Balance Resets to 100% Left on Application Restart

Pretty straightforward bug here, the position of the balance slider is not (successfully) stored, and resets to 100% left every time the application is restarted. Version: 4.1.31.1919 License: Standard ( I have Gold, but just installed on a new machine, and haven't applied the license yet ) OS: Wind...

Re: Cycles thru tracks but plays nothing

(note that you are using OLD MM4) As previously noted above, if MM4 is obsolete and no longer functional, please advise. Your site specifically mentions syncing from MM4 to MMA, which is why I went ahead and bought MMA Pro even though I am not ready to upgrade to MM5 yet. Last time I tried a major ...

Re: Cycles thru tracks but plays nothing

USB Sync is generally an MTP Driver issue MTP works fine on both phones, and I'm able to mount them in storage mode, and copy over, for example, photos taken with the phone. Wifi Sync is generally a network issue. There is no local network issue -- both devices connect and work correctly on my netw...

Re: Cycles thru tracks but plays nothing

That's the problem of posting in multiple threads Well, when an application has hundreds of unfixed bugs, there are going to be quite a few threads. C'est la vie. If I had just one problem with Media Monkey, I would find it easy to confine my comments to one thread. But since almost nothing works, ...

Re: Cycles thru tracks but plays nothing

Do you have M4A's you're Syncing? No. My sync is configured to convert all of my FLACs to MP3. As I said in the other thread, if there are any M4As on my SD card, that would be the result of another Media Monkey bug -- such going off plan and converting to the wrong format or something. For added f...

Re: Cycles thru tracks but plays nothing

Note that MM4 is old version and MM5 was out for few months now, closing to Second stable release. Note that nowhere in your documentation do you mention incompatibility between MMA and MM4. Exactly the opposite, in fact, since your Knowledge Base repeatedly refers to using those two products in co...

Re: Cycles thru tracks but plays nothing

I am using MM4 Gold, and it still doesn't work, at all. There are no license issues in play when converting my own FLAC files to MP3. Also, all the files were allegedly sync'd... they just aren't playable. Finally, it should be almost trivial to fix the bug in which tracks are silently ignored. You ...

Re: Cycles thru tracks but plays nothing

I was hoping that a months-old issue had already been recognized -- rather than spending time testing software that I just purchased. At a minimum, there's a bug which causes tracks to be silently ignored without so much as an error message displayed. Fixing that should already be high on the list, ...

Re: MMA never stops scanning

If there are any m4a files on my portable device, that's the result of a MediaMonkey bug. I installed a new SD card, and attempted to sync my library to it -- all as MP3. To put it bluntly, that operation failed, and I can longer use my phone for very long, because MMA is slaughtering the battery fa...

Re: Cycles thru tracks but plays nothing

Was an explanation ever found here?

I just sync'd 20k MP3s from MM4 Gold to my phone, but ninety-odd percent of them exhibit the same behavior described above.

Re: MMA never stops scanning

Same here. I just bought MMA specifically for the WiFi syncing capability, but between this and several other terminal bugs, it is completely unusable. Disappointed, to say the least. [ LG G6, Android 9, 256 gb SD card. Theoretically sync'd 20k MP3s, although only about 2% are playable on the phone,...

Re: Manual Tagging Broken in 4.1.31.1919

I have proceeded with an alternate tagging solution, using different software that works, but if I have a chance later, I will file a bug. In the meantime, I noticed another bug. MM 4.1.31.1919 ignores valid "Album Artist" tags on FLAC files roughly one-third of the time. Again, there seem...

Manual Tagging Broken in 4.1.31.1919

I just upgraded to 4.1.31.1919 a couple days ago, and noticed that about a dozen recently-added albums are untaggable. I can right-click on the album and bring up the properties window, and from there I can specify the artist, album title, song titles, and whatnot. All fields appear to be saved, how...

Re: Newest update

If you are suggesting that I deleted all 20k tracks from my database, I did not, and I'm sure I would remember doing so.

If I had done so, would not all of the play history and ratings for those tracks be gone as well? All of that meta-data remains in my database.

Re: Newest update

I don't know why someone coalesced my bug report onto this thread, but these are different issues. My database is still there, and fine -- except it no longer contains any manually-created playlists.

Please read bug reports before lumping unrelated issues together, for everyone's sake.
