I had explained a bit earlier today why I'm sticking to that perticular version: The next build had introduced some 'auto update' function for network views which messed up my random sorting for movies. (A feature I use extensively, can provide more details if you like.. ;-)
The second reason is that I'm not using MC for television or streaming; and don't see why anyone would, because one is available with the player/recorder software you get with most any TV card or stick, and the other by your preferred browser... That's just toys to attract a larger audience... ;-)

AH, this goes to show you we're all idiots in some area ;D
Yep, I don't use DLNA at all. Last time I tried it was 5 or 10 years ago (not with MC) and it sucked. I just use an HTPC connected to the TV.
Anyway, sounds like there are plenty of options to control what you get on the TV. You just need to explore them and find out what works.
The Paste tags command... it's just there, enabled, and it works. I don't know why it's not active for you on v25 - could be a bug, or maybe it's not detecting what it expects on the Clipboard. Check immediately after you Copy the tags - is it active then?
There may be a number of bugs affecting this that have already been fixed in the 300 or so builds after the one you have. Even if you're not willing to upgrade to v27, you should really update to v25.0.115. Maybe try a separate install just to test things, and then revert back to your current version if you find it still doesn't work for you.
andrewberg:
No problem, I'm just as ignorant about stuff like streaming, HTPC (for 'Home Theatre' isn't it?) and many more... ;-)
Great idea to test the feature right after copying from MC -- 'Paste tags' was right there! So it must be related to the clipboard and/or data format... I have used MS Office Excel version 2003 (with macros disabled), what would that tell you?
zybex:
It should work...but you could try a more recent version of MSOffice or LibreOffice - maybe the clipboard object format is different.
Try copying with and without column headers; try copying just 1 column, with and without header; make sure you're just copying the exact same number of movies that are selected in MC; try copying all columns (as many as are on MC's view); Try copying just 1 cell or 1 row, and select just 1 movie in MC;
For each test, check if the Paste Tags option is now available.
