Thanks. And not surprising.

Backward compatibility is a concept that Alphabet/Google has never quite grasped.

Yes, Google changed some things, which broke the lookup.

Just curious: what was the break that was fixed? A change in the Google API? Something else?

sidenote: the "check for update" feature in my 5.0.4 version -up to today !- replied that "MM 5.0.4 is the latest version"... :lol: :D

Trying out 3018 and so far no issues and image search is back to normal - Thank you! :D

Everything is working much better now in MMW2024 3018 build and there seems to be some small enhancements to the look up (larger window). I think the new version of Chromium in the build will help with the lookup not failing in the future. Thanks for working on it.

You need to wait for the next 2024 beta build for a fix.

Wait, so there's an update for 5.0 to address this, but not yet for 2024, that much makes sense.... but are you saying that bug is never going to get fixed for version 2024? (5.1)? Or does that mean there will be a patch for it but not until 2024 is out of beta and becomes a "stable" version?

Just trying to understand, because if that function is not going to work in 2024 for a while I need to downgrade back to 5.0x.

I'm running 5.1.0.2830 and seeing the Lookup Image perpetual hang issue too. 5.0.5 seems like it's a downgrade from 5.1.0... ?

Re: recent issues with the "Artwork:lookup" function/link in MM5 ? [#20666]

That should work. Note that another update is planned regarding Artwork due to a memory leak. Restart MediaMonkey if you encounter this.

I'm currently on 5.0.4.2690, so going to 5.0.5.2695 should fix the Artwork issue and not cause other issues?

5.0.5 contains a fix for Artwork lookup, however it's not recommended to downgrade from 5.1/2024 to 5.0.5. A new 2024 release is in the works.
