2. Changed: Red October uses the latest LAV filters (v0.37).
3. Fixed: Playback of DVD on Android using Gizmo was not working properly in some cases.
4. Changed: Reverted this change from 16.0.152: Media Network, updated user agent header to be more standard.

16.0.179 (9/28/2011)
1. Fixed: Parametric Equalizer could fail to save changes in some cases.

16.0.178 (9/26/2011)

2. Fixed: VOB playback with no accompanying IFO was not working properly.
3. Fixed: VOB subtitle streams that were resized independently of the movie could appear in the wrong location.
4. Fixed: JRSS downmixing could have too high of an output level.

1. Changed: Improved DVB-T channel scanning for UK and other European countries.
2. Fixed: The option "Keep only x episodes" of television subscription recordings did not work (no recordings were ever deleted).
3. Fixed: Random-type smartlists were not refreshing properly when browsing with DLNA.
4. Changed: Red October uses LAV CUVID 0.13.

16.0.176 (9/15/2011)
1. Fixed: When a file previously marked as bad was later imported, it would not have its name filled automatically.
2. Fixed: Having the auto-import option to 'Update for external changes' disabled could (still) lead to problems with files that were marked as bad.

16.0.175 (9/13/2011)
1. Changed: Red October uses LAV 0.35 filters.
2. Fixed: Zooming into the selected thumbnail would not work properly if the scroll position was at the top of the list.

5. Changed: Auto-import works better with removed and bad files when the options to 'Update for external changes' and 'Fix broken links' are disabled.
6. Changed: Doing 'Update Library (from tags)' on a file in the bad database will move the file out of the bad location into the main database if it succeeds.
7. Fixed: Screen grabbing of videos wouldn't work properly for some types.
8. Changed: After tagging Media Center explicitly sets the last modified time of the tagged file instead of assuming the file system will do it automatically (because network file systems are sometimes slow to update automatically).

16.0.174 (9/12/2011)
1. Fixed: Files that got imported while they were in the process of downloading or copying could get stuck in the 'bad database' location.
2. Changed: Media Center is better at automatically selecting forced subtitle streams in videos.
3. Fixed: DLNA. A change made in 16.0.111 caused MC to return a slightly different URL in status calls than was originally provided by MC's DLNA server (when the same instance of MC was being used as the server and renderer). This caused undesirable behavior for some control points (i.e. PlugPlayer).
4. Changed: Red October nicely handles the case where video acceleration with DXVA or LAV CUVID is supported by the decoder but not the renderer (previously playback would fail in this case).
5. Changed: All files & folders are now copied from Blu-ray discs during a rip, rather than just the BDMV files.
6. Changed: If a Blu-ray reader isn't available on the system, an informative error message is now displayed when a rip is attempted.

2. Fixed: Disc was not ejecting following a DVD or BD rip, even though option was selected.
3. Changed: In the rip action window, pressing the ENTER key after typing a name for a DVD/BD disc will commence the ripping process.
4. Changed: When ripping DVD/BD discs, if the rip destination folder already contains files, the user is prompted on whether it's ok to overwrite them prior to starting the rip.

16.0.171 (9/8/2011) 1. Fixed: DLNA. A change made in 16.0.111 caused MC to return a slightly different URL in status calls than was originally provided by MC's DLNA server (when the same instance of MC was being used as the server and renderer). This caused undesirable behavior for some control points (i.e. PlugPlayer).
2. NEW: Blu-ray disc ripping. Same requirements as for disc playback: must have ANYDVD HD or other Blu-ray reader software installed.
3. Changed: Media subtype of "Movie" is automatically set on all DVD/BD rips.
4. Fixed: When DVD and BD discs were swapped in and out of the drive several times, a Media Center crash could occur.
5. Changed: Nicer view header info when viewing BD & DVD discs.
6. Changed: DVD/BD rips bring up "Get Movie Info" dialog after clicking the Rip button if no meta-data has been entered for the movie.
7. Changed: When the media insertion dialog pops up for a DVD/BD and "Rip" is chosen, the rip action window appears allowing the user to modify the movie name rather than having the rip start up immediately.

