1. NEW: Right-click on a tag value in the Tag window will offer the option to "Customize This Field..." which opens the library field dialog.
2. Fixed: When browsing for subs, the selection would not be saved.
3. Fixed: Updated Google date lookup to use the newer page styles of Google.
4. Fixed: The missing file icon was not working.
5. Fixed: GroupCountQuery would not work in Theater View templates (now it uses the full set of library files instead of the files in the working set).
6. Fixed: GroupCount also works on the full set of library files instead of the working set.
7. Changed: Slovak translation updated (thanks Peter Lukac).
8. NEW: Television option to allow users to pick a specific TV rating system (if available) in XMLTV files.
9. NEW: Added the MCWS function Control/AnalyzeAudio that takes a tree path and analyzes the files.

11. Changed: Made album artist a default search field for new libraries.
12. Changed: Trying to drag the window from just to the right of the toolbar didn't work.
13. Changed: TV channels loaded from the DMS (DLNA) are cleared each time before the current list is loaded.
14. Changed: Made analyze audio able to process 16 files at once.
15. Changed: Reverted the ItemCount change from the previous build because it made expressions no longer work.
16. Fixed: Some of the expression tooltips could get incorrectly combined.
17. Fixed: Audio Path could display incorrectly when running a translation.
18. Changed: Made the clean expression function when in filename mode allow backslashes to go through in a new mode 4 of cleaning (since they could be part of a path).
19. Changed: When loading EPG from XMLTV files with multiple access rating systems, MC will try to use user's country setting to determine which system to use automatically.
20. NEW: Support for playing TAK audio files (using the DirectShow playback engine).
21. Changed: Updated Czech translation (thanks Jan Boháč!).
22. NEW: The Customize View dialog is sizable and it opens at the last size and position.

7. Fixed: Playing Now could be auto-expanded on program launch even if it wasn't open during the last run.
8. Fixed: DSD playback would report a low-pass in Audio Path when bitstreaming.
9. Changed: The tree no longer expands to show when devices come and go.
10. Changed: Removed the +6 dB shift we were applying to HDCD decoding.
11. Changed: A shift of 6 dB is still applied to volume leveling so it should match between HDCD and regular files.

26. Fixed: When scanning for Tuner Stream type of TV channels without EGP loading, the "Next>" button on the scan wizard was not enabled at the end of scan.
27. Changed: Reverted a previous change that blocked Standard View EPG from updating program list while guide was being loaded in the background.

26.0.66 (4/21/2020)

1. NEW: First cut at TV support. Requires a DLNA capable tuner device (i.e. HDHomeRun Prime). Not supported on ARM yet.
2. Fixed: Fixed a crash reported from when we checked a file to see if it was a Radio Paradise file.
3. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 5.34 (makes JRiver changes from the previous build part of Monkey's Audio).
4. Changed: The "More Play Options" Theater View roller item will now contain "Play All" when selecting a single file.
5. Changed: A message is shown when APE files that are too old are encountered with the URL of the conversion tool.
6. Fixed: ListShuffle(...) didn't trim the whitespace when building a list so the new list could sometimes have spaces around the semi-colon.
7. Changed: More work on radio stations that don't play.
8. Changed: Added whitespace trimming to all the list expression functions.
9. Changed: MC as a renderer wasn't providing all of the important metadata when asked by a DLNA controller and that includes another instance of MC not actively controlling (duration, channels, sample rate, size, various artworks). This will also help with third party DLNA controllers showing metadata.
10. Fixed: Wasn't looking at the new name of the ListMix(...) function so escapement wasn't working.
11. Changed: Renamed the Transform(...) function to ListMix(...).
12. Fixed: The variables L1, L2, etc. in Transform(...) wouldn't necessarily be replaced up to the number of lists.
13. Changed: Some more work on the Tranform(...) function to make it better find the right comma (if there  are functions) and unescape commas with slashes.
14. Changed: The GroupSummaryQuery function accepts a parameter just like GroupSummary to turn off labeling.
15. NEW: Added a Transform(...) expression function (see this thread for details: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,124543.0.html)
16. NEW: Added a mode to the Find(...) expression function "2" to reverse find instead of forward find in the string.
17. Changed: When we fail to load a MIME type from a stream, we switch to the iTunes user agent and try again (makes several streams start working).
18. Changed: Slovak translation updated (thanks Peter Lukac).
19. NEW: Added BM8 to the playlist import format list (a Winamp playlist).
20. NEW: Chapters are shown on the OSD when seeking to a chapter in a video.
21. Fixed: HDCD processing would not be applied when converting formats.
22. Changed: Made only composer images trim the year from the name of the cover art.
23. NEW: Added the expression function GroupSummaryQuery to build a summary for files matching the given fields.
24. Changed: No longer set the user agent to NSPlayer when requesting a mime type for a file but instead the JRiver user agent.
25. Changed: The in and out sample rates are formatted for display instead of just returned as a raw number.

