25.0.80 (7/17/2019)
1. Changed: The player window only leaves space for artwork when playing (so the space goes away when stopped).
2. Changed: Minor tuning to the player window artwork display position.
3. Changed: TV recording setup wizard window size has been changed, so it is wider and shorter, to avoid scaling issues on some monitors.
4. Changed: The controls on the subscription options page and the program options page on TV recording setup wizard are put in a scrolling control window so the controls will not be cut off by limitation of the wizard window size.
5. Changed: Renamed the player menu choice to "Left Align Artwork" so it matches with the on and off wording.
25.0.79 (7/17/2019)
1. Changed: Made toggling zones forward and back (Ctrl+T, etc.) go in the display order instead of the order created.
2. Changed: Made the center channel adjustment also enable for 2.1 playback.
3.
NEW: Made the tooltip for the taskbar popup contain the artist and name of the playing track.
4.
NEW: Added a "Reset To Stock" menu item to the VST "Load" button. It will reset all the settings back to stock.
5. Fixed: VST plugins could not be uninstalled from a portable install.
25.0.78 (7/15/2019)
1. Fixed: The ~expand smartlist modifier would not import / export properly.
2. Fixed: Formatting big date spans with expressions did not always work properly.
3. Changed: Play Doctor will not error when starting playback with no search at all (only with a search that gives no matches).
4.
NEW: Added a center level selection to the Output Format DSP page to be used when in two channel mode.
25.0.77 (7/12/2019)
1. Changed: Made the MCWS UserInterface/Show treat anything that's not a known string as a tree path to select.

3. Changed: Links no longer show if the field is empty.
4.
NEW: The Q factor can be set for low and high pass filters in Parametric Equalizer.
5. Fixed: A TV recording could be prematurely stopped (in 30 minutes) and restarted if the recording had been started manually while the show was being watched.
25.0.76 (7/11/2019)
1. Changed: Made the default search for the new Cloud Play option the same as the default Play Doctor search.
2. Changed: When starting Play Doctor with a search that has no matches in the library, it will message instead of playing random files.
3. Changed: When MC fails to read any 'mdat' atom from mp4/m4a/m4v/mov files using its regular method, usually due to bad 'free' atoms in the files, it will try scanning the files for such atoms.
4. Fixed: Not all playlists would show in the Tag Action Window after a recent optimization.
25.0.75 (7/9/2019)
1. Fixed: Converting with an external coder to M4A could lead to a crash.
2. Changed: If Media Center fails to start video playback, it will message about the audio but now add a string about adjusting the video delay.
3. Fixed: OpenGL Theater View was not playing sounds.
4. Changed: Made the Cloudplay options page alphabetized in the Options list.
5. Fixed: Upload to a handheld would not always honor the path correctly.
25.0.74 (7/8/2019)
1. Changed: When doing a movie lookup, the year will be stripped from the name if the movie is named like [Name] ([Year]).
2. Changed: M4A files will be marked as not HDCD if the compression is set to "MP4 AAC".
3. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).
4. Changed: Updated the Korean translation (thanks Junghwan).
5.
NEW: Added an option on manual XMLTV ID matching window to update channel names using XMLTV data.
6.
NEW: Added a "Cloudplay" options page and it allows setting rules for file playback.
7. Changed: The play button on a remote when playback is paused will unpause instead of looking for something new to play.
8. Fixed: The library authorization popup would hang if you right-clicked inside one of the edit boxes.
9. Fixed: Some MP4/m4a/m4v files with bad 'free' atoms would not play.
25.0.73 (7/3/2019)
1. Fixed: The optimization to library fields would cause drop list edit types to fill with only some of the values.
25.0.72 (7/2/2019)
1. Changed: Made the Tag Action Window save and load the scroll position as you navigate (and select no files then select files again).
2. Changed: The blue light will illuminate when decoding HDCD (previously that would cause the light to disengage).
3. Fixed: DVB channel scanning might get audio stream type wrong (such as setting audio type to MPEG1 when it should have been E-AC3);
4. Changed: When you start a rip, the database will be checked to see if the rip has already occurred and you will be messaged to confirm the rip if a duplicate is found.
5. Changed: Opened Cloud Play up to trial users.
6.
NEW: Added a Rand(...) expression function to generate a random number between the two bounds specified. The last optional parameter specifies if you want integer or decimal.
7. Fixed: Fixed a possible cause of crash in TV engine.
8.
Faster: In-place editing in a huge library is faster.
9.
Faster: Enumerating playlists is faster which helps things like Options search with a huge number of playlists.
25.0.71 (6/28/2019)
1. Changed: Renamed the option "Process HDCD" to to "Play as HDCD if possible".
2. Changed: Made passing a negative number into ListLimit will grab that many from the end of the list.
3.
NEW: Added the smartlist rule ~linkexpand to expand the links in a smartlist.
4. Changed: Made the about box identify the program as 32-bit (it would already identify 64-bit).
5. Changed: Files are no longer marked as dirty when they get flagged as not HDCD so they will not tag because of it.
