Summary0005087: Manual version check / check for upgrade
DescriptionUsers sometimes want to check for an upgrade manually and there's currently no way to do so.

This can be implemented via an existing string: "Check for updates (when connected)".

We should just show: 'Check for updates' (i.e. hide the bracketed text), just above Help > About.
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build1601

We should include this in 4.1, since we can create a new string as needed.

We should also consider automatic checking for Add-on updates. Currently it's possible only manually, which isn't enough e.g. in case a new language pack is created and we need to notify users, because old strings could have has serious problems.

Assigning to Rusty to suggest wording for both cases.

Priority set to 'urgent' based on OEM requests.

Note: on further discussion--no need for manual update checks via this portion of the UI (any such checks should be automatic and unless trivial, tracked via another bug).

Fixed in build 1601 (added the manual check as noted in the description).

Note that two new string were added:

1) in case when user doesn't have an internet connection:
'MediaMonkey couldn't check for the updates, there is a problem with your internet connection'

2) In case that no new version exists:
'MediaMonkey 4.0.6.1500 is the current version'

Re. 1) I would suggest splitting this into 2 strings:

a) 'MediaMonkey could not check for updates;'
b) 'There is a problem with your internet connection.'
