certain circumsances, causing the event manager to trigger more frequently than needed.
Event Manager
Event manager was iterating over sub children of an event whenever it fired causing TVMOBiLi

V1.4.0.2563 RELEASE NOTES (Includes All Fixes From Previous Release)
Playlist support on the XBox360
Patched the playlist support that was not displaying
correctly on the XBox360.
Named Semaphores Fixed on Mac
The last release candidate introduced a bug that caused a
slow down of the application on some Mac installations. This version patches that release.
GoogleTV DLNA Patch
Updated our conformance with the Google TV platform.
Folder Monitor Update
On some installations it was possible for TVMOBiLi to do more
work than was necessary as it was incorrectly interpreting system notifications.
Improved Artwork!!!
You can now create a jpeg with the same name as your media file and
TVMOBiLi will pick that file up and use it as artwork. We have also updated the 'Folder.jpg' functionality
as this was not correctly implemented for some file types.
V1.4.0.2538 RELEASE NOTES (Includes All Fixes From Previous Release)
The NAS Box Release!!!
TVMOBiLi has now been tested on the following devices:
- Buffalo LinkStation
- D-Link
- E-Trayz
- Excito B3
- Q-NAP
- SheevaPlug
Anybody wishing to test on these devices should send an email to support@tvmobili.com for a pre-release
version.
Artwork Companion Application on Mac - Fix
Updated the build procedure to correctly pick up
the artwork companion application for Mac. Previous version did not include this application in the
package so artwork was not picked up.
Dynamic Media Engine Enhancement
Added extra parameters to the dynamic media engine that
allows much finer configuration of each device.
SSDP Discovery Enhancement
A significant improvment to the discoverability of TVMOBiLi has
now been made. On Mac and Linux boxes if another bit of software had the SSDP broadcast port held open
TVMOBiLi did not attempt to make itself discoverable until the port was released. New build fixes this
problem.
Subtitles on LG DLNA Devices
TVMOBiLi has had significant upgrade to the subtitling support and
it should now support subtitles on all LG devices.
Folder.jpg Support
By default TVMOBiLi now tries to save album art that is embedded inside
a particular content type. If this cannot be found TVMOBiLi now looks for a file called Folder.jpg in the
current directory to use as the artwork.
MP3 Picture Artwork Patch
Included a fix that was incorrectly identifying artwork on
Snow Leopard.
Thumbnailing fix
Fixed problems with crashing whilst thumbnailing on Linux installations.
Ghost Folders After Deletion of Source
Ghost folders were sometimes left in the TVMOBiLi
catalogue after deletion.

A huge performance increase for media streaming has seen the introduction
of a dynamic bitrate adaption engine that can be fully configured for each client to enable perfectly smooth streaming.
Support for FLV and MOV file formats
We've added even more media types to our dynamic media engine!
Dynamic iTunes Integration
Allows the user to specify the full name of the iTunes Library file to allow
for name changes between iTunes versions.
Fixed Greyscale thumbnailing on Linux Distros
JPEG thumbnailing would cause TVMOBiLi to exit whenever it
encountered a greyscale jpeg image.
Improved Thumbnail Support in Dynamic Media Engine
Different devices require different ways of describing content
this new version allows us to dynamically configure support for thumbnailing on a per client basis, rather than the blanket method
in previous releases.
V1.4.0.2387 RELEASE NOTES (Includes All Fixes From Previous Release)
INCORRECT MP3 TAGS
Certain versions of ID3 tag structures caused TVMOBiLi to incorrectly interpret the
meta data inside an mp3 file and therefore caused TVMOBiLi to catalogue them incorrectly.
PLAYLISTS
Add playlist support. TVMOBiLi will now read all your playlists from iTunes and will update
itself when changes are made.
MEMORY LEAK
Clients that constantly connect and disconnect during streaming were slowly increasing TVMOBiLi's
memory footprint over time. This has now been corrected and memory usage should stay at a minimum.
UNICODE MP3 TAGS
Added unicode support to ID3 Tage decoding.
LOCAL ADDRESS DETECTION
A bug meant that TVMOBiLi incorrectly identified devices as being 'external'
causing the client to fail to connect to TVMOBiLi.
CRASH ON EXIT
A timing bug meant that in certain circumstances TVMOBiLi would crash when exiting.
V1.4.0.2245 RELEASE NOTES (Includes All Fixes From Previous Release)
WINDOWS NETWORK SHARES
Fixed the network sharing code on Windows machines that was stopping TVMOBiLi from
recognising network shares. The new version supports fully UNC encoded urls.
MULTICAST INTERFACE CONFIGURATION
On multihomed machines it is sometimes possible for TVMOBiLi to be assigned
a incorrect network card for broadcasting, meaning some devices were not able to see TVMOBiLi in certain conditions.
MAC FILE MONITOR
The Mac file monitoring code was cataloguing every folder when a system event occurred. It
should just catalogue the sub-tree where the modification occurred.
START/STOP BUTTON
Added a new button to the user interface that allows you to stop and start the server.
REST SDK
Inclusion of new simple REST interface that allows developers to communicate with TVMOBiLi and perform
tasks remotely such as starting/stopping, adding folders etc. etc.
ID3 TAG PARSING UPDATE
Previous versions of TVMOBiLi assumed that an mp3 track would always contain tag data.
The new version accepts mp3 tracks that do not have valid ID3 Tag information.
V1.4.0.2196 RELEASE NOTES
The following list details the main features of the latest release. We are hoping to move this into full production release at
the start of September.
SUBTITLE SUPPORT FOR 2010 SAMSUNG MODELS
Complete overhaul of the subtitle functionality to support .srt and .sub
file formats when streaming to Samsung devices. The fix is also backwardly compatible with 2009/08 series.
RE-WRITE OF STREAMING ENGINE
A massive upgrade to the streaming engine means that TVMOBiLi is now faster than
ever before and is capable of handling multiple connected clients and multiple simultaneous streams.
FRIENDS & FAMILY
We've improved the friends and family functionality so that you can remotely stream content
from others. This also allows you to remotely access your own content.
DYNAMIC MEDIA ENGINE UPGRADE
A few fixes and tweaks to our Dynamic Media Engine means that TVMOBiLi can automatically
adapt it's streaming engine to best suit your device.
WINDOWS TASKBAR INTEGRATION
We've added a new component to Windows builds that allows you to control TVMOBiLi (Starting
and Stopping) from the Windows Taskbar, providing greater flexibility.
INTEGRATION WITH IPHOTO
TVMOBiLi now integrates with iPhoto. Check out our Twitter feed for information on how to test
out this functionality.
THE BUBLÉ FIX
The current release version incorrectly assumes mp3 ID3 Tags to be
UTF-8 encoded. This caused TVMOBiLi to stop working when it encountered certain characters in mp3 files.
PLUG-IN FRAMEWORK
Our plug-in framework is now in place and we're interested in hearing from developers who may want to
provide some additional functionality. We will shortly be releasing a full developer area on TVMOBiLi to get your teeth into :)
