MediaMonkey on ubuntu (or linux)

I like to have MM on Android synced with MMW. That's it. Nothing more. I have installed Win 10 only to have MMW at hand.
But generally I only work and play music on Linux (Mint). As a nice music player I found Lollypop. Syncing doesn't work, but it doesn't matter.
All playlists have relative paths so I can use them in MMW, MMA and Lollypop.
I struggled with Wine in many cases in the past until I decided to avoid it.

On another note, something that helped me work around the issue was not directly using mediamonkey. Instead, I start mediamonkey and configure it share it's library on the network. Then I just use another player or mpd to connect to that local mediamonkey instance via dlna. In this configuration mediamonkey is essentially just a dlna server on localhost. It serves the media files, but the actual rendering is done by the client. That pretty much eliminated all codec or playback related issues for me.

Rename downloaded MAD input plugin (for example) -> Rename MMIP to ZIP -> Extract DLL to MM plugins folder and restart MM it should be there.

All plugins are detected when extracting and copying the dlls into the folder. But still no success with the latest MediaMonkey2024 beta / debug version.
