Media Center 9.0.105 beta is available.  
   
Many things will crash and not work.  If that worries you, please wait for a couple of weeks.
 
ftp://ftp.jriver.com/pub/downloads/music/MediaCenter90105.exe  
   
Changes  
   
1. Changed: When files are dragged to a CD burner drive, if at least one is a data file MC won't query for data or audio mode CD.
2. Fixed: Media Center was not able to send mp3 files as an email attachments.
3. NEW: Added Export To XML button to Library Manager
4. Fixed: Installing or restoring a license could cause mjextman.exe to hang in certain cases.
5. Fixed: If license install fails due to non-admin privilege, user is given error message to that effect.
6. Fixed: Added "Email files" and "Upload to FTP" to Send to menu
7. Fixed: Several CD-Text bugs. Particularly, artist names on a "per-track" basis weren't working.
8. Fixed: Erasing a CD-RW often resulted in an error message about "long operation in progress".
9. NEW: Added selection of appearance to InstallWizard.
10. Changed: Redesigned Library properties dialog.
11. NEW: Added lots of Hairstyle improvements -- thumbnails, alpha blending, sounds, etc. (still a work in progress)

We're still getting more bugs reported than we can fix each build. Please keep a list of bugs you find, and re-report anything that doesn't get fixed each build.  
   
Thanks for your help and support.

11. NEW: Added lots of Hairstyle improvements

Very nice!

Thank you

9. NEW: Added selection of appearance to InstallWizard.

There didn't appear to be a "Skins Disabled" option in the new wizard screen.

[RemyJ]

New: The new library properties dialog has a disabled text entry field below the location that says either "C:\\Program Files\New Library" or "homecomputer.homenet.com:81" depeneding on the type.  Neither makes any sense to me at all.
New: If no changes are made to the library properties and you press OK, you get an error complaining that "a library already exists in this location".  It should just silently complete.

[sdgrizdan]

Bugs Still Present w/ MC on my machine:

1. Volume slider still gone (win 98 issue?)
2. E-mail mp3s doesnt work (is this because I use yahoo mail via web browser? do u need to use Outlook?)
3. mpeg video files are sorted under audio
4. Auto-import doesnt work

Here's a screenshot of the latest developments on Hairstyle:



There are instructions here:
http://www.musicex.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=beta;action=display;num=1037138072

It's all xml-based so you can change it.

The lower left is Picture In Picture.

[JimH]

There's another important change.  You can now set the startup mode to "Hairstyle".

Too bad Mouseman's asleep.

[Topper]

Back again.

1) Audio analyzer still analyzing everything to 100%

Maybe I am the only one who is noticing this because I am ripping a lot of vinyl which generally seems to come in at less than 100% as opposed to CDs.

2) jpeg rotation just will not work.

I won't report these bugs again for a few builds as hopefully both the features will return as suddenly as they went.

Thanks

Love the installers ability to now ask which skin to use.

Seeing as your working on the installer PRETTY PLEASE make it so it will just install MJ and keep all the old file types that were pre-selected without us having to set them again each day.

Also - I REALLY think you should break it down into:
audio
- type 1
- type 2
- type 3
video
- type 1
- type 2
- type 3
graphic
- jpg
- gif
- bmp

etc just to make it really easy for people to quickly choose to associated MJ with each type of media.

I think you'd give yourself a lot of fans from doing it and also a lot of praise as being a responsible company to beginners by helping them out as much as possible.



I think adding a little wizard at the end for first time installers as well prompting them to set a few basic options for MJ without them having to delve into the options screen would also help you really make MJ work how people wanted it to individually right from the start.

7. Fixed: Several CD-Text bugs. Particularly, artist names on a "per-track" basis weren't working

BUG: Still getting "Various" as artist names for compilation CDs on a "per track" basis.

[sstrick]

how about a back button on the hairstyle. You go one area and you can't get back. The sounds in the hairstyles can be quite annoying when music is playing. Plus it acts really slow at times when clicking from one button to the next. A lot of the buttons don't seem to do anything either. It's a great idea though lots of potential.

