Media Center 11.1.187
« on: June 16, 2006, 09:46:40 am »

This is the latest version of MC 11.1.  Your MC11.0 license will work with it.  Please post bugs here.  Please start a new thread for anything requiring discussion.  Non-bug posts will be deleted or moved.  MC11.1 is a free upgrade from MC11.0. 

If you're new to MC11, please use the build from our download page here:
http://www.jrmediacenter.com/download.html

This latest build (usually safe) of MC11.1 is here:
ftp://ftp.jriver.com/pub/downloads/music/MediaCenter111187.exe

11.1.187 (6/16/2006)

1. Fixed: MC would occasionally crash when playing certain .MOV files.
2. Fixed: Closing MC while some modeless dialogs were open (like Plugin Manager) could cause a crash.
3. Fixed: Added support for bmp, gif, jpe, jpeg, png, tif & tiff file types for iPods supporting photos.

11.1.186 (6/7/2006)

1. Changed: Pressing "Play" to play visible files when the tree was focused wouldn't honor a user search.
2. Fixed: iPod Nano model # MA353LL/A was not properly detected.
3. Changed: Library views of "Albums" no longer group all albums with the same name together.
4. NEW: Updated the Spanish translation. (thanks Alfredo!)
5. NEW: Updated the German translation. (thanks bytestar!)
6. Changed: "Album Thumbnails" are sorted internally by track number instead of the same sorting as the current view.
7. Fixed: Switching to a non-playing zone while certain visualizations were showing could cause a crash.
8. NEW: Czech language translation added. (thanks Johnny B!)

11.1.185 (5/24/2006)

1. Changed: Updated the German translation. (thanks Nick Schlüter!)
2. Fixed: aac/m4a tags that were written to the end of media files could not be read.
3. Fixed: Audible files transferring to MTP devices failing. Required WMP hotfix added to install.
4. Fixed: Streaming m4a and ra/ram/rm audio tracks from Library Server could not be played.
5. Fixed: When not playing mp4 type in DirectShow, MC could not correctly categorize mp4 as video or audio (and classified all mp4s as video).
6. Fixed: MP3 files with slightly corrupted frame data could cause an MC crash.
7. NEW: Added an Italian translation. (thanks to Marco!)

11.1.184 (5/15/2006)

1. Changed: Proprietary MusicMatch field handling could cause MC-specific fields to fail to load with some tag configurations.
2. Fixed: When simultaneous rip/encode option was disabled, the last track ripped from a CD did not get cover art associated with it.
3. Fixed: Burning transcoded CD's (mp3 or wma) was not converting to the correct format in certain cases.
4. Fixed: If mp3 encoder failed to download, transcoded CD burn could be continued anyway and result in a coaster.
5. Changed: Theater View could be slower than expected on some systems due to font auto-sizing.
6. Changed: Track Info (and other visualizations) detect meta-data changes as track changes in http:// streams.
7. Changed: Slightly increased the minimum size of the on-screen display.
8. Fixed: Files not transferring to some Windows Mobile devices successfully (WMDM Bug: MSDN article #893027).

11.1.183 (5/5/2006)

1. Fixed: With certain font anti-aliasing schemes enabled, font auto-sizing would not work as expected.

11.1.182 (5/5/2006)

1. Changed: Updated the French translation. (thanks Jean-Marc)
2. Changed: Revised the shrink mode used by the panes during auto-sizing when there isn't enough space.
3. Changed: While in windowed mode, the close and restore buttons aren't shown on the top bar. (since the window itself has them)
4. Changed: Disc numbers of 0 and 1 don't sort as equals in the panes. (but they still do in lists)
5. Fixed: The right-most column wouldn't update the horizontal scrollbar after a resize in a file list.
6. Changed: More tuning to automatic font size selection system.
7. Changed: Updated Portuguese translation. (thanks ChicoSelfs)
8. Changed: Updated all translation files to contain latest source code phrases. (now at version 2.3)
9. Changed: Added "Conductor" as a default library field. (Media Center has always saved / loaded this from MP3 tags once created, but now it'll be automatically created)
10. NEW: After manually creating the fields "Instruments", "Featured Performers", "Classical Genre", "Track Artist", doing an "Update Library (from tags)" will load proprietary MusicMatch data for these fields. (read and write support)

11.1.181 (5/3/2006)

1. Changed: Creation of start menu shortcuts would not work as expected during a non-express upgrade install.
2. Fixed: The jaggy 16x16 Media Center icon could still show in some places.

Matt

Could You Please Change The Way Media Center Saves The Duration When Used In A File Name?

For Duration: 9:25

MC Currently Saves 9_25

If You Could Just Have It Save 9m25s (and this is a file name standard for duration)

Thanks, Mark

Hi all,

deleting files with an associated cue sheet from library + harddisk will not delete the cue sheet. If all files that reside within one directory have been deleted, still the directory will not be removed due to these cue sheets still being there.
Additionally reripping will create a new cue sheet instead of overwriting the old one.

Regards, Marcus

Hello!

Bugs:
1. No open AAC+ Radio Online Streaming.
Several examples:
http://www.radioparadise.com/musiclinks/rp_64aac.m3u
http://www.streamingsoundtracks.com/aacPlus-hi.pls
http://stream.beatbox.fm:7200/listen.pls

2. Title song no refresh in Minimized Tray Icon. The problem steps out only listening Radio online streaming.
Please fix problems!!!

A few builds ago, there was some work done I believe to correct problems with small font sizes in MC. Particularily in the playback window and Theater View.

This all appears to be sorted but the OSD is still tiny on all my PC's. It's so small that I can't read it from across the room and therefore is of no use. Would it be possible to make this bigger please (ie, the size it used to be - 11.1.165 I think??). Ultimately, making the OSD size configurable would be ideal.

Thanks.

1)
MC saves the cover art (drag & dropped while playback) only if "Next" (track) or "Stop" is used (while playing that particular track). If the playback continues to next track, cover art is not saved

2)
There is a highlighting bug in the tree. When using other language than English, switching with keys "ALT" + "1-9" is confusing. For example when using the language "Czech", pressing ALT+4 (or 8 or 9) goes to the right sectin on the tree but the title of the tree section is not highlighted.
BTW I had a look into the MC Help (searching for the "ALT+" shortcuts); the section "Keyboard Hot-keys" should really be corrected because a lot of shortcuts are not valid anmyore...

3)
In Action Window "File Type Info" always shows the scrollbar even if there is a lot of space above it... (Tree is collapsed, Split View is set to 1)
File Playlists - the same
Statistics - as well
etc...
Nevertheless Tag Info works fine e.g. no scrollbar shown when not necessary.

1. Each View Scheme's sorting and often Tile spacing gets shared between schemes when changed. Each scheme is set a certain way to view Tiles in a certain order and then changed when you adjust other similar schemes. Really frustrating.

2. Any chance a more efficient handling of same name albums can be handled? I know 6 people who use my method of editing the Album Artist for Various Artist albums so they show up in the Album Artist (auto) Tiles (and not buried in Multiple Artists), and the current method creates mutliple Tiles for the same album because of the different artists contained in Artist, Album Artist, or Album Artist (auto). All the work we put in editing our comp. CDs to easily view favorite artists when browsing album artist (auto) schemes has been lost.

Not sure which is being looked at by MC, but can't MC recognize based on file structure since it keeps Multiple Artist albums in one folder by default when I user rips. Most users keep these albums in their respective folders I would think, and MC needs to establishing some kind of meta-data to associate these albums and files with Mulitple or Single Artist albums.

thanks
