1. Changed: When adding a library field, the name will be fully selected so typing anything will replace it (instead of requiring manual delete).
2. Fixed: Twitter integration wasn't working.
3. Changed: German translation updated (thanks ByteStar).
4. Fixed: Scanning from WIA sources would not reliably get the image if "Skip file if already in library" was checked (applies to BMP files).
5. Changed: Reduced the minimum width of the options window.
6. NEW: Added the MCWS function Playlist/RemoveFile.
7. Changed: Updated Italian translation (thanks matteo e massimo).
8. Changed: Made the MCWS articles function take a parameter SortIgnoreState to specify if they should be ignored for sorting.
9. Changed: Added locking to prevent a possible crash on playback start.
10. Changed: Made the minimum size of the options pages half the height of the ideal size (instead of the full ideal size).
11. Changed: Tuned the height of the remote control options page a little so it displays fully on high DPI.
12. Fixed: A possible crash from the recent change after removing a zone to show the now current zone.
13. NEW: Made it possible to pick a Radio JRiver station as a Car Radio button.
14. NEW: Panel - Bookmarks for videos, audiobooks, and podcasts will be honored.
15. NEW: Panel - Bookmarks can be set for videos, audiobooks, and podcasts by using the stop button.
16. NEW: Panel - The bookmark for the current file can be cleared by using stop while the time is at 0:00.
17. Fixed: Some Radio Paradise streams did not work when "Disable audio buffer to disk (for low powered systems)" option was used.
18. Fixed (hopefully): MC could crash playing Radio JRiver.
19. Changed: Extreme outliers from silence will not be calculated against for volume leveling values.
20. Fixed: The Cloudplay view would not save between runs.
21. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 4.73.
22. NEW: Added a File/Bookmark function to MCWS to get and set the bookmark.
23. NEW: Implemented cache control and range requests (for the Buffered Internet Reader).
24. Changed: Marked the expressions used in Find & Replace to not be escaped (that way slash doesn't need special treatment).
25. NEW: Added RadioParadise as an avaialble Theater View page (each page shows a list of tracks for the station).
26. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).
27. Fixed: When getting the filename field in an expression, the filename slash character won't be replaced by underscores (only slashes in other fields).
28. Changed: Allow URL's with DEFINED CONTENT LENGTHS to be converted to other formats in DLNA. You may select url as a type to convert in the DLNA server Audio advanced options when SPECIFIED FORMAT WHEN NECESSARY is selected.
29. NEW: Let Radio Paradise look one track ahead on playback so it can push the next track to a DLNA renderer that supports SetNextAVTransportURI for gapless support. Since RP is range based like a cue file this REQUIRES the associated DLNA server to be set to SPECIFIED FORMAT or SPECIFIED FORMAT WHEN NECESSARY.
30. NEW: You can perform a case-sensitive search by adding ~case to the search string.
31. Fixed: MC would crash on playing video on a client, if either of the Media Network options - "Disable audio buffer to disk (for low powered systems)" or "Disable video buffer to disk (for low powered systems)", was used.

33. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 4.72.
34. Changed: Slovak translation updated (thanks Peter Lukac).
35. Fixed: Captions were not working with 2D image playback.
36. Changed: When breaking lines for lyrics, the lines will reverse find a space instead of forward find a space. Prevents lines from truncating.
37. Changed: During lyrics lookup, AZLyrics is used third instead of second (so will rarely be accessed).
38. Changed: Made lyrics drawing use a little longer lines since it now reverse finds the line breaks.
39. Fixed: Playing Radio JRiver streams would download the MPL instead of play them (for some of the streams).
40. NEW: Page up and page down will increment files when pressed in the Tag Action Window.
41. NEW: Added "Disabled" as one of the choices for read-only authentication.
42. Changed: When editing in the Tag window, clicking another file or switching with page up and page down will keep editing the same field instead of cancelling.
43. Changed: Eating a few more junk responses from Google lyrics lookup.
44. Changed: When drawing lyrics, the lines are trimmed after splitting into lines to remove empty values (which could wrap).
45. Fixed: After uploading a playlist to Cloudplay, the remote files were showing up in main database alongside the local files.
46. Fixed: Adding cover art from a file would leave the folder locked.
47. Changed: When clicking a large edit field in the Tag window, it will ensure that the "Edit in Popup" button is also visible.

9. Changed: Turned off the threaded update for CD lists to see if it helps with the CD ripping problems (please report).
10. Fixed: Radio Paradise did not play.

27. Changed: Internet playback, If we have a stream and extension assume we don't need to parse the "file". Reduces file requests.

9. Fixed: The current track would not be shown when first loading a Playing Now view.

25. NEW: Added the option Options > General > Advanced > Save pane selection between runs. It defaults to off, but allows turning it on.
26. Fixed: Pressing Delete during image playback would not trigger a delete of the file (unless the list was in focus).