[JorgeGVB]

Cannot install Watercolor MEGA-ME skins and many others.  I get a failed to install package message.

If it helps any, Amped and SonixMedia will actually install.

[cct1]

Windows ME:

Delete file from Hard Drive works perfectly now!!

Remaining Bugs:

1.  Still cannot customize toolbar  (Works fine on Windows NT)

2.  When I try to rip a data  (mp3) CD, it appears to be  copying the mp3 files to the CD, but after its finished, I get an "illegal mode for this track" error message at the end, and an empty CD.  (Haven't tried this on Windows NT)

3. Tekno Mega skin, when MC is fully expanded, is slightly cut off at the top  (the top of the jukebox in the left hand corner is missing, as is the very top of the words "Media Center" right next to it.  Nothing major, just thought I'd include it though...

4.  Not sure if this is a bug or not, maybe its a feature request:  When I click on the "Name" field when I have a smartlist open, it automatically alphabetizes all the songs--I love this feature.  However, I can't save it  (the alphabetical order). When I select "all" songs, and right click, I get a menu with "update order" on it--I click on this, and the songs go back to how they were originally  (the default appears to be the time in which they were placed in the smartlist, with earlier songs being first.)  If I don't click on it, the songs revert back to the default.  Is there some way to update the order so that MC will save the songs in alphabetical order in a smartlist, or is there some way to change the default so that it would be in alphabetical order, rather than by the time and date the song was placed in the smartlist  (which would be preferable to me)?  Some of my smartlists are large  (I'm more of a "lumper" rather than a "splitter"),  and if I could keep the songs in alphabetical order, it would make them easier to find on my ipod  (Granted, I usually use shuffle mode, but I usually will want to hear a particular song first).  Maybe there is a way to do this and I'm missing it  (perhaps there is a command I can put in the smartlist itself??)?

]Addendum:  Phydeaux set me straight on the "sort=name" command in the smartlists, so number 4 is more an issue of my lack of intelligence rather than an issue with MC 9

All in all, very nice progress!!

[Joe Karnes]

The artist are still being listed as "Various" on an audio CD burned from an MP3 list comprised of several different artist.  When the playlist contains only one artist  on all the tracks, the artist name is burned correctly.  Thank you, Joe Karnes

1. No desktop icon
2. JRiver folder in programs menu is empty

 The first two might seem trivial, but don't they show that there's something wrong with the instal procedures?

3. Audio burn fails with DAO problem
4. No volume slider
5. Ctrl++ inoperative
6. Ctrl+- inoperative
7. Ctrl+M inoperative
8. No toolbar customisation as there are no buttons     available
9. Was'nt there an option to change the burn software in settings? It does'nt show here any more.
10. Edit in properties is unbelievably slow

Since these problems have been there for about the last 8 or so releases, it's getting a bit tedious to think that there seems to be a lot of effort going into cosmetic changes whilst basic functions like the above are left outstanding ........

The "amped" skin is awesome!

1)When Mega-Me windows is Maximized the "Maximize" button in the right upper corner DOES NOT change to "restore" button.
 
2) MC9 still caches every song I ever played or burned in the Media Library.  It would be nice to at least have an option to disable it:  After playing a stream from an internet radiostation I have entries for the first song in the list as well as one entry for each time I was redirected to another server.  Also all the songs from a CD I don't even have anymore.  
 
3)Clicking a ***.rm link downloads the file instead of streaming it.  If I cut and paste the link in to "Open URL of streaming file" dialog box, the file streams fine.    
   
4)Clicking on a ***.ram link does nothing.  Again, if I cut and paste it into "Open URL of streaming file" dialog box, the file streams fine.    
   
BOTH file types are registered under MC9 in IE Folder options.    
   
5)The Playlist scrol bar does not scroll in Min-Me skins  

6) Noise, with Replay Gain enabled, in songs that are recorded at HIGHER volume than playlist average.  Clip protection is enabled.  Restarting the song usually eliminates the problem.  
   