26.0.56 (4/11/2020)

1. Fixed: Serving files through DLNA could crash.

26.0.55 (4/10/2020)

1. Changed: Only 16-bit files are checked for HDCD.
2. Changed: Updated the YouTube API key (should make Theater View work again).
3. Fixed: The Save this view dialog would not build the new filename from the view name.
4. Fixed: Equalizer settings could get overwritten when a DSP object was unloaded, so if you had multiple objects, settings could flip-flop.
5. Changed: The program no longer makes sure the file exists when getting cover art as a field summary (could be slow on some systems).
6. NEW: DLNA zones show audio path information during playback when transcoding.
7. Changed: Closing the program in mini view will just close instead of return to standard view.
8. NEW: Added the variables [In Sample Rate] and [Out Sample Rate] to get the sample rates during playback.
9. Fixed: Expressions to display did not work properly.
10. Changed: Removed CD Baby because it was no longer working.
11. NEW: Added the relational type of one per genre to library fields.
12. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 5.28.
13. NEW: Added Download From Library Server to the file right-click menu (if connected).
14. Changed: Files from a playlist import now are imported into the main database (instead of only the playlist database).
15. NEW: Added the right-click play command "Play From Here" to start playback at a list location and proceed until the end.
16. Changed: Smartlists load linked tracks.1. Changed: When importing an M3U, we count the artists and names and switch them if there are more artists because iTunes does not follow the specification.1. Fixed: The ownership of the display could still become invalid in certain cases.
17. Fixed: Starting in Playing Now would still steal the display away from Display View if you started windowed.
18. Fixed: Seeking with the MCWS function Playback/Position would not work properly with remote zones.
19. Fixed: Jumping to Playing Now no longer triggers if the program is already in Display View (so the display ownership stays correct).
20. NEW: Added the expression function Letter(...) to output the starting letters of a string.
21. Fixed: Stopping after the next track advanced two tracks instead of one in build 42.
22. Changed: Removed the option to advance after stopping after a track (now always advances).
23. Fixed: Lyrics drawing wouldn't work well if the lyrics only had a \n for a newline.
24. Changed: Lyrics drawing lets longer lines stay together.
25. NEW: Lyrics drawing can break the lyrics into pages (right-click > Pages on the lyrics display).
26. Changed: Picking Options > General > Remove files from Playing Now after they are played would not work nicely with the Stop After Next command.
27. Changed: Made picking the option Stop After Playing Track advance to the next track on stop.
28. NEW: Added the expression function TrimLines(...) to standardize and consolidate newlines.
29. Changed: "Tree & View > Advanced > Display missing file image in lists" will now be used in the thread that checks file existence (to avoid shutdown lags, etc.).
30. Fixed: The latitude and longitude would not be read in full resolution from some images.
31. Changed: Reporter shows the audio analyzed and video analyzed on separate lines.
32: Fixed: Dependencies for Python to allow installation on Ubuntu 20 and others.
33. Fixed: Possible playback problems from a buffer change.
34. Changed: When renaming a file that has a JRiver Sidecar, the new sidecar file will be updated to reflect the new file path.
35. Fixed: Wavpack could not play files over 2GB properly.
36. Fixed: Another fix to the statusbar rule option naming (should allow customize now).
37. Changed: Updated Italian translation (thanks matteo e massimo).
38. Fixed: Some MP4 files could cause MC to crash.

