2006-08-29 21:56  thor

	* ChangeLog, NEWS: last NEWS

2006-08-29 21:54  thor

	* INSTALL: small correction for libasound and typo

2006-08-29 21:53  thor

	* src/layer3.c: this sort of / spurious overflow is too common,
	  debug+verbose

2006-08-29 21:52  thor

	* configure.ac: calling it version 0.60

2006-08-29 17:09  thor

	* configure.ac: copy and pase typo, nas is not alsa

2006-08-29 12:04  thor

	* src/id3.c: fix compiler warning about sign differing pointers

2006-08-29 11:57  thor

	* doc/PATENTS: typo

2006-08-27 09:22  thor

	* NEWS: news for 0.60-beta6

2006-08-27 09:14  thor

	* Makefile.am: also distribute the THANKS
	* doc/THANKS: as Gabor suggested - let us be thankful

2006-08-27 09:08  thor

	* configure.ac: goign to be last beta - for real now!

2006-08-27 01:50  thor

	* src/Makefile.am, src/Makefile.legacy, src/common.c,
	  src/common.h, src/control_generic.c, src/id3.c, src/id3.h,
	  src/mpg123.c, src/mpg123.h, src/stringbuf.c, src/stringbuf.h:
	  Too big upgrade... It is actually just about better id3 support,
	  namely adding basic parsing and display of id3v2 text info
	  fields. The code for that was outsourced from common.c - that
	  file contained too much "common" code... One change on the side
	  ofthe way is that control_generic now doesn't exit but return
	  properly so that the main routine can cleanup afterwards

2006-08-26 14:53  thor

	* src/Makefile.am, src/playlist.c, src/playlist.h,
	  src/stringbuf.c, src/stringbuf.h: stringbuf on its own to be
	  reused

2006-08-26 13:59  thor

	* src/common.c, src/readers.c: moved id3 printing to read_frame;
	  going to add id3v2 printing support there

2006-08-26 13:45  thor

	* src/common.c: promote some ID3v2 info form debug to very verbose

2006-08-25 12:28  thor

	* src/audio_libao.c, src/mpg123.c, src/playlist.c: struggling to
	  stay C90 compatible... mostly (no %z printf specifier)

2006-08-25 10:36  thor

	* NEWS, configure.ac: steering towards beta5

2006-08-25 10:28  thor

	* configure.ac, doc/TODO, src/Makefile.am: form framework to
	  support fixed point arithmetic; normal playback working with
	  generic_nofpu

2006-08-25 09:28  thor

	* src/mpg123.c, src/playlist.c, src/playlist.h: playlist entry
	  length not statically limited anymore, memory housekeeping

2006-08-25 09:24  thor

	* src/getlopt.c: memory gets lost on strdup according to
	  valgrind...

2006-08-24 21:53  thor

	* src/playlist.c, src/playlist.h: boilerplates for playlist...

2006-08-24 21:52  thor

	* src/Makefile.am, src/Makefile.legacy, src/mpg123.c,
	  src/mpg123.h, src/playlist.c, src/playlist.h: A step to a leaner
	  mpg123.c: outsourced and reorganized the playlist code. Main
	  functionality change is that the whole playlist is read in on
	  program start (rather needed for http playlists since few
	  servers will keep up the connection for the duration of several
	  tracks).

2006-08-24 10:53  thor

	* ChangeLog: dummy ChangeLog so that autogen.sh does not complain
	  anymore

2006-08-24 09:18  thor

	* src/mpg123.c: fixing bug 1544530; do not parse listname when it
	  is NULL

	* src/audio_alsa.c: note about needed adjustable alsa buffer

2006-08-24 08:06  thor

	* src/config.h.legacy: sys/types.h could be needed

2006-08-24 08:05  thor

	* src/mpg123.c: give chose audio rate in very verbose mode

2006-08-22 12:20  thor

2006-08-21 16:52  thor

	* configure.ac, src/Makefile.am: fixing i486

2006-08-21 16:45  njh

	* CHANGES, LICENSE, Makefile.am, NEWS, README.thor, ROAD_TO_LGPL,
	  configure.ac: mpg123 now uses standard GNU file names.

2006-08-21 16:13  thor

	* configure.ac, src/Makefile.am: trying to get i486/i386 back

2006-08-21 15:52  njh

	* src/Makefile.am: Added decode_i486.c to 486 CPU target

2006-08-21 15:22  thor

	* src/layer3.c: do not annoy every user - overflow warning as
	  debug message

2006-08-21 15:07  thor

	* src/common.c: avoid non-C90 printf stuff, better solution in
	  future

2006-08-21 14:57  thor

	* src/common.c: long long is not safely there... just use long for
	  this debugging output of an off_T

2006-08-21 14:53  thor

	* configure.ac, src/common.c, src/common.h, src/config.h.legacy,
	  src/readers.c, src/term.c, src/term.h: Disabled mmap stuff; vbr
	  seeking having replaced old stream seek There is now a configure
	  option to select frame index table size - if set to 0, you
	  basically disable it any any seek will start from beginning and
	  the read through the frames.

