DLNA Server path to play playlist (not as container)

I am not sure I am asking this right or even that the question pertains to MM vs the DLNA client. I am trying to use Home Assistant to invoke play of a whole playlist where MM is the DLNA server. I've tried a bunch of formats, and variously end up playing nothing (the renderer saying it has no conte...

Re: MM5 2684 cast fails

Works fine. Sigh... blush... need to pay more attention. Sorry for the diversion, we now return control of your computer to the regularly scheduled station. PS. It oddly took a minute or two for the group as opposed to individual speakers to show up, just in case anyone else stumbles across this not...

MM5 2684 cast fails

I generally use MM for organizing a library used in a player piano, or with bluetooth on a phone, but occasionally try casting to home devices. last time (year? not sure) it worked fine to google devices on the same subnet (once I removed a secondary NIC). I was going to work with MM again and grabb...

Re: Grouped speakers do not appear at all (google cast)

OK, just upgraded to VS 2022 which appears to be the latest community edition, it shows as 17.4.1. Same thing. hardly a killer issue but will post in case it is useful to you, ticket 5135.

Re: Update Tags not appearing to work

In that case you may want to remove the original from the MediaMonkey and scan it back in. It would be really hard to figure out on what version of MediaMonkey this problem occurred, but it seems that the current version is scanning files correctly. Alternatively, you ignore that the files are list...

Re: Grouped speakers do not appear at all (google cast)

1) Did you intend to support multiple active NIC's? I am not sure it is worth the effort for typical users, but if you do, it is not working properly. AFAIR it works to discover devices on multiple NICs by binding to '0.0.0.0'; // INADDR_ANY (to bind socket to all available interfaces). And multica...

Re: Grouped speakers do not appear at all (google cast)

so with a clean persistent.json build 5.0.4.2690 doesn't detect the groups but 5.0.3 detects them? No, I think that is working fine. It was confused in my testing by two things: 1) I had a portable install from 2+ years ago, over which I installed the 5.0.4.2690, but that left in place the prior pe...

Re: Update Tags not appearing to work

One way to check is to create a copy of the file and check the copy in MediaMonkey. It should show the changes. I can tell I'm over my head in terms of techniques but I'm trying... So I copied the file (with explorer), then I did a rescan of that folder and it added it to the database. The copy doe...

Re: Update Tags not appearing to work

Do tag changes seem to be saved into those files (if you manually change a tag)? I have no idea, more precisely I have no idea how to tell. I am trusting MM's interpretation, I have no separate view of where a tag is, so I have no way to know if what I see on MM's screen is in the database, the fil...

Yes, unfortunate, and it was pretty stable there at the end.

Thanks for the confirmation.

Update Tags not appearing to work

I am running MM 5.0.4.2690 on Windows 10x64 Pro with Gold version, returning it to it after a couple of years. I have been working to clean up metadata (this is a seemingly endless job but the tools are quite nice for doing so). If I go to the "Files to edit" / "DB / Tag mismatches&qu...

GPM -> YTM - no sync, right? Voice Commands

I am getting back into this after a couple years away, just got the gold version and using Windows and Android (to the extent that matters)... My understanding is Google Music having disappeared (and my previously synchronized files all moved over), and YouTube Music lacking an API, there is no long...

Re: Grouped speakers do not appear at all (google cast)

Most likely Portable pinged group to re-announce to network and 2690 picked it up I spent a bunch of time experimenting and I think I understand the issue. The short version is that I have a complicated PC and network setup and I was testing in a configuration unlikely to be common. If you want the...
