26.0.17 (1/13/2020)
1.
NEW: During iTunes library import, the full path of a playlist will be imported instead of only the name.
2. Fixed: Updating the file playback range could lead to a crash in some cases.
3. Fixed: Decoding of
ALAC in M4A could result in artifacts in some files.
4. Changed: In Standard view EPG list will delay updating when EPG loading is running in the background.
5. Changed: Switched the no files double-click message from play all files to play audio files in Playing Now (so things like notes don't get played).
6. Changed: Updated FFmpeg to 4.2, used for file analysis and transcoding.
7. Fixed: The MCWS JSON file list would return an empty file entry instead of an entirely empty list if no files were found.
8. Changed: Added a parameter to the MCWS Browse/Image call to avoid delivering the default placeholder images, allowing a client to gracefully substitute its own.
9. Changed: Updated our User Agent again to resolve issues with Podcast downloads.
10. Changed: Updated the Norwegian translation (thanks Øistein Rian).
11. Changed: Updated Italian translation (thanks matteo e massimo).
26.0.16 (1/9/2020)
1. Changed: Updated Italian translation (
thanks matteo e massimo).
2. Changed: JRiver TV recording file type "jtv" will be among default file types for importing and for file association.
3. Fixed: Setting the tempo with MCWS didn't always take effect right away.
4. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 5.12.
5. Changed: In Standard view, TV recording button is made available even if the EPG is completely empty, so that one can still record a show by specifying channel and time, without program info.
6. Changed: Revised the image date code to hopefully load the date more reliably from images.
7. Changed: When MCC_HANDHELD_UPLOAD arrives, it will first recheck the sync (otherwise it would just sync nothing after changes).
8. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).
9. NEW: You can select the country of Italy from the Amazon store menu at the top right.
10. Fixed: Television code could crash in rare cases.
26.0.15 (12/18/2019)
1. Changed: Updated German translation file (
thanks Bytestar).
2. Changed: The menu placement of the main program scales with the size of the program so at a larger size it gets shifted (should fix Blue Steel problems).
3. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 5.11.
4. Changed: Changed how critical errors from TV tuners are handled so we will not mess up reference counting of the tuners.
5. Changed: We reset a TV tuner from error state to normal state in 3 minutes, instead of 30 minutes, so the tuner can be used again sooner if it is usable.
6. Changed: Updated French translation (
thanks Stéphane).
7. Fixed: Picking thumbnails and hitting the play button to play them would not always work properly after a recent change.
8. Changed: Updated Greek translation (
thanks Panagiotis).
26.0.14 (12/16/2019)
1. Fixed: Media Center could not ask for permission when running tasks which needed administrator rights (installing plugins, registering controls, etc).

3. Changed: Updated Italian translation (thanks matteo e massimo).
4. Changed: Updated the Hungarian translation (thanks pimpolo).

26.0.12 (12/12/2019)
1. NEW: Made it possible to specify the bitrate of an external encoder instead of it always using 1440.
2. Changed: PSI parser in TV engine will check CRC of a PAT section before flushing existing data.
26.0.11 (12/11/2019)
1. Changed: More improvements in Theater View TV guide navigation, especially when a long program is on a channel at the top or bottom of the list and navigation rolls over from bottom to top or vice versa.
2. Changed: A few threading changes that could improve stability.
26.0.10 (12/10/2019)
1. Changed: Added some protection against possible crashes in TV.

26.0.9 (12/4/2019)
1. NEW: Added an IsUpperCase expression.
2. Changed: The option to "Move all non-imported files in folder with selected media files" only runs if the file is imported (so it won't engage on files from the Explorer view, etc.).
3. Changed:
Improved Theater View TV Guide navigation, especially with Page Up/Page Down keys.
4. Changed: Added a JSON export to MCWS File functions (eg. Browse/Files, Playlist/Files, etc).
5.
NEW: Composer views will use a Composers folder for cover art and look there (instead of the artist, etc. views).

NEW: Added a Cover Art lookup from Google for composer images.
7. Fixed: A corrupt FLAC files could hang the program.
8.
NEW: Made a new Theater View option "Show Showtime rule..." to specify a search to not show the Showtime! item (so it doesn't have to show for television programs, for example).
9.
NEW: Allow any multi-channel file to be uploaded to Cloudplay. We used to allow two channel only.
10. Changed: Renamed Showtime! to Showtime and made it off by default.
11. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 5.08.
