Carousel 5.0.4 Release Notes ========================================================= * Bug 1530 | Copying items to another user's media collection only copies the item in your own collection -A bug in the code was always passing in your user name to the copying code, rather than the user name intended recipient of the media. We now pass in the correct user name. * Bug 1934 | Background audio is unstable -Revamped the inter-process communication model that controls audio playback. The new architecture should be much more stable. * Bug 1977 | Alert bulletins do not play sound clips -The DisplayEngine was searching in the wrong place for Alert bulletin sound clips. * Bug 2102 | Video helper apps don't have Windows error reporting disabled -The video player programs should no longer leave a "This program has encountered an error and needs to close" dialog box on screen in the event of a crash. * Bug 2123 | Zones aren't being added to the "All Zones" tag -Adding a zone to Carousel wasn't refreshing the "All Zones" tag list properly, so it wouldn't be included in the "All Zones" tag. * Bug 2215 | DisplayEngine Crashes if service hasn't yet started. -Poor error handling was causing a crash if the DisplayEngine couldn't contact the Carousel service. The DisplayEngine now correctly displays the "red bar" and runs in cached mode whenever the service is unavailable. * Bug 2216 | VideoHelper crashes randomly -A particular version of the NVidia video drivers was causing sporadic crashing when playing videos. The correct driver to use is "84.21" * Bug 2219 | Antenna/Cable setting doesn't work for live video input -A logic mistake in the code never allowed the TV input to tune in channels above 13. * Bug 2259 | Weather Bulletins can contain too much text -Weather Bulletins never allowed you to restrict the amount of weather data to display in the "outlook" section, which could lead to text that was so small as to be unreadable. You can now specify the amount of outlook data to display. * Bug 2260 | Double-clicking too fast on the DisplayEngine can launch multiple instances -A timing issue caused the DisplayEngine to not "clean up" extra instances of the application, leading to strange behavior as the DisplayEngines "fight" between themselves. Now, the "last" DisplayEngine will win, and terminate any extraneous processes. * Bug 2281 | Empty template list isn't very user-friendly -If you didn't have any templates installed on a zone, you were greeted with a blank screen whenever you wanted to create a new bulletin. Now, a message informs you that there are no templates, and gives a suggestion on how to add some. * Bug 2315 | Event Display bulletins don't update -When there was no schedule for event display bulletins, they would be automatically set to update again on 12/31/9999, which effectively caused them to never update again. They now update every 15 minutes, even if there is no new schedule. * Bug 2331 | Deleting copied media could delete too many items -If you had copied media items across "My" and "Zone" media sections, deleting the item in the "My" section would confirm deleting the item for "My" sections, but would delete any "Zone" items without checking, and vice versa. Now, deleting "My" media will only delete "My" items, and deleting "Zone" media will only delete "Zone items.
