http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=74442.018.0.184 (5/14/2013)
1. Fixed: AC3 encoding of output was not working nicely with video playback.
2. Changed: Audio Path will better show when a padded bitdepth (like 24-bit inside a 32-bit container) is in use.
3. Fixed: Bitstreaming of audio during video playback was not working in some cases.
18.0.183 (5/13/2013)
1. Fixed: Audio Path was not correctly reporting the output bitdepth in some cases due to the new audio bitdepth system.
2. Changed:
Removed WaveOut output plugin (it was a legacy mode only needed on (very) old versions of Windows that are no longer supported).
3. Changed:
Merged 'WASAPI - Event Style' and 'WASAPI' into a single output plugin. If you required 'WASAPI', you may need to reconfigure your audio output settings.
4. Changed: ASIO supports encoding the output as AC3 using DSP Studio > Output Format (requires downstream AC3 decoder or you will hear white noise).
5. Fixed: When scanning for Set Top Box channels, cable channels 3 and 4 were not presented as possible channels on which the set top box fed signal to capture device.
18.0.182 (5/10/2013)
1. Fixed: ASIO playback of PCM was not working in build 181.
18.0.181 (5/10/2013)
1.
NEW: Revised audio bitdepth system.
Details and discussion 2. Fixed: The playerbar in Display View would not reliably reappear after hiding unless the display was clicked.
3. Fixed: Some m4a and alac files would not import or play because of a mismatched sample count in the mp4 STTS header. We now ignore this error since it shouldn't impact playback performance.
4.
NEW: DLNA image slideshow when pushing an image playlist to a renderer. Follows slideshow logic that MC uses including the image duration in Options->Images->Slide Show Duration.
18.0.180 (5/8/2013)
1. Fixed: Theater View remote focus could shift incorrectly when using the on screen keyboard.
2. Changed: Switched
YouTube's view order in Theater View so that 'Search' is on the left so it's a single arrow away instead of at the end of the roller.
3. Changed: Updated German language file (
thanks Bytestar).
4. Changed: Updated Polish translation (
thanks Janusz Grzybek).
5. Changed: Czech language translation updated (
thanks Johnny B).
6. Fixed: Digital television channel scanning was broken in the last few builds.
7. Changed: The font picker dialog in Media Center now filters out fonts that support vertical text placement (like vertically aligned Japanese characters) since MC doesn't support drawing those.
8. Changed: Made some tweaks in
CableCARD television support.
18.0.179 (5/7/2013)
1. Fixed: Some animated areas of the program like 2D visualizations were not redrawing properly in build 178.
2. Fixed: The mouse controls could become unavailable with certain types of displays in Display View with build 178.
3. Fixed: Using the popup expression editor from an in-place expression editor in options could lead to a crash.
4. Fixed: When deleting an image from the library, the tooltip for the image could obscure the delete confirmation dialog.
5. Changed:
3GA files are treated like AAC / MP4 audio files, so they can import, play, and tag.
6. Changed: Updated Chinese language files (tranditional and simplified) (
thanks kelijun).
7. Fixed: If a large Photoshop image failed to load, it could cause a crash.
8.
Faster: Decoding a PSD image saved as RGB (8-bit or 16-bit color) is much faster.
18.0.178 (5/6/2013)
1. Fixed: MC would crash recording television in TS format in the last couple of builds.
2. Changed: Updated Korean language file (
thanks to Junghwan).
3. Changed: Revised the window transparency system used by the player bar in Display View to help performance and fix a bug where it could get stuck redrawing and not hide.
18.0.177 (5/1/2013)
1.
NEW: Added Theater View support for SHOUTcast (add using Options > Theater View > Add...) (it's recommended that you reset file info templates for the best experience using Options > Theater View > Customize file info panel... > Manage... > Reset All Templates To Default).
2. Fixed: Focus could shift unexpectedly to the list when navigating some rollers in Theater View with build 176.
3. Changed: Added a new stock field 'Popularity' (string that supports flexible values; web radio uses it to put something like '3123 listeners' in).
4. Fixed: The Theater View file info template option to 'Hide when empty' was not working for some fields like number of plays that showed 'never played' when empty.
5. Changed: Theater View's Playing Now shows artist backdrops when playing web radio stations that contain ICY metadata.
6. Fixed: PNG images that used 1-bit or 4-bit palettes were not loading properly.
7. Fixed: Launching a video from Explorer when MC was not running could crash.
8. NEW: Added a
Polish translation (thanks to Janusz Grzybek)9. Changed: Updated all language files to have the latest strings from the source code.
10. Fixed: Netflix movies were getting cut off on the right side.
11. Fixed: VCD video would not play.
18.0.176 (4/29/2013)
1. Changed: When there's a 3d drawing error, the error text will not appear for a little while so that coming out of madVR exclusive, which could require a reload of a 3d device, will look cleaner.
2. Changed: If Theater View fails to load and reloads, it will stop trying to reload after 3 reloads in 30 seconds (to avoid looping forever if something isn't working).
