Confirm Playlist Duplicate dialog off the screen [#7152]

Post by thefaceman »

When I move playlists from one playlist to another there are sometimes duplicates. When the 'Confirm' dialog window appears the 'YES' and 'NO' button are off my computer screen and I have to move the window to click the NO button (FYI - I never want them to be added).

Unfortunately for the 'Confirm' window there are no 'hot-key's either so I either have to move the window or tab a few times and click the enter key.

FYI - I do a move from playlist to playlist quite often (about 50 times a week)

What is the time frame for the release of 4.0.0.1344? Is there any way I can test this change?

It's already available in the Beta forum, actually 1345 is already out.

I keep finding multiple 'betas' and I am not sure which one I should install. Although I am leery to install. Can I revert to current version if the beta one does 'bad things'? Can you post a link to the one I need to install?

You need to install the last one posted which is build 1345: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... 25#p284625

These are Alpha's and contain many bugs, it's only recommended to install if you wish to participate in testing and you should backup all your data before doing so. You can't revert back to MediaMonkey 3 in the sense that the MediaMonkey 4 database is not backwards compatible (so keep a backup copy of your MediaMonkey 3 database). Otherwise you can uninstall and reinstall MediaMonkey 3.

Again this is just for testing purposes and bugs exist in these releases.

Also there are some incompatibilities between MM3 and MM4 in terms of certain settings being shared, etc. If you are only considering upgrading for this fix, I would not do it. That bug is not very big of a deal and you're running some serious risk of data loss/other problems if you don't take the proper precautions.