26.0.37 (3/20/2020)

1. Fixed: A leak of file descriptors and sockets could happen when MC's helper functions were spawned, most commonly JRWorker.
2. Changed: Added a second parameter to the GroupSummary(...) expression function that when set to one, does not output things like "avg" or "total".
3. NEW: Added an "Audio" toolbar button that jumps to the last used Audio view.
4. Changed: Updated Greek translation (thanks Panagiotis).
5. NEW: Added a SearchTags(...) expression function that takes a value and returns all the fields that have a match (the parameter after the value is an integer that when set to 1, just returns true or false for matches instead of the field names).
6. NEW: Added the expression function Number(...) that takes a string and finds the number (plus decimal) in the string.
7. NEW: Added the expression function Find(...) to search for a substring in a string.
8. NEW: Added the expression function Trim(...) to trim non-printable characters and newlines from a string.
9. NEW: Added the expression function ListFind(...) to search a list for a value (takes a final parameter to decide if it should return the value or the index).
10. NEW: Added the expression function Range(...) to create a numbered list.
11. Changed: Removed the Network Streamer output plugin (not currently used).
12. Changed: Made the % column width wider for the reporter views on high DPI.
13. NEW: Added the ListShuffle(...) expression function.
14. Fixed: Album counts could be reported two times in the statusbar.
15. NEW: Added the option to load a view from a file (saved JVI) so you don't have to put it in the views folder.
16. Changed: The "Stop After Playing Track" choice in Theater View is only visible in Playing Now.
17. Fixed: Audio Path was not reporting that decoded files were being loaded for memory playback.
18. Changed: Updated to Monkey's Audio 5.23.
19. NEW: Explorer views show a mode combobox to allow choosing showing all files, imported files, or not imported files.
20. Changed: Made Fill Track Numbers From List Order start over at one each time the disc # changes if the option to start over is selected.
21. Changed: Made the sort window wider.
22. Fixed: Audio Path no longer reports that it's playing a video from memory if memory playback is enabled (the option only applies to audio).
23. Changed: The start over each album setting on filling the track numbers will also start over if the album artist (auto) changes.
24. Changed: Memory playback is checked for actually using memory instead of just checking the option for Audio Path (so things like Audio Calibration will no longer say memory playback).
25. Changed: Made composer lookup able to understand strings with years at the end and strings (composer (years)) and reversed in order (last name, first name).
26. Fixed: Made a possible fix for crashing on playback.
27. Changed: Minor corrections in Chinese (simplified and traditional) translation text.
28. Changed: When the match quality is the same for suggestions, they'll be sorted by name instead of random sorting.
29. Changed: Some more YouTube improvements.
30. Changed: Improved performance of Cloudplay playback.
31. Fixed: Certain views could crash for the last few builds.
32. Fixed: Sorting of number style lists would not treat empty elements as zero properly.
33. NEW: Added a Search For Playlists command to the right-click that opens up an Action Window page displaying a file's playlists.
34. Changed: Made the Locate fields a little better for images.
35. Faster: Made switching tracks from Cloudplay smoother.
36. Changed: Made the width of the Play Doctor window in Playing Now a little wider.

This build has updated OpenGL video interface code. It would be nice to get some feedback against previous versions. For now consider this a beta.
This build ALSO has the first ARM video, enabled for the RaspberryPi 4 (only).

