I have most current version Media Monkey2024 ,Gold license. I have been using Media Monkey for over 18 years.
I have 4784 WMA files in my Music directory on an external drive. When I scan, these files are not found. The approx. 30,000 mp3's ,no problem However I can explicitly open one of the files and MM will play it; and of course Windows Media Player will play it. Furthermore in Tools/Options/Library , WMA is listed as a supported audio format.
When Media Monkey plays it ,there is no info shown, no title artist ,length ,metadata. I can also scan WAV files
I have had these same files scan into my library previously ,on several laptops (3) . NEVER had a problem before.
I'm pretty sure the problem is Media Monkey NOT the files. I converted a mp3 file to wma and Media Monkey will not scan it .
Any advice ?? I don't want to do a new install of Media Monkey and I don't want to try and find almost 5000 wma files to convert to Mp3
