Well, it did, until the Google Play beta program started up.

Tried different apps to share to:

1) mediamonkey -> Typemail: mp3 is attached and send.
2) mediamonkey -> Dropbox: mp3 is uploaded
3) mediamonkey -> es file explorer "save as": notification "not supported". But sharing same mp3 from file explorer e.g. samsungs "eigene Dateien" (~ own files) to es file exporer "save as" works.
4) mediamonkey -> onedrive: mp3 is uploaded
5) mediamonkey -> google drive: mp3 is uploaded
6) mediamonkey -> whatsapp: notification "unsupported file type". But sharing same mp3 from file explorer e.g. samsungs "eigene Dateien" (~ own files) or es file exporer works.

So case (3) and (6) is different from older versions of mediamonkey. Where can i download older beta versions of mediamonkey for android to try which version still works?!?

So it's a "feature" of the actual mediamonkey beta. Hope it will be solved :)

Sharing MP3 over whatsapp [#13377]

Hi...

i'm currently running mediamonkey 1.1.3.0554 and whatsapp 2.16.95.

Sometimes i play a song at home over bluetooth speakers and my daughter say "oh, cool song. Please send it to me". So i select "share with...", whatsapp and my daughters account which worked flawless so far.

Now a small notification on bottom is shown "unsupported file format" (rough translation from german). But if i select that mp3 with e.g. es file explorer and share it there it works. Just with mediamonkey it doesn't work anymore.

Sure i could just grab the phone from my daughter and copy the files over usb or wifi but sharing over whatsapp was less work for me.

Question(s): It is a new limitation from mediamonkey or from whatsapp? But i assume not from whatsapp because sharing mp3 with es fileexporer and whatsapp works.

Kind regards

Gerd
