Track randomly restarts and plays over and over
Hi Folks For some time (on various releases) I get a random "fault" where a track in the playlist just restarts and plays over and over. Today this happened after about 3 hours of play. Currently running 5.1.0.2825 and playing to speakers using chromecast (I don't have any wired speakers a...

MM5 5.1.0.2813 Randomly starts playing after pause
Hi Folks Running 5.1.0.2813 and several times now I have noticed that when playing is paused, it has just randomly started playing again, even with no one sitting at the computer to press the play button. I do have mmRemote on mobile but that wasn't even launched to interact with MM5. Anyway..... if...

Playing to Google Chromecast After Modem reboot
Hi folks Running 5.1.0.2811 on Windows 11. Its playing pretty well to Google Chromecast devices. Today (for some unknown reason) my WIFI was working but no internet connection on WIFI or via Ethernet, so it required modem restart. MM was running OK before then, so WIFI OK but no internet. After mode...

Re: Shuffle not working as it used to [#18988]
Thanks Rob and Peke So, the "Shuffle button" will now become a manual shuffle (or re-shuffle) button rather than an indicator that "shuffle is on" (as in previous versions). I agree with the approach :) as it does mean you can easily see what has played recently and what is comin...

Shuffle not working (as expected) on 5.1.0.2811
Hi folks Recently installed V5.1.0.2811 which appears to have fixed the issue I had with playing to google (chromecast) devices :) I am quite confused about the "shuffle" in this version though. When selecting a playlist using "Play Shuffled" --> "Play now" it appears t...

Volume Slide not working when playing to DLNA speaker
Hi Guys When casting to chromecast devices the volume slider on MM5 (on PC) works fine. But when I play to DLNA Samsung TV (to play through the soundbar) the volume slider stays at the very bottom and I can't control the volume from MM on the PC. When I lift the volume slider up (volume doesn't chan...

Content displayed on TV when Casting/DLNA
Hi Guys I searched but couldn't find anything about this. I have started playing MM to my Samsung TV via DLNA which then plays through soundbar and subwoofer. At the moment (on the TV) I get a thumbnail image, song title, Artist and the tracks progression as it plays. Is there any way to change what...

Re: WIFI Vs Bluetooth Speakers
Sorry guys..... please forget about the "Bluetooth" component of the topic..... that was my original tangent months ago when looking for a solution. Just looking at WIFI now :) Lowlander. It supports Chromecast (I assume). It appears in the list as "[AV] SOUNDBAR (Google Cast)". ...

Re: WIFI Vs Bluetooth Speakers
Hi Guys I have started again to investigate an ongoing problem I have with the Samsung Sandbar. It just becomes "inaccesssible or turned off" in Media Monkey so I have to play to a different speaker (mainly Google branded ones). The Soundbar connects to my WIFI via SmartThings and I can al...

Re: WIFI Vs Bluetooth Speakers
Thanks Lowlander I will try to reset the Samsung soundbar (again). You might be able to help with something I have noticed about speakers appearing in the "Cast" list. I just unplugged the soundbar from the wall. Launched MM and it still appears in the "cast" list as "Soundb...

Re: Finding WIFI speakers after MM starts
Hi Lowander
I'm on 5.03.2637 and it seems to happen with all devices. For example I plugged in my google Home after MM had started and it didn't appear in my list. Same happened for my AMP which users its own music server and MM only found that as well after restarting MM.

Finding WIFI speakers after MM starts
Hi guys and gals I have about 10 WIFI (mainly google) speakers and Chromecast devices. When I launch MM it finds the devices that are already turned on. Most of them usually are on, but I have some like a mobile speaker and also an AMP that aren't always on. I find that when I turn them on, and MM i...

Re: MediaMonkey with Google Assistant support
I agree that Google Assistant support would be awesome. We voice control lights, speaker volume, etc and now MM5 still doesn't have remote control (yet) then skipping to next track by voice command would certainly fill a partial gap. Both features would be better :) Any timeframe for google assistan...
