WMV's don't show the video.  MC says it's playing, and I can hear the sound, but the only thing in playing now is a caption saying that MC can't show visualizations for this kind of file.

Praise

I'm a fairly new user of Media Jukebox/Center. After experimenting with this and competing products, I'd say that MediaCenter is far and away the best product for my needs.  I purchased a license yesterday and am recommending it to my friends.

Fixed

-Editing file properties: If I edit and save any file property for a mp3 file which contains cover art inside file. The cover art stays in the file, But MC9 changes its reference from "inside file" to "C:\Program Files\J River\Media Center\Cover Art\..."


Bugs

1. Import Media

a. The title usually reads correctly. However, songs with title tags like, "Concerto for Orchestra: I. Introduzione: Andante non troppo; Al" fill the name field with the filename rather than the title from the tag. Not sure what the pattern is.  Perhaps you have a limit on the number of characters in a title that is too small.

b. When reading artist, if TPE2 contains data, artist is filled with data from TPE2.  If TPE2 is blank, then artist is filled with data from TPE1.  You should be consistent.  Artist should always correspond to data from TPE1.

c. Reading track numbers with leading zeros ("01") truncates the zeros.  If I later use MC to change file properties, the leading zero is lost. Would like to keep the leading zeros.

2. When watching TV and clicking on the "Channels <<" button: it removes the list of channels and increases the size of the display properly. However, it does not remove the channel scroll bar. The scroll bar sits in the middle of the picture.

3. Display image. If I enter a path to my own image for use instead of the J River logo, the J River logo still appears on Track Info screens.  The logo should be replaced with my image.

Requests

a. Other tags: Higher priority: Add database fields for TPE2 (Band/Orchestra), TPE3 (conductor/performer refinement), and TIT1 (Content Group Description). Lower priority: also add TKEY, TPE4, TIT3, TPUB

b. Incorporate online TV guide such as Gemstar GuidePlus+

Man this is frustrating...I actually got one disc burned with mp3 files  (It must have been a fluke), but now everytime I try to burn my MP3's to CD, I get this message in the status area at the end of the burn:  "Illegal mode for this track".  This is despite a normal test mode; MC9 looks like it is copying the files, but I keep getting that message at the end, and a useless disc--nothing I can detect on it, no playlists or anything, but the disc is now unwritable.

Everything looks like its queued up fine, and it looks like each file is copying, but I wind up with the dreaded "Illegal mode for this track"  message.  Darn, I thought it was working too--any thoughts??  Anything that I could be doing wrong??

Options - File Associations:

Setting is not sticking when MC is closed and reopened if all files are selected and or unselected.  The settings are sticking if only up to approximately 1/2 of the file types have been enabled.  The .mpl, .rmj, and .rmx file types, if unchecked, will always be checked on returning to MC.

hello:
first at all, congratulations for mj v9. It's working "almost" perfectly, but i can deal with some of their "time to time errors".
But i've noticed one thing that i want to  know why happen :
when analyze audio, it analyze all, but it doesn't appear the replay gain.  ?

One question: what's the difference between autorip and click on start?. I've just ripped 2 cd's and i've done one in each way but haven't noticed any difference

One suggestion: It could be possible for you create an autosmartlist who is more or less something like this: One random song by each band and/or record.
I'll love this feature 'cause i like to do mp3 compilations for my car, and if i only want one song by band i've to do it manually. (No, i don't use rating, i have too many songs to rate). Isuppose that it hasn't to be very hard for you to write the rules for this, but i only can do it if i choose the same #track and it is not the best way to do comps  
Too i'd like to know about two requests that i did some time ago.
One was about change the display of date imported to year/month/day (i find no use in the actual display), and the other was about the possibility of some smart top-hits where we could set the top hits for each moth (for exemple).
Is there some possibility that some of these things go into final V9?

Bug in Analyze Audio.

If I select a few thousand files to analyze it starts to fail after about one thousand. Once this has happened, exiting out of the analyze audio module causes a crash in MC9.

This happens on two different WinXP machines.

Bug

You remove the play arrow from the media library icon.  However, if I go to customize toolbar then play arrow is still there...change the icon here too.

Information Dialog Box:  When uploading files to my iPod, several files did not transfer (I haven't resolved that issue). The subesquent dialog box informing me of the problem was "too wide" for my screen (it extended beyond the visible portion of the program). I could not resize it. At the time I am using the Z Lite skin in the Mega Me mode (could the skin be the problem?).

Just skipped from 9.0.84 to 9.0.105 - wow, many changes, and I seem to be able to burn with no problems now - yeeehah!

Dont think this is really a bug, but...

I really like the new tooltips with the thumbnail of the album cover, which dont take up half the screen like the old ones. But they appear as a borderless grey on my unskinned MC - they are difficult to spot and tend to merge into the background. My WinXP is configured to show the standard 'post-it' yellow with a border. Can MC default to WinXP tooltip settings when unskinned? Or at least make them stand out a bit more?

[richelesro]

Pause is still not working.  If I pause a song for more than 10 minutes, MC hangs when I try to play again.

Big Problem Here With Rename

If You Have A "\" In the Title Name And Do A Rename MC will Create A Dir Like

Title: 867-5309 \ Jenny
Artist: Tommy Tutone
Album: 80s Collection - (Disc 1)
Track #: 1

Will Create A Dir Called

Tommy Tutone - 80s Collection - (Disc 1) - 1 - 867-5309

In Side This Dir Is A File Called

Jenny.mp3

BUG:

• Rename from properties - using this mask: [ARTIST] - [ALBUM] - [TRACK #] - [NAME] is giving me file name's with the format correct except having [track #] in the name instead of replacing it with the track number itself.

BUG: Failed to install APE plugin.  Since all my files are in this format, futher bug testing cannot be done.

I have installed Media Center into a different directory than my Media Jukebox.

You can't have both installed at the same time. Neither will work properly.

Uninstall both, reboot, and reinstall the one you want to keep.

Eggcellent!  Thankee much!

One question: what's the difference between autorip and click on start?. I've just ripped 2 cd's and i've done one in each way but haven't noticed any difference

With AutoRip there is less "clicking" that you need to do. After a CD is finished, it just waits for you to put in the next CD, you don't need to click on anything. If you have multiple CD drives, you can just keep loading and unloading them until you're done.
We'll be changing it soon, so that AutoRip is the normal mode.

I just installed MC 9 and it works really well, but I was wondering if there is any consideration going into reorganizing the library in a way similar to how Winamp 3 or iTunes work, rather than using an Explorer like tree view to sort through songs they use 3 windows one to select an artist and then another to select from a list of available albums and then the last window shows that albums tracks.  This is a much cleaner and faster way of dealing with libraries of several thousand tracks as opposed to having to keep moving down in a tree and then close it so not to clutter up the screen.
Are there skins/plugins that can do this?
