I have a question: I have two copies of my music collection, one on my home server and one on my laptop. I do all of my organizing with MM on my laptop, and then push changes to the server. The actual upload to google music is handled by the server. Can I install the syncing program on my laptop ...

fatnastic! I will be following on githubb.

Simon, this is great news. I hope that you make your syncing script open source so people can help out with it, I know I'd like to contribute what I can (I have some experience with Python, and would love to help). Are you planning to maintain a thread on these forums for people to keep up with ...

Jiri

Oh man. That is exciting.

awesome, thank you.

One last question: what languages will I need to be working with? I know Android apps are written in java, so the widget will have to be written in that. But what about the MM side?

The only thing now is that I've never coded any application more complex than a simple perl script in my life. haha

awesome, thank you.

I see this forum doesn't get a lot of traffic...at this point all I want is a simple yes/no as to whether the MM API would allow for something like this.

I just switched to Android, and I love my new phone. But I really miss being able to sync ratings with MediaMonkey. So much so that I am thinking of developing a widget to give me the functionality I need. Ignoring that I am a really inexperienced coder, I just want to know if my idea is even ...

Playback history and rating synchronization. This can't be solved by MM alone, there are some possibilities to be explored in the future.

sigh...amazing that something that is seemingly so simple just can't be done.

not that I blame the MM devs, you understand.

I saw Jiri make a comment in another thread that Android phones will be "properly" synced starting with MM4. Does the mean that we will see correct ratings and play-count synchronization with MM4, or was that just a statement on the method of syncing and not the data that will be synced?

Does poweramp sync ratings back to Media Monkey?

thanks for the reply.

sigh...I'm about to switch to android and I'm really anxious that I won't find anything that fits my needs. I don't even need playcounts synced back and forth, just ratings.

thanks for the tip. A question just to clarify: you're saying it can read the playcounts/ratings from MM, but not write any changes back to MM?
