MediaMonkey for Windows 2024.0.0.3018 Beta

Post by rusty »

Hi,

It's been awhile, but we've been hard at work on this new beta release. It's taken longer than expected since we've made numerous under-the-hood improvements including updating the underlying chromium framework. This build includes 125 fixes and improvements, among them fixes to image lookup, stability and performance improvements, and more!

Special thanks again to Zvezdan for numerous bug reports, and to all the volunteers (Jordi X, Martin W, Timo B, Enrico B, Stefan G, Panagiotis P, Massimo C, Sanmar, Sato K, SangOh L, Ming-Yuan L, Chyuan-Fu W, Chao X, Gervásio A, Marko M, Leandro B, Alberto M, Johan V, Igor C) who've updated MMW 2024 translations!

Note:
- this build supports MediaMonkey 2024 license keys. If you purchase MMW5 now (or any time since April 2024), you'll receive an MMW 2024 license key. If you've purchased MMW5 between January 2023 and March 2024, we'll be sending out free MMW 2024 upgrades closer to release. MMW 2024 licensing is described in greater detail here.
- If you notice any translation issues, please raise them in the translation forum

MediaMonkey for Windows 2024.0.0.3019 Beta

Post by rusty »

Hi,

The last build included a huge number of changes, but also introduced a few new stability issues. This build is focused on stability improvements and memory utilization, along with a few other fixes. Note that as with the last build, the changes in this build involve numerous under-the-hood changes, so there may yet be a few more undiscovered regressions.

Note:
- this build supports MediaMonkey 2024 license keys. If you purchase MMW5 now (or any time since April 2024), you'll receive an MMW 2024 license key. If you've purchased MMW5 between January 2023 and March 2024, we'll be sending out free MMW 2024 upgrades closer to release. MMW 2024 licensing is described in greater detail here.

MediaMonkey for Windows 2024.0.0.3021 Beta

Post by rusty »

Hi,

Here's a new beta with another 10+ fixes and improvements including the ability to export to iTunes.xml so that MMW playlists can be used with apps like Traktor. There are about 10 remaining issues that we hope to fix before we post a release candidate. Let us know if you notice any showstoppers.

EDIT: ability to export to iTunes.xml is _not_ included in this build--it'll be in the next build. Apologies for the error.
