here. But like I said if MC is crashing while importing, you probably have bad media files.

Awesome Donkey isn't talking about files in the MC installation or Linux, but the media files themselves, which can cause crashes sometimes if they are corrupted or have other issues.

I have two bootable drives. One with UBUNTU 19.10 and MC26 there is no problem importing audio files and one with UBUNTU 20.04 and MC26 which crashes when importing files. I don't think my audio files are corrupted. I imported my library from Ubuntu 19.10 / MC26 to Ubuntu 20.04 / MC26, no problem listening to audio files but I still can't import without MC26 crash. They are the same audio files in both cases with the same path to access them.
