SongKong 6.0 Fumes - released 29th March 2019

We have a new version of SongKong, and this now includes Profiles, allowing you to save multiple configurations, full details - http://blog.jthink.net/2019/03/songkong-60-fumes-now-with-profiles.html

There was an issue with the routine if upgrading from previous version of SongKong to SongKong 6.0 which could prevent SongKong starting in some instances. This has now been fixed, if you have hit this problem please redownload SongKong again (possibly clearing cache or using different browser) and retry.

Hi Paul,

Thank you indeed for the “profile” feature I was eagerly awaiting!

Some of you have been getting a corrupt database error recently, it has taken a while to get to the bottom of this as I couldn’t reproduce the error. Turns out it is occurring because SongKong used to use an additional database table and this may still exist in your system and prevent some database rows from being deleted, critically running File:Empty Database does not remove this old table

Until we have a fix in SongKong itself the one off solution is as follows:

MacOS:

  • Close SongKong
  • From Finder hold down Option Button and select Go menu
  • Select Library from the list
  • Go to Preferences : SongKong folder
  • Delete Database folder
  • Start SongKong

Windows:

  • Close SongKong
  • Go to C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\SongKong
  • Delete Database folder
  • Start SongKong

Linux:

  • Close SongKong
  • cd $HOME/.songkong
  • rm -fr Database
  • Start SongKong
