Release Notes for version 2.9

Introduction

!MovieJukebox 2.9 was released on 23rd August 2013.

Upgrade Procedure

Please follow the Upgrading Movie Jukebox !MovieJukebox and overwrite your current YAMJ directory, it is important delete the lib folder before you do this.

If you use any of the default skins (as provided in the zip file) it is very important that you delete the existing skin folders before unpacking this zip file

This is important and will save you lots of pain later when things don't work. People will only laugh and point at you when you ask why it doesn't work. Thanks.

First time Recheck

When you upgrade, YAMJ will automatically recheck your movies to ensure they are correct and the Jukebox files have all been updated. This will inevitably slow down your first run of YAMJ after the upgrade. It is important that you let this process complete.

Please Note

If you are installing from scratch, and you want to overwrite/change the settings, then you can copy the example moviejukebox.properties file from the properties folder to your root folder and then copy the appropriate line from the default file (properties\moviejukebox-default.properties) and place it in your moviejukebox.properties file.

Special Myihome Note

If you use myihome you will need to ensure there is a blank moviejukebox.properties file in your plugin directory or Myihome will not recognise the new version of YAMJ.

Suggested Java Version

Please make sure you are using the latest 1.6 version of Java at the very least as there have been some security issues.
