Version 1.10 Released

We are pleased to announce that version 1.10 is available for download.

This release focuses mainly on small, but useful improvements. The display ratio has been reworked, metadata are now retrieved from the files themselves (for both, audio and video files), there is support for more file formats and also some additional profiles.

A lot of effort went to fixing playback in MediaBrowser on some platforms (like iOS).

As always, thanks go to the testers, translators and guys helping at the forum.

A new patch release is out. It mostly addresses some playback issues in MediaBrowser on iOS and also fixes a bug causing files not being added to the library after 24 hours of running the server.

Everyone is welcome to upgrade.