1. Fixed: Some WMV videos (for example the Windows 7 sample video Wildlife.wmv) wouldn't play on Android.
2. Changed: Red October will use EVR as the default renderer when it is available on XP (instead of VMR 9).
3. Changed: Software deinterlacing is disabled when using EVR in favor of the hardware-based deinterlacing that EVR provides.

16.0.169 (9/1/2011)
1. Fixed: Movies weren't showing up under genre categories for Netflix in Theater View (Netflix had changed their genres).
2. Fixed: Closing the Smartlist editor while a drop box was open showing its content could lead to a crash.
3. Fixed: Rotten Tomatoes JSON parsing could hang when it encountered escaped quotation marks.
4. Fixed: DVD bookmark loading wasn't working in some cases.
5. Fixed: List style customization could present the wrong choices when using tree navigation of library views.
6. Fixed: Netflix TV series not adding to instant queue when requested (still have to restart MC before seeing them in the queue).

16.0.168 (8/31/2011)

2. Changed: Added support for more view header skin colors so the header and body can use different color schemes (HeaderTextColor, HeaderHotTextColor, ActiveTabTextColor).
3. NEW: Bad / corrupt files get imported to a special database location so that the files won't get analyzed over and over with each import (smartlist ~d=b shows files).
4. Fixed: Showing the import dialog could crash in rare cases.

16.0.163 (8/26/2011)
1. Fixed: The 'Language' on screen display was not working for DVD playback.

7. Changed: Minor tweak to how playback checks for file system permissions and ownership when starting playback.
8. NEW: DSP Studio > Parametric Equalizer has two user channels that can be used to hold temporary data. For example, you could combine Left and Right into User 1, equalize User 1, and then add the result to the Subwoofer.
9. NEW: Subtitles are fully supported when converting for Gizmo (sizing, position, and subtitle selection honor playback settings).

16.0.157 (8/22/2011)
1. Fixed: DVD playback could start with a black screen.
2. Fixed: Expressions using /# #/ to mark unescaped text could still have certain characters get escaped.
3. Changed: Renamed expression function RegexSearch(...) to Regex(...).
4. Changed: Regex(...) captures for the last run Regex(...) are accessible with variables [R1], [R2], up to [R9].
5. Changed: Regex(...) can be used to perform a test by setting the last parameter to 0 (the default) and it will return 0 or 1.
6. Changed: Regex(...) uses case insensitive regular expression matching.

16.0.155 (8/18/2011)
1. Changed: When a file type that's normally a video has its media type set to audio (normally because it doesn't contain a video stream), it will be played with the audio engine instead of playing as a video with no display.
2. Changed: LAV Audio decoder is used for WTV files when possible (may cause WTV playback to fail until the next build when LAV will be updated).
3. Fixed: Issuing an image playback command from the web service while audio was playing and images were already showing could cause the view mode to toggle.
4. NEW: Reworked how pane filtering works when 'Filter in both directions' is enabled so that each pane is filtered by all other panes and the order filters are applied does not matter (feedback welcome).
5. NEW: Added RegexSearch(...) expression function that allows using regular expressions to parse any value.

7. Changed: Chapters are disabled when playing a video that has a playback range (previously chapters could interfere with the playback range).
8. Changed: Renamed 'Store in file tags' to 'Save in file tags' on the library field dialog to make the naming more consistent with the field filter selections.
9. NEW: Subtitle shift and size can be set per file, and settings will be saved between plays and runs.
10. Changed: Mouse panning with click-n-drag and mouse zooming with the mouse wheel works with Ctrl or Shift pressed (previously each required one of the two keys, and the keys were different).
11. Changed: Reworked how the 3D drawing redraw mechanism works to hopefully fix an issue where timers could get starved and not run due to the drawing (feedback welcome).
12. NEW: The 'Virtual Subwoofer' effect sounds better (includes Subclarity, steeper roll-off, and better clip-prevention).

