As of MediaMonkey for Windows 4.1 it’s possible to enable DLNA/MediaMonkey for Android Wi-fi Synchronization as a Windows Service under Tools > Options > Media Sharing from the Main Menu by using Install Service, so that other devices can access the library even when MediaMonkey for Windows itself isn’t running.
- Make sure you enter the same Windows User credentials as you’re running MediaMonkey for Windows as, so that the MediaMonkey Service uses the same MediaMonkey for Windows settings, including Media Sharing and database as MediaMonkey for Windows itself.
- MediaMonkey Service is not available for Portable Installs. You’ll need a regular install of MediaMonkey for Windows to be able to use the MediaMonkey Service.
In cases where multiple users share a PC, it’s advisable to give all equal rights to access the MediaMonkey database. To do so:
- Move MediaMonkey database file to a neutral location (rather than a secured user folder). e.g. “C:\MediaMonkey\“.
- Change the location MediaMonkey reads the database from: Modifying the MediaMonkey database and settings files / changing the default database location
MediaMonkey 5+ can work with MediaMonkey Server which is currently in development: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=31
