Re: To flac or not....

To FLAC or Not ....... For newly ripped tracks I would say "why not" as HD space is cheap and why lose audio info if you don't need to. A related question is : Is it worth en-encoding previously ripped tracks to FLAC? Unless they are ripped below 160kps MP3 I would say it is just not worth...

MediaMonkey, Remotes and Mobile Listening

A few comments on MediaMonkey’s place in the music sphere 1) Remote control of Media Monkey with an IPAD I have a 2 level house with a Mediamonkey PC connected to central AV unit connected to speakers upstairs and down. Got an IPAD for free and discovered that it makes a great remote control for Med...

IPAD Support

Inherited a IPAD2 ....... would have never bought one

Syncs perfectly with Media Monkey ....

Knowing Apple I am guessing that coding MM to sync with an IPAD must have been a very painful undertaking.

Thanks for all your efforts.

Re: Metro Player Layout Poll

Hi Dread

As usual your skins are well laid out and functional with a good pleasing neutral colour scheme.

My only suggestion is to make the song title as big as feasible so those with remotes can see it from the couch.

Re: Very Rare "POPS" in playing MP3s with MM4 4.0.5.1510

What dB value do you have set? A high dB value can cause this, it shouldn't be an issue at 89dB. If it is you may want to re-analyze the volume of the track (you need to disable the option that only does this for unknown leveling adjustment). Actually I never touched this setting and it was 89db by...

Very Rare "POPS" in playing MP3s with MM4 4.0.5.1510

Regarding Very Rare "POP" artifacts in playing MP3s with MM4 4.0.5.1510 (and previous) I had a issue that was bugging me for a while and I thought I would describe it so others don't have to figure it out the hard way.... Issue: One track in about 200 has a completely repeatable "POP&...

Hotkeys to announce artist or song title

Hotkeys that announce artist or song title on command using the Windows 7 speech engine would be a good addition for remote control users. A few scripts have been written but as far as I know none work in MM4 and none will do it on command via a hotkey. A hotkey is nice because most wouldn't want ev...

Re: Feedback on Android app for MediaMonkey

After using MM Remote more I am even more impressed with it. It is very polished considering it just came out. Being able to control the windows system volume is a very nice touch. The search works very well too. It would be easier if ratings were searchable by stars instead of percent but that is a...

Re: Feedback on Android app for MediaMonkey

Curiosity led me to try out this Android Remote. Setup was easy, the only problem I had was with my own firewall blocking requests. Works like a charm.... very responsive and a good control feature set. Both server and client was written very well written with good instructions. The only small issue...

Re: G-Monkey v1.0.0.0 [MM4] (17.07.2012)

Another well crafted script ... new favourite

I had to make the song title bigger and substitute gray stars for the bright yellow ones, but that is just a matter of taste.

Thanks for the skin

Re: mm4 1984 breaks player controls

This is a very bad bug for me that makes MM almost unusable ..... I had to revert back to MM1476 to completely eliminate the issue with the player controls freezing MM. I have a feeling it may be something to do with USB support conflicting with my ESET NOD32 antivirus application which also scans U...

mm4 1984 breaks player controls

Mm1984 has an issue with player controls causing mm to crash on my system. Skiping to the next or previous track does it reproducibly. Reverting to 1981 completely removes issue
