Can you clarify why to help better understand the usecase?
Thanks!
Hey @rusty, thanks for the reply.
I hope I can clearly explain my unique workflow and use-case.
I still maintain both MM4 and MM5 database. And I understand that MM5's Database and settings are incompatible with MM4. And I totally understand that.
1. Each time I add song to my library I will always add it to MM4 first. I make sure that everything are tagged and organised correctly. Once I am happy with, I will delete both "
MM5.DB" and "
MM.DB" from "
MediaMonkey5" and copy the latest "
MM.DB" from "
AppData\Roaming\MediaMonkey" to "
AppData\Roaming\MediaMonkey5".
I have a batch script for this.
2. And when I launch MM5/2024 It would prompt me to import the database from MM4. And everything is okay. My issue is, I realise that all Media Sharing Settings (UPnP/DLNA) are stored in the same "
MM.DB". And each time I import the database from MM4 all the old and outdated devices/clients are still in Media Sharing Settings.
I am able to remove and clear old devices in MM5. But each time I import the database from MM4, all the existing devices/clients from MM4 are imported back in MM5.
And I realise that I can't able to remove devices from UPnP/DLNA List in MM4. The bug is still not fixed.

Request 1, it would great if you can release a hotfix for MM4 so that users can remove devices from Media Sharing Settings (UPnP/DLNA).
Request 2, if Request 1 is not possible, in MM5 please separate all Media Sharing settings (Including all the devices/clients listings, Mac Address and IP and Shared Content) into its own setting or ini file. That way, when I import the database from MM4, MM5 would ignore all the Media Sharing settings from the database file and only read and write to the separate Media Sharing settings.
And server status should have it own log file and not be part of the database in MM5. Clearing/deleting the log file would automatically would clear list of Server Status.
I hope this can be addressed soon. Thank you.
