26.0.95 (6/25/2020)

1. Fixed: FLAC-in-Ogg radio streams did not play.
2. Fixed: Loading a preset in the conversion window could crash.
3. Changed: Updated Modern Cards Dark standard view skin.
4. Fixed: The Playback/Zones MCWS call won't return a hidden zone as the current zone if hidden zones are not asked for (just returns the zero index zone).
5. Changed: Added the option to draw lyrics for every 50 lines.
6. Fixed: A possible fix of the issue of DVB subtitle showing up one word a time.
7. Fixed: When the scrollbar expanded and shrunk again, it could scroll this list.
8. NEW: Added the ability to create an expression based calculated field to Library/CreateField.

26.0.94 (6/17/2020)

1. Changed: Automatically update the Playing Now toolbar button (instead of requiring a re-add).
2. Changed: MC will be more tolerating to badly written "Year" tag by other programs.

26.0.93 (6/16/2020)

1. Fixed: The Add to Playing Now toolbar button would not work in the expected way.

26.0.92 (6/16/2020)

1. Fixed: Checking the box in options to submit to Last.fm was not working.
2. Fixed: WAV streams without a content length did not play.
3. Fixed: Audio stream selection in videos did not always work properly if no language was specified.
4. Changed: Updated German translation file (thanks Bytestar).
5. Fixed: Accents in values for GroupCountQuery did not work properly.
6. Changed: Slovak translation updated (thanks Peter Lukac).
7. Changed: Searching list fields also searches with and without accents now instead of only without.
8. Fixed: MC could get wrong date from ID3 tags in some mp3 files.
9. NEW: Added the ListFormat(...) expression function.

26.0.91 (6/9/2020)

1. Fixed: Media Center only sends sidecar subtitles for the current file to the client, instead of all found in the current directory tree.
2. Fixed: ListGrep was not honoring the mode switch for case sensitivity.
3. Fixed: The example for ListFind had the wrong function name.
4. Fixed: The number function did not pull negative numbers.
5. NEW: Added a ListRemove expression.
6. Changed: Reverted the change to separate the statusbar text.  It's all in the center again.
7. NEW: Added modes 3 (remove empty strings) and 4 (trim strings) to the ListClean(...) expression function.
8. Fixed: Right-click the Tag window "Customize This Field" would not scroll to the new field if the display name was different than the name.
9. NEW: The author field is filled from OPF sidecars.
10. Fixed: List fields with multiple values did not work properly with the GroupCountQuery function.
11. NEW: Added OPF file tagging for e-books (requires data be on for the sidecar setting).
12. Fixed: The number function searches for actual numbers after a dot so something like (. 1) won't get read as just a dot.
13. Fixed: Loading DSP presets would have the current equalizer settings overwrite the new preset settings.
14. Fixed: The on / off state of plugins would not refresh right away when loading a DSP preset.
15. Fixed: When changing Audio Program using right-click menu for live TV playback, the new audio type and language were not properly configured.

17. Fixed: FLAC streams without a content length did not play.
18. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).

26.0.90 (6/5/2020)

1. Fixed: Commas in the ListMix(...) function would not get handled properly.

26.0.89 (6/5/2020)

1. Fixed: Editing list fields in the tag window would delimit the list with "; " instead of just ";".
2. NEW: Sidecars for epub books will look for any OPF in the same folder instead of only the same filename.
3. Changed: The -2 parameter for RegEx in the expression language will output all matches now.
4. Changed: The statusbar shows the file status on the right and the working (or ready) status in the center.
5. Fixed: TheMovieDB TV show lookup did not properly use the selected metadata language for all data.
6. Fixed: Playback to MCWS zones could crash when querying about Last.fm.
7. Changed: Made some more replacements of "; " with ";" for list building in tagging.

26.0.88 (6/3/2020)

