Hello,
I've noticed that any time MediaMonkey closes unexpectedly a lot of things revert back to the state they were in the last time I closed the player 'normally'. This is most noticeable with the currently playing track; if you open MM, choose something new to play, then force close MM via the task manager, the 'now playing' list will be in the state it was the last time you opened MM, not when it was closed. Today this also caused MM to adjust the volume for a few hundred tracks I had added recently.
This is a problem for me because I always have MediaMonkey open. I don't do anything on my computer without music playing, so closing the player is usually caused by a PC reboot or power outage, which doesn't save those changes.
I can't imagine it would be very taxing to have these things saved as they change in the player instead of when the player exits, and it's a much more elegant solution than asking the user to close the player every so often if they want changes to be saved or relatively recent. If there is already a way to do this that I have missed, I would be excited to find out. Otherwise, I'd really appreciate it as an update. Thanks!
