23.0.60 (9/18/2017)

1. Changed: Album memory playback only loads the album (collection of 15 files or less in Playing Now) if it will take less than 1 GB of memory.
2. NEW: Added the MCWS function Playback/Mute to set the mute state of playback.
3. NEW: Included updated German translation file. (thanks to ByteStar)
4. Changed: Pressing play on an MCE remote while a video is paused in Display View will just resume playback (instead of restarting playback).
5. Fixed: Joke4all.net wasn't working properly in Theater View.
6. Changed: Removed the Onion from Theater View News because it wasn't working.
7. Fixed: GPS Altitude tag in EXIF was not imported correctly if the altitude reference tag was reporting "below sea level".  In those cases an invalid ascii character 0x1 was placed before the altitude value.
8. Changed: Panel - The default volume setting was changed from 50% to 100%.
9. Changed: Panel - The link to Panel in Tools -> Options -> Media Network was updated to Panel and the target link was corrected.
10. Fixed: Panel - Images would not load if there was an invalid XML character in the Altitude tag.
11. Changed: Panel - The home page icons have fixed colors.

23.0.59 (9/15/2017)

1. NEW: WebGizmo - The video player now uses live streaming when playing to the browser, so it should be able to play more video formats. Seeking beyond the buffered portion currently isn't supported.

23.0.58 (9/15/2017)

1. Fixed: Playing a file through the Shell Extension when Media Center was closed would append it to Playing Now in some cases instead of playing it.
2. Fixed: Shell Extension commands when Media Center was already running were being ignored on a 64-bit OS.
3. Fixed: A few timers were not being fired in 64-bit, resulting in loss of functionality in some areas.

23.0.57 (9/15/2017)

1. Fixed: FLAC playback wasn't working properly with the new "Load full album (not decoded) into memory" feature.

23.0.56 (9/15/2017)

1. NEW: Added the memory playback mode "Load full album (not decoded) into memory."  Loads the entire playlist (up to 15 tracks) into memory.
2. Changed: In TV Options, "In over-the-air EPG scan, save programs for channels with empty XMLTV IDs only" is moved to "Guide" section.
3. Changed: In TV Options, "Cleanup time-shifting folders" is moved to "General" section.

23.0.55 (9/14/2017)

1. Fixed: Ripping a Blu-ray could result in Media Center freezing when importing the finished rip.
2. Fixed: Thumbnailing of TV recordings in TS format followed general video setting for thumbnail capture position instead of TV setting.

23.0.54 (9/13/2017)

1. Fixed: A Library Server on the local network could be shown in the tree twice if it was connected through SSL.
2. Changed: Disabled Theater View background artwork lookup from HTBackdrops.org, as it has been unavailable for a while.
3. Changed: Improved TV channel-changing experience.
4. Changed: Included updated German translation file. (thanks to ByteStar)
5. Changed: The program will no longer ask about resuming from a bookmark even if it's configured to ask when it's in no error mode (like when it's connected to a server).
6. Changed: The error box for no tuner available won't be shown when we're in no error mode (like when connected to a server).

23.0.53 (9/11/2017)

1. Changed: Marked the memory playback modes for translation.
2. Changed: Updated Japanese language file (thanks Tsuchiya Kazuo).
3. NEW: Added the right-click command to playing now "Paste Playing Now Image From Clipboard".  This way you can customize the image shown for a device.
4. Changed: Panel - The selected zone is now stored in a cookie and restored when returning to Web Gizmo after navigating away.
5. Changed: Panel - File conversion works on images so incompatible image types should now work on Web Gizmo.
6. Fixed: Tooltip when hovering over the 'Next' button showed 'Next^^Track^^'.

23.0.52 (9/8/2017)

1. Fixed: Media Center could lock up in 23.0.51.
2. Fixed: Converting video to MPEG-2 AutoFPS could fail due to an imprecise framerate.

23.0.51 (9/7/2017)

1. NEW: The shortcut Ctrl+H hides the on screen display (OSD).
2. Fixed: When deleting JTV files, thumbnail/coverart files, ComSkip files, and other sidecar files that were saved in the same folder were not always deleted.
3. Fixed: When deleting TV recordings, thumbnail/coverart files that were saved in separate locations, such as "Cover Art" or "Cover Art\TV Logos" folder, were not deleted.
4. Fixed: Entering a playback range that went to the end of the file (ie. 7:25-) would not update the duration properly.
5. Fixed: Zone Switch would stop playback in other zones and sometimes clear the bookmark unintentionally.
6. Fixed: Tooltips would get run through the translation engine so paths and the like could end up translated.

When memory playback is set to "load album", adding video files to Playing Now is causing MC to load them into memory (freezing MC) and immediately clear them from memory as soon as they finish loading.

That's been fixed for the next build.

I tried the 64 bit-version since .57 and I discoverd a soting issue. Bands with a "the" ( The Cure for example ) will be sorted under "T" no matter if I edit the articles or check "ignore articles" in menue.
A clean install of Windows and MC won't even help...don't know if it's a bug or if I have done something wrong.

I believe that sorting issue was already found and fixed for an upcoming build.

I really like this new version.. It definitely goes faster.. My main use of JRiver - Media Center is TV.. and it is faster... nice...

The only issue I have found so far is that the update channel seems to fail??  Any Ideas

Error message "There was a problem checking for updates"

Version 23.0.60 (64 bit)

I did find that the update channel started to work if I changed the update channel from stable to latest


Title: Tags still not working
Post by: Cinelder on September 19, 2017, 09:02:22 pm
Tags still not picked up in CD rips or when copying/pasting tags or moving/renaming files.

The "Unknown" tags in CD rips have been fixed in a later version. Not sure if that covers the copy/pasting tags or moving/renaming files, but hopefully so.

There is no update for 64-bit in stable, so nothing it could work with.

After upgrading to the latest 64-bit version, neither my Pono Player nor my Sony Walkman are being recognized. The computer recognizes them, but JRiver does not. In OPTIONS, I tried Redetecting Device, but JRiver is still not recognizing my handhelds.

Handheld support is still being updated for 64-bit and will be in a future version.

Tried the V23 64bit, had a few issues where file associations didn't get picked up - installed with 32bit intact. then uninstalled 32bit and registered 64bit, still didn't work, so used settings to associate file types (basically all audio and video), but still kept asking for which program to use when double click on a known file type (mp3, flac, MKV etc). It does seem snappier and works as it should in most other ways, but I will go back to 32bit for now, as I can't have every file asking what to use to open.

Smithster, do a Custom (re)install of the 64bit version, which will allow you to select file associations during the installation, or in "Options > File Types" select everything and tick the box. Done.

That can be fixed if you post in a new thread.

I see that most of the 64-bit posts are concerned either with the install itself or video.

I am using MC20.

What improvements in audio performance, if any, might I expect by going from 32-bit to 64-bit?

My best advice is to suck it and see and take advantage of the 30 day trial and let your ears decide. Many things have changed (including some audio related things (Sox comes to mind)) but a change to the interface or a new option may also swing it for you.