16.0.153 (8/15/2011)

9. Changed: Red October video converter better supports mid-stream audio format changes.
10. NEW: Red October video conversion is used for DLNA when using the MPEG2/DVD video format. Allows playback of Blu-ray, JTV, and most any other video on a PS3, WDTVLive, etc.

2. Changed: Updated the French language translation (thanks to Dominique COMET).

16.0.149 (8/9/2011)
1. Changed: The view header for a panes view will show the view name in the view header instead of 'Panes'.
2. Changed: When the tree is hidden, the view header menu includes the same 'Library Views' submenu as is in the View menu of the program (a separate breadcrumb is no longer displayed when the tree is hidden).
3. Fixed: RemoveCharacters(...) expression with mode 0 was not removing character occurrences from inside the string.
4. Changed: Added mode 3 to RemoveCharacters(...) to remove characters from the front and end of the value.

2. Changed: The core function that validates and fixes filenames removes double-slashes.
3. Changed: When editing the filename field by hand, the user-entered filename will be cleaned before attempting to apply the filename (previously the change would fail and the value would be reverted).
4. Changed: Transparency for glass-style skins is supported in the player bar display area (updated Noire Glass as an example).
5. NEW: Playback range is supported for video playback.
6. Fixed: When using the Vista / Windows 7 system volume method, the volume would not bind to the proper sound card line in some cases when starting playback until after audio was playing, making it so volume protection could update the volume for the wrong zone.

2. Changed: Updated all language files to have the latest strings from the source code, and to remove any orphan strings.
3. Changed: An optical Blu-ray disk will not get reanalyzed (which could revert the name to Blu-ray Movie) when reinserted.
4. Fixed: The program was not asking for optical discs by name when trying to play an imported disc that wasn't in any drive (only applies to last few builds).
5. NEW: Added Options > Video > Hardware accelerate video decoding when possible. It will try LAV CUVID (requires nVidia card), and also DXVA (requires EVR renderer instead of madVR).

16.0.145 (8/2/2011)
1. Changed: Removed the Subtitles > On / Off menu choice that would appear for videos with no subtitles (ffdshow didn't specify if subtitles existed, but the internal subtitle engine solves this).

1. Fixed: The DVD menu button on the remote would not work while playing a DVD (only applies to the last few builds).
2. Fixed: Fast forwarding a DVD to the menu would leave the playback rate display stuck (only applies to the last few builds).
3. Changed: Improved performance of hardware accelerated drawing engine used by Theater View, image playback, etc. with devices that could stall when testing for device lost states.
4. Fixed: When starting an image slideshow, the caption (if enabled in Options > Images) would not appear for the first image.

1. Fixed: YouTube support was not working due to YouTube server changes.
2. Changed: Improved how the playback position display works so that it both appears smoother and uses fewer resources.
3. Changed: The merge of video and DVD playback code is finished. Please report any problems.
4. Changed: Revised the right-click menu layout for video / DVD playback.
5. Changed: Updated to version .31 of LAV audio and splitter directshow filters. LAV audio now handles DTS-WAV files nicely.
6. Changed: For ffdshow auto-config, we're now setting flag titled 'multiThread' to 1 as well as 'numThreads' to number of processors. May be needed since ffmpeg-mt was merged with libavcodec??
7. Changed: Updated German language file (thanks Bytestar).
8. Changed: Video resolutions not explicitly supported by the display will still be listed in Options > Video > Display Settings.

16.0.142 (7/28/2011)

2. NEW: Television recording option to specify the max number of episodes to keep for a particular subscription.
3. Internal: Merging of video and DVD playback engines (still a work in progress, DVD playback may be problematic for a few builds).

16.0.141 (7/27/2011)
1. Fixed: IR learning was not working properly.
2. Changed: Updated madVR to version v0.71 (fixes green tint in Red October HQ).

