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.

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.
