It is recommended to delete your UMS.conf file prior to installing this version. Windows users can choose the "clean install" option while installing instead.

Awesome!
Improves support for the following video codecs: H.264, H.265, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, VC-1, VP8, VP9
So does this mean we can now use ffmpeg to transcode to these better? i'm thinking Chromecast and that h.264 issue we noticed.

I hate to say this, but every release after 3.4.0 doesn't work quite right with my PS3. FF and Rewind used to run somewhat smoothly; 3.4.1 and 3.4.2 jump by minutes backwards and forwards. Copying MPG files produced by mkv2vob no longer show % copied, but copy like .mkv's with no estimate of completion.

Fixed a crash with certain files
I experienced this with 3.4.0 for OS X. Sadly the crash locked up the player.

Watched a film tonight *ahem* Gravity with 3.4.2 - OS X, fluid playback. Great experience on the Panasonic DMP-BDT330.
