Media Center 21.0.72 for Windows -- Available here
« on: April 14, 2016, 06:36:27 am »

This is the latest version of MC21.  Please post bugs here.  Please start a new thread for anything requiring discussion.  Non-bug posts will be deleted.

Download: http://files.jriver.com/mediacenter/channels/v21/latest/MediaCenter210072.exe

21.0.72 (4/13/2016)

1. Changed: The search suggestion box won't hide when the focus is in the search box (even if the mouse moves a lot or is a long ways away).
2. Changed: Made one more deletion in the cover art cleanup stage use the recycle bin instead of hard delete.

21.0.71 (4/12/2016)

1. Changed: Made the cover art cleanup function use the recycle bin instead of hard deleting the files.
2. Changed: Made the shortcut for clearing the rating Ctrl+Shift+Delete because Ctrl+Shift+0 gets eaten on newer copies of Windows.
3. NEW: A "Recording by time" option in Theater View to schedule television recording based on channel and time.
4. Fixed: If default recording option "Cleanup mode" was set at "keep at most N episodes", and a recording was scheduled as a non-subscription recording, the "keep at most N episodes" options was still applied by default, even though it made no sense for non-subscription recordings.  Now the option will switch to "Keep forever".
5. NEW: Added a "Playable" field that's a checkbox and when unchecked a file will no longer add to Playing Now.

21.0.70 (4/8/2016)

1. Fixed: When shuffle is set to automatic, it won't reshuffle at the end of the playlist unless it passes the automatic testing gate.
2. NEW: Ctrl+I now shows the playing file in Theater View as well.
3. NEW: Added support for .flac16 and .flac24 files.
4. Changed: Switched the limit for calculating all the volume leveling information from 10,000 tracks to 50,000 tracks.
5. Fixed: Copying from the Media Network activity log could be a little touch and go.

21.0.69 (4/5/2016)

1. NEW: Copying from the Media Network Activity log works (fills the clipboard with the item text).
2. NEW: Pressing Ctrl+I will jump the list to the playing song (if it's in the list).
3. Fixed: Fixed a little misspelling on the EPG window.
4. Changed: Switched a couple lowpass type entries to low-pass instead.
5. NEW: Remade the Thunderstorm skin so it's better on Mac and better on high DPI.
6. Changed: Dividers draw a little bigger on high DPI.
7. Changed: Tuned the layout of the "Customize Display" dialog to hopefully work better on some displays.
8. Changed: Updated Japanese translation (thanks Kazuo Tsuchiya).

21.0.68 (4/4/2016)

1. Fixed: On Television property page, if "Recording default - Cleanup mode" was set to "Keep forever", the setting would revert to "Keep at most set number of episodes".  This only applies in build 21.0.67.
2. Changed: On Television property page, the "Recording default - Days to keep" or "Recording default - Episodes to keep" is enabled only if relevant option is selected in "Recording default - Cleanup mode", to avoid confusion.
3. Fixed: The FixCase() expression function was slow in 21.0.67.
4. Changed: Updated French translation (thanks p.v.).
5. Fixed: The player setup dialog sizes a little better (especially on high DPI).

21.0.67 (4/1/2016)

1. Changed: Split the capitalization files out to CapitalizationAllCaps.txt and CapitalizationExclusion.txt in the Default Resources folder of the program.
2. Fixed: Doctor Who would show an xml error page following successful uploads of playlists/smartlists.
3. Fixed: Right-click playlist "upload to server" option wasn't functional.  Now uploads to Doctor Who.
4. Fixed: In recent builds Hauppauge HD PVR/Colossus series of devices could crash in some circumstances.
5. Changed: Most television recording defaults can be set on television properties page (instead of having to use the "Save settings as default" button on recording wizard).
6. Fixed: Playback could stall with a black screen after the movie ends on DVDs without a menu.
7. Fixed: Removing a rule from a Smartlist would sometimes leave the dialog in a funny state.

21.0.66 (3/25/2016)

1. Changed: Added more logging for CableCARD television tuners.
2. Fixed: Hidden tree items don't get reshown as a search result in Options.
3. Fixed: The minimum size of the Rename, Move, & Copy Files tool wasn't big enough on high DPI.
4. Changed: Updated the Slovak translation (thanks Peter Lukac).
5. Fixed: Shifting Text Subtitles up did not work properly in all cases.
6. Fixed: GroupCount(...) (and other file group based expressions) didn't work properly when outputting the playlist.

21.0.65 (3/23/2016)

1. Changed: Subtitles can be shifted down a bit further to the edge of the screen.
2. Fixed: Manually updating television guide data using EPG wizard failed in some cases.

5. NEW: 3D Blu-ray and MKV 3D support.
6. Fixed: Scheduler views didn't work nicely on high DPI.

21.0.64 (3/21/2016)

1. Fixed: DVD subtitles could show up in the wrong position with Red October HQ in recent builds.
2. Changed: Text Subtitles in Red October HQ are rendered at a higher resolution for improved quality.
3. Changed: Updated French translation (thanks p.v.).
4. Fixed: Pasting cover art from the clipboard didn't clear the image height and width fields like other setting of the cover art.
5. Changed: Updated Italian translation file (thanks Matteo).
6. Changed: Updated Japanese translation (thanks Kazuo Tsuchiya).
7. Fixed: Revert change from 21.0.54 that resulted in extra calls to get the volume of DLNA devices which could make the GUI sluggish with slow responding devices.

21.0.63 (3/20/2016)

1. Changed: Added some crash prevention measures in television engine involving CableCARD tuners.
2. Fixed: Cover art "Get From Internet" could crash since 21.0.61.

