5/10/2023 0 Comments Songkong feature comparisonSongKong is much the same, the Lite version allows you to manually edit metadata, but with the full licence you unlock the ‘fix songs’ function where you can simply set the program off and it will fill in the blanks all by itself, useful in a large library and certainly not as time consuming as manually editing everything! There are several other really useful functions unlocked by the full version as well, like the ability to automatically rename filenames to match metadata and if coming from the Naim ecosystem (Unitiserve, Core or HDX) the ability to rewrite the metadata so it can be displayed. The full version also allows the use of Minimstreamer as well which allows you to transcode formats on the fly if needed. You also have the ability to create your own profile and custom tags, so if you really want to fine tune your library you can. With Minimserver these additional feature include user profiles (there are 4 available as standard which are classical, rock, jazz and default) which change the search parameters as you browse your library. Both are limited in terms of functionality as they stand, but you have the option to purchase a full licence for either program to unlock the full package of features. Minimserver 2 is the basic starter edition and SongKong is the Lite version. They both can be updated independently of the Melco software itself as they get updated with new versions reasonably frequently. They have been added as separate menu items within Settings>Music Database. This update has added simplified versions of Minimserver 2 and SongKong. This update is potentially the final software update for these machines in terms of functionality as the Melco platform moves forward with EX. Melco announced on the 13th of a May a new firmware release (3.92) for anyone with a mk1 or mk2 machine.
