22.0.13 (7/27/2016)

2. Fixed: Playing internet streams with memory playback enabled could fail or even crash.
3. Changed: Updated German translation (thanks bytestar!).
4. Changed: Updated French translation (thanks p.v.).
5. Changed: Updated Slovak translation (thanks Peter Lukac).
6. Changed: In bda TV (i.e. ATSC and DVB) if the stream matching TV channel's video PID is categorized as "other", MC will try forcing it to "video" (experimental, for H.265/HEVC support).
7. Fixed: The Settings HTML page for Panel was not loading in Windows
8. Fixed: Importing a single folder could analyze the audio even if that wasn't selected.
9. Fixed: CableCARD tuners were not fully released upon stopping in build 12.

22.0.12 (7/21/2016)

1. Changed: Made the WAV and AIFF plugin support the memory playback added last build.
2. Fixed: Audio format was set incorrectly for TV channels using RAW AAC format.
3. Fixed: Right-clicking on live DVB TV would cause a crash.  This is related to the "Audio Programs" menu added in build 22.0.9.
4. Fixed: CD ripping was broken in build 22.0.11.

22.0.11 (7/20/2016)

1. Changed: Updated German translation (thanks bytestar!).

1. Changed: Updated Slovak translation (thanks Peter Lukac).
2. Changed: Hidden zones no longer show up in the link to menu.
3. Fixed: Google Image lookup wasn't working.

22.0.9 (7/14/2016)

1. NEW: Context menu "Audio Programs" to select a different audio program on the same DVB (this already exists for ATSC) TV channel.
2. Changed: The way that LinkedZones were reported by MCWS changed (unintentionally) recently so we switched it back.
3. Changed: Added the option "Lookup cover art for files that have no cover art at playback time" so that you can disable cover art lookup (and made it off by default).
4. NEW: Settings pages in Panel for Windows.
5. Fixed: MC could show channel-changing confirmation popup (under certain user configurations) erroneously when changing between ATSC channels.

22.0.8 (7/13/2016)

1. Changed: The "Link To Playlist" menu on Car Radio buttons is now nested and sorted.
2. Fixed: The launcher wasn't working and launching MC while the server was running wouldn't work.

22.0.7 (7/11/2016)

1. Fixed: Tooltips could show the previous tooltip for a split second when they first showed.
2. NEW: Right-click Car Radio buttons to link to an existing playlist.
3. NEW: Holding shift while setting the volume of a linked zone will set the volume for all the zones.
4. NEW: "Panel" which is a new web interface.  Take a look at http://localhost:52199 (or whatever port you have configured in 'Media Networking').

22.0.6 (7/7/2016)

1. Changed: Added some TV Log entries related to background EPG loading.

3. NEW: When exporting all the playlists, it now asks for a format (m3u or m3u8).
4. NEW: The function MCWS/v1/Library/Import has a new parameter "Block" to tell the function to wait until the import finishes to return.
5. Changed: Updated German translation (thanks bytestar!).
6. Fixed: When syncing to a handheld device, tracks with same name but a different disc number are now treated as distinct files.  Previously they were weeded out as duplicates.
7. NEW: Added a confirmation message to entering audio only mode to confirm that you really wanted to do that.
8. NEW: When playing a file that has no cover art, the cover art will be automatically downloaded from the internet.

22.0.5 (6/30/2016)

1. Changed: When the IPC stream is played for WDM driver playback, it won't create a Recent Playing Now entry.
2. Fixed: The WDM driver was still version 21.
3. Changed: Switched the "Show all values" cap for the Tag window from 50 values to 1000 values.
4. Changed: DVB channels marked as scrambled are no longer excluded because some channels that are free and non-DRM'ed do have this flag set.
5. Fixed: Equalizer DSP was showing values slightly different than what the user chose for decibel adjustment.

22.0.4 (6/28/2016)

1. Changed: Tooltips can be 80% of the screen height instead of 50%.
2. Changed: Updated German translation (thanks bytestar!).
3. Fixed: If cover art for a CD was modified by user prior to ripping, the ripped track could replace the cover art with something from YADB.
4. Fixed: The new tag window could crash when editing in certain scenarios.
5. Fixed: TV Channels' custom ordering was not retained during library and settings upgrade from version 21.
6. Changed: TV channels' custom ordering will be included as part of settings backup/restore.

1. Fixed: Check for Updates wasn't working.

22.0.2 (6/24/2016)

1. NEW: Single albums are detected and the album type field will show "Single album".
2. Fixed: ATSC over-the-air EPG scan was hard to cancel (took too long, or hang).
3. Fixed: A timer was running repeatedly for nothing when TV engine scans for channels or for OTA EPG programs.
4. NEW: Preliminary support of HD television channels that use H.265/HEVC video encoding.
5. Changed: Further work on SoX resampling to improve reliablity and delay handling.
6. Fixed: Link fields wouldn't work outside audio views.
7. Fixed: Libraries wouldn't migrate from MC21 (might require a fresh install for it to happen).

