1375: This is on Windows XP SP3, clean install of build 1375, Pentium D (dual core) at 3.0Ghz (circa 2005).
I have registered this Beta build as Gold using my official Lifetime license key. When I go into Help --> About, MM is showing my correct licensing information and is correctly reporting that this is a Gold version of MM.
In Tools --> Options... --> General --> Performance --> Use Multiple CPU Cores (if available)
The drop-down lists here correctly show that I have two cores... I am given the choice of 1, 2 or All for the number of cores I want to use for the four items (Auto-Conversion, Conversion, Ripping and Volume Analysis).
However, if I attempt to change a drop-down to anything other than 1, MM immediately pops this dialog:
The standard version of MediaMonkey is optimized for single-core processors. For optimized performance on multi-core processors, please upgrade to MediaMonkey Gold.
To upgrade or learn more about MediaMonkey Gold, click the 'Upgrade' button.
I am given an "OK" button and an "Upgrade" button. Clicking the "Upgrade" button sends me to a web page about MM gold. Clicking the "OK" button returns me to the Options screen
and reverts my choice of cores back to 1.
