The builds 162-166

13.0.166 (05/06/2009)

1. Fixed: With the ripping option to overwrite existing files enabled some encoders would not work. (only applies to last few builds)
2. Fixed: Using incomplete math syntax like "3 /" or "2+1+" could cause problems in expressions.
3. Changed: DSP Plug-ins are always loaded from the main user interface. (solves problems with plugins that create user interface at load instead of when requested by Media Center like DFX)
4. Optimized: Improved performance of J. River edit / expression controls.

13.0.165 (05/05/2009)

1. Changed: Upgrades to HTML parser used for RSS feeds in Theater View. (Yahoo! News, The Onion, etc.)
2. Changed: Improved Theater View's support of The Onion in the News plug-in.
3. Changed: The burn complete dialog that prompts for Burn / Print Label / Quit is not shown if the burn completes while in Display View or Theater View.
4. Changed: When Theater View is showing, Standard View style wait messages will not appear.
5. Changed: Pressing the space bar on a J. River style button, checkbox, etc. will be considered a click.
6. Fixed: Theater View's Weather configuration dialog did not support tabbed navigation.

13.0.164 (05/04/2009)

1. Fixed: Showing Theater View on systems without DirectX 9 (or later) installed could cause a crash.
2. Fixed: WMA encoding would not work properly on a fresh install (only applies to the last few builds).
3. Fixed: Encoding could crash in certain cases (only applies to the last few builds).
4. Changed: If television is configured to automatically refresh the programming guide, it will do so once a day OR if there are no programs available (retries every 30 minutes if there are no programs).
5. Changed: Shortened the portable install description in the installer so it fits better with larger fonts.
6. Changed: Switched the Austria country code used for mc2xml to AT.
7. NEW: Added CD burning in Theater View. (use "Burn" item in roller of any file view)
8. NEW: Added CD ripping in Theater View. (pick "DVD" with an audio CD in the drive and then select "Rip disc")
9. Fixed: Corrected a typo on the new Converter options page.
10. Changed: Reverted to also looking in the legacy Media Jukebox location for DSP Plug-ins to better support DFX, etc.
11. Fixed: When installing a new skin from a webpage, the change did not take effect until restarting the program.
12. Fixed: Album grouping / album expansion could cause problems when using Google Images from the Links bar to set the cover art for a video.

13.0.163 (05/01/2009)

1. NEW: Revamped Converter, so that it has nicer options and the ability to process up to 8 files at the same time.
2. NEW: Added a "Programs" OSD menu item for television. Left/right arrows cycle through Favorite Channels (or all channels if you have no favorite channels) with Now/Next program info. MC automatically switches to the last channel you stop at.
3. Fixed: Playing Now / playlists lists could empty and not refresh properly in certain cases. (only applies to last couple of builds)
4. Changed: Revised the internal system that provides ideal sizes for controls when laying out user interface. (should be internal change, but please report any issues)
5. Fixed: Extremely loud sound was produced when playing an audio track that was mistyped as non-audio while Volume Leveling was turned on.

13.0.162 (04/30/2009)

1. NEW: Added native support for VST plug-ins. Add plug-ins in Plug-in Manager and configure inside DSP Studio.
2. Changed: Television OSD channel/program info display uses bold and italic font for words "Playing now:"/"Recording now:" and "Next:".
3. Changed: The "Add Plug-in" button in Plug-in Manager will prompt for UAC elevation so plugins get registered as administrator (where they have proper HKLM registry access).
4. Changed: Renamed "out_MJ.dll" to "out_Main.dll" and "dsp_MJMain.dll" to "out_Main.dll" for consistency. (should be internal change, but please report any issues)
5. Optimized: DSP plug-ins are only loaded when enabled or viewed, so having a long list of installed DSPs (VST, Winamp, or J. River) has no performance impact.
6. Changed: Revised how plug-ins that contain multiple plug-ins inside a single DLL register themselves to accommodate #5. (each plug-in uses its own registry key instead of all plugins sharing a key and the program loading and enumerating at run time)
7. Changed: DSP plug-ins installed to the legacy location (Media Jukebox) are no longer loaded.
8. NEW: Added a status in DSP Studio to show if a plug-in is processing data, if it failed to load, if it doesn't support the input format, etc.
