25.0.108 (10/1/2019)
1. Fixed: When exiting a popup window mouse movement was being ignored in the main window preventing the use of the splitter, resize, etc.
2. Fixed: Fix handling of video files (and probably others) that contain parenthesis in the filepath
2. Fixed: The maximum encode size wasn't being passed as an int64 so it could overflow on big files and cause encoding to fail.
4. Fixed: Doing "Paste All From Clipboard" on a list editor in the Tag window would not reliably save the data.
5. Fixed: Editing tags in a popup would not mark them as dirty so they would not be saved.
6. Fixed: SRT subtitles could appear multiple times in the menu.
7. Changed: Made the disc count algorithm count actual discs instead of take the max disc number.
8. Changed: Made the maximum allowable size of a Podcast larger because we found real world Podcasts larger than our previous cap size.
9. Fixed: Undid the "All channels" handling in the Parametric Equalizer volume and mute filters because it was causing all channels to be processed even if only selected ones were checked.
10. Fixed: We were not passing the array of files into the expression for thumbnails so things like GroupCount(...) were not working properly.
11. NEW: Added the ItemCount(...) expression to allow giving the count of all the files in the database with the same album, artist, album key, etc.
12. Changed: Made the DLNA servers dialog larger and made it sizable.
12. NEW: Made the program go through and update the 'Total Discs' for all the files in the library at startup (files not marked dirty, so shouldn't cause tagging).
25.0.102 (9/24/2019)
1. NEW: Calls to the web service from a webpage short-circuit the web browser and route directly inside Media Center. That way the calls work even with Media Network off.
2. Changed: Updated the Korean translation (thanks Junghwan).
3. Fixed: Editing a file path rule in the library customization dialog would not work.
4. Changed: Theater View will save when it's zoomed into a file so returning to Theater View will still be zoomed in.
5. NEW: Made the text on the status bar customizable for single file selections (right-click the toolbar and pick Set Text Rule...).
6. Fixed: The equalizer preamp was only working on the two front channels.
7. Changed: Saving an empty playlist as a Car Radio button would start playing the current playlist instead of messaging that there was nothing to play.
8. NEW: Added the PNPosition and PNCount variables to the expression used for status bar customization.
9. Changed: Reworked both the preamp and equalizer so they'll work on high channel counts (like 32 channels) instead of only on prescribed channels.
10. NEW: Made the MCC_PLAYBACK_ENGINE_SET_SUBTITLES MCC command take a -3 to browse for subtitles.
11. Fixed: Checkbox style fields were not working since the last update to fix tag window issues.
12. Changed: Updated German translation file (thanks Bytestar).
13. Changed: The check for updates box closes after 60 seconds instead of 5 seconds when there's no update.
14. Fixed: SACD playback was not working.
15. Changed: Play Doctor won't factor a file as a minus file if you double-click a new track. It will only factor as a minus if you hit the next track button.
25.0.101 (9/16/2019)
1. Fixed: Rebuild AMD64 as 25.0.101
25.0.100 (9/13/2019)

3. NEW: MC will import "Rating" field from the new style "ratings" tag in NFO files.
4. Changed: Updated the Chromium web engine to the latest Chrome release.

7. Changed: "Focal Length" and "F Number" from TIFF images will be displayed with one decimal place only.
8. Changed: "XResolution" and "YResolution" from TIFF images will carry a unit (dpi or ppcm).
9. Fixed: Playlists added to Gizmo views as a library item would not sort properly.
10. Fixed: Cloudplay PlayDoctor button was not working. This is the play button that would appear when you entered a genre into the Cloudplay search box.
11. Changed: When typing a part after a semi-colon in an edit box, a suggestion will appear for the second, third, etc. string.
12. NEW: An option "Jump amount when using mouse wheel to change playback position", to allow users to select how many seconds to jump when mouse wheel is turned (1 - 30 seconds).
13. Changed: When loading from an NFO file for a video, if <rating> or <ratings> tag is not found, <userrating> will be loaded for "Rating" field.
14. Changed: The check for updates Action Window only shows for five seconds if there's no update (so you don't have to close it).
15. Changed: Switched the API call used for Theater View sound playback to hopefully be more responsive.
16. Changed: Made mouse wheel scrolling in a menu always scroll at least one item even if the scroll reported by the system is small (previously it could be discarded).
17. NEW: An option to disable mouse wheel for jumping / skipping.
18. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).
19. Fixed: The Tag action window could keep applying tags incorrectly when editing a list field.
20. NEW: String literals can be defined in expressions by using /* comment here /*. The text will be output without any formatting.
21. Fixed: The Tempo & Pitch DSP could crash when fed more then 16 channel, instead it'll gracefully disable now until the limit can be raised.
22. Changed: Made the pane right-click menu show even when the view is locked (it will just disable most the items).
23. Fixed: Loudness could produce a subtle tick when starting playback again.
24. Fixed: Pressing Ctrl+A after opening the tag window would not select all in the file list.
25. NEW: The i386 build uses the chromium web engine instead of gtkwebkit now allowing Cloudplay user login.
26. Changed: DLNA the next track will be sent 30 seconds before the end of the current track to devices that support SetNextAVTransportURI. (increase of 6 seconds).
25.0.99 (9/4/2019)

2. Changed: Updated German translation file (thanks Stefan and Bytestar).
3. Changed: Updated Italian translation (thanks matteo e massimo).

