btw, it's not just an issue of the icon. Exposing text 'MediaMonkeyVHelper' to the user isn't really professional. It could be 'MediaMonkey Video' or 'MediaMonkey', or something else meaningful, but not such a technical term. |

This is still problematic because: a) in the compressed mixer screen, there's no difference between the 2 MM icons! Suggestion: overlay a video icon on the MM logo. b) in the full mixer screen it's unclear what MediaMonkeyVHelper is! Suggestion: 'MediaMonkey Video' Please triage. |

I just looked at 3036 and it shows two duplicate entries for 'MediaMonkey 2024'. Should one of them be for 'MediaMonkey 2024 - Video' (otherwise it just looks like a bug that there are 2 identical entries). OR am I misunderstanding the implementation and this is a test error (since I have a regular and portable installation on my device), and if so, does that mean that audio and video are now combined into a single output setting (which is fine--I just want to know)? |
|
Strange. I've just installed 3036, start video playback and opened mixer ... |
|
Can you retest with latest build as we cannot reproduce two entries with same name and icon. |

The 'issue' described by Peke isn't a bug--it's expected that the video player has a second/different icon. This bug is about duplication of the labels/icons. Tested 3037 and I'm able to replicate by playing youtube video. e.g. 1 Load trackA (audio), trackB (video), trackC (youtube) into the Playing queue 2 When trackA plays --> 'MediaMonkey 2024' appears in the mixer (permanently) 3 When trackB plays --> 'MediaMonkey Video Helper' appears in the mixer (for the duration of the video playback) 4 When trackC plays --> A second instance of 'MediaMonkey 2024' appears in the mixer (permanently)! EDIT: - A temporary fix would be for the instance associated with YouTube audio to appear as 'MediaMonkey 2024 (YouTube)' so that it can be distinguished from the other instance. - A more permanent fix is described in 0021089 in which a single volume control appears for MM (that issue also tracks the fact that the YouTube-related volume control is permanent) |

Fixed in build 3100 (5.1.1), all volume controls grouped to one, fix from 0021089. |
