Is there a 64 bit build of MMW5?

Which Build (Help > About) of MediaMonkey 2024 are you experiencing this with?

AS much as I like and enjoy MediaMonkey, 2024, it is always crashing and locking up on me. I have had several computers and the same problem. I am a lifetime Gold user, and I was really expecting a solid program.

Also, is the issue occurring with MediaMonkey 5.0.5? If yes, before sending a debug log, I'd suggest trying out the most recent MediaMonkey 2024 Release Candidate to see if it solves the problem.

Please let us know--thanks!

Please capture this in a debug log (step 4b) and attach the log to a Support Ticket: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=86643

A developer will analyze it so the issue can be fixed.

one thing I noticed about MMW5 is that it is just a 32bit application? (At least, the one I have installed is only 32 bit)
Is there 64 bit build available too? (Surely the large majority of Windows OS's are 64 bits these days? Would it not improve performance when dealing with music libraries of terabyte size to have a native 64bit application? Or would it make no difference...?)
There's another post about this somewhere and one of the mods said something about them trying it out and it seemed to perform worse than 32bit version

Which Build (Help > About) of MediaMonkey is crashing and what are you doing at the time?

MM 5.0.2.2531 loads in mere seconds, is currently using around 650 MB of RAM, and running smooth as butter. Just sayin'

How often does it crash, though. I just discovered it to sort and deal with my music library from the past 20+ years of just dumping everything thats .mp3 into a folder. So many duplicates. I have crashed 7 times in the (less than) 24 hours its been installed. Ryzen 5800X3D, 64 GB 3600mHz ram.

i feel a 64 bit version my help, like someone else said, keep a 32 bit version for legacy users.

That is individual files which are all likely relatively small. The main problem MediaMonkey can run into is the size of the database file and that has not been an issue yet.

Can we also work on a 16 bit version?

In my experience only programs which use gigabyte sized files benefit from 64bit,

My music library is 702GB #justsayin

In my experience only programs which use gigabyte sized files benefit from 64bit, and most 64bit versions I have seen use much more ram, and do not perform any better (in my experience worse) than their 32 bit originals.

Even Windows 11 is perfectly capable of running 32-bit stuff very well.

So my vote is definitely concentrate on improving the existing 32bit versions. I can see no reason to rush for the other.

There is only a 32 bit version and it should work just as well. What problem did you experience with MediaMonkey?

by **rlamb515@gmail.com** » Thu Dec 02, 2021 10:59 am

I had Win 10 and now upgraded to Win 11. I notice Media Monkey is 32 bit. Isnt there a 64 bit version? How do I download that one if there is? I have the Gold 5 version currently. Could be why I have had issues with your software. Thank you

When it comes to that and MM gets out on x64 we can talk about it. x86 have its purpose.

Is there a 64 bit build of MMW5?
