Media Center 11.1.39 Alpha
« on: October 21, 2005, 04:59:39 pm »

  • This is a very early alpha of 11.1.
  • There aren't a lot of new features in it yet.
  • It will work with the same MC11 license that 11.0 uses.
  • As always, use at your own risk, and don't make it your first download of MC.

As always, please post ONLY BUGS here -- anything requiring discussion should go in a new thread.  Posts may be deleted or moved.

Media Center 11.1 ALPHA is now available.  PRICES for MC11.0 and 11.1 are here: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?board=3;action=display;threadid=23311

The public release version of Media Center 11.0 is available here:
http://www.jrmediacenter.com/download.html (recommended for new users)

This latest build of MC11.1 ALPHA is here:
http://ftp.jriver.com/pub/downloads/music/MediaCenter111039.exe

MC 11.1.39 (10/21/05)

1. Fixed: Ripping could write the wrong number of tracks to cdplayer.ini, losing the last track info.
2. Fixed: Player could crash when failing to create a playlist on an MTP device.
3. Changed: MC does a better job of working with WMDM players that have no PDT entry.
4. Fixed: Encoders were not always using on-the-fly compression when they should have been.

MC 11.1.38 (10/20/05)

1. NEW: Added new search modifier ~fill to support limiting a smartlist to the number of files needed to fill the default device. (NOTE: you can use ~fill=[...] with a device name to specify a device)
2. Changed: Improved handheld "convert if necessary" logic so players that support multiple formats will only convert files that are not any of those formats.
3. Fixed: Inserting an audio CD with no files on it would still attempt auto-playback.
4. Fixed: When creating a new playlist from the Send To menu, the action window list wouldn't show the new tracks right away.
5. Fixed: MC could show "Circular Reference" errors in cases where there was no circular reference.
6. NEW: Typing when a list control has the focus runs a silent quick search (Ctrl+Q) instead of searching just one column. (tap F3 to find subsequent matches)
7. Fixed: Some packages (MP3 encoder, etc.) would fail to install.

MC 11.1.37 (10/18/05)

1. Fixed: Playlists would not properly transfer to a handheld when certain options were set.
2. Fixed: Performing sync's with file conversion enabled on WMDM devices would resend the same files over and over.
3. Changed: Changed default convert option for handhelds and servers to "Convert (if necessary)." (instead of never converting)
4. Fixed: Library lists would not update as expected to reflect changes in the playing track.
5. Changed: Select All / Select None gives the list that responds the focus so future global commands (analyze audio, etc.) use tracks from this UI piece.

MC 11.1.35 (10/14/05)

1. Changed: Play count, rating, etc. is synced back from a handheld as soon as "Check Synchronization" is clicked so that an accurate picture of what needs to be sent can be presented.
2. NEW: iPod shuffle support. Current support requires that a cleanly formatted Shuffle (using iPod Updater)has been run with iTunes one time prior to running with MC. After running with MC, iTunes will need to rewrite the Shuffle database.  AAC and Audible content performance not fully tested.
3. Changed: Reworked installation system finalizer to hopefully fix hangs after installing plugins reported by some users.
4. Changed: Revised shutdown system to fix rare cases where the process could hang at the tail of shutdown.
5. Changed: Switched how the installer detects a running process of Media Center so it won't accidently run with a dead process lingering.
6. Fixed: In-place editing in list controls was not working properly.
7. Fixed: On-the-fly conversion to handhelds was not always working as expected.
8. Changed: Improved list messaging during handheld uploads. (show progress bars, etc.)
9. Changed: "Sync Now" button changes to "Cancel Sync" button in a handheld view header when a transfer is in progress.

Is anybody having any problems with Normalizing/VOlume Leveling?

This for some reason in all the 11.1 builds doesn't seem to work.. My volume is going up and down like a yo-yo

PROBLEMS WITH MEDIA SERVER

I installed the last version of 11.1. on my Server PC and as it seems pretty stable and Client PC would not stream with the 11.0 version installed on the Client ("Incompatible Data Format" or similar), I also installed 11.1.39 on my Client PC in the Living Room.

However, it simply does not stream any Adio Files thru MediaServer any longer.  It says "Opening" for a while and than aborts with a message that it cant find it.

The file plays ok when directly accessed thru the Network drive and MC11.1

Would be great if anyone has any ideas why this is???

I've got funny things happening with the search bar on the playing
now view in this one.  i start typing for example summer, and it gets as far as the
s before loosing focus and giving it to the playing now list.

Can this version be installed side by side with 11.0.
Saw where you made changes so 11 can coexist with 12 etc but wanted to make sure that also applied to point releases.

No.  MC11.1 will replace 11.0.

Can't delete files on my ipod with this version of MC.   I tried to manually delete and use the sync to playlist w/delete and both methods fail.  Revered back to 11.1.38 and works fine.

Also can't install any services.  They download and seem to install but never display in the tree.

I uninstalled this version and went back to .316
All play well here.

But this made me think, can you add 'Save Options'  to the options menu?
I can restore the library and get my playlists back, but I make a fair number of changes to the options and have to go reset them when I change between versions.

Actually the coverart is still inside the File but MC11.1.39 does not create some thumbnails for some weird reasons.

Also the MediaServer problem continues to nag me.

When I insert a CD, it comes up with the box asking me what I want to do (as I prefer), I choose rip and it goes and gets the track info and then it just stops. In order to rip the CD, I have to Click on Rip in the Action Window.

This might have started with .38, I don't remember, but it is definitely happening with .39
