MediaMonkey for Windows 2024.2.0.3165 beta

Post by rusty »

Hi,

Here's a new MMW build that includes another 10 fixes and improvements, including the addition of Turkish and Hebrew languages and a new much-requested option to save column settings across nodes (it's in Options > Library > Fields/Columns).

Also, heads up to translators: strings will be frozen in the next beta build in preparation for the 2024.2 release.
[EDIT: I'd originally indicated that the strings had been finalized, but some changes related to the new shared column settings did not make it into this build)

  • Double-click the downloaded file and follow the installation instructions.
