DDMF Metaplugin and Dirac Live Processor VST3 do not work
'No display available'

Very old bug (since maybe ver 23-24): in Library view - Files when start JRiver from remembered directory not work going to parent directories.

New bug 27 ver: columns dimentions (artist, tracks etc) live their own life.

New bug 27 ver: columns dimentions (artist, tracks etc) live their own life.

Not a bug, the auto size columns feature is on by default in MC27. Disable it by going to MC's Options > Tree & View and uncheck Auto size columns and hit OK. After restarting MC it should save and retain custom column sizes.

4. Changed: Left click won't pause when releasing a menu or double-clicking.

15. NEW: Left clicking a playing video will toggle the pause state (except blu-ray because the menu needs the clicks).

Thanks very much for adding left-click to pause!
Just fyi though, I am having trouble where double-clicking the playing window will change the play/pause.

For instance, if I single-left-click to pause.  And then I double-click to exit full-screen, it will exit full screen but it also starts playing again. It does not remain paused.

And vice-versa as well.

I can't reproduce this.  Double-click works as expected for me and does not toggle pause.

Are you set to really slow double-clicks or something?  Anyone else?

Thanks.

Yaobing was able to reproduce the double-click pausing and jumping views, and we'll have a hopeful fix in the next build.  Thanks for the help.

Moving a folder with a freshly tagged album to a new location (folder contains audio files and associated jpg's)

Media Center 'claims'        folder.jpg already exists: skip, replace, cancel
Since the new folder did not exist prior, how can it contain a file with the same name?

It does this only with image files, not the audio files.
It does it on each album if moving more than one.
It is not limited to folder.jpg, but also cover.jpg and others.
It existed prior to this build, but passed it off as an anomaly.

Still increments the play count by 2 when playing to a DLNA device. Once when play starts and again after the track has finished.

EDIT: This only happens when using MCWS. In fact, when playing to "this device" via JRemote2 you will see the play count increment by 2.

EDIT #2: Not happening now after a server reboot. Sorry

64 bit version hangs on installation, never gets beyond updating files. I've deleted each unsuccessful .exe and redownloaded, rebooted the computer. Haven't experienced this in prior builds. I've attempted to create a rule in the firewall (Windows Defender) but of course there is no file yet installed.

We've had a couple recent reports of this.  Here's one:

Please use that thread if you need more help.  I'm pretty sure it's related to security software.

Split Unable to Load Silicondust EPG

64 bit version hangs on installation, never gets beyond updating files. I've deleted each unsuccessful .exe and redownloaded, rebooted the computer. Haven't experienced this in prior builds. I've attempted to create a rule in the firewall (Windows Defender) but of course there is no file yet installed.

It turned out to be a problem with Windows Defender:

This version locks/stops every time upon attempting to run it.

Thanks. That was not it; I had already configured Defender during previous MC Build's troubleshooting. I think I discovered the culprit (new SiliconDust EPG feature), and I am starting a thread to describe it. Thank you again.
