Library server

Post by MabelVanA »

Newbee question: when looking for UPnP servers on my LAN I see MM-server but also 'MM library'. Why is that and what's the difference?
Thanks! Mabel

Hi,
I guess you have MM5 as renderer (you can cast to renderer) and MM library server. You can check if you have Multiple Servers in Tools -> Options -> Library -> Media Sharing.

Hi Peke, thanks for reply. Sure I can see on MMW5 that both 'MediaMonkey server' and 'MidiaMonkey Library' are running but my question is: what is the difference? Why 2 servers? I asked just out of interest; it's not bothering me. :)

You can remove one of the servers. This is a left over from an old MediaMonkey 4 upgrade, but it isn't needed (and often not useful).