7)If you check the remember volume setting option; MC9 does not reset it back to pre-MC9 level when the program is closed.    
 
8 ) While the scroll bars in the mega-me main window are fixed the scroll bars under options dialog box are still erratic.

Great product over all!

Lots more features then WMP9, but less intuitive/more difficult for novices interface.

I think there should be a plug-in for Real Media and Quick time so that users are not forced to download those players.  Bad enough, we all have put up with WMP.  It does not make sence to have 4 media players; especially considering that most of them are pretty intrusive, difficult to remove, and attempt to set themselves as the DEFAULT player.  

BTW, if one uses MC9 the contents of C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player (not the directory itself) can be safely removed.  This leaves all the core WMP9 code intact.  Just erases some of the player interface.

I also erased everything in the Real One directory EXCEPT for the 'rpplugins'.  And so far MC9 handles the Real Media Content pretty well this way.

Also, still more buggy then the late WMP9 betas were. Though, with a new build every day the bugs are addressed pretty quicly.  I wonder..., when is the final viersion going to be released?

MC 9.0.105
*OLD
- Auto Smartlist "Top Hits -- haven't heard for over a year" doesn't order by numberplays, so it really doesn't show any "Top Hits". Same issue for "Top Hits -- listened to today"
- Installer doesn't remove old install entries in add/remove programs. (Media jukebox entry)
- When importing mp3 files, the track# tag rewrites from 01 to 1...and no way to automatically add 0x
- Media Center is named Media Jukebox in Task Manager - Processes
- Shift-Deleting a file in Playing Now reorders the list after the current sorting order

Before:
9 Delerium Enchanted
5 Delerium Silence
1 Depeche Mode Somebody

After:
1 Delerium Enchanted
2 Delerium Silence
3 Depeche Mode Somebody

- Shift-Deleting (delete from hd checked) bugged. The player pane shows Media Center 9.0 and "buffering..." It seems that MC loses focus on which file is currently playing and especially which song comes next. The sound hangs in the end of currently playing track. If you stop and play again, you get the "Please select file to play" dialog.
EDIT: Please note that the currently playing song is NOT the same that's been deleted

- Wheel-scrolling in any list doesn't use system settings. Instead it always scroll 1 line at a time (my system setting is 3 lines to speed things up), causing scrolling through long lists a minor pain

Couple of other points:

• Library manager could do with a simple 'close' or 'ok' button just to make it obvious how to get rid of it. Expecting people to click on the X in the top right corner is not at all standard practise (minor point but still valid)
  
• Export library to XML is a nice feature - is it possible to do this with a parameter call to MJ? (ie : mediajukebox.exe /exporttoxml) - If not, could it be added.
  
• Exporting to XML just results in the screen freezing while it does it and not repainting - not a bug but just makes MJ look less stable (if you have a LOT of songs it can take a bit to export them all
  
• Would LOVE a feature to export to SQL to allow all the info to be directly ported to any database easily.
  
• On export I think there should be a list of all the fields with us aloud to check which values we want to export. We dont always want to export the whole db.

[Holden]

File | email now works for me, using Incredimail as my mail program and Opera as browser.

Editing file properties now works smoothly.

Burning CDs with several artists still lists artists as Various.

Even with set to clear recently imported file list, this does not clear.

Audio analyzing still defaults to 100%

Bugs:
1. After just one data CD-RW burn, MC still (100% of the time) locks/blocks all access to CD-RW and CD-R drives on the PC...MC nor Windows Explorer recognize the any CD inserted in the the drive(s).  Simply, stop and restart MC and drive access is back to normal.  If someone at JRiver want to send me a test utility or something to test this condition for them, please do (send it).

2. Erased a CD-RW and MC took a full minute *after* the erase finished (CD-RW ejected) to display the "Erase complete." dialog.  Can't MC display this immediately after finishing (ejecting)...MC has to know it's complete if it knew to eject the CD.

