MediaInfo Mac 0.7.7.50 - Release Notes

Important Information for Mac OS X Tiger Users:

This version was NOT tested in MacOS X Tiger (10.4.x) because i don't have anymore a running copy of Tiger, even the fact that it **should** work, i can't guarantee that it will, so if you are running Tiger, before installing this update do a copy of your actual MediaInfo Mac version.
