http://files.jriver.com/mediacenter/MediaCenter150136.exe

15.0.136 (10/19/2010)

1. Fixed: Comboboxes and drop lists could be positioned too narrow on some dialogs (only applies to last few builds).
2. Changed: List editor does not auto-accept when selecting a suggestion or drop list value (requires double-enter, but also allows customizing a selection)
3. Fixed: It was not possible to tab out of the list editor (in-place editing or Action Window editing).
4. Fixed: When failing to load a connected library using the 'Connect To Library' dialog, the program could crash.
5. Changed: Improved detection of Android devices (folders \DCIM\100ANDRO or \Android on an SD card will trigger Android code)
6. Changed: Added several new Android phones with images (please help us identify additional Androids: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=60070)
7. Changed: Added right-click 'Info Dump' command for handheld devices to aid with debugging.
8. Fixed: Resetting all devices in Options > Handheld would not reset user conversion settings.
9.  New: The Library Server conversion caching system now handles video as well as audio.
10. Fixed: Options > Theater View > Advanced > Show home button was not working.


15.0.135 (10/18/2010)

1. Fixed: The edit suggestion system did not allow changing capitalization.
2. Fixed: Changing an edit-style option would close options with an enter key instead of accepting the option change.
3. Changed: Before showing the "No handheld available" message when clicking Action Window > Sync Handheld, the program will no another search for attached devices.
4. Changed: A drive-style handheld (Android) will only show files in the configured sync paths instead of searching the entire device for files.
5. Changed: Revised edit popup suggestion system so suggestions are not selected by default, but instead require down + enter or tab to select.
6. NEW: Pressing Shift+Enter when a suggestion popup is showing will accept the first suggestion and close the suggestion popup.
7. Changed: To play search results from the search box, Ctrl+Enter is the shortcut (previously was Shift+Enter).
8. Fixed: The handheld engine could display a warning about removing tracks already in the transfer about sync mode tracks.
9. Changed: Conversion cache options moved from the 'handheld options' page to the 'file location' options page and generalized for handheld transfers, library server, etc.
10. NEW: Conversions on Library Server now utilize the conversion cache system which uses a stack file if available, otherwise a stack file is created.
11. NEW: Add a "small artwork" option to DLNA advanced options that will present all artwork as 120x120 (required by some devices). Only implemented for stacked icons in this build.
12. NEW: DLNA server. Serve specific generic container icons for Audio, Images, and Video.

15.0.134 (10/15/2010)

1. NEW: Added f4v to supported file types.
2. Changed: At startup, registering for a Library Server access key is done in a low priority background thread instead of the main thread.
3. Internal: Improved logging of server requests, and removed unnecessary logging output.
4. Fixed: When resetting logging, an error could be reported even if the log was actually reset.
5. Changed: Updated Last.fm scrobbling to use the final v2.0 web service (was using the beta v2.0 web service during v2.0 development).
6. Faster: Numerous optimizations to make the new list editor and edit suggestion systems faster.
7. Fixed: When playing an MP3 purchased from the Performer Store, the store could be unnecessarily loaded after playing the track.
8. Faster: Starting an in-place edit is faster.
9. Changed: Renamed DSP Studio phantom center option from "Move center to side speakers" to "Move center to front L/R".

15.0.133 (10/14/2010)

1. NEW: Library Server clients can delete or recycle server files (changes take effect when committing changes to server).
2. Changed: Library Server will only accept changes from library server clients when authentication is enabled on the server.
3. Changed: Video buffering message is displayed on OSD as well as status window, so it can be seen when video is played fullscreen.
4. Fixed: Keywords could be uploaded to Flickr incorrectly.
5. Changed: Editing of numeric fields (like Track #) will use a simple edit instead of a combobox with suggestions.
6. Changed: Popup suggestions are not shown when editing a field until there are only a manageable number of possible matches (normally after typing two or three letters).
7. Changed: When using the list editor, selecting a value combobox list or selecting a suggestion when typing will immediately add the value to the list below.
8. Fixed: DVD playback over DLNA had problems with some discs which resulted in visible macroblocks during playback.
9. Fixed: MC did not return failure code from JRiver audio engine when DirectShow graph-building produced a partial graph without connecting JRiver audio renderer.
10. Fixed: Some lists could appear blank (i.e. remote control configuration).
11. Changed: Updated German language file (thanks Bytestar).
12. Faster: Large Podcasts (with 1000+ episodes) are much faster.
13. Fixed: Facebook photo upload.
14. Changed: Improved JRiver URL Reader filter's handling of video buffering.

