20.0.84 (3/16/2015)

1. Changed: Theater View sizes with the high DPI / high scale factor setting.
2. Fixed: Font scaling wasn't working properly on some monitors.
3. NEW: Added MCWS/v1/Playback/AudioPath to get the audio path information during playback.
4. Changed: Lots more dialogs honor the size setting of the program.
5. Fixed: Taskbar right-click buttons weren't working.

20.0.83 (3/13/2015)

1. Fixed: The 'Add Expression' dialog wouldn't resize nicely for high DPI or high scale factors.
2. Changed: Worked on the sizing of DSP Studio when the size factor is high or the monitor is high DPI.
3. NEW: Option "In Over-the-air EPG scan (ATSC only), save programs for channels with empty XMLTV IDs only".  This is useful for people who want to use Over-the-air EPG scan only for certain designated channels.
4. Fixed: Customizing a grouping details view could reset the accompanying grouping view, and vice versa.
5. Fixed: Checbox images in a list didn't scale for Retina / High DPI / large scale factor properly.
6. Fixed: If you created a Smartlist for Last Played is empty and edited it a few times, it would turn wacky.
7. Fixed: The smartlist editing dialog would not be wide enough on high DPI displays (or retina or with a big scale factor).

20.0.82 (3/12/2015)

1. Changed: The search on the experimental Tag window searches both the value and the field (before it only searched the field).
2. Changed: If an image has two rotation tags in the EXIF header, the first value is used instead of the second value (that way we work the same as Windows Explorer).
3. Changed: Updated Japanese translation (thanks Kazuo!).
4. Fixed: JRiver Video Encoder and JRiver Video Decoder filters could not be loaded (had problem with registering with Windows).
5. Fixed: The experimental tag window wouldn't reload visible fields when the view switched.
6. Fixed: Podcasting could download duplicate tracks (only maybe fixed, so testing appreciated).
7. Changed: Added an MCC to toggle the OSD on and off (MCC_SET_OSD_ENABLED = 30025).
8. Fixed: Some WebCam devices and some other video capture devices that do not have hardware compression did not work in Television.
9. NEW: Added MCWS/v1/Library/Import to import a folder.
10. Fixed: Some w64 files did not import/play.
11. NEW: ID3 tags from w64 files are properly imported.
12. Fixed: Playing FLAC+CUE files could result in some tracks being skipped in the recent builds.
13. NEW: Added View > Load / Save View to save and load a set of tabs and splits (experimental -- may not remain).
14. NEW: The experimental Tag Action Window has an 'All Fields' type that can be added.
15. Changed: Added 250% and 300% to the size menu.
16. Changed: The DPI of the display is accounted for so you shouldn't have to pick a big size value if you're running a high DPI display.
17. Fixed: Some analog tuners/capture devces were not properly released after running Television Setup wizard.
18. Fixed: Television setup wizard did not work for Camera type profile (camera-type channel creation would not complete).
19. Changed: Made TheMovieDB image lookups in Theater View ignore the phrase in parenthesis at the end of the title (so Alien (Theatrical Version) will just look at Alien).
20. Fixed: MC could crash during file import in rare circumstances.
21. Changed: EPG loading tool "Load Program Guide..." will allow EPG loading methods that are not associated with any tuner profiles to be used.  This allows the tool to be useful with EPG loading methods set up prior to the introduction of tuner profiles.
22. Changed: Added an "Add" button on "Loading Program Guide..." tool, to add a loading method that is independent of any tuner profile.
23. Changed: Removed "Scan for channels..." link on Television property page as it is no longer needed.
24. Changed: Added a "Delete" button on "Load Program Guide..." tool, to delete a loading method that is independent of any tuner profiles.  The button is disabled if the selected method is associated with any tuner profile.
25. Fixed: In "Load Program Guide", the TV Channel to XMLTV ID mapping list was not updated after "Auto Match" button was clicked.
26. Fixed: When the TV channel to XMLTV ID mapping window was displayed, the auto match routine was not automatically executed (without user clicking the button) in the last several builds.
27. Changed: When Auto Match was automatically executed (i.e. without user clicking the button), MC leaves existing IDs alone even if they do not match the IDs in current EPG data set.
28. Fixed: CD ripping would sometimes fall out of secure mode.

20.0.81 (3/5/2015)

1. NEW: A new MCC (10064) that switches TV to previously played channel.  For local playback only (at least for now).
2. Changed: Live TV button on MCE remote control (or MCC 30002, 0) loads last played TV channel in the current zone, instead of loading last played channel on the first available tuner device type.
3. NEW: The experimental tag window has a 'Visible Fields' type that'll show the visible fields from the current view.
4. Changed: Changed the way EPG profiles are listed on "Load Program Guide" dialog window.
5. Changed: Internal changes to HLS Video Streaming to Gizmo (should not influence playback, testing appreciated).
6. Changed: Added a "Delete" button on the Television property page, to delete unwanted tuner profiles.
7. Fixed: Opening Visualization Studio presets could cause some values to be read incorrectly.
8. Fixed: Visualization could show REMAINING_TIME in a broken format.
9. Changed: A/V sync is maintained more aggressively at the start of video playback.

20.0.80 (3/3/2015)

1. Changed: Revamped "Load program guide..." tool on television property page.
2. Changed: Updated Italian translation file (thanks Matteo).
3. Fixed: Seeking a Linked Zone over Gizmo would cause MC to hang.
4. Fixed: The player evaluating "Playlist Remaining Time" could hang (only maybe fixed, testing appreciated).
5. NEW: Link Timing -- Linked zones can optionally be set to a playback rate so that a zone that plays slower or faster can be corrected (the 'Adjust Link Timing' dialog allows entering a rate).  Thread
6. Fixed: Very short convolution filters would not load properly at all times.

