Quick start info?

Hi,
Yes, something like that, the plan is that MMS serve as main headless library, allowing you to play media, sync and have multiple PCs connect to it with own local libraries eg. multi platform MM manager access simultaneously MMS and have things in sync.

That sounds amazing! Ill definitely give the alpha/beta a try. If it works ill probably get the RAID setup and cross my fingers development progresses!

It will, but with slower pace. Current plan is to first release multi platform MM5, starting with MAC OS. Then we will have real reason to get things in sync with MMS.

I tested MMS on my Windows 10 laptop a couple months back. At that time, I was able to run the server, log in, and access the files on a different system. I finally got some time to install based on the instructions for my Synology DiskStation. On extraction, when I run the server via "./mms" I get errors.

The setup guide didn't say I needed to put the mm.db in any location nor create special paths. I can do that as needed obviously, but I'm not sure if there are other prereq's I'm missing that are causing the error.

Hi,
Please make sure that "/var/services/homes/Ben_Admin/MediaMonkeyServer/" folder exist and That MMS have enough privileges to access it.

I added the required directories to make the path valid and tried again. This time I am able to connect to MMS from my laptop and am greeted with a login. After changing the location for the music I am now able to see my collection. I did notice that some files will play and others throw an exception. A few have an icon representing the album art but most don't. I don't know if the art always means it will throw an exception but it seems most/all I tried do. I can submit a ticket if it would help.

Hi,
Maybe the best would be to Write report on GitHub MMS page as noted at viewtopic.php?t=90809

MMS Will become handy very soon after MAC version of MM gets out.
