21.0.50 (2/19/2016)

1. Fixed: The JRReader DLL wasn’t exiting properly, which could cause a crash when quitting.

21.0.48 (2/12/2016)

1. Fixed: Seeking a video while deinterlacing was active caused playback to break.
2. Changed: Reverted the web links version back to 1.2 so custom links won't be erased. Note: If you have custom links, in order to apply fixes made to broken links, you will need to select "Reset All Links To Default" from the Manage Links dialog.

10. NEW: Added a Wikipedia link to the video section which will search for entries relating to a selected video title.
11. Fixed: More fixes for crashes caused by hard-killing background threads
12. Fixed: An issue with tagging errors could cause a crash when Media Center was closed.

21.0.31 (12/30/2015)

1. Fixed: External web pages were not showing because of new defaults for Webview in Xcode 7.

21.0.30 (12/30/2015)

1. Fixed: Rename, Move, & Copy dialog wasn't working in "find and replace" mode for renaming files coming from a Windows sytem (e.g. replace "C:\Music\" with "/Music/")
2. Fixed: In the Rename, Move, & Copy dialog you couldn't expand the column widths enough to see the whole filename.
3. Fixed: Some popup tool windows save their position and size if the user has adjusted them, this was not happening on Mac.
4. Fixed: DSP Studio was blinking with VST effects installed (the fix is wider and might also make drawing in general more efficient).
5. Fixed: Logging could crash MC under some circumstances.
6. Changed: Made the "Rename, Move, & Copy Files" tool no longer available when connected to a server (because the results were confusing anyway).
7. Fixed: Fixed potential hangs/crashes and memory leaks in networking code.
8. Changed: Library Server Sync is more robust against sync errors when the Library Server is restarted.
9. Changed: Enabled DoP bitstreaming for DSD256.
10. Changed: Playlist deletions get properly synced from and to Library Server clients.
11. Changed: Made a change to the tagging window to prevent editing tags when no files are selected.
12. Fixed: In Rename, Move & Copy dialog, columns couldn't be resized to show the entire filenames if they were very long.
13. Fixed: The multi-match CD dialog didn't scale nicely for high DPI.
14. Fixed: The CD information could change as a track was ripping.
15. Fixed: MCWS would send an unexpected server error response after the normal response when receiving HTTP POST requests with Keep-Alive.
16. Fixed: When resampling, the source format listed in DSP Studio wouldn't get updated properly when switching tracks.

21.0.25 (12/4/2015)

1. Fixed: Data files such as PDF's would not start up the default application when double clicked.
2. Changed: Enabled DoP bitstreaming for DSD256 (experimental).
3. Fixed: Some message boxes were slightly cut off at the bottom in Retina mode.

21.0.24 (12/1/2015)

1. Fixed: Cmd-W (close window) would enter a 'w' character into edit boxes.
2. Fixed: Corrupt tiff images caused a crash when MC tried to import them.
3. Fixed: Pressing 'w' key in popup windows triggered the cmd-w 'close window' command.
4. Fixed: MC toolbar icons were partially overlaying the left-hand close/minimize/restore buttons.
5. Fixed: When DSP Studio window was initially displayed, the current DSP plugin's info would not be shown until clicking somewhere else and then back.
6. Fixed: In the smartlist editing window, some UI controls were not showing properly.
7. Fixed: Crashes on 10.6.8 systems.
8. Fixed: Modified the Black on Black and Pearl Bailey skins to offset the toolbar icons the correct amount.
9. Fixed: If skin directory was deleted from 'Application Support' folder, MC would not run.
10. Fixed: Resizing the "Rename, Move, & Copy" dialog wasn't working right on Retina displays - it would grow way too large.