4. Changed: Tuning to instructions added in build 140 (only shown once per run, larger font size, better bubble sizing, etc.)
5. Changed: JRWorker will try to use EVR in thumbnail building if it is found on the computer. Previously JRWorker only tries to use EVR on Vista or higher OS's.
6. NEW: The sidecar subtitle selection will persist between plays, just like it does for stream-based subtitle selection.
7. NEW: When showing a message box in Display View when the last used user-interface mode was Theater View, the message box will be a Theater View style message instead of a Standard View style message.
8. Faster: Artist thumbnail views load much faster (previously switching to an artist view would wait while the cover art folder was analyzed but now this happens in a low-priority background thread; especially helpful if cover art is on a drive that spins down).
9. Changed: Display modes with an integer refresh rate of 23 or lower would not appear in Media Center.
10. NEW: When multiple playlists are selected in the tree, they can be deleted with a right-click.

5. Changed: When viewing a list of television recordings in Theater View from the same series, 'Watch' plays a single episode and 'Watch All' is offered to play all episodes (starting at the selected episode).

16.0.139 (7/25/2011)
1. Changed: Updated madVR to version v0.70.

4. NEW: Updated the ffdshow used by Red October to the latest version.
5. Changed: Video width and height are filled in during import time, with expectation that more accurate values may be found later at thumbnailing time. Previously we only fill in the values at thumbnailing time.

16.0.136 (7/21/2011)
1. Fixed: Party Mode was allowing a user to switch libraries.
2. Fixed: If Theater View failed to create a 3D device (due to madVR exclusive mode, etc.) it could lead to a crash.
3. Changed: madVR is auto-configured when first installed or when upgraded by Red October (user configuration performed after that will be preserved).
4. Changed: When LAV CUVID fails to connect to a video format with Red October HQ, a different decoder will automatically be used (previously it could result in a playback error).

4. NEW: Updated to version .30 of LAV audio and splitter directshow filters.
5. NEW: Updated to version .67 of madVR video renderer filter.
6. NEW: VideoClock slaves the audio exactly to the refresh rate of madVR using IMadVRRefreshRateInfo instead of running a separate monitoring thread (better accuracy, better performance, and no need for a device that can cause problems with exclusive mode).
7. Fixed: Audio track selection on DVD sources wasn't always working when sending to dlna and handheld devices.

16.0.131 (7/15/2011)
1. NEW: Added native support for SSA, ASS, and ASS2 text-based subtitle formats.

16.0.129 (7/11/2011)
1. Changed: BDMV import now analyzes the physical file so that compression information, frame rate, duration, etc. are gathered (use Update Library (from tags) on existing BDMV files).
2. Fixed: Bookmarking would not be used for videos with no duration.
3. Fixed: Pseudo-surround detector could false positive in some cases.
4. Fixed: Possible hang from a circular reference when a relational field contained stacked files.
5. Fixed: Improved performance of the database when it contains many relational fields.
6. Fixed: DLNA conversion to MPEG2/DVD with PS3 compat switch set wasn't working on the PS3.
7. Changed: Parametric Equalizer changes are saved as they are made instead of at shutdown (so a crash won't cause settings to be lost).
8. Changed: When editing Parametric Equalizer parameters, the changes are applied after a user stops making changes for a bit (so typing "200" won't first load "2" then "20" then "200").
9. Fixed: Options > Video > Bitstreaming could show the incorrect value.
10. Fixed: Right-click menu did not work properly when time-shifting on certain analog television tuners.
11. Changed: Only the most recent "New Media Action" dialog is shown.

11. Changed: Using oggenc 2.87.

16.0.126 (7/6/2011)
1. NEW: Added support for gapless AAC playback (requires iTunSMPB header).

5. Changed: Updated Russian translation file (thanks to Vladimir).
6. NEW: Added a video playback option to allow compensating for audio / video synchronization issues due to input lag, custom DSP processing, etc. (Options > Video > Advanced > A/V sync correction milliseconds).
7. Fixed: Analyzing audio with multiple files at a time could lead to a hang.
8. Fixed: Pressing TAB in an edit-style option could lead to unexpected results.
9. Faster: Improved performance of core audio engine.

