This latest build of MC11.1 is here:
ftp://ftp.jriver.com/pub/downloads/music/MediaCenter111135.exe

11.1.135 (3/1/06)

1. Fixed: Podcasts were downloading the wrong number of recent episodes. (off-by-one)
2. Changed: Podcast "Episode Status" field & associated tooltips now show more than 20 different status indications.
3. Fixed: A Podcast Gigabyte is now the same as a Windows Explorer Gigabyte: 2^30 bytes.
4. Fixed: Podcast Options was not detecting a make-directory operation that failed.
5. NEW: Updated iPod support to understand latest 1GB Nano models.
6. Fixed: Podcast feeds and settins were not properly supporting Unicode characters.
7. Changed: Switched back to [Library] in the playerbar only showing the library name if a named (non "Default") library is loaded.
8. Changed: With on-the-fly encoding disabled, normalization would be applied even if it wasn't enabled. (only since build 133)
9. Fixed: Normalization during recording or ripping wouldn't properly support Unicode filenames.
10. Optimized: Greatly improved responsiveness of the program during ripping. (especially when using multiple drives and encoding processes)
11. NEW: Updated the Spanish translation. (thanks ferent!)
12. NEW: Updated the German translation. (thanks bytestar!)
13. NEW: Updated the help file.
14. Fixed: On machines where a language was never selected, MC could fail to run or uninstall.
15. New: User can select video decoder to use in HDTV.
16. Changed: Increased the head / tail silence threshold (but not inside track threshold) for "do not play silence" option. (allows cleaner gapless sound of MP3 files)

11.1.133 (2/28/06)

1. Changed: Decreased the time spent pre-buffering a file in some situations.
2. Fixed: MPC playback could crash with 32-bit output enabled.
3. Fixed: If a flash player file was played followed by an image, the image could still have the label "Flash Player" in the display bar.
4. Changed: The "Set Display" menu puts a "more choices available while playing" string at the bottom when viewed while the player is stopped.
5. Changed: The "Set Display" menu lists display plugins in alphabetical order. ("Cover Art" always at top)
6. Fixed: When dragging the volume or position slider, the tooltip and the display area would not stay perfectly in sync.
7. Changed: Reworked how the Action Window navigation pages are translated so a full list of needed strings gets exported to the Language.txt file.
8. Changed: Revised main tree control translation so things like artist and album names don't get translated.
9. Changed: Updated translation of tree controls in options so all needed strings get exported to the Language.txt file.
10. NEW: Included Portuguese translation. (thanks ChicoSelfs!)
11. Fixed: Ripping with on-the-fly encoding disabled was not working properly.
12. Changed: Dialog and window captions are now translatable.

11.1.131 (2/27/06)

1. Changed: Podcast episodes deleted during download stop downloading immediately.
2. Fixed: Temporary Podcast files created by a previous session were not all deleted on startup.
3. Fixed: In some cases, Media Center wouldn't shutdown properly.
4. Fixed: The last few bytes of audio would not always get output -- causing a pop in gapless playback. (introduced in 122)
5. Fixed: The translation system could eat trailing right-spaces in some cases. (so "Add to Playing Now" showed as "Add toPlaying Now")
6. Changed: Added improved support for WhiteCap visualization so it won't get asked for modes. (which can be slow even though WhiteCap has no modes)
7. Changed: Menu > Player > Display Options shows same options as right-clicking display. (allows configuring display and choosing a different display)
8. New: Media Center TV now (partially) supports Dvico's FusionHDTV 5 USB device. The code is generic enough so other bda HDTV cards may also work (ATSC only!). For now only live viewing and time-shifting work. No recording to disk.
9. Changed: The [Library] token in the player bar display area now shows the library name, even if the default library is loaded. (used to show nothing for the default library)
10. Fixed: Deleting a file from the burn queue wouldn't update the burn Action Window right away.
11. Fixed: In certain situations at the end of a CD burn process a "long write in progress" error was shown and the disc was not finished properly.
12. Fixed: Importing image files from a network location was very slow.
13. Fixed: Restoring a library could cause a long delay when finished.
14. Fixed: Broken link for 'Ripping a CD' on start page.
15. Changed: When there is no internet, the "Start" page shows a local page. (instead of the "internet connection needed" page)

16. Changed: Increased the head / tail silence threshold (but not inside track threshold) for "do not play silence" option. (allows cleaner gapless sound of MP3 files)

By "threshold," do you mean the "length" of the silent moment, or does this refer to the "level" of silence necessary to "not play" the section?

Thanks,

Larry

Level.

In Tools/Options/Startup  the Mode has Windowed View and Theater View swapped around (and thus do the wrong thing when selected!)

In the searchbar you can choose "Playlist" as a search modifier and it will show you all your playlists where you can make a selection.

If trying this in any other language than English, this doesn't work, you'll get an empty list then.

Confirmed + not working when applied.

Also, 'Eject after rip' is no longer working for me.  No hardware changes on my rig since it last worked (a few builds ago).  I tried deselecting and reselecting.  No plugins, but using latest alpha LAME (http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Lame_Encoder.htm).

The ability to edit handheld options no longer works without the iPods connected to the system.  With 121, once my iPods were set up in MC, I could continue to access my iPod properties on the "Handheld Options" page even if the my iPods were not connected to the system.  With 135, the "Handheld Options" page only offers this capability if the iPods are actually physically connected to the system.

I really prefered being able to access these options without the iPods connected.  Is this a bug, or was the functionality intentially changed?  I need to know which way it is going to work so if necessary, I can change the "iPod Guide" for MC 11.1 that I recently offered links to in the "Portable Players" forum.  At the moment, my instructions say that you don't have to have the iPod connected when changing the options.  Please let me know if I should change these instructions.

Thanks,

Larry

Please reboot.  The shell extensions are from the previous build.  We don't "force" a reboot when we can't copy the shell extensions because they're almost always loaded. (MS doesn't provide a way to unload them)

The ability to edit handheld options no longer works without the iPods connected to the system.  rry

This is by design.  There's information MC needs from the handheld to display the proper options that it can only get when the handheld is connected.