2006-08-21 13:48  thor

	* src/common.c, src/common.h, src/control_generic.c: a working
	  seek for generic control (now also working backwards - whee!),
	  along the way some more cleanup regarding the frame numeber bein
	  in frame struct

2006-08-21 13:40  thor

	* src/mpg123.c: to make it clear: -s gives you host byte order!

2006-08-21 13:36  thor

	* src/term.c: after rewind, we are at frame zero again

2006-08-21 13:20  thor

	* src/mpg123.c: non-vbr seek mode does also count frames in
	  read_frame

2006-08-21 13:18  thor

	* src/mpg123.h, src/readers.c: take long arguments as frame offset

2006-08-21 13:02  thor

	* src/common.c, src/common.h, src/control_generic.c, src/mpg123.c,
	  src/mpg123.h, src/readers.c, src/term.c, src/term.h: big
	  thing... it's the initial addition of some sort of accurate
	  seeking in vbr (and strangely tagged) files. I didn't do it for
	  mmapped mode and I think I'll erase that one soon, anyway (you
	  can use stuff like /dev/shm or just trust your kernel buffers).
	  There are some changes more or less related to seeking that have
	  been necessary. Most code is wrapped in #ifdef VBR seek now...

2006-08-21 12:56  thor

	* src/httpget.c: adding workaround for rautemusik internet
	  radio... their server doesn't like the port in Host request
	  header! (gives endless relocations)

2006-08-21 12:21  thor

	* src/audio_alsa.c: make the close foolproof (instead of fixing
	  the code that calls it without having the device opened before)

2006-08-21 11:58  thor

	* src/audio_alsa.c, src/term.c: Now more proper alsa code from
	  clemens; fixing the remaining buffer mode crashes by making
	  term.c more aware of the fact that if there is a buffer, no one
	  else should mess with the audio device.

2006-08-17 07:46  thor

	* src/common.c, src/readers.c: Ok, changed the check in read_frame
	  back to comparig the new header with first and old header. That
	  is a pragmatic change that gives some false negatives but still
	  allows seeking in this one evil file at all. Blind seeking in
	  vbr files is evil.

2006-08-17 07:38  thor

	* src/common.c, src/common.h, src/readers.c: Started workign on
	  the seeking (and fixed the second-time id3v2 recognition to
	  happen in quiet mode , too, by the way). The seeking is a mess
	  but necessarily so for vbr files that we don't have a frame
	  mapping for (from Xing header - not used atm, though). Now the
	  seeking at least works for this one very vbr file (where no
	  frame is like the first!) where formerly any seekl lead directly
	  to end-of-track. There is a tradeoff: Now we get false positives
	  from time to time. We should treat Xing-tagged vbr files with
	  all the info we have and at least warn about vbr files that lack
	  the seeking info.

2006-08-17 00:06  thor

	* src/common.c, src/common.h, src/control_generic.c: One place to
	  calculate current seconds, frames to go... also introduced
	  mean_framesize to make better estimates on remaining track
	  length for vbr files without xing header (from which the number
	  of frames is known).

2006-08-15 18:22  thor

	* INSTALL: one should say what is needed even if trivial

2006-08-15 17:06  thor

	* src/audio_alsa.c: code and vars!

2006-08-15 15:13  thor

	* src/term.c, src/term.h: give a clue about control via online help

2006-08-15 14:54  thor

	* src/term.c, src/term.h: space bar is very intuitive for the
	  stop(real pause) function

2006-08-15 13:57  thor

	* src/audio_alsa.c: ALSA: you need to prepare after drop; solving
	  the buffer kill / no sound after "b" issue following suggestion
	  from Clemens Ladisch

2006-08-14 22:16  njh

	* src/audio_sdl.c: Previously forgot to free up ringer buffer in
	  audio_close(). Changed to using new debugging and error macros.

2006-08-14 22:05  njh

	* src/audio_macosx.c: Got so fed up with trying to get
	  audio_queueflush() working that I changed everything to use
	  SFIFO code instead.

2006-08-14 17:04  njh

	* src/audio_macosx.c: Initialise env to NULL.

2006-08-14 16:41  njh

	* src/audio_macosx.c: Fixed bug #1532711. Can now call
	  audio_close() before audio_open() without crash.

2006-08-13 21:53  thor

	* src/audio_alsa.c: alsa queueflush with snd_pcm_drop is
	  troublesome...

2006-08-13 21:52  thor

	* src/common.c: reading id3v2 frames anytime when encountered

2006-08-13 19:53  thor

	* src/audio_alsa.c: queueflush for alsa needs fixing with buffer;
	  bug id 1536513

2006-08-13 19:51  thor

	* src/mpg123.c: this check is not complete nonsense
