However, as always, if feel you don't need it, you can always skip this one.  

 
I've always wondered:  If you skipped, say, 2017.04, but then updated .05, do you get everything in the skipped update?  Seems logical but if that's the case why ever really skip?
 
Thanks.

Yes you get everything in the skipped update.

Many reasons to skip.  Updates do not always go smoothly.  For some people, this isn't just a hobby.   Every update contains bugs of some kind, old or new.  Bugs can be addressed in a future update that we introduced in one that was "skipped."
 
Every update contains risk.  While someone will chime in and say, just roll back...that is a risk too.  
 
(my experience thus far has been fine overall, just pointing out reasons)
 
 

How about some tutorials demonstrating the new PRV features?

Coming soon! Our marketing / educational content is currently trailing our development & product releases. (We're a little outnumbered in terms of marketing resources vs. dev resources )

Is the MP3 encoder the same as the one that was available in the store for purchase?

Yes, it's the same.

Track focus feature is preventing me from opening track lanes on multiple tracks. This is making it impossible to comp a stereo pair. Take lanes close on one when I select the other. Even when both are selected. 

Hi RMossman,
 
Do you have "Auto Track Zoom" enabled?  The option is in the Track View's "View" menu (or Shift-Z).  If so, can you uncheck it and try?

Nice!

Although there is still no documentation, Transform Tool seems to be very promising.
One of the limitations of always in  PRV, is the absence of possibility to draw spline curves for controls.
From the few empirical tests I've done, I think this might be possible with the Tranform Tool.
But you still need to have a tutorial.
