This self-contained program will install JRiver Media Center and associated services on most major Linux distros.
You can always find the latest version of installJRMC, changelog, and documentation in my repository.
installJRMC [--option [ARGUMENT]]
Running installJRMC
without any options will install the latest version of JRiver Media Center (MC) from the official JRiver repository (Ubuntu/Debian) or my unofficial repository (Fedora/CentOS) using the system package manager (--install repo
). If any other option is passed, then the default install method (i.e. --install repo
or --install local
) must be specified. This makes it possible to install services and containers independent of MC.>
curl https://git.bryanroessler.com/bryan/installJRMC/raw/master/installJRMC|bash
$ installJRMC --help
--install, -i repo|local
repo: Install MC from repository, future updates will be handled by the system package manager
local: Build and install MC package locally from official source package
--build[=suse|fedora|centos]
Build RPM from source DEB but do not install
Optionally, specify a target distro for cross-building (ex. --build=suse, note the '=')
--compat
Build/install MC without minimum dependency version requirements
--mcversion VERSION
Build or install a specific MC version, ex. "33.0.15" (default: latest version)
--mcrepo REPO
Specify the MC repository, ex. "bullseye", "bookworm", "noble", etc (default: latest official)
--arch ARCH
Specify the MC architecture, ex. "amd64", "arm64", etc (default: host architecture)
--outputdir PATH
Generate rpmbuild output in this PATH (default: ./output)
--restorefile RESTOREFILE
Restore file location for automatic license registration
--betapass PASSWORD
Enter beta team password for access to beta builds
--service, -s SERVICE
See SERVICES section below for the list of services to deploy
--service-type user|system
Starts services at boot (system) or user login (user) (default: per-service, see SERVICES)
--container, -c CONTAINER (TODO: Under construction)
See CONTAINERS section below for a list of containers to deploy
--createrepo[=suse|fedora|centos]
Build rpm, copy to webroot, and run createrepo.
Optionally, specify a target distro for non-native repo (ex. --createrepo=fedora, note the '=')
--createrepo-webroot PATH
The webroot directory to install the repo (default: /var/www/jriver/)
--createrepo-user USER
The web server user if different from the current user
--yes, -y, --auto
Always assume yes for questions
--version, -v
Print this script version and exit
--debug, -d
Print debug output
--help, -h
Print help dialog and exit
--uninstall, -u
Uninstall JRiver MC, service files, and firewall rules (does not remove library or media files)
--service=
jriver-mediaserver [--service-type=user]
Enable and start a mediaserver systemd service (requires an existing X server)
jriver-mediacenter [--service-type=user]
Enable and start a mediacenter systemd service (requires an existing X server)
jriver-x11vnc [--service-type=user]
Enable and start x11vnc for the local desktop (requires an existing X server, does NOT support Wayland)
--vncpass and --display are also valid options (see below)
jriver-xvnc [--service-type=system]
Enable and start a new Xvnc session running JRiver Media Center
--vncpass PASSWORD
Set vnc password for x11vnc/Xvnc access. If no password is set, the script will either use existing password stored in ~/.vnc/jrmc_passwd or use no password
--display DISPLAY
Manually specify display to use for x11vnc/Xvnc (ex. ':1')
jriver-createrepo [--service-type=system]
Install hourly service to build latest MC RPM and run createrepo
By default installs as root service to handle www permissions more gracefully
--service-type=
By default, MC services use a sane --service-type
listed next to the service name in the --service=
section. User services begin at user login and are managed by the unprivileged user, for example: systemctl --user stop jriver-mediacenter
. System services begin at boot and are managed by root, for example: sudo systemctl stop jriver-servicename@username.service
. It is possible to run all services of a particular user at boot using sudo loginctl enable-linger username
.
Multiple services (but not --service-types
) can be installed at one time using multiple --service
blocks: installJRMC --install repo --service jriver-x11vnc --service jriver-mediacenter
jriver-x11vnc
versus jriver-xvnc
jriver-x11vnc shares the existing X display via VNC and can be combined with additional services to start Media Center or Media Server. Conversely, jriver-xvnc creates a new Xvnc display and starts a JRiver Media Center service in the foreground of the new VNC display.
Coming soon!
installJRMC
automatically creates port forwarding firewall rules for remote access to Media Network (52100-52200/tcp, 1900/udp DLNA) and Xvnc/x11vnc (if selected), using firewall-cmd
or ufw
.
Note: ufw
is not installed by default on Debian but will be installed by installJRMC
. To prevent SSH lock-out, Debian users that have not already enabled ufw
will need to sudo ufw enable
after running installJRMC
and inspecting their configuration.
