Methods Added Post 5.0
Methods and features added to MediaMonkey after version 5.0.0
If you are making an addon for MediaMonkey that includes any of the following methods or features, please do the following:
- Include the property minAppVersion inside info.json, with the appropriate version.
- When uploading your addon to the MediaMonkey addons listing, insert the appropriate minimum app version.
We have put methods/features that are most likely to be used by addon developers on the top of the list.

Side note: The property minAppVersion was added in 5.0.2, so it will technically not be enforced when a user attempts to install an addon on 5.0.0 or 5.0.1. However, we would like our addon developers to please get in the habit of checking the correct compatibility for their addons and skins.
