Hi, been using MediaMonkey now on and off for a few years but with MMA out there now, I'm thinking of using both Windows and Android platforms fulltime. Before I jump in fully, a few questions that you may be able to assist me with. I've searched and not been able to find anything yet to assist me with my issues.
I've been using MMW now for a month and feel I have everything running great all over the house on multiple devices. First, MMW is on a 64bit computer running Windows 7 Home Premium SP1. MMW version is 4.1.0.1692. MMA version is 1.0.4.0230. MMA is running on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, a Samsung Galaxy Note 8, Samsung Galaxy S3 and a Samsung Galaxy S4. I also have MMW Server streaming wirelessly to 1 TV and to 1 Blu-Ray player. I also have it running on a 2nd TV as a wired ethernet. Lastly, I'm trying MMA with my S4 as my streaming media player in my Ford with MySync. All devices have the latest software versions loaded.
First issue is, I have not had any problem sync'g the 4 Android devices either while plugged into the computer or via wifi. Playlists update automatically and I can search MMW directly from MMA if I want to via Folders. Since the orginal setting up and subsequent syncs, I've added a few new playlists. When using UPnP and selecting either MediaMonkey Library or Server, the Note and the S4 and all the TVs see the new playlists. The Tab and the S3 though cannot see them and nothing I have done has been able to have the Tab and S3 be able to see the new playlists including full uninstall/installs on both devices. I tried via wired or wifi sync and nothing. In Media Servers options, I have checkmarked the new playlists as evidenced by the other devices being able to see the new playlists. Any thoughts?
Second issue is my ethernet wired TV (Samsung), it has no problem seeing the Mediamonkey Server and Mediamonkey library. I can use playlists or navigate using folders. Files play after selecting them but only play for a short time and then stop playing and the system loses connection as the TV senses there is no connection. My other system plays perfectly over the same LAN with the difference it is wireless. Sorry if this is not a Android specific question.
Third issue, small one. With the Ford MySync, the stock media player on the S4 worked great bluetooth streaming to the MySync. MMA on the S4 works also except song title will only display the first song in the playlist and stay there while other songs play. If you pause the radio and then start again on subsequent songs, the correct song title will come up. Skip forward or skip back do not change the song display, only pausing it or exiting bluetooth streaming all together and coming back in again. Stock media player did not have this issue.
Any assistance or help you can provide on these issues would be great and I look forward to your response
