Release notes 

http://mixxxblog.blogspot.com/2009/08/mixxx-170-released.html

    * MIDI Pitch messages are no longer processed internally and must be mapped to a script function. Fortunately 'script.pitch' can be used very easily from your script code.
    * The use of multiple MIDI devices simultaneously is not yet supported.
    * SelectNextTrack, SelectPrevTrack and LoadSelected do not work in the Browse view. See bug #342120.
    * SelectNextTrack & SelectPrevTrack cause the GUI to freeze for a few seconds when you try to scroll down beyond the current page. See bug #361170.
    * Certain MIDI controllers' (Stanton SCS devices) scratching is directly tied to latency. As a result, users will need to tune the values at the top of the scripts in question for their particular system.