Request:
1. New toolbar icons that function like the Favorites icon (with a drop-down list) for Locate File... and Tools... options (off the track right-click menu)...two new toolbar icons.  This would provide more direct support for these options.  Maybe a feature where the last selection option is always at the top with a separator bar under it (followed by the rest of the list)...like Send To's popup menu.

• Keywords: 9.0.104 Cannot reproduce "Keywords" behaviour on any other field.
  
• Keywords: 9.0.104 Keywords entered as "hello; goodbye" are treated as "hello" and " goodbye". Note the leading space on " goodbye".
  
• Keywords: 9.0.104 Clicking on a keywords-only view scheme, does not add the rule "-keywords=[]" (ie: not empty keywords).
  
• Keywords: 9.0.104 The rule "-keywords=[]" returns everything in the DB. "keywords=[]" returns nothing.
  
• Keywords: 9.0.104 When using the wizard to search by keywords, none are listed individually and things like "war; freedom; sixties" are shown as an option, as opposed to "war", "freedom" and "sixties".
  
• Rename: 9.0.104 When renaming in the tree, any semi-colons are ignored. Renaming something to "test; hi" results in "test hi" being saved.
  
• Rename / Keywords: 9.0.104 Renaming keywords in the tree has the effect of adding the renamed keyword to the list with the old keyword still intact.
  
• Find: 9.0.104 'Duration=<60' returns nothing. Clicking on the inserted rule gives a list of all durations. Sorting on duration field (ie: clicking on the column heading or using '~sort=[Duration]') does a string sort. Duration should surely be a value rather than a string?
  
• Smartlists: 9.0.104 I have a smartlist with the following in it: "Limit: 120 minutes". When I click on the playlist, right click and choose play, the list is recalculated and another 2 hours of music is played instead of playing what is visible.
  
• Playback Filter / Smartlists: 9.0.104 A playback filter that is based on a smartlist is not refreshed after each song.
  
• Visualisation Studio: 9.0.104 When editing text elements in the display, only the initial character of what was there before is present. New text is saved properly, but the same happens again when you try to edit it.
  
• Visualisation Studio: 9.0.104 None of the custom fields work in the display.
  
• Visualisation Studio: 9.0.104 The "YEAR" keyword does not work as expected.
  
• Visualisation Studio: 9.0.105 After creating a customised visualisation, and changing views, any attempt to return to playing now results in Media Center crashing without error notice.
  
• Visualisation Studio: 9.0.104 It is impossible to change the visualisation if MC is not playing anything. Given the bug above, the only result is to uninstall the Vis Studio.
  
• Top Hits / Recently Played: 9.0.104 Properties for "Top Hits" and "Recently Played" are no longer there.
  
• Auto Smartlists 9.0.104 In version 9.0.101 clicking on the root entry did not result in any delay. Now with version 9.0.104 there is a delay of one or two seconds before the list shows.
  
• Auto Album Analyser: 9.0.104 I have two copies of track 2 from a CD. I don't have any other tracks from the CD and yet it appears under "Single Artist (complete)".
  
• Auto Album Analyser: 9.0.104 Albums that have many artists, but are split into multiple directories, are listed under "Single Artist (incomplete)".
  
• Auto Album Analyser: 9.0.104 Single tracks are listed under "Single artist (incomplete)". A large amount are actually from multiple artist CD's. Consider having a "Single Tracks" entry?
  
• Audio Analyser: 9.0.104 Has "Media Jukebox" in dialog.
  
• Audio Analyser: 9.0.104 Files which had previously been put through MP3Gain and which subsequently had replay gain levels of approx -5dB, are now being reanalysed to get values of approx -12dB. Most other files are remaining approximately the same with changes of up to 1 or 2dB at the most.
  
• Audio Analyser: 9.0.104 All files that are being analysed are being given a Peak level of 100%.
  
