Download: http://files.jriver.com/mediacenter/channels/v24/latest/MediaCenter240053.dmg

24.0.53 (9/19/2018)

1. Fixed: In a multi-monitor setup, if the main MC window was maximized on a secondary monitor MC wouldn't remember and after a restart would appear on the first (main) monitor.
2. Fixed: Menu submenu arrows were tiny on Retina displays, also fixed other menu spacing and format problems.
3. Fixed: The Options, DSP, and other dialogs on a Retina display would double in size when user tried to resize them.
4. Fixed: Save and restore of window placement wasn't taking retina scaling into account, so the program could come up in different sizes.
5. Fixed: Progress and status updates in the action window for thumbnail building and other long processes would stop updating after a period of time.  It would look like it didn't finish.
6. Fixed: The text font size picker (in Options / Tree & View) was wonky with Retina displays and the fonts would get smaller and smaller with each change.
7. Fixed: Splitter window sizes in the Media Center UI would change when switching between Retina and standard res displays.
8. NEW: Panel - Added an option to toggle ratings.
9. Changed: Panel - Added tabs to the settings page and groupings for similar options.
10. Changed: Panel - Thumbnail art is no longer cropped into squares.
11. Changed: Panel - Different icon for the streaming page button.
12. Fixed: Panel - Possible error on the Playing Now page if a file had no track information.
13. Fixed: Panel - A couple of issues with the alphabetic slider interface not working properly.
14. Fixed: Panel - Pressing the Playing Now page button was not scrolling the currently playing track to the top of the list on mobile devices.
15. Fixed: Panel - The file list was not loading correctly because it wasn't rendering properly.
16. Fixed: Radio Paradise could just play the opening listener supported clip over and over in some cases (at least until more tracks loaded).
17. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).
18. Fixed: The OpenGL variant of Theater View didn't support clicking the rating bar in Playing Now.
19. Fixed: Radio Paradise could report a problem starting playback (and not play).
20. NEW: Added the option General > Behavior > Remove files from Playing Now after they are played.
21. NEW: Added a DSD Bitstreaming option to select the maximum DSD sample rate to bitstream, and otherwise fallback to decoding.
22. Changed: Pix01 uses more secure building and uploading of galleries. You MUST have this build or newer to upload galleries to Pix01 now.
23. NEW: Pix01 has a password change function which it triggered by the "forgot password" button in the pix01 login information box. ALL passwords for pix01 have been reset and will need to be updated by the user.
24. Changed: Pix01 has higher resolution gallery uploads and the webpage displays larger thumbnail images.
25. NEW: DLNA: If we are playing to (controlling) a renderer and the track playback stops before the end (granularity of 5 seconds) we assume another controller has been used to stop the playback and as such we will not continue a playlist and assume we are no longer the active controller.
26. NEW: Links to individual playlists can be added to the toolbar.
27. Changed: Radio JRiver will skip any files in a "Radio JRiver Skips" playlist.

24.0.45 (7/31/2018)

1. Fixed: The previous build wouldn't run on MacOS 10.8
2. NEW: MCWS calls to GetInfo can specify "Calculated" for the fields to have the calculated fields included.
3. NEW: A button to exit the program can be added to the toolbar.
4. Changed: Updated the Korean translation (thanks Junghwan).
5. Fixed: The ratings on the OSD would not always stay in step when playing images.
6. Changed: Volume protection won't engage for 30 minutes since the end of a file as well (instead of just 30 minutes from the start of a file).
7. Fixed: APL files would report the wrong length for the last file on an album.
8. Changed: Slovak translation updated (thanks Peter Lukac).
9. NEW: Added Audio Path to the Theater View roller of Playing Now to display a prompt with all of the audio path information.
10. Fixed: Stopping image playback could crash.
11. Fixed: Subwoofer Low-pass from the Output Format DSP was not being applied properly in Pseudo Surround streams.
12. Changed: Added a 'Reset and Restore License' button to the registration info dialog on the Help menu.
13. Fixed: Adding an ellipsis to the end of a note name was not working properly.
14. Changed: Spacebar no longer fires Car Radio buttons, instead it will just toggle pause.
15. Changed: Tweaks to Radio Paradise playback of the listener supported clips (previously the playback range could be invalid).

24.0.42 (7/11/2018)

1. Fixed: The duration of APL files would show the duration of the entire file instead of the APL segment.
2. Fixed: Playing Shoutcast streams could make the program lock up.
3. Changed: When SACD ISO audio tracks are included in the files to be deleted, "Delete from disk" and "Recycle" options are not offered.
4. Changed: When SACD ISO audio tracks are to be removed from the library, only selected tracks will be removed, unselected tracks will remain in the library.  This is a reversal from a change made in build 21.
5. Fixed: Replacing dots with an ellipsis in Library Tools > Clean File Properties was not working.
6. Fixed: Running Library Tools > Clean File Properties with only the convert dots option selected would not work.
7. Changed: Media Center ensures the metadata block in a DSF file is valid before trying to overwrite it.
8. Changed: Improved APL importing so that it will look at the image file for some of the metadata and the APL file for some of the other metadata.
9. Changed: Panel - Moved the Radio Paradise button to the Web Streams section on the Streaming page.
10. Changed: Panel - Adjusted the file list column alignment for the ratings column.

24.0.39 (6/29/2018)

1. Changed: Added three MC commands to remote control setup 'Commands' list - subtitle, audio stream, and video stream selection.  Use the Add button to add to the existing customized list, or click 'Restore Default List' and they'll appear in the list.
2. Changed: Added more requirements for playlist upload to Cloud - files must have sample rates of 44100 or 48000 and must have embedded cover art.
3. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).
4. Changed: Work on Radio JRiver playback.

