Re: Essential Now Playing (MM to OBS/txt file) alternative?

Nevermind. I already have working code to implement one of these features. I noticed the source code for the addon is here: https://github.com/ventismedia/mediamonkey-addons/tree/main/output-now-playing-to-file Is this the correct source location? And if so, is it OK for me to submit a pull request ...

Re: Essential Now Playing (MM to OBS/txt file) alternative?

Hello. I'm also interested in using this plugin to help with my livestreams. A few questions: - I tried using the "Before" and "After" configs to add dynamic fields like <album> or <filename> but it didn't work; is there any way to get extra information beyond just the artist + title? - How can I ...

How to backup the MM5 preferences? (crashes)

Hello. Long time MediaMonkey Gold user here. Ever since I've upgraded to MM5 I've been getting random crashes on startup almost every day. There's no LOG ID or any information; just a couple of buttons to "restart" "retry" or "ignore". Only restart works, so I usually press that. However, sometimes ...

Re: Global hotkeys / media keys don't work

Hi, I do not have a problem as I create Macro Hotkey in Logitech App. Do not have Asus ROG PC hardware except ASUS Routers (an MSI Fan) to test with ROG software.

Re: Hotkeys do not work

Hello. I just had this exact same problem 1 week ago, and the MediaMonkey team helped me solve it with the help of an auxiliary tool called MMKeys.exe (that you can shortcut to the desktop). Here's the thread where this was posted: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=97068&p=471086 ...

Re: Global hotkeys / media keys don't work

Sorry for the double posting, but I'd also like to think about a plan B: Is there any other way to achieve the same functions as the global hotkeys, without using them directly? Are there any command-line arguments that I can call from a Powershell console, for example, to tell MediaMonkey to Play ...

Yes, I only need 4 hotkeys, and they are all global. I have just tried deleting all 4, and creating them again to be sure, but the problem persists. Here's what I have at the moment: Action - Hotkey - Global Playback: Next File - Media Next - Yes Playback: Play/Pause - Media Play/Pause - Yes ...
