A good question. The What's New link on the update invitation after opening SF14 just says, 'Several improvements and bug fixes' - but there are no details about those improvements or bug fixes.

Yes, "Several improvements and bug fixes" No 'remote record' or 'textured BG', both of which where supposed to be in 'this' build.

In any case, thank you for your confirmation that I haven't overlooked anything.
However, this "information policy" is strange and leaves a lot of room for interpretation ......

In any case, contradicts an old saying from the business world that says: "Do good and talk about it"

Is the problem of Channel Converter not working in Build 111 fixed in this new build 112?

I corresponded with tech support about this issue about five weeks ago. They were able to duplicate the issue and assured me that it would get reported to their developers. Hopefully, it will get fixed soon.

rraud wrote on 11/4/2020, 10:02 AM

I am not able to duplicate the behavior either.

sirshambling wrote on 11/5/2020, 10:55 AM

I can now confirm that the Channel Convertor problem has NOT been fixed. Still doesn't work in Build 112. Really angry. Going back to SF12 AGAIN!

Indeed it has not been fixed, the same behavior as before in both the 64 and 32 bit versions.

Please fix these annoying bugs Magix!

Back to the original question:
Can someone from Magix say WHAT was fixed in this update ????

This is a user-to-user forum, so comments from Magix employees are few and far between. A detailed release document would be nice for sure.

FWIW, I was not able duplicate ".wav files saved with markers crash" behavior in any build, including 130. I have not seen any release notes either for build 130. Same fixes and reasons as 112. I guess, so the developers appear busy at home.

This time I saw it:
The update form says at the bottom left: "New in this update"

If you click on it, you get a list of the changes

But why not publish it in the "News" category, even though it would actually only be copy-paste? They really have to be very "busy".

Thanks @Walter.I I must have missed the release notes button

- The textured BG is back .... finally
- MP3 bitrates higher than 128kps for mono encoding .... it's about time
- Channel Converter is still busted.... at least on my PC.
- Magix stated they were bringing back the "Remote Record" sub-window option "on the next build"..... but I do not see it..

Jason-Arvanites wrote on 11/23/2020, 5:00 PM

I've downloaded half a dozen times, but keep getting an error message that the update file cannot be found. Anybody else have this problem?

rraud wrote on 11/23/2020, 5:44 PM

@Jason-Arvanites I have encountered that and other update issues.. When this happens, just download the full application installer from the "Magix Service Center> My Poducts" or the Magix Download Center" and install SF from that. Uninstalling the current build is not necessary or recommended, if the current build is functioning normally, the updates will be applied and you will not lose customizations, presets, or anything else.

Oh, so the products in my account are the latest builds? Good to know. Thanks!

Thank you very much for the info on Channel Convertor @RRAUD no need for me to bother with this new build. This really annoying me now - we spend a fortune on the latest SF product and Magix can't fix a bug they've caused. Hopeless.

"Visualization files reset while program start with STRG + SHIFT keys"

What is STRG?

 

rraud wrote on 11/24/2020, 4:56 PM

Where is that showing? I have never encountered that or a STRG key, (CTRL in German?) I would ignor it.
