Re: Lost Playback Sound

It's likely that the wrong output device is selected. Did you check the Volume as outlined: https://www.mediamonkey.com/support/knowledge-base/mediamonkey-playback/no-sound-corrupted/ In MediaMonkey 5 there definitely is Options under Tools in the Main Menu. In MM4 there is another Tools that isn't...

Re: Lost Playback Sound

MM4 and MM5 run independently. Does MM4 have Tools>Options? Tools>Options is a fundamental part of MM. If it is absent: Reinstallation. https://i.ibb.co/YPQNrCc/Options.jpg This menu MUST be present. If another program is using the speakers in exclusive mode, no other program can use them simultani...

Re: Lost Playback Sound

I guess I've given up ever using MM again. I can't get my speakers to play MM music on MM4 or MM5. It plays on everything else... Windows Media Player, YouTube, etc. Question: If I uninstall both MM4 and MM5 and reinstall MM5, is there any chance that this will fix my problem? Also, under MM5, I hav...

Lost Playback Sound

My speakers seem to work okay... on everything but MM. I really don't know what precipitated this, but one day my speakers stopped working all together. I plugged my headphones into my speaker output and no sound. So, I started playing with the settings. And... there are a lot of settings. But event...

How do I move MM music to a new computer?

I couldn't find a better place to ask this... sorry if it's in the wrong place.
I'm looking at a new PC. Of course I'll want to move all my music and tags to the new PC.
If I move the library... Does that move the tags too?
Or are they in a different file?

Thanks.

Re: MM is unstable

No - How do I "completely optimize" the database?
... and why would an unoptimized DB affect code execution?
(other than slowing it down)

Re: MM is unstable

In reading the bug reports... it seems that a lot of people are experiencing instability. I stopped treating MM as a threaded program. In other words, I only do one thing at a time. Previously, I would rip one CD and edit tags for other CDs at the same time. Suddenly, most (not all) of my problems d...

Re: MM is unstable

Nothing is consistent in causing the problems, but many of the results are consistent. The most common is ... it just stops ripping. Stuttering... There is nothing wrong with my CD/DVD reader. It's one big stutter, not a bunch of little ones. The song will play for 3-4 seconds... then restart. Then ...

MM is unstable

MM has become totally unstable. Yes, it might run for a rip or 2, but then it does something weird. I tried to document the weirdities ... here are just a few: I enter a different <Year> ... like 1997 - it doesn't take. It won't find Freedb data... it just hangs - I have to restart MM. It "stut...

MM COM Elevator on Win 7 Pro

Multiple problems popped up with V4.1.20.1864: Most noticeably MediaMonkey COM Elevator keeps popping up every time I start MM. I unchecked "Re-associate File Types on startup" ... It's still pops up. When I insert a CD sometimes it starts playing ... sometimes not. When I hit Rip CD somet...

iPod Classic Problem

I'm sorry if this is a repost. I'm having a lot of trouble navigating this newsgroup. I got a new iPod Classic 7th Gen. I'm running win 7. I was able to sync my iPhone. But I can't get my new iPod to sync. The problem may be at the system level. The system sees the device but asks to format it befor...
