This is the latest version of MC 13.0. An MC12.0 or MC13.0 license will work with it. Please post bugs here. Please start a new thread for anything requiring discussion. Non-bug posts will be deleted or moved.
If stability is more important than features, please download Media Center 12 from the
download page.
This latest build (usually safe) of MC13.0 is here:
ftp://ftp.jriver.com/pub/downloads/MC13/MediaCenter130054.exe13.0.54 (10/6/2008)
1. Changed: Soloists are stored in MP3 ID3v2 tags using a slash as a delimiter instead of a semi-colon.
2. Changed: ID3v2 tags will load cover art first from "front cover", then from "other", then from any other image type.
3. Changed: ID3v2 tags will save cover art to "front cover", remove "other" images, and leave all remaining image types.
4. Changed: When closing a tab, the view to the left of the closed tab will be shown instead of the view to the right of the tab.
5. Fixed: When picking "Exclude this folder" during auto-import configuration, you would still be forced to pick file types (which have no effect).
6. Changed: Improved how the import engine detects files locked by another process. (could get false positives on read-only network files before)
7. Fixed: The text in the 2D Visualization Studio was not readable.
8. Fixed: When a visualization was running on a system that couldn't maintain the desired frame rate, the program could fail to accept user input.

4. Changed: Auto-import will detect CUE database files that point to a missing CUE file.

10. Changed: When opening a view in a new tab, the new view is opened just to the right of the current tab instead of as the last tab.
11. Fixed: Removing or renaming a column in the Customize View dialog did not update the view.
12. Fixed: When going into a library view category, the new list could incorrectly keep the selection state from the previous list.
