Delete the current plugins/ffmpeg.exe and when the conversion happens it'll download a new version. You can play with the profile in the xml file if you want to mess with the transcoding.
13. Fixed: UPnP update playstats. A bit tricky because some devices do multiple GET's when reading a video stream (like the PS3).

2. Fixed: When adding a playlist to the tree, if the tree scroller to show the new playlist, the in-place edit to allow naming would be canceled.

4. Optimized: Improved performance of 3D wall style views.
5. Fixed: Television recording files (jtv, jts) could not be played from the Library Server.

14.0.17 (06/22/2009)

1. Changed: More changes on data buffering during television (or television recording) playback.
2. Fixed: Build 16 wasn't able to find other running copies of the program, which caused problems in a few areas.

2. Changed: The list grouping "Album (by date)" is available in all views instead of only in image views.
3. Changed: Added MCC commands for zooming Theater View (also possible in Options or with [Ctrl]+[Mouse Wheel]) (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=52539.0)

The builds 8-15

1. Changed: MC television time-shifting reader filter does a better job of buffering data when playing files from a network drive.
2. NEW: Added a new Theater View option "Disable Windows Media Center (useful if it is launching on the Green button, etc.)". (requires UAC elevation)
3. NEW: Added WASAPI option "Present 24-bit data in a 32-bit package". (some audiophile hardware needs 24-bit data while most consumer level hardware needs 24-bit data in a 32-bit package)

5. NEW: When connecting to a Library Server, the server zones are added to the client zones under Playing Now to allow playback to any zone of the server or any zone of the client. (this replaces the 'Here' / 'There' popup)

1. Changed: Removed the "Finish" page from the television scanning dialog -- the results are shown in the channel list after a scan.
2. Fixed: The Import single-folder wizard would import from the last path used instead of the current path (only applies to build 13).
3. NEW: Added new Handheld playlist format "M3U (relative paths without leading dot)" for devices that don't like relative paths that start with ".\".
3. Changed: Simplified how web media sites are added and removed from Theater View. (use Options > Theater View to configure)
4. NEW: Added YouTube Theater View integration that allows browsing popular, recent, etc. and allows doing searches.
5. Changed: Added a tip to the Monitor Switcher (MC14.exe /MonitorSwitch) for how to switch between two different displays on Windows 7. (requires two calls instead of one like Vista and earlier)

14.0.13 (06/15/2009)

1. Changed: When user selects a channel in "Edit Channel List" window, MC tries to fill "Channel Number" field with a default value if the field is not already set by user (ATSC digital TV and analog Cable only).
2. NEW: Improved new Import interface when importing a single folder.
3. NEW: Reworked Theater View rollers so they can be grabbed and dragged or flicked to scroll with a mouse / touch-screen (works like other Theater View lists now).
4. Changed: ATSC television channel scanning will use an existing channel in database with identical channel name, instead of creating a new entry (in case the physical channel is different). This change is necessary to avoid creating duplicates, and to preserve existing subscriptions. Many television stations changed their broadcast carrier frequency (physical channel) at the analog broadcast switch-off last week.
5. Fixed: DVB-T channel "Is AC3 Audio" attribute was displayed incorrectly in "Details" section on "Edit Channel List" window.
6. Changed: Miscellaneous changes in "Edit Channel List" window.
7. Fixed: Media Center 13 and Media Center 14 shell extensions could fight with each other (may require manually enabling / disabling shell extensions in each program to get it working).

9. NEW: Added more browsable categories to Hulu inside Theater View.

14.0.12 (06/12/2009)

2. Optimized: Core image MMX assembly rendering engine about 8% faster.
3. Fixed: Possible crash when scrolling in lists.
4. Changed: The text on the installer button "Next" is changed to "Next >", to be consistent with "< Back" button, and to avoid translation confusion with "Next" as in "Next Track".
5. Fixed: Monochrome PSD files that used RLE encoding could cause a crash (monochrome PSD files not currently supported).
6. Changed: "Next / Previous use favorite channels only" check box is moved from Television Options window to Edit Channel List window.
7. Changed: When saving an ID3v2 tag to an MP3, if the new tag is more than 8 KB smaller than the old tag, the file will be rewritten to save space on disk.
8. Fixed: Lists that were grouped into Album Thumbnails were not always working.

14.0.11 (06/10/2009)

1. NEW: Added write support to Library Server to allow bidirectional communication of any number of clients with a single server. When connected to a Library Server, use the command File > Library > Sync Library... to write any changes made on the client back to the server, and also update the client from the server if necessary. Expect automation in a future build.
2. Changed: When connecting the a Library Server, the Filename is no longer updated to show a URL -- instead this happens internally at playback time.
3. Fixed: Playing recorded television show or starting to watch a television channel while MC was doing scheduled recording could have long silence (up to 100 seconds) and (to lesser extent) paused video, if MC was on second monitor when playback started.
4. Fixed: Moving MC from one monitor to another while playing a recorded television show would cause audio and video to pause for a long time.
5. Fixed: MCE remote controls work again (support was temporarily disabled while building new remote system in early builds).

3. Changed: When an encoder needs to download a supporting file on first use, it could show two UAC prompts instead of one.
4. Changed: When emailing log files, a string is placed at the top of the message asking users to provide a description or link (it's hard to know what to do with logs with no context).
5. Changed: Quicktime file types (except mov, qt, m4p, and m4b) that are set to use "Automatic" Playback Method will be played using DirectShow instead of Quicktime engine if needed DirectShow filters are found on the computer.
6. Changed: Increased timeout used when searching for Library Servers.
7. Fixed: In some cases, searching for a Library Server could find a server running on the local machine, causing a possible circular reference.
8. Fixed: Creation of ZIP file with subfolders could fail to be unzipped on Linux (caused problems with Pix01 galleries).

14.0.9 (06/05/2009)

1. NEW: Many improvements to search suggestion engine (adds instructions, common searches, etc.)
2. Changed: Version 14 no longer functions with a version 13 license.

7. NEW: When connecting to Library Server, a user can choose to play on the server instead of locally.
