21.0.9 (9/19/2015)

1. Changed: On television setup's mc2xml settings page, the provider token control is changed from an edit box to a combo box, which is filled with previously setup provider tokens.  The current hardware profile name is entered as a suggested name.  Added more details to the instruction text too.
2. Changed: Renamed the Restore and Maximize buttons for the Pearl Bailey skin because they were reversed.
3. Changed: Changed ordering of some television setup pages so that remote control activation page and IR learning page are not far apart.
4. Changed: Added the strings 44,100 Hz, etc. to the translatable phrases list.
5. Fixed: The small icon for the Playing From item would go away when picking a translation.
6. Changed: Added a space between the number and number label in a few places in the code.
7. Fixed: Television recording on STB channels could be silent.
8. Fixed: Playing audio in multiple zones simultaneously could crash since 21.0.7.
9. Changed: Tweaked flushing and presenting in 3D rendering for Theater View to avoid it freezing, testing appreciated.

21.0.8 (9/17/2015)

1. Fixed: Television setup EPG loading mode selection was not pre-selected on fresh new setup since we integrated mc2xml.
2. Changed: Tweaked the resizing that happens on the top border of the player.
3. Fixed: The reporting of the DSD sample rate was only fixed if the player was sending DoP but not if it was bitstreaming native DSD.
4. Changed: Extended the range of the bitdepth simulator in the PEQ to 2-32 bits.
5. Changed: When the Analyze Audio dialog opens the keyboard focus will be on the "Analyze" button.
6. Fixed: When picking a scale bigger than 100%, the tree would truncate the images instead of growing its size.
7. Changed: Updated the SoundTouch library used in the Tempo/Pitch/Rate DSP and VideoClock functionality.
8. Fixed: On "Manage Channels" window clicking "Auto Group" button did nothing when there are two sets of Set-top box channels using the same channel lineup.
9. Fixed: Television setup wizard saved an empty EPG loading profile.
10. Fixed: Video Playback properly flushes the DSP engine when seeking.
11. Changed: The word "Drive" can be translated in the CD, DVD, & BD options page.
12. Changed: Added the option "Show 'Recently Imported' when clicking on 'Details' when an import finishes" to optionally not show the recently imported playlist.
13. Changed: Standardized the buttons on the image editor to "Apply" and "Cancel" (so removed some buttons like 'Remove Red Eye' and 'Heal').
14. Changed: Updated French translation (thanks p.v.).
15. Fixed: Television setup did not work (in build 21.0.7) when choosing mc2xml or XMLTV for EPG for non-STB and non-CableCARD channels.
16. Changed: Sped up search results.

21.0.7 (9/14/2015)

1. NEW: Added optional full strength TPDF Dithering in the audio engine (Options > Audio > Advanced > Dither Mode).
2. Changed: Updated Slovak translation (thanks Peter Lukac).
3. Changed: When running television setup, mc2xml will no longer be executed twice, once for channels once for guide.  Now only one run (unless there is a failure) will be needed, even if there are multiple types of channels to be setup (with identical channel lineup).
4. Fixed: Accepted search suggestions weren't always working.
5. Changed: The sample rate of DSD when bitstreaming will be reported more correctly by the player (it was showing the rate it would become if it became PCM).
6. Changed: Switched the spacebar in Theater View to always play what's selected instead of only playing if playback was stopped.
7. Changed: Made the ideal width of a small image column a little wider.
8. Changed: Updated Japanese translation (thanks Kazuo Tsuchiya).

21.0.6 (9/10/2015)

1. Fixed: Television shows that were 5 minutes or shorter were not presented in guide.
2. Fixed: The height of tiles in a list didn't scale properly for high DPI.
3. Fixed: When loading STB or CableCARD channels, mc2xml could fail repeatedly.
4. Changed: Added instructions on television setup regarding mc2xml "data source" selection (Standard vs. TitanTV).
5. NEW: Multiple mc2xml EPG loading methods can be setup, one for each provider selected ("digital terrestrial lineup", "digital cable", etc.).
6. Changed: Relaxed postal code checking on television property page.
7. NEW: For playback you can select "Ask at playback time" and MC will ask if you want to play internally or launch a program.
8. Changed: When showing search suggestions in the Television view, it will look at both recordings and the EPG (previously it only looked at the EPG).
9. Fixed: Search suggestions could show duplicated values in rare cases.
10. Changed: Made the name field in the database search like all the other fields so that typing a part of the name will give that name as a suggestion (please report any issues).
11. Fixed: Multi-monitor support was broken.

21.0.5 (9/9/2015)

1. Fixed: The detached display would maximize to the wrong size on mixed DPI multiple monitor configurations.
2. Fixed: Automatic EPG loading with mc2xml did not work for countries where postal codes consist of two parts separated by space (UK, Canada, Ireland, etc.).
3. Changed: Television recording rules that have invalid program ID or channel ID will not be automatically deleted.  They will just be marked as such, so users may choose to fix them manually.
4. Changed: When scheduling or editing an existing scheduled time-based TV recording, the channel drop-box will no longer be disabled.
5. Changed: MC will try finding new bda or WDM TV tuner devices each time it tries to load a tuner for playback or recording.
6. Fixed: Playing a DVB TV channel on a client might fail.
7. Changed: Updated French translation (thanks p.v.).
8. Fixed: The TiVo Server Options dialog could truncate on some displays.
9. Fixed: Settings were not getting restored when restoring a library backup (build 21.0.4 only).
10. Fixed: The 'Server Stopped' message from the TiVo server wasn't translatable.
11. Changed: Updated the 'New / Improved This Version' link in the help menu to point to the version 21 thread.
12. NEW: Added the expression function Translate(...) to give a string to the translation engine.
13. Changed: The text on a list like Gold by Abba can now translate the by string that's in between the artist and album.
14. Changed: Updated French translation (thanks p.v.).

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.

Minimum size for LeftBorder and RightBorder in skins suddenly got huge. 5px instead of 1px

As you mentioned, some of the skins have right and left border widths of 1 pixel. This was done to make these narrow borders easier to resize without overlapping with scroll bars.

The compatibility issue should be resolved by build 11.

Just installed version 21 today to validate and try out but after building my video database with about 937 movies the program is starting to lock up and become unresponsive when trying to update the Movie/TV information or cover art.   You can update a few titles from the list view before the system locks up.   Once it has become unresponsive you must restart the PC before you are able to launch the application again.

Seeking is broken in some ogg-files. (Plays fine in foobar2000) Also skips second or so at the end and begining of these files.

I think I have reported same issue before and it was then fixed.

Let it run.  Windows can do that when a program is really busy.  

You could turn off auto-import.  If the files are on NAS drives, it could be a result of a lot of network activity.

Please use another thread for this problem.  It's probably not a bug.

Could you email me a sample ogg file that has problems?  I'm matt at jriver dot com.

Thanks.

Figured this out. Tried the original flacs and same problem occurred. I checked the library data more precicely and found out that playback range did have peculiar values which caused playback weirdness.  I used foobar2000 to convert flac->ogg because MC doesn't preserve all the original tags during conversion.

Sorry for the false report.
