19.0.135 (5/16/2014)

1. Fixed: The Rating Stars in the Standard View Playback Status were cut off when using 125% Size or greater.
2. Fixed: Starting to record a television program on a set-top-box device while watching the program live did not work (would show erroneous channel changing pop-up confirmation).
3. Fixed: Recording a television program while watching it live would result in two recordings (one might be very short).
4. Fixed: Watching a television program that was currently being recorded off a Set-top-box would result in erroneous channel-changing pop-up confirmation box.
5. Changed: Improved the loading of full resolution images in Theater View Cover views to reduce the visible sharpening effect when the thumbnail is replaced by the full resolution image.
6. Changed: Changed the way the timings for Theater View animations are calculated, which should lead to smoother animations while the GPU is busy.
7. Changed: The resolution of the cover textures in Theater View Cover Flow/List is automatically determined based on the screen resolution, instead of a hardcoded value.
8. Fixed: HTTP Live Streaming did not properly deliver a playlist on the first call to the Library Server since 19.0.133.

19.0.134 (5/13/2014)

1. Fixed: MP3 transcodes over media networking were reporting a content length 4096 bytes less than actual.  No real data was lost because of null padding at the end, but this might confuse a fussy renderer.
2. Fixed: When multiple STB channels were grouped into a single set of channels, if one device was in use, the other device might not work correctly.
3. Fixed: Installing plugins and connecting to a Library Server would fail if the User Profile Path included Unicode characters.
4. Fixed: Using "Auto Size All Columns" did not save the column width, causing the layout to reset on next load.
5. Fixed: Streaming MP3 to ChromeCast could cause playback to get stuck at the end of the file.
6. Fixed: Blu-ray/PGS subtitles could be shown too late, instead of at their appropriate display time.
7. Changed: Updated Korean language file (thanks Junghwan).

2. Fixed: MC could crash at the end of television channel scanning in some circumstances.
3. Changed: Updated German language file (thanks Bytestar).
4. Fixed: HTTP Keep-Alive support wasn't working properly in all cases.
5. Fixed: The last segment in HTTP Live Streaming could get stuck in some players due to an invalid timestamp.
6. Changed: Red October HQ uses madVR version 0.87.10.
7. Fixed: Progress reporting for video conversions was not reliable.
8. Fixed: The Prepare parameter of the MCWS File/GetFile function did not work.

19.0.132 (4/30/2014)

1. NEW: Added television subscription options "Do not record programs that have been recorded in the past" and "Do not record reruns" to television options (Tools > Options > Television > Recording).  The choices will be automatically applied to every subscription recording unless the user overrides them.
2. Changed: Increased the threshold of the pseudo-surround detection to reduce the risk of false positives.
3. NEW: Added an option to disable pseudo-surround detection in Output Format DSP.
4. Changed: There are now 5 television recording priorities (previously only 3).
5. NEW: Added television recording option "Allow setting some details when scheduling recording in Theater View".
6. NEW: Detail List Views in Standard View show Series/Season artwork as the grouping thumbnail instead of an episode thumbnail.
7. Changed: Changing the Year/Month/Day fields will cause the Date field to be written to file tags.
8. Changed: List Edit windows allow using right-click on their background to bring up a context menu, in addition to right-clicking existing entries.
9. NEW: Support for exporting playlists in the Windows Media Player Playlist format (WPL Playlist).
10. Changed: Updated New Zealand DVB-T frequency table (thanks J-a-k-e).

3. Fixed: The Installer did not properly install TV related functionality in the last couple builds.
4. Fixed: The new MCWS function Television/GetRecordingSchedule did not return intended information.

19.0.130 (4/23/2014)

1. Changed: When the user switches from Display View to Theater view to browse TV guide grid, the currently playing show will remain in a small window even if the user selects a different program in the grid.
2. Changed: Minor corrections in Chinese language files.
3. Changed: Updated Japanese language file (thanks Tsuchiya Kazuo).
4. SDK: Added MCWS/v1/Television/GetRecordingSchedule, to return a list of scheduled television recordings for the next specified number of hours.
5. Fixed: ReplayGain tags were not properly written to MP3 files during audio conversion.
6. Fixed: WASAPI notifications were not properly unregistered, which may have caused playback failure with some audio devices.
7. Fixed: SHOUTcast in Theater View was broken since early 2014 due to the service changing.
8. Changed: Removed categories from the Theater View YouTube plugin which all showed the same content.

19.0.129 (4/17/2014)

5. SDK: The MCWS web service responses set a CORS "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" header.
6. Fixed: Reading ID3v2 text tags with NULL padding could cause a semicolon to be added to the tag.

19.0.128 (4/12/2014)

2. Changed: Added more logging to TV channel scan wizard.
3. Fixed: When playing live TV on clients using tuners on a server, the Playing Now OSD did not show channel and program info.
4. Fixed: Certain WMV files did not reliably pass audio analysis.
5. Changed: MC's behavior when the 'i' button on remote control is pressed in Display View is now uniform across all playback types.  The OSD will cycle through "Position" (if available), "Playing Now" (or "Programs"), and "Description" (if any - for live TV the description of currently playing program, for other files the Description tag field).  Pressing 'i' while "Description" is showing turns off OSD.

1. Fixed: Improved handling of files with format changes during audio analysis.
2. Fixed: Video files without an audio track are handled more gracefully by the audio analysis.

19.0.125 (4/3/2014)

1. Fixed: When user presses Left or Right arrow in television guide in Theater view, super long (24 hours for example) programs could not be selected (and the selection would stay at the adjacent program on the same row).

set playing now to 'repeat current item' or 'stop after each item'
restart
playing now is set to 'repeat playing now'. so those two setting are not remembered. 'Repeat of' is though.

I just wanted to add that when I change the value in the registry in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JRiver\Media Center 19\Zones\10027\Playback (I only have 4 zones, in my reg there are like 30 )
the value sticks, which is good for now, until I change it in the player again.

so mc reads the value well, but it seems it writes only values 0 and 1 to the reg, not 2 and 3...

This is by design.  I don't think this has been changed.
