Introduction
MediaMonkey for Android (MMA) can Synchronize media files and associated metadata (Album Art, play history, etc.) via wi-fi Sync with MediaMonkey for Windows (MMW). This requires both MediaMonkey for Android and MediaMonkey for Windows.
Before starting Sync it's recommended to read the full Sync documentation from MediaMonkey for Windows.
Initial Setup
Before being able to do the first Sync, the Sync needs to be setup. This can be done in 2 ways:
- Via USB, for this connect your device via USB to the PC running MMW. MMW will then create a device profile which will contain all the Sync settings.
- Via wi-fi, this sets up the Device Profile when first connecting via wi-fi to the MMW Server.
To be able to Sync you'll need to setup the connection in MMA in both cases.
Wi-fi Sync Setup
To setup the connection the first time:
- Select Sync in the menu in MMA
- Select the UPnP Server from the MMW installation you want to Sync with (ie. MediaMonkey 5 (Server)). MMW will show a prompt asking access permissions the first time you connect to it from MMA.
- Click Next
- Enable the storage's you want Synced to. MMA will create a Device Profile per storage found on your device
- Modify any Sync settings for each storage enabled, more on this below
- Click Sync Now to initiate the wi-fi Sync
If you didn't select any content to be Synced nothing will be Synced.
Sync Settings
Sync settings can be setup in either MMW or MMA after the Device Profile has been created on first connection. Either method modifies the same settings that are saved in the MMW database. Setting Sync up in MMW can be easier and exposes more settings than available in MMA.
Modifying Sync Settings in MMA
Under Settings > Library & Sync from the Menu in MMA you can:
- Use the Sync configuration wizard which guides you through the initial Sync setup.
- Set End sync on low battery which allows you to set the battery treshold at which MMA will end wi-fi Sync (this has no affect on USB Sync)
- Skip sync select storage selection which skips the screen at the start of Sync to select which storage's you want to Sync to that Sync.
- Sync settings, which allows you to set the Sync settings per storage.