• Audio Analyser: 9.0.104 I have two copies of the song "A Little Respect" by the original artist Erasure and the cover by Wheatus which both sound similar. However, the Erasure track has an intensity of 1 and the Wheatus track has an intensity of 5. Both should be sitting on an intensity of about 3 or 4.
  
• Audio Analyser / Replay Gain / DSP Studio: 9.0.99 When analysing songs, open the DSP studio, with replay gain enabled. Play a track and wait for the analyser to finish a song. Notice as the replay gain for the current track jumps to +100dB. No noticeable volume change, though. Also, when "Automatic based on current playlist" is selected, this changes to 100dB too. The net result is 200dB increase...The increase is not implemented!
  
• Audio Analyser / Library Change: 9.0.104 Changing the current library while analysing audio causes MC to crash.
  
• Playback: 9.0.99 Playing a mono mp3 file the most appalling buzz eminates from Media Centre.
  
• Library: 9.0.101 When switching libraries, the target quick drop retains its setting from the previusly loaded library.
  
• System Info: 9.0.104 Software reported as being "Media Jukebox PLUS"
  
• Program Installation: 9.0.104 Software fails to remember previous settings when performing custom installation.

• Ripping: 9.0.101 Custom / extended fields are not copied from the CD information to the ripped files.
  
• Keyboard Navigation: 9.0.101 Tab eventually ends up as a cycle between the tree on the left and the search bar when viewing playlists or media library, and between tree and tracks when in playing now.

BUG: Still getting "Various" as artist names for compilation CDs on a "per track" basis.

Oops!  
A component (cdmanager.dll) failed to make it into last night's build. Sorry about that. Please try the next build and the "per track" artists should come out right.

For the CD's you burned with last nights build, if you delete them from MC's database, then re-insert them with the next build installed, it will read the artists correctly.

Windows ME:
2.  When I try to rip a data  (mp3) CD, it appears to be  copying the mp3 files to the CD, but after its finished, I get an "illegal mode for this track" error message at the end, and an empty CD.  (Haven't tried this on Windows NT)

I assume you are burning a CD rather than ripping. Could you post your system info (from MC's help menu)? Is the CD really empty, or is it partially written so it's unusable afterwards? Have you tried reading the burned CD after restarting MC (or rebooting)?

Thanks!

[Autoelph]

It just keeps getting more stable, and I can be very demanding on my system, but MC9 just keeps trudging along, very nice.

An update on my RAM situation...I'm the one who has been monitoring this since .98, when RAM usage went through the roof. After installing .101 when RAM usage on my dedicated MC system was at 104M, I then updated the library and checked "remove files which do not exist". This brought the RAM down to about 78M, so keep those libraries clean. Now, in .105, my RAM has dropped to about 73M, and this is after adding to my library and assigning a lot of album art, so the RAM situation is getting better. I realize that MC9's ability to be much faster than other progs with my size library has to do with the RAM consumption, but 73M is still a hog for most people who will not be running a dedicated system as I am.

Also confirming:

1. Some skins won't load (although "amped" loaded fine)

2. Analyzer still giving everything 100%. This has been present since .99, maybe even .98

Thanks guys, very nice work, love hairstyle but is the name final? I'm bald for pete's sake!

Yes--trying to burn my mp3's to CD to back them up--my bad, I was tired when I was typing that....Thanks for the response--I'll put my system menu up later  (I'm at my office until later this afternoon).

I didn't try completely rebooting, but when I closed/restarted MC, the burned CD appears empty on the tree.  The first time I tried it, I think MC put something on the CD, because it was unusable, but nothing showed up on the tree.  I tried it again, with a fresh CD for giggles, and on the second try, I don't think it did anything--I think the CD was untouched. What is so weird about it is that it really looked like all the data was copying, then at the end I got that error message....

And thanks again Phydeaux for smartlist help...

[Autoelph]

Working in "skin disabled" mode, get weird rendering when grabbing scroll bar in media library main window. Gray box comes out and covers left side of pane until selecting a file or refreshing window.