15.0.132 (10/12/2010)

1. Changed: Read-only library error from build 130 is automatically corrected if found.
2. Changed: Revised how up / down keys navigate in conjunction with in-place editing suggestions to make it easier to use up and down to navigate a list. (use Shift+Down to open drop lists)

15.0.131 (10/11/2010)

1. Fixed: iTunes export could fail in some cases.
2. Fixed: On a fresh install, the program would incorrectly open the library in read-only mode.
3. Fixed: The first item in the new list editor would incorrectly in-place edit on click.
4. Changed: Updated Spanish translation.
5. Fixed: Downloading in Performer store was broken in previous build.
6. Fixed: Pagination was not working properly in WebPlay / WebRemote.
7. Fixed: Reading of the TDRL ID3v2 tag was not working properly, causing dates to appear as 1905.
8. Fixed: Bullet marks would sometimes appear in the Wikipedia movie data in lists of actors, directors, producers, etc.
9. Changed: When connecting to a DLNA server, a timeout of 60 seconds is used for each 1000 file request instead of 10 seconds (10 seconds was too short for some servers, causing load failures).
10. NEW: When playing m4a audio (including ALAC) in DirectShow engine, MC will install some DirectShow filters when necessary to facilitate smoother playback.
11. Changed: Search suggestions are accepted with the tab key and the top match is selected by default. (enter only works after arrowing up / down so that type+enter will never search for something other than what was typed)
13. Changed: Inline auto-complete is disabled when popup suggestions are showing.
14. Changed: Connecting to a DLNA server via file->library->connect to library now asks for images and video as well as audio. This works connecting to another instance of MC and also to WMP. YMMV depending on the server.

15.0.130 (10/8/2010)

1. NEW: Added Ringtone Maker (available with Right-click > Library Tools > Ringtone... or Tools > Advanced Tools > Ringtone...).
2. NEW: Added DSP Studio > Output Format > Move center to side speakers option for configurations with no center speaker.
3. Changed: Silent files will analyze to a replay gain of 0 instead of +51 dB.
4. Fixed: In rare cases, the audio resampler could introduce a tick when first starting.

15.0.129 (10/7/2010)

1. Fixed: Scrolling down in a non-focused list, then clicking could scroll up a little (only applies to build 128).
2. Fixed: Clicking a suggestion with the mouse when in-place editing did not work.
3. Changed: Multi-selection list field editing allows ordering if all selected files have the same list of items.
4. NEW: DLNA server add Artist to yet another DLNA field.
5. Changed: DLNA server, always serve album art if asked. If the thumbnail doesn't exist, serve a generic icon.

15.0.128 (10/6/2010)

1. Fixed: Minor issues filling audio properties (32000Hz and other uncommon sample rates were not filled, 11025Hz were imported as 110250Hz, etc.) when importing Windows Media files.
2. Fixed: Wiki web links within Performer store use the new and improved wikipedia artist/album lookup.
3. SDK: Added web service function Library/Values to get a list of artists, albums, etc.
4. NEW: When typing in a combobox, a suggestion popup will appear (similar to the suggestion popup used by the main search control).
5. Fixed: Thumbnails weren't showing up for Netflix instant queue when connected to a library server.
6. Internal: Reworked internal eventing system used by JRiver user interface controls (should be internal change only, but please report any issues).

15.0.127 (10/5/2010)

1. Fixed: In some cases, cancelling auto-import could take a while.
2. Fixed: The option to automatically delete a single television recording would not work reliably with times over 15 days.
3. Changed: Connecting to a DLNA server no longer requires that 'DLNA Controller' be enabled for detection of servers.
4. Changed: When connecting to a library server using the 'Search...' button on the Connect to Library dialog, it is no longer necessary to click 'Connect' a second time.
5. Changed: Connections to a library server will be automatically reestablished on restart of the program (use Library > Disconnect from Library to disconnect).
6. Changed: When importing videos, audio properties BitDepth, Channels, and SampleRate (on the audio stream) are filled whenever possible.
7. Changed: Updated new list-field editor to be more keyboard friendly and to require fewer clicks to add values.
8. Changed: When adding list values to a list that is not sorted, new values are added at the end.
9. Changed: When adding multiple list values at once (by typing for example a;b;c) the typed order will be preserved if the current list of values is empty or unsorted.

