This is the latest version of MC21. Please post bugs here. Please start a new thread for anything requiring discussion. Non-bug posts will be deleted.
Download: [Build pulled because it doesn't restore settings from a backup -- fixed in next build. 21.0.3 (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=99729.0) is still available.]
21.0.4 (9/2/2015)
1. Changed: Sorting ignores diacriticals instead of sorting them special.
2. Changed: The ICY metadata reader interprets the data it gets as UTF-8 instead of ANSI (will make some international stations appear more correctly).
3. NEW: Keyboard shortcut Ctrl+B for "Previously played TV channel".
4. Fixed: Auto matching of channels to xmltv IDs in the new mc2xml TV guide method did not work.
5. Fixed: Memory leak in SACD DST decoding.
6. Fixed: MC21 ASIO driver was showing up in list of audio devices.
7. Changed: Changed how device arrival event is handled for video capture (analog TV tuner) devices, so that audio capture devices are not erroneously added to TV tuners list.
8. Fixed: Turning the ASIO driver on or off didn't ask for UAC elevation so the install went into outer space.
9. Changed: Added the stock smartlist 'Audio -- Task -- Missing files'.
10. Fixed: Fixed a typo "Remove from Farvorites".
11. Changed: Removed the 'Help Wiki' link from the help menu since it was the same as Help > Contents.
12. Changed: Added more diagnostic logging for TV recording.
13. Changed: Made some changes in the handling of serving clients live TV from the server.
14. Changed: Updated Japanese translation (thanks Kazuo Tsuchiya).
15. Fixed: Fix for volume leveling growing out of bounds on track changes.
16. Changed: Bookmarking looks at the playback range when calculating the duration so that files that are just little snips won't bookmark.
17. NEW: Added the output format "Encode as 4xDSD in DoP format" for 4x DoP delivery.
18. Changed: When running mc2xml internally, MC will try fixing empty country code and postal code first, and then -c and/or -g options are skipped if the respective fields are still empty.
19. Changed: The movie lookup code run by Auto-Import will only look a movie up every 30 days (instead of continually).
20. Changed: Added validity check on postal code entered in television setup wizard and on television property page. Postal code entry is now mandatary. The degree of validity check depends on country.
21.0.3 (8/17/2015)
1. NEW: Added the choices 176.4 khz and 192 khz to the configure ASIO Line-In dialog.
2. Fixed: After a few hours of running the 3d visualization tunnel would reach the destination and stop (only maybe fixed so testing appreciated).
3. Changed: Updated French translation (thanks p.v.).
4. Changed: Adjusted logging in an effort to diagnose the lost TV tuner problem.
5. Changed: Updated Czech translation (thanks Jan Boháč!).
6. Changed: Updated Slovak translation (thanks Peter Lukac).
7. Changed: Updated Japanese translation (thanks Kazuo!).
8. Fixed: ZoneSwitch was broken and not finding its settings since 21.0.1.
9. Changed: Added all the channels from 10 to 24 by increments of two to the Output Format DSP page.
10. Changed: The option to add Netflix to Theater View has been removed (the item would just get trimmed anyway).
11. Fixed: The recent searches in the search box wasn't working properly.
12. Fixed: Thumbnailing could stall.
21.0.2 (8/5/2015)
1. Changed: Reworked television device change handling. Hopefully this will fix the "no tuner available" error on some systems after waking up from sleep.
2. Changed: mc2xml option is moved to the top of EPG mode selection page in Television Setup wizard.
3. Fixed: The "Click here for more information about mc2xml" link in Television Setup wizard was a dead link.
4. Fixed: Updated the licensing for version 21 (internal change).
21.0.1 (8/4/2015)
1. NEW: Added the sample rates 705600 and 768000 to the Output Format dialog.
2. Changed: Updated Slovak translation (thanks Peter Lukac).
3. NEW: Added an image playback mode 'Display images using a 2D renderer' to the options of Images. Will use a 2D space for rendering instead of a 3D space. Mostly for Linux / Mac, but please test.
4. Fixed: The Onion would return "No text" for many of the articles in Theater View.
5. Changed: Removed the splash screen because it never showed launching off an SSD anyway, but it would still slow the launch down a little.
6. NEW: Theater View background image slideshows include sidecars that are next to the file.
7. NEW: Added the MCWS/v1/Playback/PlayPlaylist function to play a playlist in a specified zone.
8. NEW: Sending files to a particular zone disables Zone Switch from engaging.
9. NEW: Volume Leveling uses the additional Headroom provided by Internal Volume for a more consistent experience on highly dynamic tracks or when downmixing.
10. NEW: Added a 'Clean results' checkbox to the Fill Properties From Filename tool that will fix spacing, capitalization, etc.
11. NEW: Added an expression function Row() that outputs the current row number of a record.
12. NEW: Added the command 'ZoneSwitch...' to the Audio options page.
13. NEW: Added "Play in Media Center" to the root of the explorer context menu.
14. Changed: Made the search suggestions a little wider and fixed the sizing to account for high DPI.
15. Changed: Marked "<unknown album>" and "<unknown name>" for translation.
16. Changed: Marked a bunch of strings in the TiVo server for translation.
17. Changed: Updated French translation (thanks p.v.).
18. Changed: When a zone is cleared, it will clear all the linked zones as well (applies to MCWS/v1/Playback/ClearPlaylist but also other areas as well).
19. Changed: Added a few more 'o' character variations to the diacritical ignoring code.
20. NEW: Middle-click on a link column will open the link in a new tab.
21. Fixed: Recording of a television program on a grouped channel would incorrectly favor an STB tuner (even if the STB channel was not on top of the group).
22. NEW: MCWS Browse/Children contains more information about the type of the entry, and the PlaylistID if appropriate (only when requesting Version 2).
23. NEW: Keyboard shortcut 'D' for onscreen information display (equivalent to remote control info button) that toggles among "playback position"/"program name"/"program description".
25. Changed: Updated Japanese translation (thanks Kazuo).
26. Changed: Added a few more diacriticals to the list of things for ignoring during sorting.
27. Changed: Switched Theater View back to looking only at artist instead of album artist (auto) when doing cover art lookup.
28. Changed: Added a tuner selection page when re-scan for television channels (only applicable in channel types for which multiple tuners are in the same profile), so you can scan for channels using one device, and re-scan using a different device more easily.
29. Changed: Carnac understands the naming template Move Name (Year).
30. NEW: mc2xml is integrated into the program, so it can be used for all your EPG retrieval needs.

