24.0.75 (2/7/2019)
1. Fixed: Builds since 24.0.72 were using an incorrect private library that could have caused instability.
2. Fixed: MC would not run in OSX 10.8
3. Changed: DLNA: Add dsd, dff and dsf to the SOURCEPROTOCOLINFO and SINKPROTOCOLINFO
4. Fixed: Theater View right-click menus didn't look correct when tooltip transparency was turned off.
5. Fixed: Some malformed raw AAC audio files could not be played.
6. Fixed: The embedded web browser could show an error trying to open about:blank instead of showing a (temporary) blank page, when needed.
24.0.74 (1/17/2019)
1. NEW: Panel - Added support for saving playlists. When selecting 'Save Playlist' from the additional options menu, it will grab the list in Playing Now for the current zone and save it with the name the user provides.
2. NEW: Panel - Added an option to the settings page to set how the sub-folder count is indicated. Currently defaults to hidden.
3. Changed: Panel - Moved the shuffle and repeat buttons to the additional options menu on the Playing Now page.
4. Fixed: Fixed more cases of crashes with slightly malformed MP4 files.
5. NEW: Added the MCWS function Playlist/Build to take a set of file keys and a playlist path and builds the playlist.
6. Fixed: Media Center could crash when analyzing broken WMA files.
7. Fixed: DLNA: Our renderer when queried for the file URL and Metadata of a file playing in zone was providing data based on the first DLNA server conversion settings, not what was actually playing.
24.0.72 (1/7/2019)
1. Changed: Add more info to the database for Radio Paradise. BITDEPTH, COMPRESSION, etc.
2. Changed: Don't try to make thumbnails for streaming media files (cover art still works).
3. Fixed: Don't try to run auto-import locally if we are connecting to a library server.
4. Changed: Don't try to read length on streaming files in the current zone when sending DLNA event updates.
5. Fixed: Another case of MC crashing on analyzing/tagging certain mp4/m4a/mov files.
24.0.70 (12/14/2018)
1. Fixed: Some PLS streams would not play properly.
2. Changed: Updated Italian translation (thanks matteo e massimo).
3. Changed: Large change to threading priorities should result in smoother operation.
4. Changed: The MCWS function File/Delete takes an optional 'Mode' parameter to delete the file from disk or recycle the file.
5. Changed: Building missing thumbnails runs multipe threads at once instead of only running a single thread at a time (the number of threads depends on the setting for thumbnailing).
6. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).
7. Changed: Made Radio Paradise start faster.
24.0.68 (12/7/2018)
1. Changed: DLNA: explicitly supplies the library server (Panel) port with the presentation page URL for our DLNA renderers and servers.
2. Fixed: DLNA when authentication was enabled, the DeviceDescription.xml for Library Server couldn't be loaded on a remote MC. This means that if the server wasn't manually setup on the remote for authentication it might not show up in the server list.
3. Changed: Added support for reading/writing tag data in floating point format to Apple's Quicktime extensible format tag locations.
4. Fixed: "Rating" tag was not written to Apple's Quicktime Extensible tagging location.
5. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 4.41.
6. Fixed: Playback of some m4a/mp4 files was broken in recent builds.
7. Fixed: Media Center could erroneously restore itself from being minimized on ZoneSwitch or playback stop (ie. when using Theater View to launch an external application with the WDM audio driver).
8. Fixed: DLNA: Not all SSDP broadcasts were being sent from the SSDP server.
9. Fixed: Tags were not properly saved to Apple's extensible metadata tagging format.
10. Changed: The http server returns 404 instead of 501 when a resource can't be found.
11. Changed: Streamlined the code that finds network interfaces so that they are only used once upon start of the program instead of everytime a socket was created.
12. Fixed: Some mp4 or m4a audio with AAC encoding could not be played with JRiver mp4 plug-in.
13. NEW: Tag-writing for MP4/m4a audio files will use Apple's extensible tagging format if the files already contain such tags.
14. Fixed: Locking and unlocking split views didn't properly save the lock between restarts of the program.
16. Changed: DLNA: explicitly supply the library server (Panel) port with the presentation page URL for our DLNA renderers and servers.
16. Fixed: DLNA when authentication was enabled, the DeviceDescription.xml for Library Server couldn't be loaded on a remote MC. This means that if the server wasn't manually setup on the remote for authentication it might not show up in the server list.