22.0.1 (6/23/2016)

1. NEW: Fields can be configured as "Linkable" so that they'll show the little link icon next to them.
2. NEW: You can analyze the audio when doing the import of a single folder.
3. Fixed: TV Logs message for a critical error was not properly formatted.
4. Fixed: MCWS/v1/Files/Current would crash at the root of Theater View.
5. Changed: MC will reset EPG loading timestamps on startup if it detects previous incomplete EPG loading due to crash or other failures.  This way previously failed loading will restart as soon as possible.
6. NEW: The SoX resampler can be enabled in Options > Audio to handle all your resampling needs.

Same bug that I posted here and multiple times.  Effectively on some tracks on a Windows 10 x86 install they do not seek time properly to any remote (Gizmo, EOS, JRemote).  An example track is Shudder Before the Beautiful by Nightwish on album Endless forms most beautiful.  Some tracks do work on the x86.  All tracks work on the Windows x64 install I have (different machine).

The last known version of jriver I have that worked properly is 21.0.30.  On 21.0.34 it seems that had broke and has continued into the latest releases.  Reverting back to 21.0.30 restores the functionality.

Is this being looked at or do you need logs/more information from me?

Thanks,

Hi, just want to seek for advise, I upgrading to version 22 and decided to reset all configurations to default and reconfigure again. Questions are I have 3 devices mainly PC is store my library, how can I synchronize to others 2 devices which are notebook and tablet. Of cause inclusive of both settings & all library audio files. I can't use backup & restore because all devices PC, notebook and tablet the library storing location are differences.

What I'm doing now is to sync the folders using 3rd party software and import the newly sync audio files from notebook and tablet, but all the settings that not or can't store in audio files will not be transferred (for example the fields that set for DSD ISO file) and I have to set again on both notebook and tablet after synced.

Is there any better way to do this?

MC freezes during TV Setup on entering Channel Scan. My Setup: Germany, DVB-C. I made several attempts with all cleanup and full reset options but to no avail. I observe this since MC 22.0.12 (1st release 22 I've installed)

Loading Program Guide doesn't work either (mc2xml v1.4): it ends up with the error message "The program guide file is not valid, or does not contain any program information for channels in your channel list."
This problem applies to MC 21.0.90 as well, so I guess mc2xml is broken for germany (once again).

There's another minor issue concerning 3D: when 3D is activated in Video options the playback is flickering when watching a 3D iso on a display which is not capable of 3D. This used to work, i.e. MC/madVR was able to detect the display and switch between 2D & 3D accordingly when introduced in MC21. I disabled the 3D option and all works fine.
Besides I'm wondering how this problem could occur in the 1st place, since I'm sure 3D was disabled in my config. On some morning I started watching the said 3D iso on a 2D display and all worked fine but in the evening when I resumed said movie the flickering started - weird - and it took me quite some time to figure it out.

Cheers

I use MC 22.0.12, and I have problem.
When I repping more than 200 albums to FLAC, MC22 does not accespt next disc as CD.
So restart MC22, accept one CD and another does not.

I need help.

I tried 22.0.23 and MC21 latest, has same result.
I need help still.

Please try 22.0.13.

Decided to upgrade today and to do a clean install (just to be sure). This also meant I had to import my library again (about 150000 songs in 2000 albums roughly). No problem it just takes 20-30 minutes normally, but mediacenter kept crashing on import and it then tells me I'm trying to do run a second import at the same time which is not true.
Decided to switch off auto import, restarted mediacenter and this solved the problem but it seems like a bug. Tried it on my second machine also, same problem, same solution.
The first machine has all the files local, the second one uses the first machine's mediadisk as a network share (I know I can use DLNA for this, but I'm also using my second machine to edit the tags etc and this way they don't keep each other awake).

Decided to upgrade today and to do a clean install (just to be sure). <snip>, but mediacenter kept crashing on import and it then tells me I'm trying to do run a second import at the same time which is not true.

On a clean install MC will automatically start an import process when you first run it, or it is run directly after installation. A countdown to start the import is shown in the Action window. Unless you stopped the countdown, Auto-Import started and was running in the background when you tried to run a manual import.
Either that or MC21 was still running in the background. You did turn off MC21 start with Windows, right?

The first machine has all the files local, the second one uses the first machine's mediadisk as a network share (I know I can use DLNA for this, but I'm also using my second machine to edit the tags etc and this way they don't keep each other awake).

This way there be dragons. But don't discuss it here. Start a new thread if you need to. In fact the issues have been discussed often. Search is your friend.
