1. NEW: DLNA can expose zones as DLNA Renderers so that remote controls and other DLNA devices can control Media Center. (Options > DLNA > Renderer) (still under development)
2. Optimized: DLNA device discovery is better threaded and performs fewer network hits per found device.
3. Changed: When playing with Tremote or DLNA control, the position slider will move more smoothly.

2. Optimized: MC can better deal with occasional corrupt time-stamp data during playback of television time-shifting/recording files.

This sounds excellent!
Tolga:
Undo does not work stacking. Maybe this is a feature request, not a bug, but it is natural feature to expect.
Unfortunately, I learned the missing feature the hard way, when I selected the whole library, selected "Stack" instead of "Expand Stacks", and puff
I lost all stacks at once. (fortunately it wasn't more than a couple of hours work and not months of work).
I also wonder where the stacks are stored. Are they lost if the library is lost? I would prefer them to be stored in the tags.

This version works great with my PS3. I have a new installation of Windows 7 and spent hours trying to figure out why I was getting a DLNA error 7255 with version .126. As soon as I installed this version, magic!
