Hi,
We're releasing another beta build today because the last one included a regression that results in failed database updates from MM4. It also includes a couple of other fixes. Details are in the
changelog.

Hi,
Here's a new MM5 build with about 10 or so fixes and improvements. Details are in the
changelog.
Re. translations strings, we're in the process of setting up a translation server--it should be much easier than the poedit-based solution that we used in the past. If you're interested in helping out with this, send me a private message. Thanks!
Also, you'll notice that this latest build has a different icon (it's the icon from the version of MediaMonkey that was available on the Windows Store a few years back). We were experimenting with it, but probably won't stick with it. If you're graphically talented and have some different ideas for a MediaMonkey icon, please share them in the forum. Thanks!
