1. Fixed: Audio problem with
Hauppauge WintTV HD PVR device.
2. Fixed: Bass management was not handling moving bass to the LFE channel properly.
3. Optimized: The low-pass and high-pass filters used for Bass Management, JRSS, etc. are about 38% faster.
4. Changed: A confirmation is shown when doing an 'Unstack' command on more than one stacked file (has 'Don't show this message again' box).
5. Changed:
Auto-import will attempt to silently reconnect to any disconnected network drives before flagging a file as 'missing'.
6. Fixed: Ripping could show an 'Unknown encoder error' in rare cases. (hopefully fixed, feedback appreciated)
7. Changed: When viewing a file grouping, the 'Date Imported' will show the most recent import date of any file in the group instead of the average import date.
8. Changed: Added the 'Add View' command back to the tree right-click menu for a library view.
9. Changed: Putting the system to sleep will not stop playback automatically. (system will still allow a manual deep sleep (S3) while playing, but Media Center will prevent an automatic sleep)
10. Fixed: Some types of searches would not preserve the sequence number properly.
11. Changed: The 'Rename, Move & Copy Files' dialog auto-sizes columns on load and resize.
12. Changed: DLNA, Advanced options. If "present subtitle resources" is not checked subtitle resources will not be presented in the Content Directory under ANY condition, even if explicitly asked for. Prevents hard resets on some renderers.
13. NEW: Added DVB-T frequency table for
Greece. Thanks to Arbiter for providing the info.
14. Changed: Ignore anything past the first 4 digits in a
FLAC vorbis DATE tag.
15.0.67 (6/25/2010)
1. Changed: Updated
Japanese translation (thanks to KANEY).
2. NEW:
Bass management in DSP Studio > Output Format allows specifying a bass routing mode of remove, move, or copy.
3. Changed: Bass management uses a 24 dB/octave lowpass for creating redirected bass (previously used a 12 db/octave slope).
4. Changed: Tuned JRSS mixing level used when creating a LFE channel.
5. Changed: The previously selected file in Theater View > Playing Now > List will no longer be drawn bold if the list is not focused.
6. NEW:
AVI videos can be streamed from Library Server using "JRiver URL Reader" filter, so one does not have to wait for the entire file to be downloaded before playback starts.
7. Changed: Improved messaging of import when it's importing a large library as it, by design, works in batches of 10,000 files.
8. NEW: Added Output Format subwoofer crossover choice "Silence (use Room Correction or other DSP to fill)".
9. Changed: Made the 'Output Format' DSP a two-column layout with more verbose explanation of settings.
10. Fixed: Closing the program with Media Server running could stop playback in attached DLNA / Library Server zones.
11. NEW: Preliminary .srt and .sub
subtitle support for the DLNA server. The subtitle file should be the same name as the original video file in the same path with either a .srt or .sub extension depending on what your renderer supports. Tested working with Popcorn hour. Needs more testing. The number of renderers that support this seem limited.
15.0.66 (6/24/2010)
1. Fixed:
DLNA video conversion works now - was broken.
2. Changed: Improved the ordering of '
Bass Management' effects chain in 'Room Correction' DSP.
3. Changed: The
'Tone' Room Correction tool plays the tone adjusted by all other adjustments. (previously played full amplitude, unadjusted tone)
4. Fixed: 'Bass Management' settings were not properly persisting between sessions.
5. Changed: Improved Bass Management high-pass / bass redirection filters to offer higher quality. (done as two independent intersecting filters to allow curve tuning on each)
6. Fixed: MC would crash when it failed to convert certain audio formats.
15.0.65 (6/23/2010)
1. Changed: Playback prevents automatic
system sleep, but does not disable a full manual sleep (S3).
2. Changed: Putting the system to sleep manually will stop any playback.
3. NEW: DLNA servers allow selection of a
video conversion mode.
4. Changed: When closing Options with the 'X' at the top right, the save / discard message has a 'Always use this answer' checkbox.
5. Changed: The Browse... button in auto-import folder list allows typing a folder name.
6. Changed: When typing a folder name in a Browse folder dialog, the tree will auto-synchronize with the typed path.
7. Fixed: With a fresh library, the automatic import countdown in the Action Window could run even when manually picking 'Import...' from the menu.
8. Fixed: Doing a 'Restore Library' and only restoring the settings would not work properly.
9. Changed: After restoring settings during a 'Restore Library', the success message informs the user to restart the program for setting changes to take effect.