So far the new video code is working great here; actually better than previously for me.  Specifically,  I have one computer with an AMD 5700XT in it and video playback wasn't working at all with previous builds (black screen followed by crash to desktop).  I assumed it was because the driver plumbing for the card was still relatively new, but it's working in the latest MC build, so it must've been some weird issue with the old OpenGL interface?  All my intel and nvidia machines were working fine and still are.

Thanks for the video improvements!  I don't have a Raspberry Pi 4 to test with right now, but when I get one I'll post back.

Ditto a bit of mwillems comments, I have bleeding edge dev box here (Tumbleweed, Kernel git master, Plasma/KF5 git master, AMD RX560).  First impressions, just....wow, considering my configs.  Seems like it's handling the basics well, h264 8/10b, hvenc 8/10b, straight dvd rips, etc.  Running MC on XWayland (with the forked KwinFT) display is 2560x1080@75Hz.

Also have a Pi4 here, Raspbian (32b w/5.4 kernel beta), 1080p TV.  Videos are playing, but tearing is bad and it doesn't appear hw dec/accel is working (was it meant to be?).  For example, 2160p hvenc 10b sample is a slide show, VLC (w/hwdec) is smooth (but has other major issues). 

This is just fantastic so far.  If you guys could get the pi4 hwaccel stuff working (mmal in ffmpeg build?), it would be a game changer.  Reliable video playback on the pi4 has been a painful experience with VLC/MPV.

Meant to ask:  Is there anything specific you'd like tested?

hwaccel on linux is not yet supported, we'll tackle that once we move to a newer base distribution. Jessie is unfortunately a bit too old to do something reliable with that basis.

For the record, mmal is no longer recommended on the Pi4, but there is an alternative, so its all fine.

For testing, just playing videos. On a Pi4 anything over 1080p is probably too much. VSYNC to avoid tearing is enabled on software side for us, but X would likely need to make sure its enabled as well.

I had smooth playback of a BD rip last night on the Pi4. Despicable Me, 1080p. It was using between 2 and 3 cores full out.

Are these changes specific to the Pi 4 or for other ARM devices as well? I'd love to get video working on a RockPro64 since the PCIe 4x slot could be used for some serious NAS capabilities.

I believe they're for any ARM device that currently works.  It's not just the RPi.

Yes, it should theoretically work on any ARM device that MC can run on. Reporting your experience would be great!

Greetings:
For the past several days,video playback has not been smooth.
I used to report smooth playback, but not anymore.
From dvd, bluray 1080p, and uhd, the experience has been horrible.
Freezing, buffering, while watching even a dvd title is not possible.
At times video stops and remains still for about 3 to 4 minutes, then suddenly out of no where continues.
I have Nvidia gpus 2080ti, and 128 gig of memory.
Thanks.
George.

Can you back off to Build 26.0.80 and verify that it plays well in that please?

Version 80 plays fine.
It is difference between day and night
I wrote about the quick response of earlier version.
Note: Once in a while, a little screen freezing, not a show stopper.
Thanks.

Thanks for this!  At last, I have my AMD R7 graphics working, and very well at that!  Before this version, MC wouldn't attempt video playback...it would just quickly dump out.   All this time I thought it was a driver issue on my end.   The AUR repo still has 26.080, so I deb-tapped .082.  I also ended up stealing     libgl1-mesa-glx from debian for an unresolved dependency in Arch.

When you get a chance George can you send me a log of it trying to play in 26.0.82? No hurry I've got a ton of things to do... Thanks.

You might report that to the package maintainer on the AUR repo, perhaps there's a version for Arch already available.

Thanks, I'll do that.  Is there something new about  .082 that is favorable to AMD sea island graphics?  Otherwise, I might wonder if it's packaged on AUR to ignore errors or dependencies.

On a Pi4 anything over 1080p is probably too much. VSYNC to avoid tearing is enabled on software side for us, but X would likely need to make sure its enabled as well.

Hardware decoding on the Pi4 actually works quite well, even for 4K sources without tearing, stuttering, etc. So, as soon as you guys add support it should be a great box for JRiver video playback.
