2262: Today mm5 opened with different settings [#16888]
TOday it opened with the default skin and layout. It closed down correctly last night so that is not the issue.

Re: 2262: Today mm5 opened with different settings
Hello there,
i did a portable installation of the new build 2262 and this time at least some of the personalized layout were not present anymore. So i can confirm what dtsig is speaking about. The image size of the album art was set back to 100 % and in the preview my setting "artwork only" was overwritten or ignored.
greetings

edit: in my auto-playlists my personalized entries and order of the colums is set back too. The Player was set back too in position and in appearance. And i cannot copy and paste playlists any longer (may not be the same cause).

Re: 2262: Today mm5 opened with different settings
Are you saying updating lost those settings (if so from which version) or that when starting 2262 again these settings were lost?

I have to add another item. The update from 2261 to 2262 took all my own hotkeys.

Right click > Customize Player and enable Waveform bar from options (or Tools > Options > Player).

Re: 2262: Today mm5 opened with different settings
Hi, this has also just started happening to me - UI & other settings getting reset - after the recent 2262 beta.
Each time, I've been able to restore my settings from my iDrive cloud backup - this has happened to me twice so far - and been able to get on my way again.
From the looks of it, on my machine at least, it seems the persistent.json in "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\MediaMonkey5" gets reset somehow, and restoring an older version of this file, also restores my previous settings again.

Re: 2262: Today mm5 opened with different settings
Using MM5 today (still 2262) was such a surprise. All my individual settings are gone again ....
Guys, as long as you leave the integrity of my music files all is okay, because it is still a Beta. Still i like MM 5 to open how i want it to open .
If it helps finding the error: I have got a second portable installation with all my Jazz and Pop and Rock stuff. Of course in another directory. I did not open that second installation (which is still 2261 by the way) in the last days, but today before i opened the mm5 2262.

Re: 2262: Today mm5 opened with different settings
So you have two portable installations (first 2261 and second 2262) and after you've run 2261, your settings from 2262 is lost ? Do you have defined custom database name ? ini file in default location ?

Re: 2262: Today mm5 opened with different settings
No, i don't share a database. Last time i have edited the ini.file was maybe with Mediamonkey 2 or 3 .
i only can say that I did not use the 2261 for several days. But the strange behaviour started nontheless after updating the classical 2261 to 2262. Maybe it is just a coincidence without any relation.
I could update the rock/pop 2261 to 2262 too and we will see if the strange behaviour of 2262 will stop.

Re: 2262: Today mm5 opened with different settings
For what it's worth, I think my settings-reset-bug in 2262 may be triggered, when I leave MM5 open after I restart, or shutdown, my PC.
