3. NEW: Support for {\anX} alignment tags in SRT subtitles.

22.0.74 (2/14/2017)

1. NEW: "Get TV & Movie Info" tool allows downloading subtitles from the OpenSubtitles.org API based off the IMDB Id.

5. Fixed: ATSC over-the-air EPG scan could crash on program entries that do not have a title.

22.0.72 (2/8/2017)

1. Fixed: WAV plugin did not get audio duration correctly for some WAV files (with mp2 audio content).
2. Fixed: Spelling of the standard genre #68 was wrong.  It was 'Psychadelic' and now it's 'Psychedelic'.  This affects import and tag updating of mp3 and m4a files.
3. NEW: Theater View TV guide grid colors can be customized.

4. Fixed: The size of emailing images is remembered between sends.

22.0.68 (1/30/2017)

1. Changed: Over-the-air EPG scanning (ATSC and DVB) no longer saves "Event ID" into Program ID field.  Instead, Episode ID, if available, is saved in the field.

2. Fixed: The date/time "Midnight December 30, 1899" could not be set.

The NEW Tag window seems to have a variety of focus, scrolling and caching issues, random but frequent. Examples:

In a field, trying to scroll a long list of existing values, it seems necessary to use both mouse and scroll wheel to get proper control. It's also necessary to move use a mix of values navigation, value list scroller and tag window scroller. At times part of the list seems not aligned with the various display ports, being off-screen, or under something else, or moving to a new odd position. At times the list position on-screen jumps position as the list is scrolled. Just random nuttiness.

In a field, trying to navigate a long list of existing values, it is not possible to jump to a value by pressing a key (press B to jump to the first B...value) UNLESS first, a value is selected to give the list the focus required to recognize a jump keypress. But that typically means selecting an unwanted value (the first A... item, for instance), jumping to other desired values and selecting them, then de-selecting the original unwanted value.

The scrolling and focus challenges in a long list sometimes make it an ordeal to get to the Add field because it is at the very bottom.

When editing an existing field value (usually the caption field, in my case, working on my photos library), the value gets "stuck". It won't edit, but I can't leave the field either. If I go to another photo, the prior value still shows in the Caption field of the second photo. Sometimes this "stuck" value is really being imposed on the second photo, overwriting what it had. But more often the "stuck" value is really a "ghost", but covering up the actual current field and value so I can't edit it. Getting out of this state usually requires restarting MC. Something is broken...

The above oddities only happen in the NEW Tag Window. Reverting to the old Tag Window seems to restore normal behavior, though the NEW version has some very nice features (selecting and ordering fields to tag is super-nice).

Cant update LAV on this build for now - cant play any video \

Subtitles with language choice, but with English only metadata, it's so cute...

About 1-second into playing a track, JRiver will stop playing and display "Buffering..." on the second line of the track display in Standard view.  It will never automatically recover, but I can force a recover by double-clicking (or more) on the Stop button; after which JRiver will be unresponsive for about 10-seconds and then finally switch to the Stopped playing mode. Then I can click the Play button and JRiver will start playing the track and continue playing through the playlist as normal.  JRiver has never completely "crashed" in this situation, always manually recoverable.

This problem occurs rarely, maybe once or twice a week at any time of day.  I have read before that this is attributed to factors such as Antivirus software, limited network bandwidth and limited CPU; but I have tried 3 different antivirus packages, and when this problem occurs on Windows 10 (64-bit) the CPU, NAS and wired gigabit network are lightly loaded.  In fact, it's quite the opposite: JRiver is very robust and has never stopped playing or gone into "buffering" when the CPU and networked NAS are under heavy load.

JRiver is set to "Memory Playback" mode to play tracks from pre-loaded memory, and so it's interesting that this buffering freeze-up always happens after just 1 or 2 seconds of beginning to play a track.

It would be nice if JRiver could be fixed so that it would self-recover from the frozen-buffering situation.

Thank you!
