1. Fixed: Audio in video files could cut out shortly before the end of the file, instead of playing to the end.

1. Fixed: Seeking a video while deinterlacing was active caused playback to break.

1. Fixed: Rename, Move, & Copy dialog wasn't working in "find and replace" mode for renaming files coming from a Windows sytem (e.g. replace "C:\Music\" with "/Music/")
2. Fixed: In the Rename, Move, & Copy dialog you couldn't expand the column widths enough to see the whole filename.
3. Fixed: Some popup tool windows save their position and size if the user has adjusted them, this was not happening on Mac.
4. Fixed: DSP Studio was blinking with VST effects installed (the fix is wider and might also make drawing in general more efficient).
5. Fixed: Logging could crash MC under some circumstances.

1. Fixed: Data files such as PDF's would not start up the default application when double clicked.

1. Fixed: Cmd-W (close window) would enter a 'w' character into edit boxes.
2. Fixed: Corrupt tiff images caused a crash when MC tried to import them.

There is still an issue when editing tags when files are not selected. 

21.0.30 (12/30/2015)
11. Changed: Made a change to the tagging window to prevent editing tags when no files are selected.

I came up with a reproducible test case:

In Pane View, select an artist. If there is only one album for that artist, and no individual tracks are selected, MC does not block editing tags.

If the files are all the same album, we pass them through and allow tagging.  That doesn't seem too crazy (hopefully!).

Hi Matt,

The issue is track specific information can easily get messed up. An example is Lyrics.  You can easily set all Lyrics for an album to the same value, wiping out existing data.

Handheld sync did not work with release 21.0.83.

The handheld device did not show up under "Drives & Devices".

It is fixed in this release.

Thanks...

Randy.

False duplicate when syncing handheld devices.

The issue I reported in 21.0.83 still exists.

The false duplicate is a result of Disc# not being considered in the algorithm to determine duplicates.

Here is the scenario which can be duplicated with a single album.

1) Album name is the same for all tracks.
2) There are multiple discs, each track is tagged with the disc number.
3) Each disc has multiple tracks. There are no duplicate track numbers within a disc.

The false duplicate comes up when: The track # and track name are the same and the disc # is different

In my opinion MC does not need to do any checking for duplicates, but if you do it should consider disc#.

21.0.90 appears to import all MKV files as "Data".  This has happened every now and then with previous builds.  In previous cases, changing the [Media Type] to Video fixed everything.

With this build, after changing to Video, the files mostly work, but they will not update their [Duration] field.  This was the clue to me that something wasn't right.  Running Update Library From Tags makes the files revert back to Data.  Duration remains at 0 seconds.

Reverting to 21.0.83, and running Update Library From Tags kept all newly imported MKVs as Video and updated their durations to the proper values.

Brian.

AVI files are also getting imported as DATA.

Small video files are not being imported now.  Sample that imports correctly in .83