17. NEW: Added the option to suppress the duplicate track warning in a playlist (Options > General > Advanced > Show duplicate file warnings for playlists).
18. Fixed: The seed parameter of the play doctor MCWS command would not load properly.
19. Changed: Made wait messages a little wider so they hold more text.
20. Fixed: Properly read the ALBUMARTIST tag from APEv2 tags in MPC files.
21. Changed: Made the MCWS call Library/List return the default library index.
22. Fixed: Playing certain WMA Lossless files could result in excessively slow buffering.
23. Changed: Updated FFmpeg to version 4.1, used for file analysis, transcoding and video playback.
24. Changed: Internal change to the way files are moved.
24.0.64 (11/19/2018)
1. Fixed: Playing Now cover art splitter bar.
2. NEW: Support for FLAC-in-Ogg files and streams.
3. Changed: Room Correction DSP allows setting a distance of up to 100 ft instead of 50 ft (or meters if you're metric).
4. Fixed: Made Rotten Tomatoes movie lookup work for a few more titles.
5. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 4.40.
6. Fixed: Removing a column from the sorting in a list with no sorting (or external sorting) would crash.
7. NEW: Radio Paradise toolbar channel buttons added.
8. Fixed: A occasional mismatch with Radio Parasdise metadata for the current playing track.
9. NEW: Added the MCC MCC_LIST_SEND_TO_PLAYING_NOW (26031) to add selected files to Playing Now using any of the modes available (play shuffled, add albums to end, etc.).
10. Fixed: The option to advance to the next track didn't work nicely when also picking stop after each item when it played the second to last track in the playlist.
11. Fixed: Playing Ogg Vorbis Internet Radio streams did not work.
12. NEW: Added the website MetaCritic to the online movie information lookup (http://www.metacritic.com).
13. Changed: Brought Rotten Tomatoes back to the online movie lookup.
14. Fixed: Theater View Background color did not work properly since 24.0.59.
15. Changed: The memory playback model "Load decoded file into memory" no longer engages when playing a URL.
16. Fixed: The option to "Advance to the next track when stopping after the current track" could loop to the second file in the playlist instead of the first after the last track.
17. NEW: There's a "Web Media" playlist that shows under the "Streaming" tree item and files from the Open URL dialog get added to it when added to the library.
18. Changed: German translation updated (thanks ByteStar).
19. Fixed: Open Weather Map configuration for Theater View was not working.
12. NEW: Pressing Ctrl+Q+Enter in a search box adds the files to Playing Now (Ctrl+Enter plays).
24.0.61 (11/2/2018)
1. Fixed: MC could deadlock when loading a large DLNA server library.
2. NEW: Non-standard file associations for various DSD mimetypes added so that we can see those files from DLNA server libraries that are using those mimetypes.
3. Changed: Some DLNA servers (like on the QNAP) don't properly provide the total number of files matches in a search which limited us to seeing the first 1000 files in a library.
4. Changed: All other multi-platform applicable changes from the windows build.
Dan R.:
Just installed this update after being prompted when I opened MediaCenter. Problems include unresponsive controls, for example, will not stop playing a track. The application locks up and you can't minimize the screen or do anything but quit. Playback settings were changed from my specified dac and had to be reset, but that didn't help anything. The files are not coming off the remote hard drive the way I had them specified to either.
I am running Yosemite 10.10 5
Thought you should know this is causing problems.

Did you try rebooting?

Thanks for the report.
I just tried this with Yosemite on a 2012 mac mini with a ssd.
With activity monitor running, playing back to the built-in audio I can't see what you are seeing. It uses less than 12% cpu.
Can you give more detail?
What DAC are you using?
Have you configured it as the output device in MC or as the default device in System Preferences?
Any DSP settings?
What type of material, bit depth, sample rate, etc.
Other audio apps running at the same time?
jlyness:
My MC24 (now up to .75) crashes immediately whenever I try to do anything other than look at, search, or play my files. For example, clicking on Tag in the Action window always results in an immediate app quit. Report log as attached. I had previously updated my Privacy/Accessibility settings as per the instructions here. Turns out that earlier versions of MC24, and even MC23, which used to run just fine now have the same bug. Using an iMac late 2012 running 10.14.3 (but was happening on earlier versions of 10.14 too). Any suggestions?
