now that its stable i can start working on the server rather than my friends weekend group server. (which is kind of cheating being that no one else will be playing on it till next weekend and i already have 17 diamonds lol.

It's stable apart from the usual share of glitches Minecraft comes with, there's no Bukkit yet - but it works, and works well now. And it's configured the way the community wanted it to.

The server does run on Windows Server 2012...

It does? That's surprising. I realize that this is Neowin, but Minecraft Server Manager - which is clearly the only sane way to run a Minecraft server - is not supported on Windows!

 

Also, could I please be whitelisted again? My Minecraft username is the same as my Neowin one.

Not sure if my request to get whitelisted was missed a couple of pages back, but could you please whitelist me. my username is Tolinbras

Whitelisted both of you.

hmm, trying to connect to the server and it says I am not whiltelisted. The server name/ip is still the same as in the first post of the thread correct: mc.neowin.net/207.36.27.103?

Yes. It's possible I mistyped your MC login while whitelisting you - however I can't check as I am at work now. Sorry.

 

You'll have to ask either Louisifer or Chasethebase to check.

thats ok no rush, I'd just home from work and thought i would jump on and get started but it won't let me.

might be a good thing I can't get on atm as I am cooking dinner and probably shouldn't get too distracted from that

To be completely honest, I had not heard of that one before. The list of features looks impressive - and I can certainly understand why some Minecraft server admins would find it attractive - but based on a cursory overview of its advertised features it appears to have several disadvantages compared to Minecraft Server Manager. From a usability perspective, McMyAdmin appears to only allow administration via a GUI. While graphical interfaces (whether that be a web GUI or native GUI) are attractive in some cases, I consider them something to be avoided in server administration. Furthermore McMyAdmin imposes some ridiculous limitations on free users. For example, I see no reason why the server should be limited to 10 users in-game for the free personal version. The official Minecraft server binary is available for free and imposes no such restriction, so McMyAdmin is apparently doing extra work to impose an artificial restriction in that regard! There are also several features which Minecraft Server Manager prominently advertises - such as integrated backups, automatic server updates, convenient log access, and support for running multiple Minecraft servers simultaneously on the same host - which the McMyAdmin documentation makes no mention of. Finally, McMyAdmin seems to be fairly light on official documentation and is not open-source. I think I'll pass.

    • Media Player Classic - Home Cinema 2.7.2 by Razvan Serea Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (MPC-HC) is a free and open-source video and audio player for Windows. MPC-HC is based on the original Guliverkli project (which is no longer maintained) and contains many additional features and bug fixes. As the continuation of the original Media Player Classic, MPC-HC isn’t flashy but it works with nearly any media format. MPC-HC uses DXVA technology to pass decoding operations to your modern video card, enhancing your viewing experience. And MPC-HC supports both physical and software DVDs with menus, chapter navigation, and subtitles. Overview of features A lot of people seem to be unaware of some of the awesome features that have been added to MPC-HC in the past years. Here is a list of useful options and features that everyone should know about: Dark interface Menu > View > Dark Theme When using dark theme it is also possible to change the height of the seekbar and size of the toolbar buttons. Options > Advanced Video preview on the seekbar Options > Tweaks > Show preview on seek bar Adjust playback speed Menu > Play > Playback rate The buttons in the player that control playback rate take a 2x step by default. This can be customized to smaller values (like 10%): Options > Playback > Speed step Adjusting playback speed works best with the internal audio renderer. This also has automatic pitch correction. Options > Playback > Output > Audio Renderer MPC-HC can remember playback position, so you can resume from that point later Options > Player > History You can quickly seek through a video with Ctrl + Mouse Scrollwheel. You can jump to next/previous file in a folder by pressing PageUp/PageDown. You can perform automatic actions at end of file. For example to go to next file or close player. Options > Playback > After Playback (permanent setting) Menu > Play > After Playback (for current file only) A-B repeat - You can loop a segment of a video. Press [ and ] to set start and stop markers. You can rotate/flip/mirror/stretch/zoom the video Menu > View > Pan&Scan This is also easily done with hotkeys (see below). There are lots of keyboard hotkeys and mouse actions to control the player. They can be customized as well. Options > Player > Keys Tip: there is a search box above the table. You can stream videos directly from Youtube and many other video websites You can stream videos directly from Youtube and many other video websites Put yt-dlp.exe or youtube-dl.exe in the MPC-HC installation folder. Then you can open website URLs in the player: Menu > File > Open File/URL You can even download those videos: Menu > File > Save a copy Tip: to be able to download in best quality with yt-dlp/youtube-dl, it is recommended to also put ffmpeg.exe in the MPC-HC folder. Several YDL configuration options are found here: Options > Advanced This includes an option to specify the location of the .exe in case you don't want to put it in MPC-HC folder. Play HDR video This requires using madVR or MPC Video Renderer. After installation these renderers can be selected here: Options > Playback > Output Ability to search for and download subtitles, either automatically or manually (press D): Options > Subtitles > Misc Besides all these (new) features, there have also been many bugfixes and internal improvements in the player in the past years that give better performance and stability. It also has updated internal codecs. Support was added for CUE sheets, WebVTT subtitles, etc. Media Player Classic - Home Cinema 2.7.2 changelog: Updated LAV Filters to version 0.81-23-g6fadb Updated MPC Video Renderer to version 0.10.2.2540 Updated MediaInfo DLL to version 26.05 Updated MPC Audio Renderer Several crash fixes, bug fixes and small improvements.

    • No problems here using the new Outlook. In our company we started to default installing to users on new computers or when we're reimaging. But, if the user needs/ask for the classic one, we install it. Low reject rate at this point.
    • Yeah it's my only home/business computer. The Surface Pen magnetic Storage is on the left side, but it doesn't charge the Pen. I do the charging once every 6+ months by interchanging between 2 rechargeable AAAA batteries and charging the other via a USB A battery charger.
    • I have NO problem restricting minors having access to apps. Personally, I'd like to see the restriction extend to smartphones too, but that should be the parents anyway. But on the restrictions ? GOOD LUCK enforcing that. Between VPN's, side loading and what not, I'm sure kids will find a way around it.
