Extending MediaMonkey's Functionality |
|
MediaMonkey's functionality can be extended through the use of various addons found at the MediaMonkey Addons site. These include:
| • | scripts that add a variety of different functions, such as looking up metadata & Album Art, playing music automatically based on last-fm preferences, switching metadata fields, playing random whole albums, etc. |
| • | skins that change the look of MediaMonkey |
| • | translations of MediaMonkey to other languages |
| • | plug-ins that change audio properties |
To install most addons other than plug-ins:
| 1. | Download an addon from the MediaMonkey Addons site. |
| 2. | On Windows Vista or Windows 7 select the MediaMonkey icon and 'Run as administrator' (this is required to properly install addons). |
| 3. | Double-click the downloaded .MMIP file to install the extension. |
| 4. | Restart MediaMonkey and the new functionality will be accessible. |
Note: Some older scripts may not be packaged as .MMIP files (e.g. Newscript.vbs). For those, copy the script to MediaMonkey's /scripts/auto folder OR save the script to MediaMonkey's /scripts folder and then define the script in MediaMonkey's "\Scripts\Scripts.ini" file (as described in the script's documentation).
