In the upper right corner, cursor can turn into resizer and highlight one of the window buttons (minimize et al) at the same time.  But you can't resize the window.  I've tested this on several skins.

If you see the wrong art, erase your [MC]\Data\Custom Art directory.

Program not responding

This has happened 3 times with this version, If I leave it for several minutes (not playing anything), when I come back, it appears to go to sleep.  "end Task"  has not worked well either.  I needed to reboot.  

It's like getting paged out and never wakes up  ?  

Update: when playing music It works fine....
Update 2:  Mine says updating panes as well..   maybe it should say PAINS.. ;D

At the very bottom of the MC screen, where it tells you the number and size of the files that are selected, it gets stuck saying "Updating panes" quite a bit.  As I navigate around, the information will suddenely be displayed properly, but it will soon go back to getting stuck saying "Updating panes."  I can't really find any pattern to when it works properly and when it doesn't.

Some tag information is being skipped when importing.  I just copied a bunch of audio files to another system and did an import of everything.  Audible and Wave files had several missing tag fields after doing this -- these included Genre, Album, Track, and Year.  The "name" fields were all changed as well -- as if the name was "regenerated" from the filenames.

Every one of these files has ALL of these tag fields on the orginal system, and these fields all show up normally when viewing them via Media Server.  It's just when copying and re-importing them that these fields are "forgotten."

I do all of my tagging in MC, and I have the "update tags when file info changes" box checked.  Do I need to do some sort of "update library" function?

Thanks,

Larry

Action Window:

Left column isn't using same font as right column (Tag Info).
Clearing Playing Now doesn't clear/update window.

Requests:

Lyrics Section (File properties)

Skinning:

<Frame> "CloseButton", "MaximizeButton", "MinimizeButton", and "RestoreButton" doesn't use mouse over images.
<GroupBox> "CaptionArea' is extending the right side too far when there's a & in the text.
<Scrollbar> "Background" is only using first image for all types. Handles and Arrows change when needed.
<ComboBox>/<Edit>: Arrows and Text are skinned; Drop down list / Selected text isn't. Not even using the right scrollbars.

Requests:

<List> "CurrentBack"
<Tab> "Back" Color/Bitmap

Two things:

1. Explorer integration is broken.  I know this is not my PC as this is a brand new Windows Install put on on Saturday...It was broken on the old install but I put that down to a crummy windows install...now I know better ;D

2. Still see the Full Screen display bars in HS occasionally...not necessary and could be confusig...
