Media Center 14.0.140 -- Available Here
« on: February 06, 2010, 08:05:54 am »

This is a beta version of MC 14.  Please post bugs here.  Please start a new thread for anything requiring discussion.  Non-bug posts will be deleted or moved.

http://files.jriver.com/mediacenter/MediaCenter140140.exe

14.0.140 (02/05/2010)

1. Fixed: WASAPI playback could fail to resume from a paused state in some cases with build 139 only.
2. Fixed: DSP Studio for video could result in the wrong renderer being used if the decoder output a format the renderer didn't support (even though the DSP could have converted it).
3. Changed: When doing a manual 'Recheck Sync' on a device, errors with transfer rights will be displayed instead of silently handled.
4. Fixed: Netflix and Hulu playback were broken.

14.0.139 (02/04/2010)

1. NEW: In "Theater View/Connected" there is a Netflix entry which will display and play the instant viewing queue for Netflix subscribers. More to come... (if Netflix doesn't appear for you, you can add it in Options > Theater View > Items To Show)
2. Fixed: ASIO playback with cards that used huge hardware buffers could pause periodically.
3. Changed: ASIO playback option 'Use large hardware buffers' caps the buffer size at a reasonable amount for better support of cards like the Asus Xonar that support huge hardware buffer sizes.
4. Changed: When using ASIO output, hardware latency is accounted for so that visualization data is more perfectly synchronized.
5. Fixed: When an output has a large hardware latency, visualizations could show data not yet heard during the buffering stage.
6. Fixed: DSP Studio during video playback didn't nicely handle a format switch from 32-bit integer to 32-bit floating point.
7. Fixed: DLNA function responses could use the wrong namespace (only applies to build 138).
8. Fixed: DLNA was not working nicely with devices on the non-primary network interface in a configuration with multiple network interfaces.
9. Changed: Revised the DLNA broadcasting of alive notifications to every 5 minutes instead of every minute. (please report if PS3 seems sluggish to find servers)
10. Fixed: Wasapi support was not showing up on XP systems.
11. Fixed: Saving television EPG programs to database took too long in the last few builds.
12. Fixed: madVR video renderer was not used even though the user chose to use it.
13. Fixed: Television playback was not using the correct video renderer selected by the user.
14. Fixed: With some audio hardware, in rare cases WASAPI playback could become garbled.
15. Fixed: Transparency of skinned controls in the search wizard would not work properly.
16. Fixed: The button and background of a combobox were not always drawn in step with regards to mouse-over and mouse-down states.
17. Fixed: In rare cases the position slider could draw outside its bounds when seeking to the end of a track.
18. Fixed: Some wait messages like 'Analyzing devices...' could appear even if Media Center was minimized.
19. Changed: [DLNA] server provides a more explicit list of supported content, enabling Sony Blu-ray player support and possibly others.
20. Changed: The mouse wheel on some horizontal sliders could move the handle in the opposite direction expected.

14.0.138 (02/02/2010)

1. Changed: Improved device description of X_MS_MediaReceiverRegistrar DLNA service for better XBox360 compliance.
2. Changed: DLNA service function responses will always return information in the same order as specified by the service description, aiding compatibility with some controllers.
3. Changed: Revised internals of DLNA server content directory to aid with standards compliance.
4. Changed: Improved DLNA renderer eventing so that it events more variables, making it work better with controllers that depend on this.
5. Fixed: DSP Studio did not work if the audio format from the decoder was 32-bit integer PCM.
6. Changed: If initial graph-building failed to connect user selected audio renderer, the renderer is removed from the graph and reloaded before MC attempts to connect it with DSP Studio filter.
7. Changed: Streamlined graph-building for "AF9015 BDA Filter" television tuner.
8. Fixed: Resampling from very high sample rates to lower sample rates could cause the output to loop on itself.  (Affected Hrx content)

14.0.137 (02/01/2010)

1. Changed: DLNA 'Renderer' option no longer takes a program restart to take effect.
2. Changed: DLNA does a better job of sending bye-bye messages when shutting down servers.
3. Changed: MC will reattempt using the user-selected audio renderer during DSP Studio filter insertion if initial graph-building fails to connect the selected renderer.
4. Fixed: DSP Studio filter was not applied to analog televison that is not in time-shifting mode.
5. Changed: DLNA renderer supports the function SetNextAVTransportURI for controllers that can use it, enabling gapless, cross-fading, etc.
6. NEW: If installed, madVR is made available in MC
7. Fixed: Clipboard could be overwritten with debugging data. (only applies to last couple builds)
8. Changed: Improved DLNA renderer volume and mute support to work with more DLNA controllers.
9. Fixed: Video renderer selection list was not available on the filter selections popup window.
10. Fixed: Adding a new library could show an incorrect error that a library already existed at the selected location.

14.0.136 (01/29/2010)

1. Fixed: Some tooltips would not appear in build 135.
2. Fixed: Library Field Manager dialog would not correctly enforce a minimum height, so controls could overflow.
3. Changed: When starting Media Center with a /Library command line, it no longer loads the previous library before switching to the new library.
4. Changed: Video DSP can be enabled / disabled in Options > General > Advanced > Features > Video DSP. (disabled by default)
5. Fixed: AC3 output in DSP Studio was not accepted by some audio renderers/sound cards.
6. Fixed: DLNA renderer was not properly eventing changes to subscribed controllers, which could cause issues like tracks not advancing.
7. Changed: DLNA servers more nicely handle devices that make multiple event subscription requests with the same URL.
8. Changed: When running Media Center elevated, shell extensions and launcher commands from non-elevated applications can still control Media Center.

Please use this thread for questions or comments about Netflix.  It's still a work in progress.

I can't add new theater view layout on MC client. After restart/reload library, my new theater library views still in MC, but don't show nothing in theater view.. I can describe it more, if necessary.
Like temporary fix I edit this in registry.

Options -> General -> Advanced -> Recent Playing Nows IS checked,
yet when I accidently sync'ed the wrong zone and lost my current Playing Now queue, there were NO "Recent Playing Nows" playlists to be found   ?

Since the latest update (14.0.130) I have had no Album artwork on my IPOD classic. IT siad it didnt have the latest version of Media Centre and would change on the the next Sync. Then when syncing an album i rescently bought, i noticed my Ipod was cleared of album artwork. I looked and it still had the option to use artwork were possible so i am not sure why it hsa gone :-\

Duncan,  Have you tried initializing the Ipod and reloading from scratch.  Every once in a while, my artwork gets messed up (no matter what version of MC 12, 13 or 14) and I initialize and reload.  For me this is not a big deal.  If it isn't for you, you may want to try it.

My PS3 is unable to find the server on my laptop, what can I do, it is the first time I try to set the DLNA up, I choosed the PlayStation 3 DLNA configuration, and renamed it to MS_PS3.

My PS3 has network connection and I can ping it from my laptop

Make sure that DLNA is running on the laptop.  Check all 3 options.

Firewall must be open.  MC DLNA runs on a port in the range of 52100 - 52199.