10. Changed: Made the "Library Views" view header for a library view always show (instead of only when the tree is hidden).
11. Changed: Changed how video conversion fix (in previous build) is done so that it more closely preserves the original video without having to drop many video frames.
12. Changed: Panel - If accessing the Cloudplay page when playing to the browser, the user will be redirected to the home page with a message.
13. Changed: Panel - On the Cloudplay page, only one list can be expanded at a time. Expanding a new list will collapse the previous list.

17. Changed: Files of the type m4b are no longer renamed to mp4 for internal use.
18. Fixed: Compressed dff files (DTS) were returning the wrong block length which resulted in files that were too short in duration during transcoding.
19. NEW: Cloudplay accounts work on OSX.
25.0.92 (8/13/2019)
1. Fixed: The socket write timeout that was being set to the duration of a track from 25.0.86 has been removed (default is now 86400 secs) because it was causing issues with rending devices that had paused playback and that pulled the entire track in one request.
2. Changed: Typed navigation would scroll the list all the way to the left instead of just scrolling vertically.
3. Changed: Nested the Streaming Theater View items under "Radio" and "Stations".
4. NEW: Made the import from iTunes library import the playlists as well (to an iTunes playlist group).
5. Changed: Made the import from iTunes library get ratings.
6. Fixed: Playback/PlayRadioJRiver would return a failure code when playing a Radio JRiver station (instead of success).
7. Changed: Made the "Streaming" Theater View item no longer load files until hitting enter (to play, etc.).
8. NEW: Streaming in Theater View also shows JRiver Cloudplay playlists.
9. Fixed: Syncing with an empty filename rule would put the extension on the file twice.
10. Fixed: Saving an empty filename rule for a handheld would not save properly.
11. Fixed: Calls to Handheld/Sync before the handheld engine loaded devices would not work properly.
12. Changed: MC will load <plot> field from NFO sidecar files into "Description" field so users will not need to create a custom field "plot".
13. NEW: Added the command "Import From iTunes Database..." to the file menu to import from the XML file that iTunes can save the library as. It will import all the files and make a playlist with them.
14. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 4.82.
25.0.88 (8/5/2019)
1. Fixed: Column sizing would not be consistent on high DPI.

4. NEW: Added the ability to add "Streaming" to the root of Theater View with a display of Radio JRiver stations and Radio Paradise.

7. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).
8. Fixed: Cloudplay via PlayDoctor wasn't working right when no local library matches were found.
9. Changed: Added a 'Play' button next to the Cloudplay search box when a search term is present. This triggers playback of a Play Doctor playlist using the search term.
10. Fixed: ARM builds are consistently ARM7 now. This should result in a speed bump and fix an issue where a single library had been compiled to ARM8 causing segfaults on some platforms.
25.0.87 (8/1/2019)
1. Changed: Slovak translation updated (thanks Peter Lukac).
2. Fixed: Panel - Cover art was not loading when playing certain streams, like Radio Paradise.
3. Changed: The socket write timeout is set on a per-file served basis to the duration of the file + some padding.
4. Fixed: The getcwd function wasn't handling failure properly.

25.0.85 (7/29/2019)
1. NEW: Added Options > Tree & View > Advanced > Reset window position settings to reset the placement of windows.
2. Changed: Made the default height of options taller.
3. Changed: The socket write timeout to prevent hung sockets introduced in 25.0.81 (30 seconds) was too small for devices that have large buffers resulting in stopped playback in the middle of a track. Set it to 300 seconds.
4. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 4.81.
5. Changed: DLNA: If we are controlling a zone check it's state on 5 second intervals even if it's not the current zone (was 20 secs).
6. Changed: DLNA: For gapless playback using SetNextAVTransportURI send the next track near the end of the current playing track instead of near the beginning. This appears to help with some renderers that get confused with their track buffering code (Volumio)
7. NEW: DLNA: Add controller option to ignore other controllers (for misbehaving renderers).
8. Fixed: DLNA: Retrieve initial volume for a renderer (was always 0 before playback started).
9. NEW: You can select a maximum play bitrate for Cloud Play files from the menu (defaults to 1500).
10. Fixed: Customizing the columns of a parent view would reset the columns of a child view.

1. NEW: Added the option to stop after a delay for going to sleep. Look at Player > More Stop.
2. Fixed: Mixing 7.1 surround channel in 2.1 or 3.1 output mode could result in some channel being lost, instead of being downmixed properly.

25.0.81 (7/22/2019)
1. NEW: The MCWS function to play the JRiver radio will accept "Try Me", "Eclectic", "Classical", "Jazz", and "Rock" as station names and play those stations.
