1. Changed: When loading tracks for album memory playback, a wait message will display if it takes more than one second.

3. Fixed: DLNA: Don't call GetMediaInfo if the controller options are set to Disable SetNext support.
4. Changed: Reduced default time for device calls from 10 seconds to 2 seconds, since the calls are sometimes on the main thread.

3. Changed: DLNA: Move the detection for the ability to do SetNext into the track playback start. Saves on device calls.
4. Fixed: DLNA: Add a GetTransportState for Playback state = PLAYING before GetPosition because on some slow devices GetPosition was returning values from the previous track which caused a track skip on those devices that support SetNext.
5. Changed: DLNA: Because of #4 above, change the track status update for SetNext support to 5 seconds.
6. NEW: MC will automatically search the Cover Art\TV Logos\ folder for channel logos if a channel does not already have a logo file saved in the Image File tag.

12. Fixed: Theater View could crash in recent builds if "Expression to Display" was used in a view.

23.0.66 (9/29/2017)

12. NEW: Added the option "Shuffle the list" when saving a Car Radio button to shuffle all the files that are saved as a playlist.

23.0.65 (9/27/2017)

1. Changed: Added the .dtshd extension for DTS audio files.
2. Changed: Red October HQ updated to madVR 0.92.4.
3. NEW: Added the MCWS function Playback/StopAll to stop all playback regardless of zone (includes remote and DLNA zones).
4. Fixed: Linking a Car Radio button to a playlist or smartlist would create 1000 buttons.
5. Fixed: Saving a Car Radio button to a playlist wouldn't delete the old playlist so duplicates could get created and the results would be undefined.
6. Changed: Made the CreateInterface function in the automation SDK return an intn instead of a long (so it works on x64).
7. NEW: Television has an option (in TV Options > Advanced section) to offer to delete a recorded TV show that is just watched.  You have to opt-in for this to take effect and the show must have been watched at least 85% for the feature to kick in.

23.0.64 (9/22/2017)

1. Changed: Tuned the paste logic so that when it adds delimiters to strings pasted in, it removes the final trailing delimiter if it's just empty after it.
2. Changed: JRMark scores say if they're coming from an x64 build of Media Center.
3. Changed: Panel - When selecting a file or group of files to begin playing in the browser, Panel will now jump to the playing page.
4. Changed: Panel - Avoids doing conversion with files that don't need to be converted for HTML5.
5. Fixed: Panel - The player was not working in the Safari browser.
6. Fixed: Panel - The player would stop working in some browsers shortly after playing began.

23.0.63 (9/22/2017)

1. Fixed: The DLNA controller option "Ignore GetPosition Failure" wasn't being read properly. The default of not enabled should NOW help with some DLNA renderer issues, skipping tracks, etc.
2. Fixed: Dolby Digital encoding in the Output Format DSP did not work in the 64-bit build.
3. Changed: Tuned the grouping logic of pane expressions a little more.  It wasn't always detecting the field properly.

In Panel, hitting the back arrow on the top left leads me to a web-page I browsed before. Is that intended?

The back button in Panel is going to do the same thing the browser back button will do.

Thanks. So it's intended. I wonder if it would make sense to restrict this functionality to the "Panel domain". So that you can only move back in Panel. Might be better from a UX point of view. In general, for moving back and forward in my browser, I use the browser buttons or the trackpad functionality so when using this arrow in Panel I expect it to stay in Panel.

Minor GUI blopper: resizing the browser window (horizontally) leads to a jump of the "jump forward" icon below the "jump backward" icon. Dragging the window more leads to jumping back of the icon to its correct state. This is on Safari / macOS.

While troubleshooting a different problem, I attempted to switch the web browser engine back to Internet Explorer from Chromium causing MC to hang.  After force quit and restart, MC is still set to use Chromium.  This is Windows 10 x64 with Creator's update, and IE is pretty much deprecated at this stage, but IE still launches on it's own without problem. Not sure if this problem is universal, specific to this version of Windows, or just my installation, but figured I'd report.

I don't believe the 64 bit version uses Chromium at all. At least it didn't a few revs back when I tried it.

If you look in the JRiver plugin directory for Chromium64, the directory is empty. What I found is the 64 bit version of JRiver always uses IE regardless of whether Chromium or IE is selected.

If Chromium has recently been added to the 64 bit version, I didn't see it in any of the recent release notes but maybe I missed it.

I am running x64 and I don't see a plugin for Chromium, but then again I don't see any mention for IE so not sure whether I should be seeing one.  If x64 doesn't support Chromium, it would be nice for the settings to automatically revert back to the default IE.

The Chromium plugin directory is in your user directory \AppData\Roaming\J River\Media Center 23\Plugins\Chromium64. Check there to see if the directory is empty.

I mentioned this issue in the 64 bit thread but didn't get a response. Would be nice if they addressed it since some websites don't work properly with IE so I went back to 32 bit.

If you still have 32 bit installed, you should see the 32 bit Chromium plugin in the Chromium directory I believe. Last I checked, I recall the 32 bit version is still using Chromium v56 which is a few years old. Current version is 61 I think.

I can confirm the chromium64 folder is empty.  I no longer have x32 installed, but the chromium plugin folder does contain those files.  I don't know if they are a remnant from x32, though. 

Also, even though I have Chromium (permanently) selected as the web engine, I still have working web functionality. Either MC is falling back to IE (in which case, the settings should also auto-fall back in the absence of the necessary components) or my MC x64 is using the x32 plugin of Chromium.

64 bit version is only using IE regardless of which setting you choose. From my experience, the only indication you will get that it's using IE is because some websites won't work correctly.

Chromium is not supported in 64-bit yet. Because this is a temporary situation for an in-development built, it'll not receive special handling beyond the fallback to IE it already has. It'll be supported eventually.
