Perhaps, you have both the Now Playing window and Now Playing node to work with. In MediaMonkey 4 the Now Playing window can be detached. Ah! Thank you. We detach and move the Now Playing window to the 2nd monitor. I didn't realize that clicking on the Now Playing node would bring up the list in th...

Is it possible to have 2 "Now Playing" lists displayed? I would like one for a large 2nd monitor and one on the regular MM screen for a "DJ" to use. The one on the external monitor could be display-only; it wouldn't be used to control the list. I assume there is no way to have th...

Since there have been no responses, let me try again with maybe a more specific question. I would like to be able to invoke UpdateLocationOfFiles.vbs from somewhere other than Tools/Scripts. Having it be an entry under File would be ideal. I suspect there are scripts (run from Auto) that add functio...

Thank you. I had not looked in Classification. I was just able to fix about 50 tracks that all needed the same information in the custom field. I haven't yet looked into AutoPlayLists (because it didn't sound like something I needed ... just like Classification. I'm slowly learning.) I've also notic...

I want to know the "formal" way of getting data into these fields. From where? Copying the field from a track that that already has the data, probably. These custom fields contain country of origin and teacher. I can certainly find that data as plain text somewhere even if there are no tr...

I think I didn't explain very well. The fields are standard MediaMonkey custom fields: [CustomFields] Fld1Name=Country Fld2Name=Teacher Fld3Name=Comments I believe they may have been populated outside of MediaMonklkey but MediaMonkey knows about them and displays them in track data. I want to know t...

I'm in the process of building a new MM 4.1 system based on on an old MM 2.5 system. In the old system there were some custom fields in the database records that, I think, had been set using a homegrown Access utility. The fields copied over during the 2 database upgrades, but we don't have a way of...

Whoa, MediaMonkey 2.5, that's really old! I'm impressed that you hadn't felt the need to update until now. 🙂 MediaMonkey 5 is a huge upgrade even from 4.1, I'd recommend switching. The person maintaining our multiple cloned systems had a bunch of utilities (outside of MM) that did stuff with the ol...

Thanks. I've now changed to WAVE OUT and found the buffer specification. I'll see how it works.

Regarding collecting diagnostic data, I have no idea how to create the debug log, but I assume it's documented somewhere. I'll look into it soon.

We use PaceMaker to slow music down when learning dances. PaceMaker 1.2 works fine with a very old MM 2.5.5 but PaceMaker 2.7.3 has problems with MM 4.1.29. I can't actually prove the problem has anything to do with PaceMaker, but when Pacemaker is active MM occasionally just quits. No controlled sh...

MediaMonkey 4 already saves the Now Playing as mediamonkey.m3u8 on shutdown (in MediaMonkey 5 it's updated as changes are made). You can find it where the ini is saved: https://www.mediamonkey.com/support/knowledge-base/mediamonkey-install-config/modifying-the-mediamonkey-db-and-ini-files/ Ah. I wo...

Hi, Maybe I am not regular user, but I do not see the point to save new playlist on each playlist change. ... Sure, script can be made, but as MM5 is out I really doubt that someone will make script for MM4 as in MM5 things are even easier because we use more common Java Script. ... I don't want a ...

Hi, No need for addon. Select all track in Now playing -> Right click on one -> Send to -> Playlist -> Create New Playlist. I know it can be done manually. I want a way that can be automated - hence, a script. BTW, somehow this thread landed in the MMW5 forum, but I'm using MMW4.

In a portable MM 4.1 installation I want/need the script UpdateLocationOfFiles.vbs to be available to anybody syncing / cloning multiple copies of the portable media but I don't want it visible to the typical user. Is there some way to execute the script if it isn't in the scripts menu?

Is there an existing script, or a set of scripts that can be cannibalized, that will save the Now Playing list to a new playlist? I know it can be done manually, and it usually is done in our setting, but we need a more foolproof method. The best solution would be something automatically invoked at ...