21.0.62 (3/18/2016)

1. Changed: Updated the default podcast feeds (thanks for the help!) (right-click Podcasts in the tree and pick Add Default Feeds).
2. Fixed: Doctor Who playlist post-processing was running too often and wasn't canceling properly so could cause a deadlock.
3. Fixed: No video on screen for Hauppauge HD PVR series of devices since build 56.

21.0.61 (3/18/2016)

1. Changed: Text Subtitles are rendered with proper Anti-Aliasing.

1. Fixed: Visualizations didn't update properly when switching tracks (only applies to the last few builds).

21.0.59 (3/17/2016)

1. Changed: The logic that takes the selected files for the Action Window will allow none to be selected if the entire set of files is one album (otherwise it'll still say no files selected).
2. Fixed: Occasional crashes in DSP Studio window when a menu is being shown while the close button is clicked.
3. Changed: The LFE low-pass in the Output Format DSP handles the settings for downmix and upmix separately (with separate defaults as well).
4. Changed: When switching channels while watching TV live, the existing tuner will not be used if the new channel prefers another device, or if the current device is preferred by other channels than the new channel.
5. Changed: When doing TV tuner device sorting, the tuners that are preferred by some channels will be put to the bottom of the list to avoid them being picked up by channels that do not have a preferred device.
6. Changed: Updated the Chromium Web Engine to the latest version.
7. Fixed: Amazon Prime video playback did not work when using the Chromium Engine.
8. NEW: In Theater View television guide, a vertical line is drawn to indicate current time.
9. Changed: Updated Japanese translation (thanks Kazuo Tsuchiya).

21.0.58 (3/14/2016)

1. Changed: Red October updated to LAV Filters 0.68.
2. Fixed: Standard view television EPG "Description", "Season", and "Episode" columns were mixed up since build 55.
3. Changed: Updated Japanese translation (thanks Kazuo Tsuchiya).
4. Changed: You can move the mouse a little more between button down and button up and still register a click (especially on high DPI).
5. Changed: When a channel-changing call into Hauppauge's IRbast API fails, we will recreate and retry.
6. Changed: Changed how television guide grid in Theater View is updated when the Record button on the remote control is pressed.  The grid will no longer shift and put the selected cell at the corner.
7. Fixed: Some WMV/ASF video files would not import successfully.

1. Fixed: Cover art "Get from Internet" could crash.

2. NEW: Support for Hauppauge's new HD PVR60 device.
3. Changed: In standard view, television EPG allows display of data for up to 21 days in the future (including current day) instead of only 17 days.
4. NEW: Support added for saving/restoring Media Center customized views to the JRiver "cloud" using the "Doctor Who" user login.  Use the "Also save to Doctor Who..." checkbox when saving a view.  There is a "Browse views on Doctor Who" option as well.

21.0.55 (3/9/2016)

1. NEW: Ctrl+Shift+Mouse Wheel will adjust the thumbnail size.
2. Fixed: The menu was too far right with the Thunderstorm skin.
3. Fixed: The maximize, minimize, and close buttons are placed better on the Thunderstorm skin.
4. NEW: Added a ListContains(...) expression function.
5. Changed: In standard television view the Season, episode columns, if displayed, are displayed before the Description column.
6. Fixed: Audio analysis could stall on some WAV files.
7. Changed: Removing cover art from items will reset the height and width fields.
8. Fixed: Playing a capture-only television channel on a client did not work.
9. Changed: The comment from a Podcast would still get added below a custom tooltip, but no longer does.
10. Fixed: The LFE low-pass when downmixing produced noise in some situations.

21.0.54 (3/1/2016)

1. Fixed: Ripped 3D Blu-ray movies were going to the wrong directory.
2. Changed: Updated Japanese translation (thanks Kazuo Tsuchiya).
3. NEW: Added version 3 UPnP controller support. (fixes Jongo Pure T2 rendering control)
4. NEW: When subscribing to television shows, one can specify video quality preference (HD vs. SD) so MC will pick correct channel among channels that air the same show at the same time.
5. Changed: When HD or SD preference is not specified, MC will favor Favorite channels when dealing with subscription TV recordings.  For channels with identical favorite status, the custom channel ordering is used to pick a channel.

21.0.53 (2/29/2016)

1. Fixed: Theater View background images were not working reliably on Intel GPUs since 21.0.51.
2. NEW: Output Format DSP can lowpass the LFE/Subwoofer when downmixing, or exclude it from the downmix entirely.
3. Changed: Backed out the Ctrl + mouse wheel thumbnail size adjustment from 21.0.50 since it prevents multi-selection and scrolling in a view.

I have to say I am disappointed in JRiver.  I have used this software for a number of years.  It is well known that humor and fun is a part of life and what helps makes it enjoyable.  Purposefully removing the humor and fun from software is a questionable practice.  I suggest that JRiver reconsider this change.

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!!

It looks much better now, especially the current playing highlight bars. Before I could not tell which track was playing as the highlight bar was so faint & dark; now it really stands out.

In Standard View>Audio>Files (or any similar view) right click on column header and add "playable" from the popup menu choices.

We should try making something else funny then.  ;D

Theater view shows a corrupted view on 4K screens.


I run media center on a TV running at 3840x2160 @ 60Hz.  What I've noticed is that if I set the program to run at desktop levels, or at that resolution exactly theater view corrupts immediately after the help information fades from the screen.  The corruption is that the screen becomes a red hue and stretched like it's trying to run in a 3D mode.  It also happens if I set it at 59, but does not occur if I set it to 30.   It will also happen if video is playing at that resolution @ 60Hz via MadVR, except it corrupts immediately after the video is stopped.

Video card is a GT 960, latest drivers, 3D is disabled, and I've also uninstalled the 3D software that comes with the drivers.  I also clean installed media center to verify it's not a setting I messed up.
