20. Fixed: Menus would not work with World Time (and possibly other) title bar utility.
21. Changed: Zooming during image playback (with mouse wheel, etc.) will pause the slideshow.
22. Changed: Image playback works more like music playback -- reports duration, play/pause, can seek, etc.

Ampersand are not appearing in the Quick Pay menu in File menu (not sure yet if this is the case for all menus...)

Hi Matt,

what about storing cover art internally in wma format? Are you going to fix that?

Menus are configured in the customize toolbar as &File &Edit etc but the underlines do not show on the menus themselves.  Presumably this is why ampersands do not appear correctly (seee above) as they have been configured to be shortcuts...

Still not sure if this jumping to Hairstyle after a video or image slideshow in Full SCreen.  Could this be an option??  I would much prefer it to go back to the main window unless I had started in Hairstyle in which case I would prefer it to go to Hairstyle.  Seems a bit strange that if you have started in the main screen double clicked to go to full screen that when the thing is finished you end up in Hairstyle...

Microsoft changed how they do things for WMA 9, so this may be tricky.

Why would a blank screen be better?  You can double-click to leave Hairstyle just like you could from a blank screen.

Rather than a blank screen I was meaning that if it has come from mega me that it jumps back to mega me...

Sorry for the confusion

I second NoCodeUK. At the end of a slideshow I may want to go back to the starting point and select the next slide show. Now I get back to the main menu of Hairstyle - not very logical.

I think, if you start from Hairstyle go back to Hairstyle, if you start from Media Library Window go back to that.

Thanks for telling! Cover Art works now, although for consistency internal storing would be preferred, can wait on this!

Remove Cover Art: For consistency it should also be two-phased like delete from library, choice of:

1) Delete cover art from albums (either internal or link)
2) Delete cover art from hard disk too.

Request
Make the 'View Scheme Properties' window resizeable as its VERY hard to edit long strings in here currently due to the limited size. If I could simply drag this window to be twice as wide it'd REALLY help a lot.

Fixed
Jumping to the burning screen now only takes 4 seconds - quite a lot faster - thanks.
Clicking on extra files after some have been sent to the burner and clicking on the burn button now sends them too.

Request
  • Before it never used to jump to the burn screen - now it does it every time which means this button cant be used as a quick way to add files to the burn playlist - could the jump to burner screen be optional?

  • A shuffle option in the right click menu of the burn playlist to create a truely random compilation cd.

  • Some way to 'temporarily' re-sort a view without it permenantly changing the view for all the nodes in that tree.

When selecting and playing a video from disk, switching from internal to full screen mode and back blacks out the screen and it takes a few seconds until the video reappears. Before it was a quick switch!

I had problems installing this version & 9.0.131.  got the following error screens...

"Errors Encounted While Performing the Operation.
Look at the information window for more details."

But there was no more details.

This happens about 1/4 of the way through the initial Setup screen.

I got finally 131 to install but 132 won't.

I am seeing the following issues with Media Center:

1. Mp3's imported from a CD do not display images stored in the file during playback or in the database.

2. Can't seem to create a View Scheme that will show a CD of mp3's in the tree by Volume Name/Filename. Files on hard drives show correctly under this scheme but the CDs do not show the folders below the root at all.

3. When in window modde the file propertise window gets los under the Media center window when another track is clicked in the library. Should at least have an option for "Always on top".

4. Everytime Media Center opens it sets the volume for the "wave" output to maximum.

5. Resizing Media Center horizontally in mega-me mode intermittently causes album art being displayed in a visualization to revert to the the MJ Surfer. (Art is inside MP3 file)

I note that hierarchicial 'sticky' sorting by columns in the Content Pane arrived at about beta 130.  I have a few questions.

How can I remove the sorts?  I only seem to be able to re-order them once they're there.

In order to be able to specify the sorting, for example:

   Primary: Album, ascending order
   Secondary:  Artist, ascending order
   Tertiary: Track # ascending order,

the only way I have found to implement (starting from the default sort), is to apply them in the reverse order (i.e. Tertiary, secondary, primary).

Is there some other mechanism (like a MS Word style sort dialog for example) that I haven't found?

Also, I think that there may be some quirks.  For example:  I sorted by Album, then added a composer column at the left.  So far, so good.

Then, I changed view - went to a playlist and then back to the original view. Arriving back whence I began, the sort was now active on the Composer column.

Excellent concept, but I am unclear how to drive it.

When playing a .rm Real Video file, editing library fields for any other .rm file will cause MC to hang while trying to save the changes. Not sure if this is true for other formats as well.

I can confirm the same problem...mine are garbled as well.  However, I manually typed in a new one and it worked, but MC retained the dropdown list of garbled entry(s).

- When in Full Hairstyle Mode (22009,3), it is not possible to switch to Full Visualisation mode (22009,2) via the new MCC commands, it stays in Full Hairstyle Mode.

- Can't we have the option back to put the toolbar on the second line underneath the menu ? all my icons won't fit on it now.

- Now we have the option in the right click menu to export a playlist if we clicked a playlist in the treeview. Can we have this for every item in the tree ?

- Using Date Created in a custom made view scheme for my images doesn"t show anything and grouping them does not work either.

- Copy/Paste songs from one library to another doesn't work anymore

- When "Play" is selected in the option "Action to perform when media is inserted" does not work. It asks what to do, if I click "Play", it switches to the device and then pops up with "Please select files to play". As well as for Audio as DVD

- In search wizard : Media Type "Video" is gone, only "Audio" & "Image" is there

Bug?

