Hi,
fyi, a
new version has been posted to the store (it'll likely go live within the hour). The most significant changes are fixes to UPnP (it previously failed completely on some systems), stability fixes for large collections (MM8 now dynamically disables grouping if it detects stability issues related to large collections), and elimination of .XXXXXX files that were created on removable media when editing file properties.
There are many other fixes as well--here's a more comprehensive list of changes from the last 2 releases:
