26.0.19 (1/20/20)

1. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 5.14.
2. Fixed: DVB Tuner's tuner event handler was executed repeatedly and could cause MC to crash.
3. NEW: Added the relational type of one per composer to library fields.
4. Changed: ATSC and DVB tuners will be a little more responsive to canceling/stopping.
5. Fixed: Playback Status would not advance when playing a file after loading a different library.
6. Changed: iTunes library import supports unlimited levels of iTunes playlist nesting instead of only one level.
7. Changed: Slovak translation updated (thanks Peter Lukac).
8. Fixed: The date field in some images was incorrectly set to "0" on import.
9. Changed: Customized the waveform colors for the Black on Black, Thunderstorm, Z, Aruba, Green Eyes, Purity, Pearl Bailey, Modern Cards Dark, Modern Cards White and Blue Steel skins to better match.
10. Changed: Made the waveform bar a little smoother on wide screens.
11. Fixed: Some corrupt mp4 files could lead to hanging of MC (MC went into an infinite loop).

26.0.18 (1/14/2020)

1. Changed: Internal changes.

26.0.17 (1/13/2020)

1. NEW: During iTunes library import, the full path of a playlist will be imported instead of only the name.
2. Fixed: Updating the file playback range could lead to a crash in some cases.
3. Fixed: Decoding of ALAC in M4A could result in artifacts in some files.
4. Changed: In Standard view EPG list will delay updating when EPG loading is running in the background.
5. Changed: Switched the no files double-click message from play all files to play audio files in Playing Now (so things like notes don't get played).
6. Changed: Updated FFmpeg to 4.2, used for file analysis and transcoding.
7. Fixed: The MCWS JSON file list would return an empty file entry instead of an entirely empty list if no files were found.
8. Changed: Added a parameter to the MCWS Browse/Image call to avoid delivering the default placeholder images, allowing a client to gracefully substitute its own.
9. Changed: Updated our User Agent again to resolve issues with Podcast downloads.
10. Changed: Updated the Norwegian translation (thanks Øistein Rian).
11. Changed: Updated Italian translation (thanks matteo e massimo).

26.0.16 (1/9/2020)

1. Changed: Updated Italian translation (thanks matteo e massimo).
2. Changed: JRiver TV recording file type "jtv" will be among default file types for importing and for file association.
3. Fixed: Setting the tempo with MCWS didn't always take effect right away.
4. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 5.12.
5. Changed: In Standard view, TV recording button is made available even if the EPG is completely empty, so that one can still record a show by specifying channel and time, without program info.
6. Changed: Revised the image date code to hopefully load the date more reliably from images.
7. Changed: When MCC_HANDHELD_UPLOAD arrives, it will first recheck the sync (otherwise it would just sync nothing after changes).
8. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).
9. NEW: You can select the country of Italy from the Amazon store menu at the top right.
10. Fixed: Television code could crash in rare cases.

26.0.15 (12/18/2019)

1. Changed: Updated German translation file (thanks Bytestar).
2. Changed: The menu placement of the main program scales with the size of the program so at a larger size it gets shifted (should fix Blue Steel problems).
3. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 5.11.
4. Changed: Changed how critical errors from TV tuners are handled so we will not mess up reference counting of the tuners.
5. Changed: We reset a TV tuner from error state to normal state in 3 minutes, instead of 30 minutes, so the tuner can be used again sooner if it is usable.
6. Changed: Updated French translation (thanks Stéphane).
7. Fixed: Picking thumbnails and hitting the play button to play them would not always work properly after a recent change.
8. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).

26.0.14 (12/16/2019)

1. Fixed: Media Center could not ask for permission when running tasks which needed administrator rights (installing plugins, registering controls, etc).
2. Fixed: Stability issues in 26.0.13 due to internal changes.
3. Changed: Updated Italian translation (thanks matteo e massimo).
4. Changed: Updated the Hungarian translation (thanks pimpolo).

26.0.13 (12/13/2019)

1. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).

3. Changed: Updated the "New / Improved This Version..." link to point to version 26.

26.0.12 (12/12/2019)

1. NEW: Made it possible to specify the bitrate of an external encoder instead of it always using 1440.
2. Changed: PSI parser in TV engine will check CRC of a PAT section before flushing existing data.

26.0.11 (12/11/2019)

1. Changed: More improvements in Theater View TV guide navigation, especially when a long program is on a channel at the top or bottom of the list and navigation rolls over from bottom to top or vice versa.
2. Changed: A few threading changes that could improve stability.

26.0.10 (12/10/2019)

Is YouTube EVER going to work again? Now I can't even get the dialog box when I press a YouTube link in MC. I think last time YouTube worked properly and consistently was in MC 17 or 18...

EDIT:
None of the trailers work (Play Trailer -> Nothing to Play on all movies I tried).
Theater View -> Something went wrong with playback. The file could not be found. etc..

Tried both Chromium and IE browser engines.

9. Changed: Customized the waveform colors for the Black on Black, Thunderstorm, Z, Aruba, Green Eyes, Purity, Pearl Bailey, Modern Cards Dark, Modern Cards White and Blue Steel skins to better match.
10. Changed: Made the waveform bar a little smoother on wide screens.

Now the waveform looks awesome, thank you so much!! I love JRiver even more!

Just curious - what are the download stats on 64 bit vs 32 bit? Are most running 64 bit? Please ignore if none of my business.

Most recent machines and their OS's are 64 bit.  Check your machine under Control Panel > System.

Standard View/Quick Search: consecutive clicks on the Find Next/Previous buttons do not work properly i.e. nothing happens. It will work if you first move the mouse cursor away from the button move the cursor a bit. Pressing F3 also works (a shortcut for Find Previous would be nice btw).

Windows 10 1909 Pro, MC 26.0.18/9 x64

[The Big Labinski]

I made now an update from 26.0.14 to 26.0.19. With this update, I lost my registration. This was not a problem but I just want like to inform you about this.

[Awesome Donkey]

It was intended, they made a registration change in 26.0.18 which required re-registering MC26.

[Striker]

MC26.exe /startMin does not work every time.

So far, this seems to work ...

Code: [Select]

REM 20200131 latest attempt to start MC minimized... working so far
REM          the "" seems to be required.

Movie trailers still not working.