I moved all my mp3's to my new drive then removed my old drive and did afind replace in the library to swap all the old filenames to the new drive and dir. (What you suggested Matt just so u have some idea what I'm talking about).
Anyway - at the end of the operation I recieved error messages for all the files saying: Failed to update the following files:
then listing all the files that it should have actually now found.
- It worked but the error message shouldn't be there which is the bug I'm reporting. Also - for a few of the operations, the list should have been huge but all I saw on screen was a huge box (the alert box) but it was totally blank - presuming because it had too much info to deal with from thousands of tracks.

Since upgrading to 9.0.132 I can't run the program.  When I open Media Center I get a message box

"Windows Media v9 is not installed on the system.  Do you want to download and install it now?"

I click on "Yes" get a brief progress bar which quickly shows a download.  When I try to play a track I get the same message box.  

I've tried rebooting & reinstalling.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.

CD LABELLER
- Does'nt print the image - it's been like this for ages
-
SORTING
--- No problems with columns that are totally populated eg Name, Album etc. It sorts these quickly and accurately both in ascending and descending sequence. For columns that are not totally populated eg comments, notes etc, it not only takes a long time to complete, but there is no accuracy in the result. It should, for an ascending sort for instance, place all the blank fields first, but this does'nt happen. Non-blank fields seem to be anywhere up and down the column. This has been like this for ages.

VOLUME
- Ctrl++ and Ctrl+- not working

CRASHES
-     Still getting lots of crashes for no discernible reason.

Hi,
I had on my computer the version 9.0.123, today I downloaded and installed the 9.0.132 but the program doesn't work, it doesn't open. So, I completely deinstalled and  reinstalled, but it's always the same, doesn't work.
So I downloaded the 9.0.131 but the cd label doesn't work, it gives an error message and it close itself,  other functions that I use  works.
So I deinstalled and installed 9.0.123 and this version is the only version that works.
I hope can install a next version..... :'( :-X :-/ :'(

MC 9.0.132
*NEW
- Scary stuff! Pressing backspace does something but I don't know what! One visual thing is that the playlist above the current one is marked... anything else?? ?
- Clicking Tools - Skin Manager puts the skin window behind MC
*OLD
- 9.0.129: Holding mouse pointer about a cm over the player window, a tooltip pops up saying "Current file (double-click for properties / right-click for Send-to)". Assume this only should appear if the pointer is directly on top of the player window. Seems to happen only when MC's skinned
- 9.0.129: When browsing for Properties - image, the bottom scrollbar is missing. Happens only in some folders (E:\Music2\_Album\, but not in E:\Music2)
- 9.0.129: Sticky views sorting doesn't work with smartlists (Tested: New smartlist,[Media Type]=[Audio] [Number Plays]=>=1)
- 9.0.129: If you select a file in playing now, right-click and reshuffle, the same position (not the same file) is selected...plus the first song!
*ANCIENT
- Double-click on a song in Explorer. If Properties - "Import automatically.." is not checked, the 'Date imported' (in the properties window) is set anyway to when the song is played.
- Quick Play. If you scroll down, the list continues to scroll until the end of the list. Seems to happen when you go through all files (a VERY big list)
- In Mini-Me, MC doesn't display cover art (Display: None) when transparent unless MC's transparent when song changes
- Sticky views doesn't remember sort order in 'Recently Imported' or in 'Playing Now'. Suspects that 'Seq' overrides.
- Can't search for '&' in search panel
- 'Last played' and 'Number of plays' logic wrong. Changes the song to +1 directly past 50% instead of waiting until song is stopped/next is played. Compare with how it worked in MJ8 before MC beta, that's the way it SHOULD work.
- Auto Smartlist "Top Hits -- haven't heard for over a year" doesn't include numberplays keyword, so it really doesn't show any "Top Hits". Same issue for "Top Hits -- listened to today"
- The slider in File Properties flickers between skinned and windows standard when dragged or clicked
- Media Center is named Media Jukebox in Task Manager - Processes
- View Scheme doesn't work with Date Imported. Shows the different date in the tree, but nothing under each item (search panel shows: [Date Imported]=[16 days, 10 hours ago]...perhaps it should convert to a date?). With grouping, it only shows 0-9...
- Bug with resizing MC. You can't resize Mega-me at all after doing the following steps:
1. Select a smartlist
1. Right click on an item in the search panel and select "Edit by typing".
2. Try to resize MC. It doesn't work until you change view to another playlist or scheme.
 Alt+TAB after trying to resize MC also shows a hidden window "JRiver Playback Engine Window"
- Copy/paste in Search panel, you can't select a single item and copy it, nor paste it. Copy/Paste only works with whole string
Haven't tested, but not reported as fixed:
- Installer doesn't remove old install entries in add/remove programs. (Media jukebox entry) Can't check, have made a reinstall of Windows, please confirm
- Undo doesn't work when pasting from one search panel to another
*OTHER
- Seems that MC doesn't show the tag for Replay Gain "COMM(Replay Gain)" at all anymore! What's going on with the tags anyway??? I think a list of whats available and not is in it's place.
*FIXED
- Tooltip in notification area display ' ' instead of '&'
- When importing, the Track # tag is rewritten from 0x to x NOTE: This one pops up now and then, I don't know if the code is ill or something...

*NEW
- Scrollbar flicker (see previous post) also appear in Tools - Options - Left pane
- Using scroll wheel in Tools - Options - Left pane uses some weird "Top-Bottom" setting. Please use system settings
*OTHER
- Order in Tools - Options - Left pane seems totally havoc. Startup or GEneral settings should by all means be forst in the list

I noticed the change of the order in the options screen too but guessed it may have been a new feature ;D  It is pretty screwy tho not having general and playback near the top as these are the ones peeps will use the most often...

I was entering some lyrics and the track that I was entering them for finished before I saved the lyrics.  When I clicked save MC shut down without an error or any warning...
