Hi Matt,

No settings displayed with Airwindows VST plugins, checked with other software all working fine.

ListBuild(1,;,Replace([Actors],;,/,))
Seems to return comma separated list instead of semicolon separated list

You're replacing the semicolons with a comma.  So that's what gets passed to ListBuild(...).

Could you provide a download link to that VST?  Is it VST2 or VST3?

Thanks.

You're replacing the semicolons with a comma.  So that's what gets passed to ListBuild(...).

I'm replacing them inside the function as documentation says that ListBuild items needs to be comma separated and created list's separator is given as second parameter.

However ListBuild() seems to work if I just i give semicolon separated list for it... Don't know though what's the use of ListBuild's separator parameter then?

[marko]

Without memory refresh testing...

If you gave it two semicolon delimited lists to build from, and specified a separator of say, a dash, then it would build as [ list 1]-[ list 2]
lists 1 & 2 would retain their semicolons.

That VST2 plugin doens't have this set:
effFlagsHasEditor

It doesn't show any editor all the way back to MC25.

[DeaneG]

Thank you for continuing to work on TV/DVR functionality by the way!

[JunoAudio]

You are right, I reported this back in MC 25 and MC26
https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,122842.msg850987.html#msg850987
I will feedback "effFlagsHasEditor" not set to Airwindows.
But two other software packages work with this plug-in, they must handle this differently.
Also please check that you can move the plug-in, in DSP studio list as Voxengo crashed MC - https://www.voxengo.com/product/curveeq/
I appreciate your work on this...

Cheers,

[jherbert]

vst3 plugins that do not display: Lindell TE-100, SPL HawkEye, izotope probably more (did not try them all).

SPL-Passeq is fine, as is fabfilter Pro-Q3, bx-digital V3, izotope ozone 8, izotope rx 6

Will report more when installed.

Possible playlist problem
https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,126855.msg879405.html#msg879405

I could not get shutdown command work from the panel interface. I can shutdown remotely only if I use http://ip:52199/MCWS/v1/Control/MCC?Command=27001,0
Authentication is set and enabled, I disabled the read-only authentication.

[RoderickGI]

I could not get shutdown command work from the panel interface.

The Sleep and Hibernate functions work for me, but the Restart and Shutdown do not, from either a Client or directly on the Server.

So, confirmed. It could still be a security issue, Windows Policy setting, or something other than MC, but if it works via MCWS, I would have expected it to work within Panel.

This seems like a bug.  It seems there is a maximum number of items allowed in an audio playlist when using the Gizmo remote.  I have a few different playlists.  When I open the now playing screen in the Gizmo remote my smaller playlists have a button that lets me list the items in the playlist.  I have one playlist that has almost 2900 songs.  When I open the now playing screen in Gizmo when running that playlist the button to see the playlist is missing.

Bug: DDMF Metaplugin v3.2.9 VST3 causes crash, JRiver quits when I try to open DSP Studio
I can no longer use JRiver

EDIT:
in 27.0.12 it no longer crashes but simply no screen is displayed:

[mikolajek]

Interesting - upgraded from ver. 26.0.0.107 to 27.0.0.10 without any problems. But after installing 27.0.0.12 over, I've lost my database... No problem with restoring from the backup, but it's weird.

Hi,

I am unable to Chromecast from my Notebook's MC v27 for Windows 10 (via BubbleUPnP Server) any ripped DVDs anymore to my Sony Bravia Android based TV with built-in Chromecast. This used to work before on MC v26. On the TV screen the error message "Cannot play video" appears.

However, with ripped BluRay it work fine.

I have no clue where and what to look for the culprit.

Please advise.