16.0.124 (6/30/2011)
1. NEW: When controlling a DLNA device, if the device is turned off and later turned on, playback will resume. Allows picking a mix playlist and then turning a device on and off to control music without requiring additional user interaction.
2. Fixed: Some complex expressions could fail to save properly in the recent list of the 'Rename, Move, & Copy Files...' dialog.
3. Fixed: Options > Services listed YouTube playback bitrate twice.

5. Fixed: Theater View would not stay minimized properly when running external programs.
6. Changed: Reduced the maximum allowable primary buffering for DirectSound, Kernel Streaming, WaveOut, and WASAPI from 5 seconds to 1 second (500ms or less is recommended).
7. Fixed: Manufacturer name for JRService.exe was showing as "Unknown" in msconfig and other utilities for viewing services.
8. Changed: The DLNA server will not try to convert URL's in the database even if conversion is forced. This allows URL's (like streaming radio) to be played on devices that support it (like WDTV).
9. Changed: The TiVo server will not try to convert URL's in the database even if conversion is forced. This should allow mp3 URL's (like shoutcast) to be played. Needs testing.
10. Changed: Improved internal volume mode handling for video and DVD playback.

16.0.123 (6/29/2011)
The same as 16.0.122 (numbering error)

16.0.122 (6/29/2011)
1. Changed: Added handling of DTS-in-WAV files with a .wav extension so that they always get decoded instead of playing as noise (automatic decoding via LAV Audio hopefully coming soon).

1. Changed: When using Red October with additional filters, if a selected decoder will not connect, the standard Red October decoder will be used instead (previously playback would just fail).
2. Fixed: DLNA Push to WDTV renderers wasn't working. Broken since build 16.0.15
3. Changed: Right-click on a playing video always shows a 'Screen Grab' menu and when the commands aren't available (like with madVR, or when not paused with VMR), the menu contains an explanation.
4. Changed: Removed DVD option for ffdshow post processing (you can instead use FFDShow Raw as an additional filter if this is desired).
5. Fixed: If files were deleted from the database on a Library Server Client while a background library server sync was occurring, it could cause a crash.
6. Changed: More efficient loading / unloading of Red October filters.
7. Fixed: With Library Server authentication enabled, other copies of Media Center running on the network would not reliably discover the server.
8. Faster Television seeking (applies to recorded and time-shifted playback).

16.0.118 (6/23/2011)
1. SDK: The skinning engine supports selecting the view header background color when inactive by using ViewHeader::InactiveHeaderBackgroundColor in the skin.
2. Changed: Bitrate monitor filters no longer show in the custom filter list (they are managed by Red October instead).
3. Fixed: Time-shifted television playback did not honor advanced video filter selection.
4. Changed: Moved the submenu arrow on a menu to the left a little so that it doesn't look crowded on skins with a rounded menu selection graphic.
5. Fixed: The subwoofer controls could be disabled on DSP Studio > Output Format when using the new 2.1 output mode.
6. Changed: MC16.exe /MCC accepts the parameter formatting [value]:[zone index] for easier multi-zone usage. (i.e. MC16.exe /MCC 10020, 25:2)
7. Fixed: When switching input formats, the option to move the center channel to the front speakers could work incorrectly.

16.0.117 (6/22/2011)

9. Fixed: The ground was not drawing properly in the 3d spectrum analyzer visualization.

16.0.111 (6/14/2011)
1. Fixed: If you turned off JRSS without first unchecking "Move center to front L/R," it would still move the center to the front L/R even though the check box is greyed out.
2. Changed: Selecting chapters from the on screen display (OSD) happens when pushing left and right instead of requiring an enter key.
3. Faster: Loading or switching views in Theater View is faster.

