14.0.159 (03/25/2010)

1. Fixed: Turn off video support by default for UPnP devices that don't support video.
2. Fixed: Return sane DLNA strings for the MC renderer which didn't have the full information needed to do so.
3. Fixed: A crash while playing images at the same time as audio in the same zone could leave a dangling 'Images' zone that would cause issues.
4. Changed: Toggling through zones will no longer stop at the internal 'Images' zone used during simultaneous audio and image playback.
5. Changed: Updated German language file (thanks to Bytestar).
6. Changed: Updated French translation (thanks Benoit de Corn).
7. Fixed: If a DirectShow DSP property page was already showing in DSP studio when playback was started, the page appeared to be inactive, until DSP studio was closed and reopened.
8. Fixed: If there was a failure contacting the Netflix API, it would keep trying every 1/4 second forever.

14.0.158 (03/18/2010)

1. Fixed: Content-Range in partial content in the http server. Messed up end of files when serving files to some DLNA renderers.

14.0.157 (03/12/2010)

1. Fixed: Some DLNA renderers were not showing up as zones under playing now. (like wdtvlive).

14.0.156 (03/11/2010)

1. Fixed: Scheduled television recording of an analog television program would cause MC to crash if JRiver Audio Renderer feature was enabled.
2. Fixed: Edge snapping did not work nicely in some multimonitor configurations.
3. Changed: If all the pieces of DLNA are disabled, no SSDP multicast responder server will be started. (could cause spurious firewall prompt)
4. Fixed DLNA image handling problem (resolution wasn't being sent).
5. Changed: DLNA image shrinking to handle all file types (converted automatically to jpegs).
6. Changed: DLNA reports more accurate (based on codec if possible) video for WMC compatible (xbox 360) profiles. (requires updating library from tags for video files).

14.0.155 (03/03/2010)

1. Changed: Improved JRiver Audio Renderer clocking method to improve lip-sync.
2. Fixed: If WAV tagging was disabled (the default), setting cover art to the WAV files could still result in the database incorrectly switching the image field to "Inside File".
3. Fixed: Netflix feature could fail to authorize user if the computer's clock was off quite a bit.

14.0.154 (03/02/2010)

1. Changed: Added support for [App Version] keyword when customizing the display at the top of the program.
2. Changed: Purchases done through this version (and newer) will receive a Media Center 15 license.
3. Changed: DVD audio/video decoder enumeration is done in JRWorker so that bad filters can not cause crashes.
4. Changed: DSP Studio > Room Correction only applies distance based attenuation across matched speaker sets (phasing correction is still applied across all speakers in play).

14.0.153 (03/01/2010)

1. NEW: Added jump on play option "Theater View Playing Now" so playing from Standard View will show Theater View.  Under General/Behavior.
2. Fixed: Right-clicking television playback and selecting "Select Filters..." could crash.
3. Changed: Playback will no longer attempt to support files that report a sample rate less than 0 or greater than one million (corrupt files could cause crashes).
4. Fixed: The rollup state of playlist and podcast view headers was not being saved between view switches and program runs.
5. Fixed: On a fresh install, a 'Default' library entry would not get created in Library Manager, making it difficult to switch back to the default library after loading a different library.
6. Fixed: Zone settings for obsolete zones (like DLNA devices that have been disconnected, etc.) could accumulate in options.
7. Fixed: When looping through a list during in-place editing, the column headers could become mis-aligned with the columns.
8. NEW: Added DSP Studio > Output Format option "For stereo sources, only mix to 2.1".
9. Fixed: Right-clicking television playback and selecting "Select Filters..." resulted in a dialog window with empty drop-down lists.
10. Optimized: Improved internal data movement performance of JRiver Audio Renderer.
11. NEW: When a Blu-ray disc is in the drive, it will appear more nicely inside the program and playing the entry will launch the bdmv in the default player for bdmv files.

14.0.152 (02/26/2010)

1. NEW: Ripped DVD's can be streamed to DLNA renderers .
2. Fixed: Seeking using the JRiver audio renderer could cause a crash.
3. Fixed: MC could fail to play a DVD using FFDShow Video Decoder due to the decoder's lack of Closed Captioning support.
4. Changed: Relaxed the requirement that audio PID must be positive, to allow 0 to be entered, when manually adding a DVB-T channel.
5. Optimized: Reduced chances of WASAPI hiccups when using very low buffer latency settings.
6. Changed: Improved smoothness of the clock provided by the JRiver audio renderer during video playback.
7. Changed: Updated German language file (thanks to Bytestar).
8. Fixed: The DSP Studio Output Format setting "Surround mixing" was disabled when selecting "Stereo", making it impossible to select JRSS v2.0 for 5.1 or 7.1 downmixing.

14.0.151 (02/24/2010)

1. Fixed: During television playback, the JRiver audio renderer would not be used.
2. Fixed: A timeout when reading from an internet resource could cause a crash.
3. Optimized: When using the JRiver Audio Renderer for video playback, the DSP Studio is managed by the renderer instead of inserting a discrete DSP Studio transform filter in the playback graph.
4. Changed: Revised how clocking in JRiver Audio Renderer works so that it nicely supports tempo and rate changes in DSP Studio (or other similar VST, etc. plugins).
5. Fixed: JRiver audio renderer caused some videos to repeat the last sound byte forever.

