Play list export feature
MAME (Arcade Game emulator) game support (Trac 40 SVN: 21567, 21568, 21569, 21570, 21573, 21574, 21597, 21598, 21599, 21603, 21620, and probably others)
Infrared repeats parameter can now be edited in the web admin
The playlist editor has been redone, and a Vertical mode added as well
Playlist export to .m3u and .pls functionality
New Unmanaged room type allows you to designate a room where no automatically generated scenarios appear. This give you total control over scenarios for that room.

accompanying *.dvd.keys.tar.gz will follow source file when renaming/deleting from the web admin
fixed a bug where deleting a performer's picture would delete the file entirely from the system. Now the picture is only deleted if nothing else references it
fixed similar bug that would permanently delete a picture when disassociating it from a file.
changing privacy settings via web admin now flags the orbiters to regenerate

Updated base distribution to Kubuntu 0810 (with standard 2.6.27 kernel - updating as Kubuntu updates)
Cleaned up many packages so they're as close as possible to (if not the same as) Ubuntu's Apt repository versions