16.0.108 (6/10/2011)
1. Fixed: Using volume up / down on a remote while the volume was disabled (bitstreaming, Netflix, etc.) and the volume was set to 'Internal' would result in the volume being set to 0%.
2. NEW: Added 'Volume Protection' volume option ( more information here: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=64574 ).
3. Changed: Tuned JRSS 7.1 upmixing algorithm (better energy neutrality, and front mains are not used to generate the rears).
4. Changed: Using 'Clone side channels to rear speakers' in Output Format will copy surrounds to the rear speakers in 5.1 to 7.1 mixing.
5. Fixed: When connecting to a Library Server that required a password, the program could require clicking 'Retry' to finish the connection even if the entered password was correct.

1. Fixed: Smartlists with both OR conditions and implied AND conditions would not work nicely with the smartlist editor. Example: ((a b) or (c d))
2. Changed: Switched 'Red October' to 'Red October Standard' so that naming is more clear between Standard and HQ.
3. Changed: When playback is started remotely (with Gizmo, etc.), popups requesting the installation of an external playback engine like QuickTime will be suppressed.
4. Changed: When viewing a playlist using a library view, the order of the playlist will be preserved when possible in Theater View views.
5. Changed: DLNA control. If GetVolume fails the volume control will be disabled instead of removing the renderer from the list of zones. This is to accomodate DLNA renderers that can't control volume when plugged into external AV equipment.

1. Changed: Subtitles named "(auto)" that match the audio language will be enabled by default (instead of selecting no subtitles).
2. Changed: Added the Microsoft MPEG audio and video decoders to the Red October white list.
3. Fixed: If a video failed to import (because it was corrupt, etc.), it could cause other files of that type to not import until the program was restarted.
4. Changed: When a video fails to fully parse, it's less likely to end up being imported as 'Data' instead of 'Video'.
5. Fixed: Doing fast seeks on time-shifted television could cause the seeks to queue up instead of pooling, so that video would continue seeking too long after stopping pressing buttons on the remote.
6. Changed: Mouse wheel over video seeks instead of zooms (use Ctrl+Wheel to zoom).
7. Changed: LAV source/splitter is now configured in Red October mode.

16.0.104 (6/6/2011)
1. Changed: Red October HQ uses madVR v0.62.
2. Fixed: MC crashed when right-clicking on a playing video and selecting ffdshow configuration. It's back to disabled in Red October mode.
3. Fixed: madVR would fail to create a 3d device when starting time-shifted television from Theater View.
4. Fixed: In Theater View, Netflix genre views were incorrectly using details list style instead of thumbnails.
5. Changed: Updated Korean language file (thanks to Junghwnan).

16.0.103 (6/3/2011)
1. Changed: Improved how VideoClock works with signal breakups on over-the-air broadcasts.
2. Fixed: DSP Studio > Room Correction was using the incorrect channel order for the rear and surrounds with 8-channel output.
3. NEW: Parametric Equalizer can be used to add a configurable delay to any channels.
4. Changed (again): Red October will not use the Microsoft MPEG decoder with madVR because then no deinterlacing is performed for 1080i, etc. signals.
5. Fixed: The 'My TV'. 'My Music', etc. buttons on an MCE remote were not working (note that renaming or moving the stock Theater View layout can break these buttons).
6. NEW: When using the J. River audio engine for video playback, a fade-in is used after a seek (audibly more pleasant, and makes skipping commercials in television mostly silent).
7. NEW: madVR video renderer is now part of the standard filter pack and is automatically installed when needed. It is used in Red October HQ mode.

16.0.102 (6/2/2011)
1. Fixed: Subtitles would not work correctly with Red October when manually selecting 'ffdshow raw video filter'.
2. Changed: Added support for the DirectVobSub post-processor filter with Red October.
3. Fixed: Theater View backdrops from TheTVDB.com would not work properly for series with multiple database records where only one record was complete (like the Danish show Anstalten).

