6.0.15 * Fixed bug that prevented switching to default TV-refreshrate 6.0.14 * Option to restore default refreshrate only for TV (live or recorded). 6.0.13 * Improved Audio Mixer Handling. Note: Handling of audio devices relies on remote-controling the audio addon of the system control panel (type "control.exe mmsys.cpl" in "run" to see for yourself). Starting mmsys.cpl, controling it and closing it steals focus for short time, which might lead to flickering. While the Current Device in Media Center might in some cases not be correctly reported, the setting of the audio device should be fine. * Fixed bug in Stream detection using Direct Command Mode (Red Button or Ctrl+Alt+R) when no stream is present * Improved refreshrate tab in "Media Control Configuration" programm. Only 32bit modes are offered as default. Old registry settings are checked against current display driver and to be 32bit modes. 6.0.12.1 (only 32bit) * Fixed silly compiler mistake 6.0.12 * Fixed random crash of RemoteControlHook: it is now properly checking existence of Media Center Process 6.0.11 * restore to default refreshrate re-enabled (on Media Center start and on video stop event) * Vista not supported anymore * Input device detection fixed * Max allowable refreshrate increased to 300Hz 6.0.10 * Registry handling now done by "Media Control Configuration" (not installer)-->each user can use it without Admin rights * Fixed Contextmenue: no more crashes in latest Win7 and Win8 CP * Fixed Contextmenue: each command is now actually handled and not ignored in 80% of the cases (was a threading problem) * Refreshrates are now reliably auto detected and changed accordingly (make sure your display supprts all the refreshrates that are preconfigured in Media Control Configuration, e.g. the 23hz for 23.976 FPS) * Refreshratelist is now stored language independant in Registry-->removes crashes in Media Control Configuration * a number of smaller reliability bugs

Windows Media Player Control

The Microsoft Windows Media Player control is a Microsoft ActiveX control used by developers to add multimedia playback capabilities to Web pages or applications. It allows you to embed Windows Media content in applications such as Internet Explorer. It also provides a programming interface for rendering a variety of network streaming and non-streaming multimedia formats.

The Windows Media Player control is built on Microsoft DirectShow technology. DirectShow is based on Component Object Model (COM) architecture, which employs components called filters that can be plugged in to process multimedia data. Each filter is designed to receive digital input, process the data, and pass the results on to the next filter. The filters are arranged in a configuration called a filter graph. The Windows Media Player controls use an appropriate DirectShow filter graph to parse, decode, and render the media stream. The Windows Media Player controls are implemented through the DirectShow Filter Graph Manager (FGM).

The Windows Media Player control exposes a variety of methods, properties, and events for creating customized applications and Web pages. The following topics group the control's attributes into categories by functionality:

The following topics provide direct access to the reference documentation for the Windows Media Player control:

This documentation also provides a list of the unsupported items in the Microsoft Windows CE .NET implementation of the Windows Media Player control. If a method or property is not supported under Windows CE, it is still exposed. However manipulating it will have no visible effect.

Numbers show overall drop in crime in Valdosta

VALDOSTA Responding to what he believes is a public perception that crime is out of control, Valdosta Police Chief Brian Childress presented statistics to the city council this week demonstrating an overall decline in crime for more than a decade and said the perception may be due to his departments openness with the media.

I think weve put procedures in place that sometimes create a misconception that crime is out of control, said Childress. Just because you see it in the media doesnt mean crime is out of control. It means we provided access to the media.

In pursuing accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA), Childress said his department sought to create transparency, making it easier for the public to learn about crime in Valdosta that otherwise might have gone unnoticed.

Part of our accreditation is that we are open with the media. This is extremely important because this is not always the norm with law enforcement, said Childress. But in this department, I dont look at media as the media. I look at it as the public.

The statistics Childress shared with the city council Tuesday show that Part 1 Crimes, serious crimes tracked by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, dropped a little more than 11 percent from 2000 to 2013. Childress finds the drop remarkable, saying the crime rate should have gone up given the citys population increase of more than 13,000 people.

A lot of folks attribute crime to something thats completely irrelevant. Crime doesnt care about race, sex, religion--any of that. In reality, it looks at population density and other factors like the size of your city, said Childress. If you take a box and put three people in there, youre probably going to have low crime rates. But if you put 50 people in that box, youre going to have a higher crime rate because its human nature.

Childresss statistics show a drop in instances of rape, robbery, aggravated assault, motor vehicle theft and larceny over the past 13 years. The number of arson incidents has increased slightly, and there were 32 homicides since 2000, 30 of which have been cleared by arrest.

Burglary is the only Part 1 Crime that has seen a significant increase over the past 13 years, and VPD has initiated several programs to address the issue, including a new burglary unit and real-time crime analysis maps with hot zones for burglaries emailed to officers in the field. Childress believes these initiatives are already yielding positive results.

Since the initiation of the burglary unit, burglary rates have dropped dramatically for March 2014, said Childress. We are now using a prediction system to try to tell us where to go. It isnt perfect, but it has helped us solve several burglaries already.

Childress attributes the overall drop in crime rates to an improved economy, more officers on patrol, training and improved investigations. Childress also believes that new technology has been important in investigating cases and providing enough evidence for a conviction.