20.0.79 (2/26/2015)

1. NEW: Television tool "Manage Channels" has a "Rescan" button to allow rescan for new channels in a selected tuner type  profile.
2. Fixed: Video Streams in MOV/MP4 files were not reliably detected for more exotic video codecs (ie. DNxHD), resulting in MC treating the file as a audio file.
3. NEW: Select is an available command for videos and TV shows in Theater View.
4. Fixed: Library views could crash.

20.0.78 (2/25/2015)

1. Changed: Removed Last.fm support from Play Doctor (because it was no longer working due to Last.fm changes).
2. NEW: Added a 'Refresh' command to smartlists in Theater View.
3. FIxed: CD drives weren't appearing in build 77.

20.0.77 (2/25/2015)

1. Fixed: Television channel to xmltvID auto matching did not work for DVB (and possibly analog) channels due to channel number in front of name in channel names.
2. Fixed: TV functions crashed in the previous build (hopefully fixed, testing appreciated).
3. Fixed: Analyzing FLAC+CUE files could result in a handle and memory leak.
4. Fixed: Importing FLAC files with both an external and embedded CUE could result in the duration of the last track being wrong.

20.0.76 (2/24/2015)

1. NEW: Television Setup wizard allows users to choose which tuner device to use to perform channel scanning, when such designation is relevant (ATSC, DVB, QAM, Analog Cable, Analog Antenna).
2. Changed: Updated Slovak translation (thanks Peter Lukac).
3. Changed: Updated Japanese translation (thanks Kazuo).
4. NEW: Ten Stars is an edit type for a library field and makes the same type of field as rating, but with 10 stars instead of 5.
5. Fixed: Text visualization components could randomly switch to the wrong text at times.
6. Changed: Updated the FFmpeg version used for file analysis and transcoding.

20.0.75 (2/23/2015)

1. Changed: When television Setup wizard is re-run, MC offers options to clean up existing channels and programs and to reset all settings before proceeding to the setup.
2. NEW: During television subscription set up, an option to choose which fields to make comparison with, in order to determine whether an existing recording matches the program to be recorded.
3. Fixed: Television recordings did not get all metadata imported in the last couple of builds.
4. Fixed: Importing CUE files which reference more than one media file could show the wrong duration on the last track of each file.
5. Changed: Updated Japanese translation (thanks Kazuo!).
6. NEW: Quick Find Cover Art supports the filenaming [Artist] - [Album].
7. Fixed: The options dialog listed an option for Sound Recorder in Options > Encoding.

20.0.74 (2/19/2015)

1. Changed: Additional date metadata tags are read from AVI files.
2. NEW: Added Options > Tree & View > Advanced > Enable OSD to allow turning off the OSD.
3. Changed: Added a popup message box when HDHomeRun tuner is selected to scan for television channels in Television Setup wizard, that one should setup firewall to allow Media Center network access through the firewall.
4. Changed: Added additional instruction message in Television Setup wizard, when the device list for CableCARD tuners is empty, that one should setup firewall and turn on "Use Media Network to share this library and enable DLNA" option.
5. Fixed: TheMovieDB image lookup was not working anymore.
6. Fixed: A CUE parsing issue where the last track would not work because the playback range was parsing incorrectly if the CUE file spanned multiple tracks.
7. Fixed: Rotten Tomatoes wasn't downloading cover art.

20.0.73 (2/17/2015)

1. Fixed: If one (re-)ran television Setup wizard from the Television property page, some settings set on the wizard were not transferred to the property page.
2. Changed: Red October updated to LAV Filters 0.64 (Hardware Acceleration improvements, bugfixes).
3. Changed: The intelligent number handling in the string sorter understands commas in numbers now.
4. Fixed: Starting video playback could hang.

1. Fixed: Hauppauge WinTV PVR 350 (and maybe 250 too) analog television tuner did not work.
2. Fixed: Reading a SACD ISO with empty data packets could cause a crash.

5. NEW: Added a 'Total Discs' field to the library, which is updated from MP3, MP4, and FLAC files.
6. Changed: Updated German translation (thanks Bytestar).

Looks like I have some testing to do.

The only difference is that it'll sync up faster after start of playback, the long term sync should not be affected.

Confirmed: I'm still seeing the two frame variance with madVR  (typically a delay) though it does seem to sync up faster now.

3. NEW: Option "In Over-the-air EPG scan (ATSC only), save programs for channels with empty XMLTV IDs only".  This is useful for people who want to use Over-the-air EPG scan only for certain designated channels.]

Bravo! Bravo!

A bump for a UI problem.  The Keywords tag selector window thing extends below the bottom of the screen if you have a lot of keywords.  This happened sometime between version .50 and version .70.  Makes it very difficult to select keywords that are off the bottom of the screen.

Split Size and Fonts discussion.

Please don't start discussions in the build threads.

This happens to me with my Country field all the time.

I still have this issue when I want to sync my phone (Nokia 822 - Windows Phone 8.1, I assume it is like a MTP device):
- plug the phone, wait
- shows as devices in MC (one for the phone and another for the SD card on the phone)
- I click on the device name
- nothing happens - the top of the screen doesn't update and doesn't say "Working"
- click anywhere else in the tree (e.g. audio)
- click on the device name again - voila it says "Working" and then it syncs correctly

seems to be a sort problem in standard view

I have a problem with editing a smartlist with [Last Played]:
When editing the smartlist it looks good:
The rule "Last Played is not in the last 14 days" seems to be accepted.
(first attached picture)

After apply and exiting the dialog and reopen for edit the rule has changed to:
"Last played is in the last 14d"
(second attached picture)


Could this be related to this change:

6. Fixed: If you created a Smartlist for Last Played is empty and edited it a few times, it would turn wacky.
