## Options
Running `installJRMC` without any options will install the latest version of JRiver Media Center from the official JRiver repository (Ubuntu/Debian) or my [unofficial repository](https://repos.bryanroessler.com/jriver/) (Fedora/CentOS) using the system package manager. If any other option is specified then the default install method will need to be specified using `--install-repo` (or `--install-rpmbuild`). This makes it possible to create services, containers, repos, etc. separate from installing Media Center.

### services
When installing systemd services it is important to execute `installJRMC` as the user you wish to run the services. Typically this is your normal user account but for some server installations it may be necessary to execute the script as root.

##### `jriver-x11vnc-mediaserver` versus `jriver-xvnc-mediacenter`
`x11vnc` shares your existing X display via vnc and starts a minimized JRiver Media Center service. Conversely, `xvnc` creates a new VNC display and starts a JRiver Media Center service in the foreground. The requisite firewall rules will also be added to the system firewall to enable remote access.
It is possible to install multiple services at one time using additional `--service` arguments: `installJRMC --install-repo --service jriver-x11vnc --service jriver-mediacenter`
##### `jriver-x11vnc` versus `jriver-xvnc-mediacenter`
[jriver-x11vnc](http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/) shares your existing X display via VNC and can be combined with additional services to start Media Center or Media Server. Conversely, [xvnc](https://tigervnc.org/doc/Xvnc.html) creates a new Xvnc display and starts a JRiver Media Center service in the foreground of the new VNC display. The requisite firewall rules will also be added to the system firewall to enable remote access.
**Note**: If `jriver-xvnc-mediacenter` finds an existing display it will attempt to increment the display number by 1. This should work fine in 99% of cases, but if you have multiple running X servers on your host machine you should use the `--display` option to specify a free display.
