VideoLogic release v1.02 adds support more subtitle transcoding (dvb added) and mixed subtitles: https://t.co/15zaMY4ZSV

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

New update 2.19.34019.735 should resolve some issues with the download parser producing a TV show confirmation prompt (which ultimately caused issues with the download parser stalling).

Version 2.19 build 33019.1309 now available on auto-update, fixes some encoding issues with certain text from TVDb API v3, corrects issues with the 'keep updated' and 'has trailer' icons from disappearing, and adds video details (premium) and genre to the Summary tab.

Version 2.19 build 32919.1065 now available on auto-update, restores Usenet features (except internal index), fixes daily-airing episodes with TVDb API v3, and a handful of other recent issues.

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

@WeyezOD TVDb's API has been problematic still, but with the latest build you should be using API v2. For further support, please stop by the forums!

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

https://t.co/VIzv8Hc6ZN is now recommending everyone switch to v3 of their API. In Media Center Master, go up to the Application menu, Fetchers & Plugins to switch to v3. https://t.co/1mhRVBkJB2

@osxanalyst Usenet support is being phased out due to a great lack of reliable public newsbin indexers and the rather low usage in Media Center Master audience compared to its high cost of maintenance. I know it'll upset some people, but at this point I don't see this feature coming back.

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

New auto-update version 2.19 build 32419.947 has been released to auto-update with fixes for thetvdb fetcher v2 and v3 along with a number of performance adjustments.

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

@lnadon005 TVRage hasn't existed in Media Center Master in many years, you have a very outdated version. Try re-installing and applying all auto-updates.

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

@infuse @thetvdb They broke and discontinued API v2. As of a few hours ago, API v3 is live again. Make sure your users are able to access https://t.co/VIzv8Hc6ZN's content via API v3.

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

@derangedpiglet Sorry, I very infrequently check my tweets. Change the airing type of your show to daily and it should pick up the aired dates as episodes instead of SxxEyy. Cheers

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

https://t.co/VIzv8Hc6ZN is experiencing technical difficulties with their API, be advised that many searches and fetches for metadata against their database are affected and unavailable for now: https://t.co/A4VfwPCS1M

VideoLogic release v1.01 adds support for hardware-based encoding (Intel Quicksync and nVidia NVENC): https://t.co/gflublDocw

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

Major VideoLogic release v1.00: https://t.co/r55hQcV1em

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

Version 2.19 build 21419.1073 is now available an auto-update. This version lets you swap between #thetvdb API version 2 or version 3, since they're performing a rollback. Neither version is working correctly until their servers stabilize, so hang in there folks.

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

TheTVDB is rolling back to v2 of the API, which will require an update in MCM to switch back to. I'll put out an announcement when an update is available. For more details: https://t.co/ppHQKSVBhK #thetvdb

@AlexDAngeloRMT You can use the Artwork Manager to add posters, backdrops, and banners for now. Please create a bug report topic at the forums or use the Issue Tracker when filing the report. Social media is just a bad place for me to provide support and track this stuff.

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

Version 2.19 build 21319.685 released to auto-update. Fixes an issue with seasons auto-collapsing when expanded, further improves the update score & status feature, and a small bug with the download history and movies. See Issue Tracker for full details.

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

@AlexDAngeloRMT Yes, they discontinued v2 of their API yesterday. A new auto-update version of MCM is available today that does v3.

[Media Center Master @petes_mcm]

A small auto-update has been released for Media Center Master that adapts to version 3 of https://t.co/VIzv8Hc6ZN's API. Enjoy!
