The builds 150-156

16.0.156 (8/19/2011)

1. Changed: Red October uses LAV filters 0.32.
2. NEW: The expression language supports putting strings (like regular expressions, etc.) in comment blocks like /#Text/# to remove the need to do escapement.
3. Fixed: On a multi-monitor system Options > Video > Display Settings could save a different setting than selected.
4. Fixed: Right-click 'Reset Selection' on an individual pane would not update the other panes properly.
5. Fixed: Trying to play a DRM protected WMV video with no rights could cause a crash.
6. Fixed: Using MC16.exe /MCC 22001,2 would not always work reliably.
7. Fixed: Scrolling down in a Theater View grid-style list would not always loop to the last row when pushing down.
8. Changed: Browsing back into a smartlist on Gizmo or a DLNA device will reevaluate the search (may depend on device caching).
9. Fixed: When drilling into a category thumbnail list, the scroll position of the new list could be strange.
10. Faster: Improved the layout performance of the core list / tree UI component used everywhere in the program.

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.
6. Fixed: Possible Red October video converter crash when seeking Gizmo / WebPlay (hopefully, please provide a log if problems persist).

16.0.154 (8/17/2011)

1. Fixed: Red October video conversion could show a distorted picture in some cases.
2. Changed: Updated to a custom build of ffdshow that better supports the Red October video encoder ( code change publicly documented here: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=120465&page=696 ).
3. Changed: Tuned quality of Red October video converter so that the output looks better on Android phones and tablets.
4. NEW: Added DSP Studio > Output Format resampling mode 'Only sources less than 44,100 Hz'.
5. Changed: DSP Studio > Output Format disables the resampling mode selection when doing AC3 output.
6. Fixed: The messaging in the right-click menu for screen grab being unavailable with madVR wasn't clear.
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)

1. NEW: Red October video conversion allows fast seeking to any part of the video with WebPlay (on the desktop or Android).

16.0.152 (8/15/2011)

1. Fixed: The search shortcut for the 'Screewriter' field had a typo.
2. Changed: Updated German language file (thanks Bytestar).
3. Fixed: Some view header buttons did not get translated when running in a language other than English.
4. Fixed: DLNA: removed all SSDP notify message responses. Was breaking some renderers.
5. Changed: Media Network, updated user agent header to be more standard.

16.0.151 (8/12/2011)

1. NEW: Added the ability to lookup movie information from TMDb (themoviedb.org). The tool "Lookup Movie Info From Wikipedia" is now "Lookup Movie Info".
2. Changed: Integrated the J. River audio converter into the Red October video encoder instead of using the audio converter as a discrete filter for better performance.
3. Changed: The Red October video converter supports videos that do not contain audio.
4. Changed: Red October video conversion handles frame rate conversion better.
5. Changed: Red October video conversion uses volume normalization when converting.
6. Fixed: DLNA, remove superfluous response to reception of a NOTIFY SSDP message. Was crashing some renderers.
7. Fixed: Audio stutter during television channel change in certain audio output modes.
8. Faster: The core web service engine (MCWS) used by Library Server, DLNA, etc. is more multi-threaded, improving server response times.
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.
11. Faster: Red October video conversion uses LAV CUVID when possible for decoding for faster conversion.
12. Changed: Updated the French language translation (thanks to Dominique COMET).

16.0.150 (8/10/2011)

1. NEW: New video conversion engine that uses Red October for decoding and works with Blu-ray, TV, etc. (currently used by WebPlay for video playback, but more areas of the program will follow).
2. Changed: Updated the French language translation (thanks to Dominique COMET).
