Help:
If you need any other detailed information on how PMM is working or what else can be done
with it you can access the PMM help. Different topics are listed by default and also a search
option is implemented.
Direct selection in lists:
If you have long lists with media content you now have the possibility to jump directly to the
wanted character. Fore example press in Music "d" on your keyboard, the cursor will jump to
the first song beginning with "d". This also works if you want to add a watch folder. In the
Explorer window for the watch folders press "h" for example and cursor jumps to first folder
beginning with "h".
WAV & VOB File support:
This PMM version also supports file extensions *.wav and *.vob.
Multiple folder/ file selection:
Select more folders with help of the "ctrl" or "shift" key like in the Windows Explorer. Keep
pressing "ctrl" and click in the watch folders selection window all folders you want to add.
The "shift" key is used to mark multiple files after each other. For example click the first file
beginning with "a", press the shift key and hold it, now click the last file beginning with "a".
All files beginning with "a" are now marked and will be added.
Improvement of Content deletion:
If you delete a watch folder, PMM also asks you now if the media content of this watch folder
should be removed from the right pane of the PMM window. If you click "yes" the list will be
erased (not deleted from hard disk drive, except when you selected this option), files will then
also be removed from playlists, picture albums and movie collections.
Shut down PMM, new option:
When you shut down PMM via the system tray icon you have the option to disable the
window that you will be prompted again. This option also can be enabled/ disabled via the
Settings/ Server menu: "Always shutdown in future without asking"
Import folders into playlists/ picture albums/ movie collections:
If you add a folder and want to add directly this content to a playlist/ picture album or movie
collection, checking a box in the "Add Files or Folders" menu can do this
Internal Picture Viewer:
PMM offers you an internal picture viewer; with this tool you can watch the pictures of your
media library. One double-click on a picture opens the file in the internal picture viewer,
another double-click closes the picture and returns back to thumbnail or list view, depending
where you have been before.
Parental containers for watch folders/ playlists/ picture albums and movie collections:
In the left pane you have parental containers for all watch folders in one container called
"Watch Folders", all playlists in a container called "Playlists", all picture albums in a
container called "Albums", and all movie collections in a folder called "Collections"
Nested Playlists/ Picture albums/ Movie collections:
You don't only have the possibility to create Playlists/ Picture albums/ Movie collections in
the root directory of the single containers; you can also manage your composition in folders
and subfolders. If you have created a Folder, just right click on it and create a new Playlists/
Picture album/ Movie collection inside of it.
