- The stuttering that was introduced in 4.5 due to the BTVD3DShell.exe process has been fixed. At least for me and many others.
- If you use NAS,then they've fixed some issues with that (ex. recordings not showing up in the Library after moving shows to NAS).
- There's now support for Vista (not my thing, but many are happy).
- Web Admin is faster.
- You can now stream DivX files from the web admin.
