Re: wasapi stuttering in windows 7 64bit

There's also another distinct possibility: DPC latency. Here's one thread that talks about it and helps diagnose whether you're suffering from it. I was pulling my hair out over why MediaMonkey was skipping a few months ago, no matter what I was doing, until I tracked it down to this. This could ver...

Re: Status notifications/Status on lock screen: what do they

Setting both to on, with Display set to "Current track #", if I have a different application in the foreground, when the track changes, nothing shows anywhere (News + Tiny Death Star in front). Hmm... interesting. So I do see MediaMonkey's status notification... but only when I change vol...

Re: Status notifications/Status on lock screen: what do they

Which is what I figured... but they don't work for me. Setting both to on, with Display set to "Current track #", if I have a different application in the foreground, when the track changes, nothing shows anywhere (News + Tiny Death Star in front). With it still playing, if I bring up the ...

Tag updates not propagating?

I had a couple of albums with bad metadata (one, mmw thought had a release date of 200, even though the field had 2000, and the other I'd somehow managed to forget to put a release date in). I updated those with mmw, and rescanned them in mm8... except mm8 doesn't seem to be catching the tag updates...

Albums → Play All initially sorts in semi-random order

If you go to Albums, tap and hold an album, the track listing is semi-random. If you pick Play All, the album will be played in that semi-random order. However, if you then open the album, then back out to the Albums view, then tap and hold the album again, the track listing will then be in track or...

Album Sort Bugs (more)

When first tapping on Albums, it looks like the list of albums are unsorted (they're not sorted by the "view by X" option in the upper right). You need to force a re-select the "view by X" option to get them sorted again (so pick a different X then back, if you want it to sort b...

Re: Album art: using something other than Folder.jpg?

Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like they work (i.e. Folder.jpg has priority over, say, Cover.jpg, when re-scanning the album in after removing it). :(

Status notifications/Status on lock screen: what do they do?

I've been poking at the "Show status notifications" and "Show status on lock screen" toggles, and I cannot for the life of me figure out what they do. On Windows 8.1, after I turn them on, and when MM8 is set as a lock screen app (or, for that matter, even if it's set as the app ...

Re: How to have same ratings and other metadata in MM8 and M

From what I've seen, any type of communication between synchronization between MM8 and MMW (even on the same computer) will require upgrading MM8 to MM8 Pro (costing $4.99). If that's not the case, I'd love to know myself! :P Edit: Ah, here we go You need to understand MediaMonkey for Desktop (MMW) ...

Album art: using something other than Folder.jpg?

Hi there, I have a fair number of albums that have non-square album art, and so that Windows Media Center will display them "properly," I've letterboxed the Folder.jpg versions of the album art. However, I'd like MediaMonkey to use the original versions of those files. Is there a way to ha...

Status of issue 6221?

I'm curious about the status of issue 6221, something I've been waiting on for a few years now. It's currently marked with a target version of 4.1 - any chance we'll be seeing it before 4.1 is released to production? Thanks! :D
