5. Fixed: Remote Control page and other borders could be back unintentionally for a few builds.
6. Improved: More reduction of the amount of time for TV guide loading and displaying.
7. Changed: Switched the VST flush of silence from five second to three seconds to make stopping a little faster with slow filters.

21. NEW: Add Spotlight search for Actors/Directors to main search box.
22. Fixed: Artwork could be sized incorrectly in some cases.
23. Fixed: When playing a TV channel using Transport Stream time-shifting (the new time-shifting), the OSD program info text stayed forever unless another OSD came along to replace it..

25. NEW: Add Spotlight search for Movies and TV Shows to main search box (see entries at the end of the dropdown).
26. NEW: Added the ability to export and import all Theater View templates.
27. Fixed: The transport stream time-shifting did not clean up buffering files properly when viewing of a TV channel was stopped (.jrts and *.jrts.cnk files were left in folders).

29. Changed: The installer no longer allows installation into the root of the program files folder.
30. Changed: "Legacy method" (as referring to program stream time-shifting method) is renamed "original method".
31. Changed: Default time-shifting method is changed to the original method, instead of "Use Transport Stream Time-shifting for bda tuners in addition to ...".
32. Changed: The skin name hash is stored along with the view header images so changing skins will not require a restart for custom artwork to populate.

37. Fixed: The extra channels selection could unintentionally grow when picking other settings.
38. Fixed: Playing audio with more then 8 channels could result in extra channels being silenced if the output would not exactly match (now channel are copied as there is space, and then cut off).
