NEW: Theater View on Mac
Hendrik:
Please open new threads about configuration questions :)
Lets keep this one about technical issues and feedback on how it runs in general.
roller:
In 41 the display in Theater View starts very slow, the menu has many display errors, the covers appear flickering on different places where words should be. In 39 it was OK.
And will we have the missing Playing Now Visualization in the future? Like in Windows I would like to take off the window with customizable Playing Now informations.

My Mac just came back from service yesterday and I found the new release of MC for Mac with Theater View!!! This is kind of like an early Christmas present. I got a working computer and a much anticipated new killer feature for MC on the same day. :) :)
It's very snappy and responsive on my "old" 2011 Macbook Pro running OSX 10.12 (Sierra). There are some unusual behaviors that make it confusing to use. I think what I'm seeing is NOT the intended behavior though. I'll document exactly what I've experienced soon. Probably tomorrow.
Now I have to raise a glass of beer to Hendrik. Here's to you Der Video Programmer Meister! Thanks. :)
Brian.

I was in the process of re-writing some of the rendering pipeline for more performance when 22.0.41 was made, so I'm not 100% sure which state of the code went into it exactly.
Testing with the very latest code (which definitely happened after .41) gives butter smooth and flawless rendering on my MacBook Pro (Retina, Late-2013), which isn't a very powerful machine anymore, so we'll see how it goes when it gets out.
A lot of changes can be expected in these first versions, as we explore the best solutions for performance and reliability - which made great advances this week, but not to say that I won't have to change it up again later.

I'm experiencing two unusual behaviors:
A. In Video > Movies, many of the selections don't show the name or cover for movies. For example NAME. I think Name is supposed to show me a list or maybe movie covers. But I don't see that. All I see is blank (with a background) on the left. On the right I see a summary page for whatever movie is selected. Pressing UP or DOWN cycles through movies. But I can't see what movie I'm selecting; the list is invisible. This is true in Wall, HD, and Recent also. The other selections show movie covers.
B. Theater View shows what section is active by making a highlighted rectangle around the selected section. For navigation, you see a white box around the navigation level you are at. Many times, it seems that when pressing the UP or LEFT arrow, I don't move up the navigation tree. I seem to get "stuck" below the Navigation area. Navigation never highlights. However, if I move the mouse up to the navigation area, it highlights and then I can use the arrow keys normally. So I think there's some kind of "mouse priority" that might be stealing focus or something. I'm not sure. I just know you can't use the arrows in some circumstances.
Thanks.
Brian.
