I actually prefer the MusicBee UI to the JRiver UI. Hopefully once you restore the settings the conversion settings on the new computer will behave the way they were behaving on the old computer. You may also want to restore the library if you like the way the old computer was set up for playlists and where the music files are. In the restore library dialog you'll have options to restore the library and to restore the settings On the new computer go to File > Library > Restore Library. Then copy the most recent library backup file from the old computer to the new computer menuĭo a backup and you'll be able to see what folder it is saving the backups to. You can force it to create a backup by going to the File > Library > Back Up Library. The default location for the library backup files is in "Documents\JRiver\Media Center 22\Library Backups"Īlthough it is possible to change that location in the settings so the Library Backup files could be somewhere else on the drive. Then use that old backup to restore the settings on the new computer. You can transfer the JRiver settings from the old computer to the new computer by copying one of the old library backup files from the old computer to the new computer. JRiver saves its settings in the library backup file. My Dragonfly doesn't even go that high.Īs an aside, I convert 2.0 SACD isos to so I can cherry-pick and put on my HD Portable Player, but I KEEP isos that had a surround sound layer as a backup for playing multichannel at home. Range and hence files size - way out of control. NONE of the options in all the usual places show me a limit on WHAT isos convert to en total. I can't sign up for another board - another place where I ask a question and can't even remember what forum I had to sign up for.Īny help would be appreciated. So sometimes I down convert, let's say a vinyl rip that's at 192khz down to 96. 96, for me is way high enough to have plenty of top end, and "air" beyond what I can't hear. The files I just converted are now MASSIVE, because I can't get the 96khz going. Where's the setting to up-convert from a 24-88 to 24-96, or simply to have it DOWN converted from say a 24-192 file to 24-96. Yes, their Wiki is awful - there's absolutely no explanation of how to re-do my settings. I take my ISO files that I have ripped from my SACD collection, and if in stereo, I convert to 24-96 FLAC. They convert audio - really great feature. Speaking of conversion, I use Jriver, but just had to have it reinstalled in new computer. no substitute for trying before buying, IMO. In summary, it's a versatile and mostly high-quality program, with some dark corners and poorly documented features. It had a tendency to duplicate and triplicate podcasts, and I was never able to fix that. The sync was more complex to set up than in iTunes, and was done fairly well, but it was somewhat flaky, and it did not synchronize the little bullets that indicate whether a selection has been played already - useful especially with podcasts. More directly to the point, I used JRMC to sync an iPod for year, because I use JRMC for everything else and wanted to banish iTunes from my computer. The documentation of less central features is just too opaque, incomplete, out-of-date, jargon-ridden, and hard to locate. As an example, I tried to figure out what "Library Sync" actually does and never succeeded, and I've been working with computers since 1966, have a PhD, and can program in several languages. Essentially, the only documentation is an often out-of-date Wiki and a Forum and some Web pages. Some less-used features of JRMC can be difficult to figure out, tricky to configure right, and poorly documented. I agree the OP should use the trial version to see if it meets his needs. I use JRMC, I wouldn't be without it, I pay the money each year to upgrade to the latest version, I think it's a high-quality program and invaluable for library management and USB playback.
