Just not sure what to do next as I am left with a screen asking: How do you want to open this file? Keep using this app - JavaPlatform SE binary other options: look for an app in the store I can select always use this app to open jar. Thanks again for taking the time I will be very happy if I get this running. One thing I want to mention is I see an icon on the bottom right of screen where time and date is. When I go over it I get a msg "MinimServer (Laptop-J924TL4)is running I can look for app in store or check "allways use this app to open .jar files |

You have confirmed that the MinimServer program is correctly associated with Java.

Unlike many programs on startup, MinimServer does not display a Windows Gui. Instead, it appears as a minim icon as you have described. To open up a Windows Gui you must right click the minim icon and select the Properties option. From here check that the ‘contentDir’ option contains the path to your Music directory, e.g. C:\Users\admin\Music For your Music directory to be scanned you may need to right click the minim icon again and select the Rescan option. |

I then see a window: Jarfix v3.0.0 has been registered and java can be run with a doubleclick? It has been run as an administrator account? ?what do I doubleclick java or jarfix. It tells me it has been run under and administrator account if problem persists run under the user account. |

Following the investigation you performed earlier, there is no need to run jarfix. Although it will do no harm if you do. MinimServer is correctly associated with Java and, more importantly, you have indicated that MinimServer is running. Your control app, presumably Streammagic, will discover MinimServer as a UPNP server. You will need to navigate to the Media/UPNP servers menu and select MinimServer. From then on, you use the Streammagic app as before but MinimServer will be providing the music data. |

RE: Initial setup
Many thx, I apologize for the confusion. Cambridge Audio stopped Streammagic b4 I purchased my player. I have downloaded the "Cambridge Connect App" but only on Tablet and ipod touch. Using this App I have only been able to use the radio presets. I know see Minimserver on Cambridge Connect. I have to figure out how to get my music there as there seems to be no content avail to play. Getting closer.

RE: Initial setup
All is working great other than not being able to view any album artwork. I am using the "Cambridge Connect" App. If it means anything I see MP3 or M4A displayed, Any suggestions would be appreciated, Thanks in advance.

I am shure the connect app can display artwork in a proper way, I still use this app. |

I am assuming that the content of the following link is still valid. Why-can-t-I-see-album-artwork-on-my-CXN-and-Connect-app. To embed the cover art, you will need a Tag editor, e.g. mp3tag, which despite the name will also tag other file formats such as FLAC and WAV. It also supports updating a library of audio files in a single step known as batch processing which is something you may need. |
