Media sharing queries (MM as client)

Post by Panander »

Hello all ...

I have all of my music files on a home server and use MM as a client.

I find that Volume levelling does not work. All the files were previously analyzed and do contain the volume data. Is this correct?

Also I am finding that quite a few tracks will only play for around 20 seconds before jumping to the next one. This is very annoying. Is this a known problem?

1) I don't think volume leveling tags are passed along as DLNA only supports few fields.

2) What's the server and what version of MediaMonkey are you running. In very limited uses of MediaMonkey as client I haven't noticed this (it is also the server on another PC in those scenarios).

Thats a shame about the volume. Other software does this (foobar being one) so would it be possible to add the feature?

The server is Amahi running on Ubuntu Server 12.04. I am running MM v4.06.1501.

This is happening on three PC's all running MM.

Running foobar for comparison (sorry!) displays no problems at all.

Does Foobar see the volume level values in the tags when operating as DLNA client?

Yes it does. Using ReplayGain.

1) http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=9963

2) You should create a debug log (step 4b) capturing this track skip issue and send it to support: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=69
