Version 1.0d47: Not Released Yet

  • oops, fixed the version number so it *actually* reads "d46". Don't worry, you're up to date!
  • fixed the "can't move / extract this on a background thread" for most types. Lost out: "AMR Narrowband" and "Qualcom PureVoice™", too bad for you guys.
  • in preparation for VideoCD compatability, I've got MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 playback going! wow it works! You'll have to install the free ffmpeg plugin. For MPEG-2 (ergo SuperVideoCD) you'll also need the USD$20 Playback plugin.
  • Xattr data is now supported on 10.3, using sidecar files
  • if you set meta info on a song, then delete it, you don't crash
  • the undo/redo menu items have been disabled, since they only cause a crash at this point anyway
  • when adding to library, i again create a playlist with "corrupted zip files" but only if you use tags, not file names.
  • d46r1 Mar 25 2007 Lite Pro

What My Plan Is

  • ubiquitous use of xattr info for *all* song data (this in prep for finally getting rid of the song database, and using the files directly)
  • ability to zip all songs in library that are not already zipped.
  • instant sorting & remembering of browser viewer settings per playlist
  • fully customizable columns
  • re-canonicalize the names (up folders)
  • done! AppleScriptability for QuickTime (iPod) Export
  • done! Ability to play ALL quicktime types, even those that "can't be moved / extracted on a background thread"
  • Ability to rip, play & burn VCDs
  • ability to burn (pitch bent) audio portion of non-CDG songs (aif, mov, midi, mpeg, kar etc)
  • ability to QT Export any file type (midi, kar, mpeg)
  • iTunes integration (browse & play with pitch & tempo)
  • (Wow then we can go Alpha!!)

Pokers In the Fire

  • "smooth as glass" quicktime playback, using QTKit (this will enable full 30fps playback even with both video windows open and set to maximumm size)
  • auto update the Map whenever someone makes a purchase (parse purchase info, geocode for lat/lon, add to address book, update map data, upload map data). Update: I have written a nice applescript that can parse my email and extract a new address book entry, including geocoded lat/lon info. Neat!
  • FINALLY done! Wow this saves me like an hour each time i make a new release! auto-publish when I build a new version and invoke a script (export new vers.html file, zip lite and pro, upload lite and pro, upload vers file). Update: I now have all the parts I need for the workflow, just have to sew it all together now

Bugs I'm aware of that will be fixed

  • the album popup may crash under certain situations
  • setting meta info on dozens of files at once will make your computer crawl. open the tasks window and watch it, if there are tasks then DON'T DO ANYTHING until they're all done. Especially don't edit meta info while playing a song or ripping. Note: it takes TEN seconds after you set meta info for it's task to fire, so wait ten seconds when you look into the tasks window

To Do

  • finish CDPedia support
  • 80% done: ability to cue two songs for cross fade (same as: ability to export QuickTime (or iPod) at the same time as playing some other song)
  • Allow a 'placeholder' track to be input into a singer's "Tonight" list, that includes the disc name and track number, and when it comes up, the dialog comes up, says "stick in the disc", to let it play direct from disc, automatically picking the right track. Alternately, allow KJ to drag a track from a CD into a playlist. then, eject disc. when that song is coming up next, put up a dialog that says "please stick that disc back in" and it'll go play it from disc, Alternately, rip the song when it gets drug from the CD into the singer's "Tonight"
