Also in the beta and latest repos.

23.0.84 (11/21/2017)

1. Fixed: A bug that would cause a crash when hitting a media key when in an edit box.
2. NEW: Implement more media keys (useful for IR remote default tables).
3. NEW: Implement the Green Button on IR media remotes.

23.0.81 (11/10/2017)

1. Fixed: Decoding of high complexity video streams (4k, etc) did not work properly in recent builds.
2. NEW: Medium and Large cover art resources provided by MC's DLNA servers.

23.0.80 (10/31/2017)

1. Fixed: The network reader was hanging on some socket closes causing MC to eventually stop responding to network data. Bug introduced in 23.0.65.

23.0.78 (10/24/2017)

1. Changed: Updated FFmpeg to version 3.4, used for file analysis, transcoding and video playback.
2. Fixed: 24-bit WMA files did not play properly.

23.0.72 (10/13/2017)

1. Fixed: Change windowing code to better determine when override_direct should be used. Affects window and menu drawing.
2. Changed: Changes from the main branch.

Lots of DLNA changes. Could use some feedback on these...

23.0.70 (10/6/2017)

1. Fixed: DLNA: Don't call GetMediaInfo if the controller options are set to Disable SetNext support.
2. Fixed: DLNA: Fix status calls for GetPosition which were not entirely correct in the previous build.
3. DLNA: Fixed: Options that aren't active depending on the current settings are grayed out.
5. DLNA: NEW: You can select the audio formats that are converted when "specified output format only when necessary" is selected. (under Add or configure DLNA servers .. [Server name]->Audio->Advanced)
6. Changed: DLNA: Move the detection for the ability to do SetNext into the track playback start. Saves on device calls.
7. 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.
8. Changed: DLNA: Because of #4 above, change the track status update for SetNext support to 5 seconds.
9. Changed: DLNA: when ignoring position failure, add a settling delay for the play command after sending the URI to the renderer. Helps with some slow renderers.
10. Changed: DLNA: changes to make the slider work when getposition is slow or fails.
11. Fixed: DLNA: get the fileinfo to update onscreen instantly when transitioning tracks.
12. Fixed: DLNA: change to the DLNA image slideshow push to renderer to work with MC as a renderer.
13. Changed: DLNA renderer. Ignore Stop commands while playing back images. Enables a smooth slideshow. WIP.

23.0.65 (9/29/2017)

1. Fixed: Longstanding bug in the networking code that could cause segfaults upon DLNA and MC devices going up and down on the local network.

23.0.61 (9/19/2017)

1. Fixed: The situation where a detached monitor will prevent detection of desktop size (stops popup windows from being created).

23.0.54 (9/14/2017)

1. Fixed: Removed the libunistring0 requirement.

23.0.52-2 (9/12/2017)

1. Fixed: The fix to edit boxes from 23.0.52 prevented Theater View from working.

23.0.52 (9/8/2017)

1. Fixed: Remove wait messages on message boxes. Because of the way timers work in MC linux, they were not getting displayed until the timeout.
2. Fixed: Change some edit boxes to remove the hard coded unmanaged window attribute which was making them show up across virtual desktops.
3. Changed: Internal window code changes to increase performance.
4. NEW: Implemented video window detaching.

23.0.51 (9/7/2017)

1. NEW: Enabled the use of VST Plugins.

23.0.41 (8/28/2017)

1. NEW: Implement non-US keyboard support.

1. Changed: Relaxed package requirements to ignore the minor revision of a package.
2. Fixed: Removed libicu requirement.

23.0.31 (8/7/2017)

1. Fixed: Internal structures dealing with UI functions.

23.0.28 (7/31/2017)

1. Fixed: Some memory leaks in the registration code changes from 23.0.25. Will require re-entry of the license again.

23.0.25 (7/27/2017)

1. Fixed: Linux registration issues. Will need to re-enter the registration code.
2. Changed: Tweaking thread priorities from 23.0.21.
3. NEW: Theater View 3D rendering is anti-aliased for smoother edges. (not for arm)

23.0.21 (7/17/2017)

1. NEW: Implemented thread priorities. When running as a normal user requires system configuration to work. Falls back to non-prioritized threads if the system is not configured to allow prioritization.
2. FIXED: Memory leak in Linux thread parallelizer.

Greetings:
Let me THANK the JR TEAM for the work well done.
I must report this . With this build, the audio jumping issue has almost been eliminated.
The mkvs start ok, with no audible audio issues, but the audio jumping, video freezing issues come up either when the scenes are very fast or when there are lots of images on the screen. I tested more than 20 mkvs on the average of 10-15 minutes of play.
I also watched some movies full length. In some instances, the movies will just quit with message "can not play video"
In the case of concert 1080P blu rays, the jumping of audio , and freezing of video continues, only in 1080P non concert related movies that seem to have most issues fixed. (I must note here that some mkvs completed with no issues.
Dark Tower o.k with minor audio jumping, video sluggish.
War Room crashed twice, then third time with video freezing and pulsating.
The above notations also affected 64 bit MC 23.0.84 (for Windows), but worse with AMD64.

I have stored since 2016, a Sony HDR 4k clip duration 3.07 minutes, and a Panasonic 4k 2.07 clip.
The Panasonic clip will play nice over dLNA without issues or buffering, the Sony clip will play and buffer every 10-15 seconds. This was my experience testing them on MC 32/64 bit Windows version.
With the AMD64, the playback of these sample clip exhibited same issues just like the Windows platform.
Now with MC 23.0.84, The error message is "can not play video".
I just want to report these samples uhd not playing well with the current version.

Thanks.

George

Bob, can you expand on which media keys were added (besides the green button)?  Good stuff in any case!

AudioForward, AudioRewind and Cancel.
Those are the default values for most IR remotes that we will accept as next, previous and stop.

Sweet, I'll be testing soon.  Any luck getting "Stop" working with xfce on stretch?
