2. Changed: Further tuning of library view navigation.
3. Fixed: When starting a fullscreen video / slideshow from a library browser tile, the focus wouldn't shift to the display. (so shortcuts, etc. wouldn't work as expected)

9. Changed: MC will no longer use QuickTime to analyze m4a files.
10. Fixed: MC would not import m4a files with UNICODE characters in the path.

12. Changed: Revamped Media Library navigation system to show a full history.

Thanks!

but perhaps this should have been labeled "Fixed" since it was available in 11.0 along with the computer's IP address.

The version of the server is still reported as 1.0.34 as in MC 11.0.   Simple oversite or intentional?