[Autoelph]

oops, I meant gray bar comes out of RIGHT SIDE of pane, my bad.

[Oogi]

Hey.

I've downloaded the new MC9 and i have a problem writing in hebrew in the searching area in the Media Library.

Another thing,
How do I buy it, if I alredy have the 7 license?
Can I just upgrade it?

Thanks

Hello,

"Please keep a list of bugs you find, and re-report anything that doesn't get fixed each build. "

Where? Here...?

When inserting a first CD I get normal CDDB info.
When inserting a 2nd CD, after trying to connect with
CDDB I get some error 'due to CD-status'.
When inserting a 3rd CD, I get the same error.

When inserting the 2nd CD,but using another ripper,
such as Audiograbber, I get correct CDDB-info.

Then re-inserting the 2nd CD whilst using MC9, I get
the correct CDDB-info.

Closing MC9 and re-starting does not change anything,
during the first session.

This has happened quite a lot of times whilst using MC9.
(the MC9-version prior to 105)

Donot know whether this 'bug' is fixed in 105. Still have to install this version.

Any idea???

The new hairstyle is pretty funky!!

Here are a few things relating to it...

• The new functions are cool but it is a lot slower than before.  I am guessing this will be ironed out as it is developed.
  
• Could there be an option for the sounds?? Thye can be kinda annoying
  
• The new thumbnail view is great but if you navigate to an image view scheme that contains access to the actual images eg Album/Name it would be nice if the thumbnail changed to show the complete picture
  
• Could a slideshow be activated in the thumbnail area while music is playing?? The new pip is very samll to show slideshow pics and if you dont wanna see thumbnails at that point then the thumbnail area seems very wasted...
  
• If a skin fails to load (which lets face it all of them apart from the default will since the changes) the box comes up to say it has failed to laod but there is then no way to access hairstyle again.  The only way is to press escape twice to get back to normal view then restart hairstyle.
  

More as I think of it

It appears some of the mega me skins are failing because MC is trying to install them in the mini skins diriectory.  After trying to install Watercolour and being told it had failed I was left with watercolour folders in my miniskins directory even tho these are MEGA ME skins...

Hope this helps...

I tried rebooting too; it didn't make any difference...

Love the installers ability to now ask which skin to use.

Seeing as your working on the installer PRETTY PLEASE make it so it will just install MJ and keep all the old file types that were pre-selected without us having to set them again each day.

Also - I REALLY think you should break it down into:
audio
- type 1
- type 2
- type 3
video
- type 1
- type 2
- type 3
graphic
- jpg
- gif
- bmp

etc just to make it really easy for people to quickly choose to associated MJ with each type of media.

I think you'd give yourself a lot of fans from doing it and also a lot of praise as being a responsible company to beginners by helping them out as much as possible.



I think adding a little wizard at the end for first time installers as well prompting them to set a few basic options for MJ without them having to delve into the options screen would also help you really make MJ work how people wanted it to individually right from the start.

THIS WOULD BE FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!  I have to keep specifying the proper checkboxes each install and this would be a tremendous help!!

Problem in .105 CD Burning.
When "start" is selected to begin a CD Burn a box pops up asking: Are you sure you want to cancel this operation"  If you select yes, it cancels, if you select no, nothing happens.

Biggest Bug = Search Bar
This still has really eratic behaviour and is hard to edit manually (ie just by typing info into it after it has initially been typed).

• Type something in, click on a song, then click on the end of the search bar and try to drag to the front to highlight it all - this wont work - you have to make sure you set the cursor to be EXACTLY at the end of the word then drag it to make this work.
  
• pasting into the search bar totally replaces what's there even if it's not highlighted.
  
  There were some others but I cant remember them off hand and maybe you've already fixed them. THese are the two biggest ones remaining.
  
  Also - having the 'copy' and 'paste' under 'advanced' tools is really off putting and awkward. It should be right there as this is standard windows practise and is totally expected as the norm.
  A bit like getting in a car and the brake had been moved to a button on the steering wheel - might be a nice idea but just not easy to just start using and find yourself instantly comfortable with.

