I don’t follow OML (Open Media Library) as much as I should due to conflict of interest, but I still like to see how plugins other than what I use are doing.  I caught wind of OML v4.1 being release over the weekend and then saw that a quick maintenance release followed, so I thought I’d throw it on my Win7 test system and see how it’s faring these days.  I’ve also noticed they now offer a server setup, so I may have to see how this works.

The list of bug fixes that I came across are as follows:

• Bug fixes to importing previous oml.dat files
• Bug fixes to importing MyMovies.xml files
• bug fixes to importing oml.xml files
• bug fix to the moviecollectorz plugin
• Trailers now work
• fixed disappearing box art in db editor
• bug fixes to backing up/restoring the database
• various crashing fixes relating to meta data searches
• fanart from 0.3 versions of oml will now be pulling into 0.4 during import
• fixed race condition in the database layer
• deleting and updating favorites should now work
• fixed various issues when using 4:3 resolution tvs
• bug fixes relating to extenders (diff bugs for vista and win7 fixed) (extenders)
• fixed bug in transcoding mkv files under win7 (extenders)
• various fixes to drag/drop in the db editor

New additions and changes include:

• Added firewall exception to the installers for sql server
• Added separate settings for plugins (movies vs tv)
• ability to remove fanart from db editor
• more logging
• ability to rebuild the database from scratch
• ability to do meta-data searches for tv shows and seasons
• tv episodes now use front cover image instead of thumbnail for display

Well, I’m interested in seeing how it looks, so I’m going to download and have a look.  You can get the 4.2 release here (x86 and x64 available).  I’ll be sure to leave a writeup in a few days if everything works as advertised.