10. Fixed: When saving a file with encoding in Media Editor, a temporary WAV file could be left behind.
11. Changed: Cross-over used for LFE channel during JRSS mixing uses a 24db/octave slope. (previously used a lesser slope)
12. Fixed: Library Server, client, and JRiver URL Reader filter did not handle streaming of files larger than 2 GB correctly.
13. NEW: Added '
Bass Management' section to DSP Studio > Room Correction.
14. Changed: External dependencies such as lame, gogo, ogg, mpc, and ffmpeg are now silently installed on demand into AppData to avoid UAC prompts.
15. Fixed: Closing a dialog while a combobox was open could cause a crash.
15.0.64 (6/21/2010)
1. Changed: More improvements to
image conversion system used by DLNA, WebPlay, etc.
2. Fixed: When starting playback, album art could be loaded twice instead of only once.
3. Fixed: Playing YouTube video in Theater View did not work, causing MC to trigger downloading the video outside of MC.
4. Optimized: Starting playback with a Library Server client is faster when converting to MP3.
5. NEW: Gizmo pauses playback when a phone call arrives, and unpauses when the call is finished.
6. NEW: Gizmo holds a partial wake lock during playback to prevent the phone from going to sleep or from turning off the data connection.
7. NEW: Improved Gizmo image playback.
8. NEW: Added
video conversion options for Library Server clients. (still a work in progress)
15.0.63 (6/17/2010)
1. Fixed: DLNA playback of images with conversion enabled would not honor EXIF rotation.
2. NEW: DLNA image conversion is done in such a way that a device will not know the image is being converted -- full content length provided, ranged requests supported, etc. (should make image conversion work for all DLNA devices)
3. Internal: Library Server, MCWS, and DLNA server code for handling media files and conversion merged.
15.0.62 (6/17/2010)
1. NEW: Added
caching layer for media file serving to Library Server so requesting the same file multiple times in a short time frame won't require multiple analysis or conversion processes.
2. NEW: Added
Library Server client option to convert images.
3. NEW: When using WebPlay / Gizmo, images are converted to a lower resolution.
4. Changed: When playing images from Library Server, the previous / next caching was not working nicely.
15.0.61 (6/16/2010)
1. Changed: Improvements to hardware accelerated image playback.
15.0.60 (6/15/2010)
1. Changed:
Updated DCRaw to latest (v9.02).
2. Optimized: Search optimizer introduced in build 57 better weighs the evaluation time of calculated fields vs regular fields to aid search performance.
3. Changed: Sharing
recorded television over Library Server no longer requires additional configuration of white-list share paths
4. Changed: Backup, Restore, and Clear Library commands are disabled when connected to a Library Server.
5. Changed: Replaced 'Search For Media Servers' with '
Connect to Library...' in Library menu.
6. Changed: When connected to a library, the 'Connect to Library...' command is replaced by a 'Disconnect from Library' command.
7. Changed: Added new command '
Sync Changes with Library Server' to Library menu to allow manual sync of client changes. (no longer use 'Sync Library...' command -- that is for downloading a library and playlists from a server)
8. Changed: Simplified the 'Connect to Library...' dialog so there's only one choice for connecting to a Library Server.
9. NEW:
Image playback is hardware accelerated, providing smoother visuals when zooming and scrolling. [experimental]
10. NEW: Image playback draws a pixel-perfect overlay when zooming and scrolling stop (most noticeable on systems with low supported texture sizes or when zooming in on huge images)
15.0.59 (6/14/2010)
1. Changed: Updated German language file (thanks Bytestar).
2. Changed: Updated Theater View News for better support of The Onion, Comedy Central Jokes, BBC, Interact, etc.
3. Fixed: Big endian TIFF files could have the incorrect dimensions listed in the database.
4. Changed: Better (hopefully) way of obtaining video dimensions in JRWorker.
5. Fixed: Trouble switching channels with some DVB-T television devices.
6. Changed: In digital television, extra output pins of MPEG-2 Demultiplexer filter are deleted instead of being rendered to NULL renderer.
7. Changed: DLNA container type for videos to try and get it working for some TV's that don't see them. Needs testing to make sure it doesn't mess up devices that currently work.
8. Changed: Added an approximate size to DLNA images when converting as some renderers need to know the size in the content directory or they won't try to display the image.
