I'll look into it. There appears to also be a problem with the minimum version check in MediaMonkey itself, which I reported to the devs.

Could MonkeyMote be update to support MM 2024? Currently Version: 1.8.6 does not work with MM 2024.

Thank you.

Further contact with Martin at MonkeyMote finally solved the problem with installation of new version of MediaMonkey 5 package Version: 1.8.5. Many thanks Martin.

I am runningMM5 (5.0.4.2690) on a Windows 11 Microsoft Surface Pro (connected to my sound system) and using MonkeyMote HD on an iPad Pro running iPadOS 16.4.1 (a) as my remote control, with a music library of just over 2000 albums. The album files are stored in a music folder on a NAS, which I access with a fixed IP address (both the tablet and the NAS are connected via an ethernet network). Until recently, all worked beautifully, except for the occasional album that lost its album art (cover) in MonkeyMote (although all displayed fine in MM).

Wanting to solve the occasional artwork glitch, I decided to uninstall MonkeyMote HD and reinstall it, thinking I would start with a clean slate. However, now MonkeyMote refuses to display any album art at all! When I select an album to play, its cover becomes visible, but the album view shows no art at all. I have checked out MonkeyMote for Android and I have the same problem. I have been in touch with Martin at MonkeyMote, but have not been able to fix this.

I would be very grateful for any suggestions.

The package got messed up, my bad! It's fixed now

No prob!

Thanks very much for your help!!

Looks like the MMIP he provides is not in the correct format. I'll contact the developer and show him how to get it in the right format.

In the meantime:
1. Open the mmip you downloaded as a zip (rename it to .zip and then open it)
2. Navigate to build/mediamonkey5
3. Drop gen_monkeymote.dll into MM's Plugins folder (%appdata%\MediaMonkey5\Plugins) and restart MediaMonkey.

EDIT: Just tested, yes, it works when you manually drop the DLL into the Plugins folder.

Nope. But if you go to MonkeyMote.com you’ll see it there. I guess I have to wait for that team.

I am trying to install the MonkeyMote addon for MM5 and I keep getting “invalid addon.” I have emailed MonkeyMote support but figured I’d check on this side of the installation too. Anybody encounter this?

Play Store change log for app MMremote:

Made ready for MM5 (this app will show an error message when connecting to an MM5 server -- a new app will be available for MM5 soon).

It has features that I treasure that aren't currently in MonkeyMote.
I tried sending extra money in the hopes that would guilt him/her...

Yup - I'm in contact with the MMRemote dev and they're working on an updated version to work with MM5.