3. NEW: Keyboard shortcut Ctrl+B for "Previously played TV channel".
Working well, thanks. I've already programmed it into one of my mouse keys.

BUG: (with Red October Standard)...
Signal Strength is broken; it always shows 50 for all channels regardless of Quality.
BUG: (with Red October HD)...
Signal Strength is broken; it shows minus numbers such as -8000, -9000, etc.
It's now showing the minus numbers for signal strength for both RO Standard & HD. The first two times I went from Standard to HD & back signal strength went from the minus number back to the fixed 50. The third time both Standard & HD are showing the minus numbers.

the postcode validation seems rather aggressive
I don't use TV in jriver and have never configured it but now it won't let me leave the options screen without setting a post code. Steps to trigger it
- open options screen
- type "jump" into search bar (was looking for "jump on play (audio)")
- go to theatre view pane, change "jump on play (audio)" setting
- click ok
- get dialog saying "enter a postcode"
presumably typing jump has "loaded" the tv pane and triggered that validation and nothing except cancelling "unloads" that validation, this is more clearly shown by
- open options screen
- click TV pane
- click ok, asks for postcode
- click any other pane
- click ok, still asks for postcode even though you haven't changed anything on the TV pane and there is no postcode field on screen
actually now there's nothing I can do to clear this dialog, if I open the options screen and click ok then it asks for a postcode. It seems that it remembers I had an error on the TV pane so takes me straight back there and hence I cannot escape, it wants my postcode no matter what! :)
On a general note, it doesn't tell me I have to enter a space for a valid postcode and it doesn't highlight the postcode field so it's not obvious what I need to fix.

20. Changed: Added validity check on postal code entered in television setup wizard and on television property page. Postal code entry is now mandatary. The degree of validity check depends on country.
Is working well for me; this one change will save a lot of people a lot of aggravation for TV Setup.
-
4. Fixed: Auto matching of channels to xmltv IDs in the new mc2xml TV guide method did not work.
Works absolutely beautifully :-*
It ran automatically on my setup & matched all my channels accurately.
Another great fix from the "great fixers at JR".
This one goes a loooong way towards improving TV Setup.
Thank you so much ;D

TV Setup in general seems much smoother & "flows" better than before.
GREAT JOB guys 8)

When using the default standard views such as Audio>Artists, if you edit the selection of columns in the details pane with Artists selected in the tree, then using tree browsing select an artists in the tree you will notice it is not the same selection of columns but if you now edit this selection and go back to Artists in the tree you will see it has reset the previous changes. This leads to a frustrating infinite loop of editing one selection resetting the other.

In the audio theater view the background freezes on the image when it shows the image that matches the album art of the song being played. The background image will not change to another image unless you exit theater mode and return to theater mode. Will there be a fix for this in future updates?

Resampling from 44,100 to 48,000 creates some random brickwall filter between 10 and 20k.

Hi,
yesterday I tried to play back an AIFF stereo file with 32 bit float content with 21.0.4.
It was encoded with JRiver 20 latest version.
The noise in my speakers where horrible, it has nothing to do with music contend - just loud noise.
The same workflow in .wav 32 bit float works very well.

I just reinstated this, because I figured the program might have become corrupted, owing to the fact that videos gave an error message, 'Something went wrong with playback' .. I'm STILL getting that mesage.. Audio plays fine, but video is not so good.. What could be causing this? I've even restored a previous 'save', with no improvement..

Build 21.0.4 doesn't appear to restore settings from library backups.
I was doing two clean installs of Windows 10 and found that if I used 21.04 the library would be restored but not any settings.
Reverting to 21.0.3 allowed the settings to be restored from the backups-phew!
This is the sort of bug that gives end users blood pressure (where are all my dsp settings and zones...aaargh!)

Hullo,
I Recently Bought A Master Licence Upgrade From MC20 To MC21 and just wondered when the installer is going to appear on the download page?
Thanks,
Warwick

Hello,
I have been able to reproduce the same issue. For now, there is a workaround that may help to resolve this issue. First, make the changes to the column displays like you normally would. Once you're finished, right click on the column bar (as if you were going to change the display) and select Presets -> Save. This time, when you go into the tree view on the left hand side to edit the column view, load the preset you just saved instead of making the changes directly to the column display.
Hopefully this works for now,
Brad
