Should I support Android TV?

What do you think, should I support Android TV in the future? It is probably not much work and I can an Nvidia Shield from a friend for testing. Having MMM run on a TV might the best use of the boring 2D version. 

Please add a comment why you chose the poll option you did. Thank you!


I tested the concept using the 38" TV con...

As mentioned last week, I want to do this on a weekly basis. I had a bad cold (or a not too rough flu) and did certainly not accomplish everything I hoped for.

Status update 2018-03-05

It's already been way too long without an update. 1$ supporters deserve better I think. I'll try to turn this into a weekly thing, even for weeks when there isn't much to talk about.

What I recently did:

Isochronic tones

Since binaural beats can be difficult for people who have one better ear and also feel a bit bad...

Alpha 9.2 - even more bugfixes

Hello my valued patrons. In the last few releases more and more bugs made their way into MMM. Some of them were especially hard, crashes at the startup or the cardboard versions not being in cardboard VR. Well, as it seems Unity introduced those and I just didn't notice soon enough. 

So, I could successfully downgrade the project to an earli...

When do Beta supporter get a new alpha again?

Beta supporters didn't have a chance to get their hands on a new versions for a little while now. Due to a few problems in the last Alpha8 I did not release it to Beta supporters and since I released Alpha9 today I don't think it makes sense to give you a buggy and outdated Alpha8. But by the end of next week I'll give the Alpha9 to beta supporters...

Looking back at 2017

  

It's the last day of 2017 and I look at MMM, and how far it came. I guess it's normal for anyone creating something to look at what one has done so far and be disappointed. But I keep the negative thoughts to myself and will fight with those on my own. Today and want to look back and forget the nagging feeling that I could or should ...

Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays!

Thank you everyone for your great support!

I fear I won't be able to hit any stores in 2017, the content isn't quite finished and the Session Maker needs more work as well. 

Alpha supporters can expect another versio before the end of the year, though. And Beta supporters will get that early in January.

I hope everyone has a grea...

December is unto us! (Status update, sort of)

Bugfixed SessionMaker

About a week ago I got the report that SessionMaker has problems on Mac when trying to use MP3 files. I got around to update the SessionMaker now to version 0.5.1 which should handle MP3 files without problems again. I have updated the download links on the website and here they are again for convenience:

Hello again!

Time for you to get your hands on this at last. What's new? Well, not too much. The SessionMaker got an facelift and should be now more usable than the last version. While it has no new features you can see that there is enough room for a few more things to come. You'll see. :)

Also, MMM got another TechTest and I think it's a ...

Poll: Should I add a file browser in September?

Currently the primary (and only) way to add sessions to MMM is via wireless transfer using the SessionMaker. Should I add a file browser so that you can add a session file by browsing the system files? If so, should I do that in September for v0.4 Alpha in September or do you think I should take care of other features first? Please be aware that th...

Updated Trello board for next sprint

Just wanted to let you know that I just updated the Trello board for the next sprint. I wonder if I have explained what a sprint is. It's a term from "SCRUM", it's a development cycle which is a few weeks long and should result in a new software version.

If you have feedback or requests, just comment here or send me a message. :)