24.0.38 (6/26/2018)

1. Changed: Updated Italian translation (thanks matteo e massimo).
2. NEW: Panel - Added JRiver streaming stations to the Streaming page.
3. NEW: Panel - Added the audio quality option "uncompressed WAV."
4. NEW: Panel - More file information for music can be shown by clicking on the cover art image. This does not work on screens that are too small because of size limitations.
5. Changed: Panel - The Streaming page button is always visible regardless of the selected zone. Web stream buttons are only visible when the 'Player' zone is selected. The Radio Paradise button is visible except when the browser is selected as the zone.

24.0.37 (6/22/2018)

1. Fixed: Playback of Cloud based playlists not working in Panel.
2. Fixed: In some cases, converting an audio file would leave the file type set to the old file's type.
3. Fixed: Cloud upload emails contained bad links to uploaded playlists (server side fix).

24.0.36 (6/20/2018)

1. Fixed: OpenGL Theater View could use more CPU then expected since 24.0.34.
2. Fixed: Prevent duplicate uploaded playlist names per user.
3. Changed: Prevent uploading flac files with lossy compression.
4. Fixed: SRT subtitles with non-breaking spaces did not render properly.
5. Changed: DLNA, change SetNext controller option disabling so that device errors don't disable SetNext only disable it if the renderer reports that it's not implemented.
6. Changed: DLNA. Want to make sure that if a resubscribe fails we clear and do a subscribe. Have seen http error codes of 412 on resubscribe.
7. Changed: DLNA, Add a code that will do a manual transport state update if we look frozen at the end of a track (missed an event..)
8. Changed: Radio JRiver playlists will end after playing for two hours without any Media Center user interaction.
9. Fixed: Several bugs in the cloud playlist upload processing.
10. Changed: Prevent uploading flac files containing multiple tracks with CUE.

24.0.35 (6/15/2018)

1. Changed: "Watch" button is disabled on server for TV files currently being served to clients, in both standard TV view and Theater view.  It does not appear to be built into this build.  Maybe next build.
2. Changed: We no longer set the name field when playing an internet stream with names in it.
3. NEW: 3D Blu-rays show a custom icon in Theater View instead of just showing the Blu-ray icon.
4. Changed: Improved reliability of Blu-ray Menu playback by increasing the amount of data being buffered and dynamically scaling it with the movies frame rate.
5. Changed: Updated the Chromium Web Engine to the latest version.
6. Fixed: Memory leak when recording TV shows.
7. NEW: Added a DateInRange expression function that takes a date, a start date, and an end date and says whether the date is in the range.
8. Changed: Cloud upload now runs audio analysis on files that haven't been analyzed prior to uploading.
9. Changed: More complete error messaging and status during cloud upload process.  Limits enforced on number of files in playlist and total per user.

24.0.34 (6/8/2018)

1. Fixed: There was a build problem in 24.0.33

24.0.33 (6/8/2018)

1. NEW: Panel - Lots of improvements, see Windows history for complete list..
2. Fixed: Sidecar files were created erroneously for some audio files supporting internal tagging, even if the sidecar mode was "Save in sidecar if internal tagging is not supported".  This happened when audio option "write tool name and version" was off.
3. Fixed: Media Center could crash when reading slightly malformed WAV files with "Load full file (not decoded)" memory playback mode enabled.
4. Fixed: "Remove Tags" did not remove sidecar files for non-JPEG images.
5. Fixed: "Remove Tags" removed video sidecar files even if sidecar was turned off for videos.
6. Fixed: Lots of Radio Paradise improvements, see Windows history for complete list.
7. Changed: Updated SoundTouch library (used in the Tempo & Pitch DSP and VideoClock) to 2.0.
8. NEW: Support for playing Dolby Digital/Dolby Digital Plus in audio-only MP4 files.
9. Fixed: Playing Blu-ray Menus with tightly packed TrueHD frames could result in playback failure.
10. Changed: Opening a new Media Center tab now shows a blank page with instructions to select a desired item to view in the tab, rather than opening a web browser to the 'Start' page.
11. NEW: MC will open and parse Foobar sidecar files for SACD ISO files if JRiver sidecar files are not present.
12. Changed: Another update of the Modern Cards skins with work by Glynor (thanks!).
13. Fixed: MC popped up an error message each time a tag of an SACD ISO file is edited if sidecar support was not turned on.

24.0.31 (6/5/2018)

1. Changed: Switched the default skin to Modern Cards: Grey Edition.
2. Fixed: Libraries with path names beginning with spaces and using an Asian font could cause a crash.
3. Changed: Removed 'm4p' file type from supported types.

I'm still having issues resizing the "DSP Studio" window. Not really an issue, just annoying.
Also, thanks for all the effort put into this app and keeping it functioning great!

I don't see Smartlists in this view and my playlists didn't import, am I missing something?

Just noticed when switching between apps, the Play Mode Display isn't updating while playing, even when the next song is playing, the display doesn't reflect this.

When Retina View is enabled, and View > size is 100% or less, the font of one item on the main screen is too large to fit in its space - that's the text at the top of the window in the center: Song title, time, data rate. I think this text is intended to fit in the "well"; it does if the size is 110% or greater, and it does if Retina view is off.

Attached file Retina.jpg shows the problem. Retina view is on, size is 100%. Attached file Retina110.jpg shows the proper font; Retina view is on, size is 110%.

This is skin dependent.  Eight of the fifteen available skins don't show the defect: Black on Black, Modern Cards Dark/Grey/White editions, Noire, Pearl Bailey, Pono, Purity. 

Seven skins seem to show this defect: Aruba, Blue Steel, Green Eyes, Noire Glass, PixOS, Thunderstorm, Z.