15.0.126 (10/4/2010)

1. NEW: When syncing a handheld from a library server, transcoding of audio files takes place on the server rather than the client.
2. Fixed: Podcast updating could cause a crash.
3. NEW: Added "show caption resources" option to the DLNA server advanced options. Needed for some devices to show subs. Needs to be disabled for other devices to prevent crashing of the renderer.
4. Changed: For the DLNA server, album art served is independent of the existence of an image file (will use thumbs).

15.0.125 (10/1/2010)

1. Fixed: Export to iTunes could crash on some iTunes errors.
2. NEW: New interface for tagging list-type fields that supports ordering (right-click to get recently added tags, and other commands).
3. NEW: DLNA server, add more fields (if asked by the renderer) to upnp file directory info (channels, sample rate, etc).
4. Changed: Subtitle presentation order for a specific subtitle resource when the "present subtitles" advanced option is used.

Analyze Audio bug reported in .132 thread still present.

Multiple threads stall at various percentages of processing.  MC continues to churn CPU time but with no apparent processing taking place.  STOP and restart of analyze process required to complete the process.

Files being analyzed - FLAC.

What further information can I provide?

Please email me a log (matt at jriver dot com) showing the stall.

Also, could you try APE or MP3 files as a test?

Thanks.

BIG thanks for redoing the editing, popup suggestions etc.! So far it seems just perfect the way it is now.

The arrow, then double-enter solution for tagging suggestions is perfect.

Same here. Had the same issues via 132 and only tried FLAC files. Haven't done any analysis in 136 yet...but it sounds like the bug is still there. I had a couple of nasty freezes in 132...especially when lots of files are being queued. Had to do a hard shutdown at least twice....

Doesn't seem to have any particular pattern - except to say that all of my FLAC file output comes from either dbPowerAmp or EZ-CD Extractor....which have been in use here for years with no issues.....

Will try some fresh MP3 files as a test....

Dragging images from explorer to a folder in MC (Drives & devices/my computer view) and selecting 'copy' when dropping imports both source image and copy of it.  I think that only copy of the image should be imported in this case.

As I reported earlier in the 122 thread, MC crashes when it tries to download the artist background images for the Theatre View but the internet connection is off or not available. 
This is happening on a fresh install of Win XP SP3. I tested some old builds and found that build 073 doesn't crash, but all later builds have this problem.

I've tried to use new version 15.0.136. When I navigate audio on DLNA TV, list of audio files generation (FLAC or MP3) is very slow (18s). I will return to version .122. Navigation through folders is good. :-\
Is it JReiver issue or my bad setup.

I am receiving a C++ runtime error when I attempt to stream video to an xbox 360 with conversion. This happens with all conversion options (WMV, MP4) and the source format is a 720p mkv file

Skinning still fades to nearly completely transparent.

Podcasts have some fun.  I download a podcast and I might be able to transfer it to a handheld.  Sometimes.  It usually tells me the file isn't there.  I can then go and find the file and it still will not transfer.  If I then drag and drop the file from explorer it works.

1. In pane view, if I search (in the search box) for all audio files where Composer is empty and then add composer information via the tagging action window pane or tag composer directly in the file list, the Composer pane is not updated (it still shows only Unassigned and New Composer, not the composer names I have added to files still visible in the file list).

2. When editing in the file list a list type field, choosing rename and entering the field delimiter in an item does not spilt the item into two items, i.e. renaming the item "Jagger, Richards" to "Jagger; Richards" results in one (1) item with just "Jagger; Richards".

MC now connects to a Qnap TS119 using DLNA without errors.

this is a bug:

Manipulating tags in the tag sub-window... if I want to change more than 100 tracks at the same time... entering a value... instead of hitting <ENTER> at the end of the value I hit <TAB> to move on to the next value line... it doesn't change the value, just moves to the next line... if I hit <ENTER> it asks me correctly if I want to change the value in over 100 tracks... with <TAB> it doesn't (below 101 tracks it works correctly)

thanks
