14. Changed: Made Audio Path report the number of filled channels instead of the number of total channels of audio.
15. Changed: Reordered the web links menu so manage and reset are at the top and a link doesn't take the keyboard shortcut.

32.0.31 (3/28/2024)

1. Changed: When face-tagging an image, if a click falls on an existing region, that region is automatically selected.  If the click hits outside of any existing region, the user will be prompted to choose an action (Add a new region, Edit selected existing region, Edit nearest existing region, or Cancel).

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.

14. Changed: Moved the numbers to the start of the navigation alphabet (since they come before letters in the sorting).

Heads up, there is a problem if you try to install MC32 in the newly released Ubuntu 24.04 LTS...

Code: [Select]
mediacenter32 : Depends: libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 but it is not installable
Unfortunately it looks like it ships with a newer libwebkit2gtk dependency. This may be able to be worked around using installJRMC with the --compat switch in the meantime, haven't checked yet.

I tried that and I still couldn't install it.

To manually install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 there's two other dependencies it has you need to install with it. You have to manually install these three from the mantic-updates repo in order to get MC32 to install...

libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37, libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-18_2 and libicu72

Probably better to wait for a MC32 update to hopefully address this.

The update/install worked flawlessly.

Thank-you.


fwiw, I am considering replacing the Windows PC running MC in my entertainment center with the Linux flavor of MC.  Mainly because I do not want to deal with the Windows 11 hardware demands.

Smooth updates, such as this one, are making my decision easier.

Thank-you again.

Are these not part of the standard repo?
Even if one installed MC from the download link and not the repo you should still be able to do a
sudo apt -f install

Well, no, not anymore because Ubuntu 24.04 (and other favors) are using newer versions of those three dependencies and the old ones aren't installable from the Noble repos anymore. 24.04 ships with...

libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0
libjavascriptcoregtk-4.1-0
libicu74

And if you upgrade to Ubuntu 24.04 from Ubuntu 22.04 or 23.10 it'll remove those old dependencies (and maybe mediacenter32 along with it, it removed MC32 for me in my Ubuntu VM upgrading 22.04 to 24.04) during the upgrade process. And MC32 won't install until you re-install those three dependencies manually. It doesn't matter if you already have libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0, libjavascriptcoregtk-4.1-0 and libicu74 installed, MC32 requires the older ones before you can install it otherwise it errors out even with sudo apt -f install.
