We've released a small follow-up stable release to address an issue that caused Media Browser Classic to crash under certain conditions.

In addition to this, let's recap everything that was introduced within 3.0.5445.5.

New Server Releases

As many of you know, we've worked hard to get the server released onto new platforms. Over the past two weeks we've had several releases, with more soon to follow.

ArchLinux: http://mediabrowser....-on-arch-linux/

CentOS: http://mediabrowser....ble-for-centos/

Fedora: http://mediabrowser....ble-for-fedora/

FreeBSD: http://mediabrowser....er-for-freebsd/

FreeNAS: http://mediabrowser....le-for-freenas/

OpenMediaVault: http://mediabrowser....en-media-vault/

Ubuntu: http://mediabrowser....opic-and-vivid/

Mac: http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/blog/1/entry-150-media-browser-server-mac-installer-now-available/

New DLNA Genre Views

DLNA browsing has been enhanced with new genre presentations for movies, tv, music and games.

New Web Client Filtering

A number of screens have added new filtering. You can now filter by Genres, Parental Ratings, Tags, Years and more.

As always you can expect to see these filters in other apps soon.

New Card Views

By now you all should know we like to keep up with technology and design trends. We've taken some inspiration from Google Play and added new card layouts that display more information and provide single-click access to important functions.

Note: These functions have already been available via right-click and tap-hold menus, but we realize not everybody knows that.

Revamped Movie Filename Parsing

We've revamped our movie file name parsing as part of our new file naming project. We now fully support Kodi standards and features and have a greater ability to handle non-clean file names. We're starting with movies and in a future release you can expect to see the same treatment applied to TV.

Specifically the Kodi features we now support are:

• Video file extensions
  
• CleanDateTime regex expressions
  
• CleanString regex expressions
  
• File stacking expressions
  
• And more

A number of people have gotten involved by reporting failing test cases that ultimately led to the improvement of the project. Thanks for that!

Parental Controls via Tags

Now you can use tags as another weapon in your arsenal to filter content from users within your household. Simply add tags to items via the metadata manager, then configure user parental controls.
