The key you tap to wake up your computer is sent to the focused application, so it's possible the key you hit is increasing the playback speed. Tap one of the shift keys to wake up Windows.

It seems to be the case. I conducted further tests with the opinion.
I played music on MC, then opened one or more applications to put MC into background playing. I even minimized MC. When the monitor went to sleep and I pressed any key to wake it up, the playback speed still increased.
I found that waking the monitor with the mouse did not cause any problems, and not all keys caused the playback speed to increase. (All shift keys were not applicable.)
It appears that I will have to wake the monitor with the mouse until this problem is resolved.

Movie & TV info do not come from YADB, but still, they do come at a cost to JRiver....

Is YADB down? When I right click, nothing happens.

Tools > Options > General > Behavior

You may be able to just go back to the first view by using the left arrow at the top of the content window.

Thanks. By setting the double click behavior as "File Properties" instead of "Replace Playing Now (all)"  I don't inadverdently nuke the playlist.  Other options are available via the right click context menu. I think this will work for me, and I like the behavior of viewing the file properties this easily. (Yeah, alt+enter is not much harder, but double click is still easier)

I've just tried to save different cover art for several tracks of the same CD. It worked fine for me.

The process I used was to select the new cover art using Cover Art > Add From File... This prompted a dialogue box asking me "Would you like to copy this image to the cover art location you have specified in options?", to which I answered Yes. Each image had a different filename.

Are you perhaps saving different versions of Folder.jpg in the CD folder and thus overwriting the previous version every time?

If your projector supports 23.97 you can look at MC > Tools > Options > Video > Display Settings > Is "auto change mode" OFF? Are you outputting everything at "Desktop Settings" ?

Maybe turn "auto change mode" ON, and let MC actually output 23.97 (to match the file).

I live in the UK, a PAL world, so I am not too familiar with NTSC but I do remember that some US DVDs can have 23.97 frame video that carries a 3:2 Pulldown flag instructing the player to repeat certain frames to effectively play the video at 30 frames/60 fields.

Maybe this is what is happening here?

Not too many in the 10K club - Well done!

EnglishTiger,

Button-images: All Player buttons have been 'clipped' from 5 to 3 states. Yesterday I noticed 2 buttons that do not like removing the 4th state: Slider_HorizontalHandle and Slider_VerticalHandle. Part of the graphic disappears. I also edited the window-system buttons. So far so good. I don't want to go 'overboard'.
From 170 images down to 105 images. I like cleaning.

Window-system buttons: thanks for the large, beautiful Mac-buttons. Updating the close/maximize/minimize/restore buttons was a puzzle. Also there is this second list in the main.xml in the Frame-section. Your main.xml (ET Easy Grey, update 3) shows quite different values for X and Y Offset compared to the Mainframe-list. For now I copied the Mainframe-list to the Frame section (and do not change the OffsetY and OffsetX). I thought the OffsetY  needed a "+1" because of the 1 pixel frame-border. But no, the buttons are already 'free' below the border. Looks good on Windows. I leave the OffsetX the same as in the Mainframe-list. If I change the Windows Close-button OffsetX from "0" to "5" it just disappears partly (5px) behind some dark border... the Frame_Rightborder.png!

Entry name 'Icon', what is it for? The settings can be removed without any visual effect, at least I tried it some time ago and did not notice any effect. I leave the 'default' settings (in case I missed something which needs those settings).

Images.xml: I understand that it would be 'best practice' to leave the 'SmallIcons' (and other Icon-resources) a default MC-resource instead of putting them in a Skin. But using the default Icons looks bad, both on the Mainframe and all the Options windows (Options-menu, Toolbar-menu). Icons that are "glued" to the border and/or vertically to other Icons is not my idea of 'nice'. I have a solution for that: a 'space' around every Icon. Unfortunately whenever a new Icon emerges I have to edit my SmallIcons.png...
Good for a wish list: ALL skins would benefit from an update that takes care of decent margins around the Icons.

WaveForm Bar: nice feature but a problem for skin-layout. Easy Grey's Volume-button, Volume slider, Progress slider, repeat, shuffle and DSP button are aligned, vertically positioned. Changing the skin-size is no problem. Turn on the WaveForm display, change the skin-size and see: the WaveForm gets 'out of line'... Tried changing the button-height, Yes, 1 skin-size can display the Waveform exactly in place of the progress slider. I have no real solution. Okay, this kind of precise positioning is a 'bridge to far' maybe.

Those rounded corners. Yes, a great challenge. I dropped them for the Options-windows (only 1 pixel border, no rounded corners). Above desktop resolution of 1920x1080 we get the automatic fullscreen Options windows... Borders will be invisible (on my LG Oled) or hardly noticeable. And if transparency is a problem on some systems or MC-View, better not use them at all. (It won't stop me from trying)
Rounded corners for the Mainframe (that is: around Tree + List-area): yes, I found a solution. Only a bit more complicated and limited compared to Blue Steel, Green Eyes and Thunderstorm skins. Left and Right border can only be small.

Easy Grey update? Soon...
