Ok from the other thread I followed the build the database from the share in mp config. which worked in there.

However when I go into MP I see songs and albums no cover art and cannot play the songs as they are not listed in library mode only in shared mode.

I think I need to understand how this all works.

My music is on a network share and mp database and mp are on my htpc....

how do I get all the cover art (some is there probably.jpg stuff) and correct info into database and use tag that to update my files etc from the htpc with MP on it? and how do we get the songs to show up in libray mode?

I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...

4.5 is really old. I'm not sure 4.5.5 even is a version that actually existed. You should be able to install .NET Framework 4.8.0 on Windows 7 SP1
