Greetings:

These are observations with 1080P Blu rays mkvs.

Over the weekend, I have had a chance to test  various mkvs with the 23.0.70 build. I spent average of 10 minutes loading these movies and watched the videos and listened to the audio.

50 first Dates, Above the law, Absolute power. These three movies exhibited minor audio jumping at the initial start up, but played for over ten minutes without any noticeable audio glitch or video slowing down.

300, 300 Rise of an Empire. These movies do have intensive graphics and action packed. At initial startup, movies had audio jumping, and video was a bit sluggish. I almost gave up at the three minutes mark, then I noticed the video at one point was very smooth, then later it started to craw- a sort of pausing and continue. At one point the audio was very clear, almost perfect.

Belle, Pirate of the Caribbean Dead Men Tell no Tales, Wonder Woman.. Audio was jumpy, video would freeze a bit and continues to smooth out.Overall audio was clear as a whistle for some areas, then get jumpy again. It looks like video playback need something to push it to the next frame.

3 Days to kill. 3:10 to Yuma, 12 Years a Slave, Assassin Creed, Alien Convenant Audio get jerky, jumpy video freezes almost at the point where the movies start. With Alien Convenant, you could see the video splitting, it looks like  the head of Michael Fassbender was being separated from his neck.

DVD mkvs.

Janet Jackson Live in Hawaii, Velvet Rope Tours, Gloria Estephan Live in Atlantis, Live in Miami, Yanni Live in Acropolis- All Concerts played well, audio was clean as a whistle, no video breaking.

End of report.

Now MC 23.0.70, the installer reported  it is MC 23.0.65, but it did installed ok, I check Help- About it reported it  is 23.0.70.
On the description of this  build, Where is "setnext"?
In Prior versions of MC 32 bit, I used to find the setNext.. transport options, on AMD64, i can not locate it.
Also slider was mentioned, I did not see a slider in Audio- Buffering.

Thanks.

George when you are playing to a DLNA device, the ONLY settings in MC that make any difference are the ones in the DLNA server settings in MC.
The differences between the Generic, Sony and Samsung templates mostly come down to under what situation transcoding is being used.

The only other difference between windows and linux in this area is the code used to move the data over the network.
Windows uses the windows networking stack and linux uses cURL (a generic library for network data transfer).

If your device supports the formats you are sending it, it's always best to use "original format" for the Video configuration in MC's DLNA server.

I have a problem getting my blue tooth headset to work. Version 22 and 23.0.65 running at the same machine (SUSE Leap42.3) but bt-headset is only working with version 22. The device setup between both versions is identical.
Version 22 switches over to headset playback after synchronization and back to speaker, after the headset is turned of, version 23 only uses the speaker. Restarting playback etc. does not solve the problem.

Same issue with 23.0.70. 22.0.108 is working fine

Note: 1909959 -> ver 22; 191020 -> ver 23.

Since that code hasn't changed between 22 and 23 there still is likely something different between in the settings between your MC22 and MC23.
I'd check the format setting under Tools->Options->Audio->Device Settings
and also the DSP studio settings.

This happens every time the autocomplete window pops up. Also new to 23.0.70 the field labels have moved to the right side of the pane leaving space on the left. See screenshot. None of these behaviors in the Windows version. I am using Ubuntu 17.0.4

You can resize the tag window to eliminate the blank space. It does appear the auto field width is somewhat off.
Can't duplicate the autocomplete behavior in Debian XFCE. I suspect your window manager is setup with some focus stealing tweaks or some such. You'll need to do some investigation on that.

Resizing the tag window pushes the data off the right (see attached). BTW this is new behavior as of 23.0.70. Not sure what tweaks I neeed to do to fix the autocomplete focus issue. FWIW this is a virgin install of Ubuntu 17.0.4 so it would affect anyone installing that flavor. BTW thanks for the help and gudeance this is a great forum!