14.0.150 (02/23/2010)

1. Fixed: Some WAV tags could cause the program to hang.
2. Fixed: Switching between a Directshow audio filter and a Media Center plugin for audio decoding would unnecessarily do a full-stop transition, making cross-fading, gapless, etc. impossible.
3. Changed: Improved lip-sync when using JRiver audio renderer (may require one seek before lip-sync is correct).
4. Changed: Theater View's Playing Now looks and works better when playback is stopped.
5. Changed: Improved support of mu-law encoded AU files.
6. Fixed: Slim view would incorrectly do Windows 7-like edge snapping. (still snaps to edges, just doesn't fill half the screen)
7. Changed: Playing a physical DVD when connected to a library server that had also played that DVD would not work.
8. Changed: JRiver audio renderer can be used for DVD, TV, and video playback.
9. Fixed: The more sophisticated resampling options from build 148 were not being honored during video playback.

14.0.149 (02/19/2010)

1. Fixed: Theater View list selection wouldn't properly reset to the beginning of a list when navigating into an item.
2. Optimized: Improved program shutdown performance.
3. Fixed: The new Playing Now in Theater View could hide the first file in the list view.
4. Internal: Revised how output plugins are loaded (should be internal change only, please report any issues).
5. Changed: Scheduled television recording will stop a low priority recording if a higher priority recording is scheduled.

14.0.148 (02/18/2010)

1. Fixed: Loading a DLNA library from some NAS drives would not support FLAC files.
2. Changed: Tightened up item spacing at bottom of Theater View's Playing Now.
3. Changed: Updated German language file (thanks Bytestar).
4. Chef's Recommendation  NEW: Added ASIO 'Volume' option to allow customization of the system volume device controlled during ASIO playback (since ASIO device names do not always match Windows device names).
5. Changed: Improved volume matching mode during ASIO playback when the volume option is set to 'Automatically try to choose at playback time'.
6. Changed: When replacing Microsoft DTV-DVD audio decoder with another decoder during video, DVD, and television playback that involves AC3 audio decoding, a prominent message is displayed to show user of progress.
7. Fixed: MC could repeatedly download and install FLV splitter filter on Windows 7 due to failure to access registry.
8. Chef's Recommendation  NEW: Output Format in DSP Studio allows more sophisticated resampling settings, making it easier to leave sample rates supported by your hardware untouched while resampling unsupported formats.
9. Changed: Updated copyright years on about and splash images.
10. Fixed: When playing a video, incorrect values could show in DSP Studio > Volume Leveling (replay gain not available for videos).

14.0.147 (02/17/2010)

1. NEW: Theater View's Playing Now has functional position, volume, and star ratings (all items have left, right, enter functionality -- currently requires a remote or keyboard for functionality)
2. Fixed: The new Theater View Playing Now 'Info' panel was not tied to the correct file.
3. Changed: When Theater View jumps to Playing Now, it does it relative to the current view so "Back" will return to the previous view.
4. Changed: Theater View will jump to Playing Now when starting audio playback, a single

click will return. (can still be customized in Options > Theater View)

Cool, MC 14 still in development. Thought all efforts would be focused on 15 now.

Hi, the french langauage seems broken i need to use the file of the V14.058 because when i choose french it's checked but the language stay in english.

[mouffy]

Hi,
I can confirm that bug about the french translation. Please kurushi, where did you find the good file to replace the bad one ?
Thanks, Mouf

[kurushi]

Hi i have used the old one from v 14.058 but the one from v 15 works too.
It's located in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\J River\Media Center 15\Data\Languages.

But i think J river 'll correct it for the next build anyway (cauz i want to see the new translation and i think mc15 have the old french file too)

[Lasse_Lus]

when having the behavior "Double-click: Add to playing Now (to end) under options->general

this works as expekted for all mediatypes but not for images, instead it's going to fullscreen and adds all visible files in the view to plaing now...

I've used Theater view in the past with MC13. Today I tried it with MC14. Although I find the backdrop feature cool, I noticed a sluggishness in 14 that wasn't there in 13, i.e. while using the cursor to move down the list of songs for example, it stops, win7 "spinning wheel" is displayed and eventually the dreaded "app not responding, do you want to exit app" dialog shows up. Clicking cancel, allows MC to catch up and stay up, but it's really annoying and happened over and over in the couple of hours I was listening to music.
Sys details:
Win7 x86
i3-530
4gig of ram

so decent HW for mc I believe.

Please help - its very important for me.

Tags updates received from clients doesn't write to file (flac) tags during synchronization.

1.flac file on server - doesn't have rating (0)
2.Sync(library sync) server with client, recived rating update - rating 2 (2) in MC view, but (0) in file on hdd (option "Update tags when file info changes" mark on both MCs).
3. Sync(with handheld) server MC with "My Device" - my mobile hdd.
4. Check rating in flac file on device - rating (0) !
5.Sync(library sync) client MC with server again, again update raging - now its (4) for server library view.
6. Recheck Sync on server with  "My Device" - MC see changes and..
7. Sync device again - so, rating in flac file on mobile device still (0)

What can I do now: - "Update tags from library" for the 1,5 TB of music before each sync - is sorry HDDs and time..

I would like what it can be worked right in the release 14 version, if possible..

Thanks

Library server doesn't currently sync file tags. Probably should be added in the future.

[morrison]

MC crash at device sync

log file

[morrison]

Library server doesn't currently sync file tags.

?

But I don't work with files (I use TC for that)- I just want sync my DB with my handheld. Some of library changes received from clients, some - from current session - how I can control?
If I check "always convert" option for synced device and use mp3 encoder - tags applied! Maybe add option "apply tag changes" for handheld sync?
