14.0.136 (01/29/2010)
1. Fixed: Some tooltips would not appear in build 135.
2. Fixed: Library Field Manager dialog would not correctly enforce a minimum height, so controls could overflow.
3. Changed: When starting Media Center with a /Library command line, it no longer loads the previous library before switching to the new library.
4. Changed: Video DSP can be enabled / disabled in Options > General > Advanced > Features > Video DSP. (disabled by default)
5. Fixed: AC3 output in DSP Studio was not accepted by some audio renderers/sound cards.
6. Fixed: DLNA renderer was not properly eventing changes to subscribed controllers, which could cause issues like tracks not advancing.
7. Changed: DLNA servers more nicely handle devices that make multiple event subscription requests with the same URL.
8. Changed: When running Media Center elevated, shell extensions and launcher commands from non-elevated applications can still control Media Center.
14.0.135 (01/28/2010)
1. Changed: DSP Studio Filter will not be inserted if Dolby AC3 SPDIF is the current output format of the upstream decoder filter.
2. Fixed: Raw input plugin wasn't getting enabled on systems running without administrator privilege.
3. Fixed: Sorting control used in the Smartlist Editor could draw with a black background.
4. NEW: DSP Studio 'Output Format' supports downmixing from 7.1, 5.1, and 4.0 to any configuration with less channels. (i.e. 5.1 to 2.0)
5. Changed: Improved the messaging at the top of DSP plugins to show the audio format, and better message playback types that don't support DSP.
6. Fixed: DSP Studio was causing problems with some types of videos.
7. Fixed: Statusbar text could draw too large with some skins.
8. Optimized: Tooltips are created on demand and destroyed once hidden instead of being always created.

14.0.134 (01/27/2010)
1. Fixed: Artist biographies were not appearing in the Performer store.
2. Fixed: DSP Studio Filter connection problem for some input-output combinations.
3. Changed: Improved appearance of several areas of the program when using skins that have gradient dialog backgrounds like 2nd Stage, etc.
4. Optimized: Improved rendering performance with skins that use gradient dialog backgrounds.
5. Optimized: Dialogs with static text controls use fewer render cycles in certain cases.
6. Fixed: JRiver audio engine (using DirectShow filters) could build a wrong DirectShow graph and fail to play an audio file if the audio decoder was set to use SPDIF passthrough mode.
14.0.133 (01/26/2010)
1. NEW: DSP Studio for video supports 'Output Format' settings, including upmixing to 5.1 and output as AC3.
2. NEW: Artwork in the "Default Art" or "Custom Art" directories can be localized by adding a " - [Language]" to the filename. (example: Recorder - German.png, Recorder - Spanish.png, etc.)
3. Fixed: Package installer / updater would not always honor a user's language selection.
4. Changed: Improved volume support when controlling DLNA devices.
5. Changed: Improved eventing of playback information when being controlled by a DLNA controller.

7. NEW: DSP is now available for DVD and television.
14.0.132 (01/22/2010)
1. NEW: DSP Studio is now available in video playback when using JRiver video engine (using DirectShow filters). [note that Volume Levelling and Output Format do not work]
2. NEW: Added the ability to browse other DLNA servers and play content from them locally or to a different DLNA renderer. (works like Library Server, so pick the DLNA server in Menu > File > Library)
3. Fixed: The on screen volume would blink every time a file started playback when using Internal volume. [thanks, gappie]
14.0.131 (01/21/2010)
1. Changed: Changing of video position in its window using mouse drag requires SHIFT key being held down. Applies to all video types played in DirectShow (television, DVD, video files).
2. Fixed: Check for Updates dialog could appear behind other programs.
3. Changed: Improved DLNA standards compliance of SSDP, server, and renderer components.
4. Fixed: ATSC over-the-air EPG scan produced entries that were duplicates of XMLTV entries.
5. Changed: EPG scan (OTA or XMLTV) purges old programming entries that conflict current scan results.
6. Changed: Media Center better handles local file URLs like file://c:\1.mp3.
7. Fixed: The ASIO output option to use large hardware buffers could cause hiccups during playback.
8. NEW: Numerous improvements to DLNA renderer for nicer support of remote controlling Media Center zones with other programs.
9. Changed: All DLNA servers, renderers, etc. use ports from 52100 to 52199, choosen automatically based on availability.

11. Fixed: Several DLNA fixes relating to systems with multiple network interfaces.
14.0.130 (01/19/2010)

1. Sorting does not work in Theater View: Albums (sort by Album Artist (auto) for example, still sorts by Album [Name].
2. MPC playback broken after codec installed for Library Server use.
3. Theater view scroll WAY too fast for touchscreen use. There is no fine control or sensitivity to it; skipping hundreds of albums with a light touch. These are not Windows gestures, but MC behavior/control in Theater View tile views.

Can't seem to add a new library. I keep getting a message "library already exists in that location" no matter what directory I try.

Right click <copy> in action window Tag does not work here.

when i select live TV channel, MC crashes before any display. Was working in previous version, somewhere in the teens. Seems to scan channels ok. did get xmltv data up. any double clicking on channel causes closure of MC. i am in AUS using dvb, w7, MC 136.
what is email address that logs get sent to, if this helps (don't have email set up on this machine).
thanks
craig

The paste ability doesn't wrok with the last update. i.e. I copy data (actors) from outside sources and would paste them in. But now it no longer works. What can I do to get this back? :'(

The next build will fix this problem.

Thanks Jim. I thought I did something to break this. ::)

Same bug as "cncb" (above). Only as of .136 ... cannot add new or existing library - either running as normal or elevated.
