Highlights:

  • Updated web interface design
  • More metadata fine tuning
  • Out of the box studio & genre images

Updated Web Client & Dashboard Design

The web interface has embraced flat UI. Large rounded elements have been replaced in favor of a new smaller, sharper design.

New Mobile & Tablet Layouts

 

You'll find it much easier to navigate now.

Redesigned Search

 

The new slide out panel removes clutter from the header and is mobile & tablet friendly.

Out of the Box Genre & Studio thumbs

 

Now everyone can enjoy the artwork without having to hunt down images. These can always be replaced and will not replace your existing images.

New Design for Watched & Progress Indicators

 

We've created a new design for these. Our intention is to standardize them amongst all of our clients in upcoming releases.

Customize settings for different types of media

More Control Over Language Settings

 

Specify preferred metadata language on a per-title basis

New Parental Control Settings

 

You now have more control over blocking of unrated content.

Collections vs Box Sets

 

Going forward we will now be utilizing industry standard terminology. The term "collections" will be interchangeable with "boxsets". We will now use "Media Folders" to denote what were previously called "Media Collections".

 

 

Other issues that have been fixed:

  • thumbs are now saved as landscape.ext when using compatible image saving
  • Fixed duplicated day titles in upcoming tv view
  • Added genre splitting by comma for metadata embedded within video files
  • Fixed issues renaming and removing media folders with # in the name

Hmm, MBS is not picking up the new Beta. Is is staggered somehow so that we don't all smash the server at the same time?

We do have a stagger period yes, so it could take as much as a day.

cylon, yes it staggers the release so the server doesn't slow to a halt. Give it a day and I'm sure it will show up.

more features/refined features always good news. congrats.  I have a question about the staggered period, if I go to the www.mediabrowser3.com and download it from there is this also staggered as well? or will I always get the latest build that has been released?

 

Edit - www.mediabrowser3.com has the latest.  no need to wait.

Thanks for the update !

 

Can we have a link to download all genre images and is it possible to modify these images for translating ?

 

Why i ask for this :

 

For example in my french database i've some movies in "Histoire" genre and no movie in "History" genre...so when i've updated MB Server the "History" image genre wasn't dowloaded. I had to add one movie tag with "History" to dowload the image and then for "Histoire" genre i had to upload from MB Server genre folder the "History" image (ouf !)

 

May be we could choose between all genre images whatever the name of genre and pick up the image we need ?

 

I would like to tranlate these images too...is it possible to have the sources ?

 

Best Regards

What a beautiful release!

480p+ transcode option is awesome!

 

Great work - as usual.

So many of the filter functions have been removed, any chance this was a mistake and they are meant to be there?

Luke, thanks for fixing the Genre parsing so quickly!!

 

Just tried it. and had to delete the Data folder to stop Genre Cleaner from wiping the genres in the movie.xml. After rebuilding the Database and with Genre Cleaner installed, it now no longer wipes the genres from the Movie.xml.

 

I note that on a single movie refresh in the Web client, the Genres in the MP4 Tag are now completely ignored. is this by design?

 

Also, Genre Cleaner no longer shows a button to add a Genre..