[Shelly]

Bugs still present:

• Library backup still not working.  Receive message: "Failed to backup info."  
  
• Unable to import .mpc files - MC crashes when getting decoder. - Understand this is being worked on - thanks.
  
• CD Labeler is not recognizing internal artwork.

Continuing Request

• Change closing of CD Labeler from automatic to manual.

- The slider in File Properties (state docked or not, doesn't matter) flickers between skinned and windows standard when dragged or clicked

[MarkCoutinho]

Bugs still present:

1) I still don't get the ö, é, è etc. Is this just my problem? Because from some other reactions I see that they do not have that problem. I hadn't this problem up til version 0080 or something like that.
Jim/Matt: please react.

2) When sending a mp3 to the Media Editor, I don't get further than the Decoding-box, which doesn't do anything. Was good before version 0080 (or something like that)

3) Slide bars don't work (well) in various playlists. Also: if the slider works, it isn't quick enough. Very annoying!

4) if you want to drag a file within a playlist, the screen runs from the end to the beginning.
I'll try to explain it a bit: if you have, say, 300 files in a playlist and you want to put number 300 to number 80: when you start dragging you're at position number 1 within 1 second. Some quick jerking with the mouse is required to get to the number 80 position

Some new bugs I've encountered.

• I just burnt about 12 CD's, telling MC to use DSP and crossfade settings. Crossfade was set to standard, and DSP only had Replay Gain on. The resulting CD's start off ok, but about mid-way through, tracks start overlapping in the sense that the song for one track will end, and before it changes tracks the next song begins. That song then ends midway through the next track, and on until the CD ends up with one final track that only has the tail-end of a song and then silence.
  
  
• Mega-me skins won't install. Instead I get the INSTALLSKIN failed message.
  
  
• When trying to install anything through our proxy server, I get a login box, then MC's package installer just say "Connecting" and never does anything. I have to end task to get it to go away.
  
  
• Video's aren't scaling to the display window size on track change. If I switch to either full screen or normal, the video resizes accordingly, but when the track changes, the next video isn't scaled to fit. Instead it's whatever it's real size is.
  

[ZRocker]

Bugs:
1. When using Windows Explorer and the shell extension to 'Add to Playing Now' (right-click menu), if MC is not started at the time...the track(s) are not added to Playing Now (MC starts and that's it).

2. When playing .AVIs and MC finishes playing a track or AVI and switching to playing a new AVI, the output video window always shows the video in the upper lefthand corner.  You have to resize or change the output window (full, windowed, internal) to 'wakeup' MC and get the video output centered/displayed correctly.

Update:  I tried again after using "test mode" first, and something even weirder is happening--it appears that attempting to copy mp3s to disc is generating a playlist  (and I think its supposed to do this), but the mp3's themselves aren't anywhere to be found on the disc.  It's empty except for the playlist.  Through various attempts, I now have a set of 6 CD coasters, if anyone is interested in purchasing them....

Are you viewing the contents of the CD in Media Center or in windows explorer? Remember that in Media Center when you click on the CD in the tree, only the top level files are displayed, so only the playlist.m3u file would be displayed. You have to expand the tree item to see the mp3 files, since they are in sub-folders.

You have to expand the tree item to see the mp3 files, since they are in sub-folders.

I've looked at the contents in both, tried expanding the folder--there's no mp3s in it, and the disc itself shows only the size of the mp3 playlist folder  (meaning there's not like 500,000 mb of data on the disc--only the size of the relatively small playlist folder).

[Autoelph]

RAM update:

MC actually uses less memory the more I use it. When first loading MC, the RAM usage is still nearly 100M with a clean and tidy library, but after a bunch of regular functions (playlisting, organizing, tagging) during the course of the day the usage goes down almost 25%. So if I leave it on all night, will it actually put two more RAM strips in my empty slots while I sleep?