1. Fixed: Possible crash during playback in rare cases.
2. Changed: Manage TV Channels tool will now show channel details (Device name, URL, etc.) of Tuner Stream channels.
3. Changed: When matching TitanTV TV channels with ATSC channels in MC, we use relaxed matching criteria because TitanTV uses outdated physical channel number on some channels.
4. Changed: When viewing an ATSC channel using TitanTV interface, MC will try matching with a Tuner Stream channel if an ATSC channel is not found.
5. Changed: The ListMix expression function escapes parenthesis in the replacements so they won't disrupt the parser and look like functions.
6. NEW: Added the expression Enviro to load a system environment variable.
7. Fixed: The ListMix function included extra information by mistake in the tooltip.
8. Changed: All the parameters for live playback are in the URL so you can configure multiple streams pointing to different hardware and save them to a playlist or similar.
9. NEW: Added a ListGrep expression function to filter a list to a matching string.
10. Fixed: Setting current audio program as default when playing live TV on a client did not work.
11. Fixed: Movie lookup on TheMovieDB uses a specified year for more accurate results.
12. Fixed: Looking up TV Shows on TheMovieDB will prefer the previously selected show, as intended.
13. Changed: Added Genre and Access Rating to the TheMovieDB TV series lookup.
14. Changed: The "Get Movie & TV Info" tool allows selecting a desired movie poster or episode thumbnail, instead of only offering up the first one.
15. Changed: Made the option to scrobble zone specific (you'll have to turn it back on for the zones you want).
16. Changed: Last.fm won't ask for a login when the program is in error free mode.
17. Changed: GroupSummaryQuery delimits a list of fields with semi-colons instead of dashes.
18. Changed: When we search for accents, we search for both the accent and the non-accent instead of only the non-accent (makes GroupSummaryQuery work better).
19. Fixed: Sat>IP TV tuner did not work in recent builds.

26.0.87 (5/29/2020)

1. NEW: Slanted quotes (“”) in titles are replaced with regular quotes (") for lyrics lookup.
2. NEW: Slanted single quotes (‘’) in titles are replaced with reqular single quotes (') for lyrics lookup.
3. NEW: Added a mode 5 to the Clean(...) expression function that standardizes quotes.
4. NEW: Revamped Tuner Stream (DMS) TV channel support.  Primarily for Linux and Mac, but will work on Windows.  Tested with HDHomeRun Prime, and HDHomeRun Extend tuners.  Should also work with HDHomeRun Connect.
5. Changed: Media Center now uses TheMovieDB for TV Show metadata lookup, series/season posters and Theater View background art.

26.0.86 (5/27/2020)

1. Changed: The OSD doesn't display when playing an image, then jumping to full screen (before it would show the zoom level).

3. Changed: Updated Modern Cards Dark standard view skin.

Attached is a screenshot of what the Playing Now tree under Modern Cards: Dark Edition standard view now looks like for me.  The icons for the Zones all seen to feature a white triangle on a fairly light-gray semi-rounded rectangle.  Is this as intended?

(I don't think I altered any of the standard icons when I installed MC 26, but I'll go double-check.)

Yes, it's intended. The new Dark Edition changes were made by marko in his fork of the skin. This was one of the changes he did, though that one icon does look a bit off, I agree, might have to ask marko about that one. Overall in my opinion the lighter, white icons look much better than the old icons which really didn't match the skin.

EDIT: Okay, marko confirmed it's actually not intended and will try to take a look over the weekend.

You can easily restore the previous version by ZIP'ing up J River\Media Center 26\Skins\Standard View\ModernCards Dark when MC26 is closed with the older version.  After installing the update, close MC26 again and delete the entire ModernCards Dark folder under Standard View.  Restore your ZIP into this location.  Restart it, and the skin is returned to what you remember.

In case you no longer have access to the old installation, I uploaded my ZIP file here:  https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/6lqodthmw79hig1/ModernCards_Dark_old.zip

Those icons do lack a bit of contrast, which makes them look not ideal. You can barely make out the white silhouette inside the light grey icon background. Maybe it should be light backgrounds with dark silhouettes inside, instead of light on light?

I am really not liking this Modern Cards update and will be rolling back to an older version (which was pretty much perfect).

Unfortunately - I will now need to write a script to replace the skin after each update - but that should be easy enough.

Thanks for the tips on getting it back - works perfectly!

Cheers!

No worries, I already forked off the old Dark Edition skin and renamed it to Dark Legacy Edition. I'll be posting it to my Modern Cards skin topic in a little bit.

Marko confirmed it's not intended in his topic. He said he'll try to take a look over the weekend.

What does this mean - that the older version will be installed as well - so we can use it?

Yep, the older version can be downloaded and installed alongside the new version of the skin.

Excellent! Do you have a link to your Modern Cards thread?

Thanks, Donkey, Hendrik, and Jamil, for the follow-up and both efforts to make the older version available!

Sorry if this is the wrong thread - but I'm curious as to why the 3 new ListClean(...) modes

7. NEW: Added modes 3 (remove empty strings) and 4 (trim strings) to the ListClean(...) expression function. - 26.0.91 (6/9/2020)
3. NEW: Added a mode 5 to the Clean(...) expression function that standardizes quotes. - 26.0.87 (5/29/2020)

are not available via the Library Tools >> Clean File Properties... Option?
