24.0.25 (5/7/2018)
1. Fixed: The file browser wasn't working in a few places (i.e. Languages->Browse Translations Folder)
2. Fixed: Menuing problems, especially on multiple monitor setups where menus were showing randomly or in the wrong location. Also after using Mac accessibility 'zoom' commands, the menuing became unstable.
3. Changed: Removed the non-Mac standard '+' symbol after the Command symbol '⌘' in menus, e.g. we now show '⌘C' for copy instead of '⌘+C' for a menu shortcut.
4. Changed: Radio Paradise playback only shows the current track and then adds more tracks as playback advances. It also obscures the filenames.
5. Fixed: Rename, Move, & Copy tool did not work properly with SACD ISO files.
6. Fixed: Audio sidecar was not turned on for the mode "Save in sidecar if internal tagging is not supported" for audio types with plugins that did not support internal tagging (for example DFF).
7. Fixed: Playlists with Radio Paradise or other streaming url's were not uploading to Dr. Who correctly. Also lowered the Dr. Who track minimum to one (used to be five).
8. Fixed: Encoding FLAC files in 64-bit Media Center would produce barely compressed files, instead of the expected compression.
9. Fixed: Sidecars for non-video files were not deleted along with the media files.
10. Changed: When deleting individual tracks in an SACD iso file, all other tracks are deleted as well, instead of leaving them in the library with missing file error.
11. Changed: Updated the Modern Cards skins with work by Glynor (thanks!).
12. Changed: Radio Paradise playback starts faster (and then loads subsequent tracks once playback starts).
24.0.20 (4/30/2018)
1. Fixed. Playback of video files in High Sierra after the 2018-01 security update.
24.0.19 (4/27/2018)
1. Fixed: New fft code wouldn't run on OSX <= 10.9
24.0.18 (4/24/2018)
1. Fixed: Font Outlines/Shadows were erroneously drawn offset to the bottom.
2. NEW: Text edit boxes now have a more convenient way to add Latin characters with diacritics. Press and hold a letter key and a list of choices with diacritical versions for that letter is shown to choose from.
3. Changed: Updated FFmpeg to version 4.0, used for file analysis, transcoding and video playback.
4. Fixed: PGS subtitles in MKV files did not always work.
5. Fixed: Seeking to EOF on non-Mac filesystems could fail. Fixes tagging dsf files on exfat filesystems, probably other issues as well.
6. Changed: Optimized Video rendering image uploading for better performance and reliability.
7. Changed: Reverted compiler to XCode 9.2. XCode 9.3 produced packages that wouldn't run on OSX 10.8 (probably 10.7 as well).
24.0.16 (4/17/2018)
1. Fixed: Cmd-K for entering special characters wasn't working, it would either leave a gap in text or crash.
2. Fixed: Media Center crashed with HDTracks and certain other aif format files on import.
24.0.15 (04/13/2018)
1. Fixed: DSP spectrum analyzer freezes up.
24.0.13 (02/11/2018)
1. Fixed: Importing or tagging most images caused immediate crash.
24.0.12 (02/10/2018)
1. Fixed: Non-Root users on Mac couldn't send WOL packets.
2. NEW: Added support for setting an image as the desktop background.
3. Fixed: Removed unsupported print commands from menus.
4. NEW: Much faster FFT code for places where spectrum analysis is used.
5. Fixed: Removed a video call that could crash MC under rare circumstances.
24.0.2 (02/03/2018)
1. NEW: First MC24 build for Mac

Interesting. Why is the default Skin on the Mac version ModernCards White?
I intentionally didn't do the skin changes to that one because I thought it was much more rarely used and it would give people who wanted the "pure" skin a choice, but it appears to be the default on Mac (or, at least, that's what my new install just got).

3. Changed: Removed the non-Mac standard '+' symbol after the Command symbol '⌘' in menus, e.g. we now show '⌘C' for copy instead of '⌘+C' for a menu shortcut.
Thank you.
On a side note: this update is not available for me through the in-app update functionality.

That was a bug on Mac & Linux, they didn't get switched to the new default skin. The next builds will show Modern Cards Grey. Thanks for catching that.

Now I get "There was a problem checking for updates".

I get this too.

It's probably not been pushed to the latest channel yet, hence why no update when checking.

Looks like another update to Modern Cards Dark might be needed following the next release of macOs if the new dark mode really turns out to be for real :D
-
Unless I'm mistaken, macOS has had a dark mode for several years now.
Considering I don't use dark mode and I don't have time, if somebody wants to create a new dark mode skin (likely based on the Modern Cards: Dark Edition skin), feel free to do so. It probably wouldn't take much, just add a couple things like the dark mode versions of the spotlight button images.

They have had a very minimal dock and menu bar only dark mode for years but this is rumored to cover the full window chrome and other UI elements as well.

Is it a bug or is there a way to get the Import progress to update periodically (at least once a second) while running? For me it updates for the first few seconds and then it just stops updating the status until the end. If I close the Import status pane and reopen it I see it has advanced but it isn't advancing on it's own.

Dragging the window right edge to resize MC will often snap the window back to a smaller position as soon as you let go of the mouse button instead of retaining the new size. Usually immediately after having used some other app within the first or second clicks within MC.
