25.0.37( 5/14/2019)

1. Fixed: Focus would jump out of the Options search box in linux upon a match.
2. NEW: Implemented cache control and range requests (for the Buffered Internet Reader).
3. Changed: Marked the expressions used in Find & Replace to not be escaped (that way slash doesn't need special treatment).
4. NEW: Added RadioParadise as an available Theater View page (each page shows a list of tracks for the station).
5. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).
6. Fixed: When getting the filename field in an expression, the filename slash character won't be replaced by underscores (only slashes in other fields).
7. Changed: Allow URL's with DEFINED CONTENT LENGTHS to be converted to other formats in DLNA. You may select url as a type to convert in the DLNA server Audio advanced options when SPECIFIED FORMAT WHEN NECESSARY is selected.
8. NEW: Let Radio Paradise look one track ahead on playback so it can push the next track to a DLNA renderer that supports SetNextAVTransportURI for gapless support. Since RP is range based like a cue file this REQUIRES the associated DLNA server to be set to SPECIFIED FORMAT or SPECIFIED FORMAT WHEN NECESSARY.
9. NEW: You can perform a case-sensitive search by adding ~case to the search string.
10. Fixed: MC would crash on playing video on a client, if either of the Media Network options - "Disable audio buffer to disk (for low powered systems)" or "Disable video buffer to disk (for low powered systems)", was used.
11. Fixed: When switching tabs, the search suggestions would not switch.
12. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 4.72.
13. Changed: Slovak translation updated (thanks Peter Lukac).
14. Fixed: Captions were not working with 2D image playback.
15. Changed: When breaking lines for lyrics, the lines will reverse find a space instead of forward find a space.  Prevents lines from truncating.
16. Changed: During lyrics lookup, AZLyrics is used third instead of second (so will rarely be accessed).
17. Changed: Made lyrics drawing use a little longer lines since it now reverse finds the line breaks.
18. Fixed: Playing Radio JRiver streams would download the MPL instead of play them (for some of the streams).
19. NEW: Page up and page down will increment files when pressed in the Tag Action Window.
20. NEW: Added "Disabled" as one of the choices for read-only authentication.
21. Changed: When editing in the Tag window, clicking another file or switching with page up and page down will keep editing the same field instead of cancelling.
22. Changed: Eating a few more junk responses from Google lyrics lookup.
23. Changed: When drawing lyrics, the lines are trimmed after splitting into lines to remove empty values (which could wrap).
24. Fixed: After uploading a playlist to Cloudplay, the remote files were showing up in main database alongside the local files.
25. Fixed: Adding cover art from a file would leave the folder locked.
26. Changed: When clicking a large edit field in the Tag window, it will ensure that the "Edit in Popup" button is also visible.
27. NEW: If you press Shift+Return in a popup editor in the tag window it will accept and close.
28. Fixed: If you were playing, then playing an image from a file manager, then stopped, the zone would not return to the previously playing zone.

25.0.34 (5/3/2019)

1. Fixed: DLNA: The SystemUpdateID wasn't being updated properly. It will now update whenever a container is viewed/re-viewed with a minimum of 5 seconds between changes.
2. Changed: Things in brackets are removed from the name before lyrics lookup.
3. Changed: Filtered out a couple more bad responses from Google for lyrics lookup.
4. Fixed: Playing ASIA and Genesis would not show good artist images.
5. Fixed: Picking "No default language" for the default audio language would not save between opens of Options.
6. Fixed: Picking "No subtitle" for the subtitle language would not save between opens of Options.
7. Fixed: Showing a page in Options that didn't have the search box after showing one that did wouldn't make the search box go away.
8. Changed: The options dialog is made taller for the Remote Control page.
9. Changed: Turned off the threaded update for CD lists to see if it helps with the CD ripping problems (please report).
10. Fixed: Radio Paradise did not play.
11. Fixed: A couple of the Radio Paradise stations did not work, so now they just switch to the main station for now.
12. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 4.70.
13. Changed: Updated the Hungarian translation (thanks pimpolo).
14. Fixed: Parsing an empty playlist could crash.
15. Changed: When playing streaming content, Buffering Internet Reader will remove cached contents upon stopping.
16. Fixed: When playing streaming content, Buffering Internet Reader could hang in rare situation.
17. Fixed: Buffering Internet Reader could continue downloading for a while after stopping playback.
18. Changed: Added more safety checks in an attempt to fix recently introduced crashes when playing video/audio on Library server clients.
19. Fixed: Playing Cloudplay playlists using the 'play' button on the webpage could result in duplicate tracks in MC's library - a local filename plus a remote url.
20. Fixed: Recent changes caused Buffered Internet Reader to ignore ICY metadata and other options.
21. Fixed: Deleting a pane entry now updates the panes after (before the deleted entry would remain until a refresh).
22. Changed: When running audio analysis on import, it only uses one thread at a time for the videos in the import array.
23. Changed: Movie lookups that match the IMDBId will sort to the top of the list.
24. NEW: Added the option to delete individual conversion presets.
25. Fixed: Files with a playback range could play with an unknown (live) duration instead of the proper duration.
26. Fixed: Media Center could crash randomly during playback of audio files when Lyrics are displayed.
27. Changed: Internet playback, If we have a stream and extension assume we don't need to parse the "file". Reduces file requests.
28. NEW: Flac in Ogg streams will play from File->Open URL (and also when playing as a DLNA renderer).

6. Changed: When running audio analysis on import, it only uses one thread at a time for the videos in the import array.
7. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).
8. Changed: Zone ID is passed to Buffered Internet Reader so that concurrent playback in multiple zones from the same URL will not interfere with each other.
9. Changed: German translation updated (thanks ByteStar).
10. Changed: Movie lookups that match the IMDBId will sort to the top of the list.
11. NEW: Added the option to delete individual conversion presets.

And... it happened again. It took over a week, but suddenly MC running on a Raspberry Pi will stop allowing remotes (MO 4Media and JRemote) from connecting to it, which upon closing MC and reopening it on a Raspberry Pi causes some of the settings to be reset. What's interesting is, it's always the same settings resetting themselves. This didn't ever happen up to 25.0.27 and started happening immediately after installing 25.0.31. I'm beginning to wonder if it's a setting or a combination of settings I'm using which causes this to eventually happen.

I did get a library backup immediately after MC started back up with some settings reset, though I'm not sure if it's any help. I also have a library backup from a couple days ago before the settings reset happened, so I suppose it could be compared to the post-reset backup to see if there's anything there.

I had mysterious problems on a Pi a year ago until I bought a better power supply (more power).  I don't remember the details, but there is information on the Raspberry Pi site about power supplies.  The "standard" power supply won't support any peripherals that draw power.  A USB drive, for example.

That's the thing, there's no peripherals connected to the Pi - not even a keyboard or mouse. And I know the power supply I got is more than sufficient enough to run the Pi (5V/3A), since it's meant to have some headroom for overclocking (which I haven't done) or running a touch screen with it.

Otherwise the Pi and Raspbian itself are pretty stable with no other issues occurring. I downgraded back to 25.0.27 to double check and see if anything happens there.

This is pretty weird.
Looking through the log I just can't find anything after 25.0.27 that should have anything to do with the settings file. There were some large changes to the internet reader but most were before 25.0.27 and a change to the Settings flushing but that was 25.0.17.
I'll upload a new build today...

Do you want the before and after library backups? It has to be one of the settings (or a combo of them) that causes it.

Yes, that would be good. The settings files should be included with the backup...
Still though I can't reproduce what you are seeing here and I'm not sure how the settings would be getting changed based on the changelog...