3. Changed:
Red October will use DXVA Copy Back with nVidia hardware when possible instead of CUVID when using madVR (
http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=80258.0 ).
4. Fixed: When returning to Theater View, sometimes the input focus could be unexpectedly shifted from the list to the roller.
5. Fixed: Digital television could crash on stopping.
6. Fixed:
Ceton (and other CableCARD) television tuners did not have color controls.
7. Fixed:
CD Labeler was crashing.
18.0.175 (4/26/2013)
1.
NEW: ASIO output supports DSD bitstreaming using DoP.
2. Fixed: Some videos during conversion would not detect the end of stream properly, so could stop a few seconds early.
3. Changed: Removed the safety valve in the video converter that would stop a conversion if it stalled for too long (Red October should make it unnecessary, and it's possible the valve triggered in cases where it shouldn't).
3. Changed: When multiple optical media disks are present, Theater View now shows the first one available rather than none.
4. Fixed: Queued files for a data disc burn could not be seen because "Show files in subfolders" button was not available.
5.
NEW: Media network, add album art for xbox 360 videos.
6. Changed: Media network, fix xbox 360 conversion crashes.
7. Fixed: Crash could occur when clicking the "Rip Tracks" button in the CD header view.
8. Changed: When ripping audio from multiple drives, the 'Details' button in the Action Window jumps to the first drive instead of showing an overview view for all drives (which didn't have the same functionality so could be a little confusing).
18.0.174 (4/25/2013)
1. Fixed: The progress shown for an individual video file during conversion was not displaying correctly.
2. Fixed: Image playback from Library Server was not working in the last few builds.
3. Fixed: If the computer slowed down too much during concurrent video conversions, it could stop a conversion early.
4. Fixed: Encoding to ALAC could crash in some cases.
5. Fixed: On the Import wizard, clicking cancel when it recommended not using an empty auto-import folder list would leave the wizard in a strange state.
6. Changed: Updated German language file (thanks Bytestar).
18.0.173 (4/24/2013)
1. Fixed: Pressing Pause button while television was playing in non-time-shifting mode put television in partially paused state (audio continued to play while video was paused).
2. Fixed: CUE files that contained URLs in comments could lead to a crash.
3. Changed: When saving a JPEG with a high quality (90 or higher quality, which is used for cover art saving), no chrominance subsampling will be used.
4. Fixed: Horizontal scrolling in the Playing Now > Overview view was not working nicely.
5. Fixed: Long M4A files (over 10 hours) could show as 'Live' or with the wrong or empty duration in the library.
6. Changed: MC no longer overrules custom video renderer selection when playing wtv/dvr-ms files.
7. Changed: Flicking images from side to side with the mouse will no longer show the playerbar.
8. Fixed: Starting a playlist of images + music playing could show a "failed to load image" for the first couple images.
18.0.172 (4/22/2013)
1. Fixed: The launcher didn't have the full program name embedded in it, so file associations could show they were associated with "Media" instead of "JRiver Media Center 18".
2. Fixed: If a DLNA device requested metadata for a file that's no longer in the library (or never was in the library), it could crash.
3. Changed: When converting a video file, aggregates with names like 'Index.bdmv' and 'Video_TS.vob' will use the name field for building the new filename instead of preserving the existing filename.
4. Changed: Video conversion could stop early if the encoder paused for a while; now it waits much longer before deciding something went wrong.
18.0.171 (4/19/2013)
1. Fixed: A call to JRWorker.exe to import a file (used for video) could fail when the video was referenced in a playlist.
2. Changed: Updated Chinese language file (
thanks kelijun).
3. Changed: Playing an image from a mixed media type list will play only the images.
4. Changed: Handheld sync displays more accurate progress and time estimates in cases where the upload, conversion, or download is running much slower than the other concurrent stages.
5. Changed: Updated traditional Chinese language file (by directly converting from the simplified Chinese file).
6. Fixed:
Hulu playback was not working.
7. Fixed: In some cases, the row of times at the top of the Theater View television guide could stop updating as you scrolled right.
8. Fixed: When switching to a television channel of a different tuner type (for example ATSC to cable), the confirmation popup window (if the user has configured to show it) might be shown twice.
9. Changed: Updated German language file (
thanks Bytestar).
10. Faster: Improved performance of dragging the thumbnail size slider.
11. Changed: Red October uses
LAV filters version 0.56.2 (
thanks to nevcairiel).
12. Fixed: MC could crash if user tried to stop a television playback immediately after starting to play a channel.
13. Changed: Television engine ignores Stop request if it has not finished starting to play a channel.
14. Changed: If the program is configured to use a cover art folder that is not available or writable, the default cover art folder will be used for that run of the program (the same validation runs when setting a folder and won't allow you to set a non-writable folder).
15. Changed: If the program is configured to save art next to files, it will nicely handle cases when sidecar artwork is not writable on the file system (by falling back to the cover art folder).
16. Changed:
DLNA: Allow playlist manipulation in conjunction with setNextAVTransportURI.
