MediaMonkey forum

I recently reinstalled MediaMonkey 5 (latest version), and then attempted to download and install the Dr. Sol skin. Unfortunately, the interface became unworkable, as illustrated below, with static text that is not clickable.

After attempting to restart in Safe Mode, it would display the Menus as well as both horizontal and vertical scrolling bars, rendering the interface unusable because it would not enable me to pick anything that would have allowed me to go in and select another skin. To restore the interface's functionality, I had to delete the persistent.json file from AppData. I then tried it on a second system and got the same result. One system has an Asus/AMD RX480, while the other has an Asus/AMD RX560, both of which have up-to-date drivers. Anyone know what's going on here, or is it a problem in the skin code?

Hi,

The Dr. Sol's Perpetual skin has been broken for a while and as far as I'm awar, the author hasn't responded or updated it. It's supposed to be hidden from the addons list until it's fixed. Did it show up as installable from within MediaMonkey itself, or did you download it from a forum post?

I also can't find many of his MM5+ skins at https://www.mediamonkey.com/addons/brow ... 1/skins-1/ Only https://www.mediamonkey.com/addons/brow ... en-dreams/ and MM4 ones https://www.mediamonkey.com/addons/brow ... nce/skins/

It is most likely in Skin Code as from I remember he changes MM native files in order to get some results and they became obsolete and skins code created issues in MM itself (as you observe).

Can you point out where you downloaded the skin and/or send us skin install file for analyze.
