[Build pulled by JimH for hang with subtitles] (works on all systems)

32.0.28 (3/21/2024)

1. NEW: Added an error free toolbar button to show the status and allow toggling.  Also added to the view menu.
2. Fixed: Double-click on the play button was not stopping.
3. NEW: The brightness of PGS subtitles on HDR movies is checked to determine if they are proper HDR subtitles, and are treated as SDR subtitles if not.
4. Fixed: XMP image tagging did not work with some non-ASCII characters.

32.0.27 (3/19/2024)

1. Fixed: Some Sat>IP channels scanned since MC29 would not play because a tuner type matching failed.
2. Changed: Running a command line argument or double-clicking files exits error free mode.
3. Changed: "lr" is added to "words" that should be always all-capitalized during auto case correction.
4. Changed: Updated Spanish translation (thanks Leandro Botella Penalva).

32.0.26 (3/14/2024)

1. Fixed: Merging of image [People] and [Image Regions] did not work if the latter is empty.
2. NEW: Added Theater View file info template for TV Shows using Spotlight data. (v2.4 of templates file)
3. NEW: Particle creation from chapters works on blu-rays.

32.0.25 (3/12/2024)

1. Changed: Updated German translation file (thanks Bytestar).
2. NEW: Added Spotlight item to context menu in Theater View which will show Spotlight for the first file.
3. Fixed: Spotlight stopped retrieving albums for artists.
4. NEW: Introduced a new Tonemapping Curve setting in JRVR Advanced Output selection to pick between different Spline curves for tonemapping.
5. Changed: The default JRVR tonemapping spline curve has been changed to favor a more lively "popping" image in dark scenes.
6. Fixed: Setting the media network client conversion for audio was not working.
7. NEW: Added the ability to create particles from chapters in a video (requires a video that plays with chapters, does not work with DVDs currently).
8. NEW: JPEG image [People] field is written to XMP "PersonInImage" tag.
9. Changed: Image data in [People] field and the Regions data are always merged, so they will be as consistent with each other as possible.  Users are encouraged to use Face-tagging tool to make changes and editing [People] field directly is discouraged.

32.0.24 (3/7/2024)

1. Changed: When loading images for Theater View backdrop, images that do not have a language specification are considered a match, in addition to those that match the required language strictly.
2. Changed: Updated German translation file (thanks Bytestar).
3. Fixed: Recordings made on Google Pixel phones are properly identified as Home Videos.
4. Fixed: MC Television properties page (TV Options) tried to error check recordig settings (in particular, folders for TV recordings) even if recording option was off.
5. Changed: Updated to WavPack 5.7.
6. Changed: Tuned the JRVR Peak Detection parameters to be more conservative to reduce noticeable brightness changes from dynamic tone mapping.
7. Changed: When image face-tagging is finished, the [People] field is automatically updated.

32.0.23 (3/5/2024)

1. Changed: Updated Chinese (simplified) translation file (thanks YanJun Sun).
2. Changed: The view header alphabet uses the text over color instead of the text selected color on mouse over.
3. NEW: Support for FLAC files with 32-bit audio.
4. Fixed: The setting "Allow custom data to override the expression" did not allow itself to be turned off.
5. Fixed: While playing a live TV channel on a client using a server TV tuner, switching to a different media type (e.g. Audio or Video) without explicitly clicking the Stop button would cause the server tuner not to be released (for an hour).

32.0.22 (2/29/2024)

1. Changed: Updated the new / improved this version link to v32.
2. Changed: Updated German translation file (thanks Bytestar).
3. Fixed: Navigating a view could switch the focus to the tree instead of the file lists.
4. Changed: Moved the numbers to the start of the navigation alphabet (since they come before letters in the sorting).
5. NEW: Face-tagging for JPEG images (select an area in the image and tag who/what it is).  The result is saved in an XMP regions tag.

32.0.21 (2/27/2024)

1. Changed: Theater View movie file info uses full description in large view (v2.3 of templates file).
2. Fixed: The EXIF parser could crash on malformed files.
3. NEW: Added IsOverridden expression function to test if an expression field has a stored value.
4. Changed: The links tracks command disables when only one track is selected (when it's in the MRU menu).
5. Changed: More MCWS functions have the parameter NoUI to put the player in error free mode (and all default to true) (playback from JRemote is less likely to show an error, etc.).
6. Fixed: Commas in Aspect Ratio were not being handled in Theater View movie file template.
7. Fixed: Missing director images were messing up Theater View movie file template cast display.

I've been using version 32.0.20 until yesterday, when I decided to update to v32.0.28 (or was it 32.0.26 that was installed - I'm not sure anymore).

I never had any issue with the old version, but I got two "MC stopped responding" in two days so far with the new version. Any way I can provide to you some logs to see what's happening?

Edit: it looks like subtitle rendering stops (very visible on animated SSA subtitles, where the rendering animation just hangs) while the audio and video continue to play. If you try to right-click on the video, then the "MC stopped responding" dialog shows.

Here's a mkv file I can reproduce MC hanging 3 times out of 4: https://www.mediafire.com/file/u31xwcn87aztdo9/fragment.mkv/file

Even later edit: I rolled back to 32.0.20 and I can confirm this older version does not experience the "MC stopped responding" issue on the fragment I posted above. I'll stay on the old version for now.

This should be fixed in the next build, hopefully.

Thanks, I'll try again in the next version!

Build, not version.  The version is 32.  The build is 28.

I have confirmed the exact same issue. MC stops responding once the first subtitle is displayed. Then no other subs are displayed, though MC continues to play back the movie.

It was pulled due to a hang issue with subtitles.

Thank you.  Just making sure I wasn't seeing things.