16.0.101 (6/1/2011)
1. Fixed: Line 21 subtitles would be on by default instead of off by default with Red October (and the state reported by the menu or on screen display would be incorrect at first).
2. Changed: Red October uses a less demanding deinterlacing method by default, which works better with laptops and older computers.
3. NEW: Added 'Red October HQ' option that will use the highest quality settings available, but will only work nicely on a fast computer.
4. Fixed: DVD playback was not working on many Windows XP computers.
5. NEW: Red October HQ methods will default to madVR if it is installed on the system (except for DVD, since madVR doesn't currently support DVD nicely).
6. Changed: Red October will use the Microsoft MPEG decoder with madVR now that current versions of madVR support the Microsoft decoder's output format.
7. Fixed: JRSS downmixing was not working properly when resampling.
8. Fixed: Using merit based filter selection was not working properly.

6. Fixed: Red October video playback would crash on some mpeg files, especially on Windows XP when ffdshow was configured to decode mpeg with libmpeg2 (now using libavcodec).
7. Changed: Updated to latest LAV splitter (.28) which better handles MTS files.
8. NEW: EXIF GPS information for latitude and longitude is read more completely (right-click > Update Library from Tags to fill existing files).
9. NEW: Added right-click image option "Locate on Google Maps" (only appears for images that contain GPS information in the Latitude and Longitude fields).
10. Changed: When possible, video stream selection is made before DirectShow graph is built.

7. Changed: Updated German language file (thanks Bytestar).
8. Changed: Added the ability to add a 'Mute' filter to DSP Studio > Parametric Equalizer.
9. Changed: With Red October off, user selected audio or video decoders will be used (if a decoder you would like to use does not get used, please report the filter details -- support is currently done on a white-list basis).
10. Changed: With Red October off, when ffdshow is manually selected as a decoder for a file type, auto-configuration of ffdshow will be disabled.
11. Changed: Microsoft's "Stream Buffer Source" filter is used to render dvr-ms and wtv files.
12. Changed: Updated to latest LAV splitter (.27) which better handles TS files.

16.0.96 (5/24/2011)
1. Fixed: When JRSS mixed from 5.1 or 7.1 to 4.0 or lower, the subwoofer level could be too low (now respects the option 'Source is correctly mastered for +10 dB calibration').
2. Fixed: Videos with low sample rates could fail to play if the sound card did not support a low sample rate (DSP Studio > Output Format is now automatically configured if necessary).

4. Fixed: VMR 9 was not working nicely with DVD.
5. Changed: Removed the option DSP Studio > Output Format option 'Something outside Media Center will make the subwoofer +10 dB (standard calibration)'. All level calibration should be done using Room Correction.
6. Changed: Room Correction allows setting levels from -20dB to +20dB (previously it had a range of -12dB to +12dB).
7. NEW: The Output Format and Room Correction systems work together better to track the available headroom in each audio channel so that unnecessary attenuation is never performed.
8. Fixed: DSP Studio > Room Correction would unnecessarily attenuate all channels when they all had negative volume levels (only the relative differences should matter).
9. Changed: Library and playlist views do not show a playing overlay on a thumbnail when it's the active playback file but playback is stopped (or else the green play overlay causes confusion with the 'Play' text link).
10. Changed: Tuned the slow double click mechanism for in-place list editing so that a fast double-click that just misses being a double-click won't start editing.
11. Fixed: Thumbnailing and analyzing of video files now works with Red October.

3. Fixed: Changing Update Channel options in Options and clicking 'Cancel' would not discard changes.
4. Changed: Importing of mp4 videos will use direct parsing method as used in importing of m4a audios.
5. Faster: MP4 (M4A, ALAC, MP4 video) importing / parsing is 10 to 30 times faster (was about 16.5 times faster on a test suite of many files).

Internal testing build

16.0.29 (2/11/2011)

3. Fixed: Video playback could leave some filters loaded after playback was stopped.

16.0.28 (2/10/2011)

6. NEW: Playback from Gizmo will update playback statistics and Scrobbles (requires updated Gizmo).
7. NEW: Playback on a DLNA device like the J. River Id, PS3, etc. will Scrobble the play when Last.fm Scrobbling is enabled on the server.