21.0.19 (11/5/2015)

1. Fixed: Rename, move, copy dialog was getting partially cut-off at the bottom.

6. NEW: Automatic stream selection based on the preferred language configured in Video -> Subtitles & Languages.
7. Fixed: Thumbnail creation for Videos would often crash JRWorker.
8. Changed: Took the (experimental) label off retina mode.
9. Fixed: When MC was maximized and user double-clicked on the title bar, app would correctly exit maximized mode, but would always position at the screen origin rather than the correct previous origin.
10. Fixed: When MC was maximized and user single clicked on the title bar, app would exit maximized mode which should only happen on double-click.
11. NEW: MC now supports the system preference setting for double-clicking the title bar.  Three settings: 1. Disabled, 2. Maximize/Restore, 3. Minimize.
12. Changed: Display defaults to retina mode if the primary monitor is high-res and the user had never selected a setting.
13. Fixed: Left tree view default width was too narrow on Retina displays.
14. NEW: Doctor Who is now available under Playlists.  30 second samples not quite working yet.
15. Fixed: DLNA socket threads that got hung up would sometimes not cancel properly so MC would hard-kill them resulting in crashes and/or memory leaks.

21.0.8 (9/8/2015)

1. Fixed: DSD multi-channel music bit-streamed in DoPe format was not working, would output noise or choppy audio or silence.  Tested on exaSound e28 DAC.
2. Fixed: Increased the size of the video frame buffer to improve smoothness of certain videos.

4. Changed: Added larger software buffering sizes (750, 1000 ms).
5. Changed: Power management improvements to hopefully minimize audio dropouts.  Besides preventing App Nap during playback, MC also prevents hard disk idle (and network idle when serving files).

7. Changed: Added the stock smartlist 'Audio -- Task -- Missing files'.

21.0.6 (8/26/2015)

2. Fixed: A gray box would appear instead of the player controls during video playback.
3. Fixed: A Mac Client would display chart view instead of file list view.
4. Fixed: MC would not open saved library views.
5. Fixed: The "View Current Log" button on the logging dialog wasn't working.

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. NEW: Added the MCWS/v1/Playback/PlayPlaylist function to play a playlist in a specified zone.
5. NEW: Sending files to a particular zone disables Zone Switch from engaging.
6. NEW: Volume Leveling uses the additional Headroom provided by Internal Volume for a more consistent experience on highly dynamic tracks or when downmixing.

14. 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).
15. Changed: Added a few more 'o' character variations to the diacritical ignoring code.
16. NEW: MCWS Browse/Children contains more information about the type of the entry, and the PlaylistID if appropriate (only when requesting Version 2).

18. Changed: Added a few more diacriticals to the list of things for ignoring during sorting.

2. Fixed: The smartlist editor dialog wasn’t drawing all the fields properly.

This is fixed for SmartList editing and for rules editing in Customize View > Set rules for file display.  However, it's still affecting the DSP Studio window.  The center pane of the DSP Studio window remains blank until you resize it, or choose another DSP module on the left.

4. Fixed: The confirmation dialog when deleting zones was not showing up.

Confirmed; this is fixed.  Thank you!  I hate deleting zones accidentally. 

Brian.

4. Fixed: The confirmation dialog when deleting zones was not showing up.

This also fixed the confirmation dialog when making a library backup.

Powering off my DAC (McIntosh D100) and back on requires me to also re-launch MC21.  For some reason it is unable to re-establish it's connection to the device otherwise.

JRiver Support: I had an major issue with DSD music not playing at all on the Auralic Vega for one night that completely freaked me out over the weekend but that seemed to work itself out. I then got this error message yesterday.
I was trying to send a picture of my mac book pro screen errors before it shut down and the picture is too large to attach. DOES JRiver HAVE AN EMAIL ADDRESS TO SEE THE ERROR PICTURE?
Please advise.

Thank you, Steven

[RolandG]

Just make the picture smaller in Preview.

The image probably won't be of much use. Can you either post the crash report here or e-mail it to me? You should be able to find it in Users/<User Name>/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports. I'm brad at jriver dot com

Two wonky things using Retina mode on a Retina display:

Clear difference between rasterized image and proper hi-DPI text. Makes sense to just make it actual text instead of an image.



Window buttons are weird on the mini player.
