ftp://ftp.jriver.com/pub/downloads/music/MediaJukebox90072.exe Changes
1. NEW: Added "channel offset" to the ASIO configuration. (verified that DTS discs work with MJ)
2. Fixed: Search wizard for sorting wasn't allowing letters to be typed in the search box.
3. Fixed: Media Jukebox could get confused about its play state when pausing. (so the player window would display improperly)
4. Changed: Made "filename" a default search field again. (so searching without a keyword (i.e. something like artist=) looks at this field)
5. Fixed: Searching at the library root could sometimes give unexpected results.
6. Changed: "Type" database field changed to "File Type". (to avoid confusion with "Media Type")
7. Fixed: Playback errors would be displayed as empty message boxes.
8. Fixed: "Update from CD database" wasn't working.
9. Changed: Album analyzer more likely to accept short CD's as "complete".
10. Changed: Improved tree grouping logic, so non-DB fields are group-able.
11. Changed: Improved tree sorting to better handle numbers or string / number mixes.
12. Fixed: After submitting a CD, MJ would re-update the info from the online DB for no reason.
13. Changed: "Last Played" and "Number Plays" both get updated only if a song gets played past the half-way point.
14. Fixed: During image playback, the display bars could get out of sync with the current image.
15. Changed: Clean File Properties -> Title Case does a better job with filenames.
16. Changed: If Media Jukbox fails to move/rename a file, it will no longer update the database. (would break the DB connection to the file)
17. Fixed: After deleting the currently playing file from Playing Now, Next and Previous didn't work.
18. Changed: Hitting "Play" during FF/REW of time-shifted TV will behave more logically.
19. Fixed: In some cases, Media Jukebox wouldn't recover well from failing to load or save a DB file.
20. Fixed: Removing a file from the DB wouldn't properly stop playback on that file if it was playing.
21. Changed: External cover art links no longer saved in file tags.
22. Fixed: Several fixes causing internal cover art to function improperly.
23. Changed: Several TV time-shifting improvements.
24. Changed: Added support for .jpe files.
25. NEW: Introducing the new burning engine that supports cross-fading, on-the-fly decoding of all formats, and lots of other goodies. (more details will follow)
Keep in mind that at this stage, we're getting more bug reports than we can fix each build. Please keep a list of bugs you find, and re-report anything that doesn't get fixed each build.
Thanks for your help, support, and patience.
