  • the Solitary Confinement version
  • fixed the crash when trying to use any applescript (eg: sending a crash report(!) or unzip with stuffit)
  • no longer get a beep if you rip a song that has no artist info (not that you could do that anyway)
  • the CDG encoder is back to transitioning pages from top to bottom. only the text sweeping now goes left to right. hmm, i'll have to fix that for right-to-left scripts... eventually there will be a "transition" popup so you can select what type of transition you want
  • no more "ASSERT(i_songID != SDB_kOrphanID)" oops!!
  • Producer: no more assert(page_rec.size()
  • Producer: new kind of template: resource path. eg: "[/Resources/kJams.pct]" will load up the picture from the kJams resource folder. note: only the Resources folder is supported, and only .pct files are supported. And there's only one pict in there, and it's kJams.pct. so really only that picture is supported. haha.
  • d49r1 April 9 2007 Lite Pro
  • some people were crashing when ripping SuperCDG discs. I tweaked the code a bit, i hope that helps. Tho i'm sure i'll find out soon enough. Update: Shit.
  • some people were crashing on startup. fixed.
  • Producer:
    • You can use the Secret Prefs to set which intro and outro template to use for your TunePrompter conversions
    • TunePrompter conversion uses a slightly better font size and now has more correct spacing. (tho vertical offset i think is still wrong)
    • in the timeline window, you can now see the lyrics across the timeline
    • in the timeline window, it now animates all slickly when you press play (sweeeet!)
    • the graphics window does not flash up your comps during play or when the mouse button is down
    • in the timeline window, each lyric has a little bar showing you it's start / end time
    • in the timeline window you can now drag and trim each lyric to fix the timing. dam this is fucking cool.
  • d49r2 April 11 2007 Lite Pro
  • no longer crashing during FindMatchingSong, not sure when that happens but it's fixed
  • still have NOT fixed the bug ripping SuperCDGs, i don't think...
  • you can search by PLI again, but not for long. you need to be using Song IDs, not PLI
  • Producer
    • when loading in a previously existing TunePrompter file, the duration would not be set, fixed
    • loading existing TunePrompter files would cause the file names to be "unrecovered" meaning em-dashes got turned back into dashes, this would cause the cache to get out of sync and you'd lose some of your work, plus the metadata would no longer be recoverable from the file name.
    • i lost the justify command, for text, now it's back
    • fixed a rendering bug that would cause some text pages to load at the wrong time, possibly overwriting the sweep text that followed
    • you can now drag the comp bars from the left edge
    • fixed dragging comp elements in the video window (you can now see what you're dragging again)
    • while working in the timeline, your changes are saved automatically
    • durations are now correctly set for all comp bars
  • d49r3 April 12 2007 Lite Pro
  • Two new meta massaging features: "Title Case" and "Inter Caps". Title case will convert artist/album/song name/genre using Title Case (capitalizing start and end, and middle words that are not in the list: an, the, of, at etc). Inter Caps will capitalize every word.
  • every dialog that said "One Moment Please" now has a elipsis "…" after it :)
  • if you try to delete a song, or add to library, during a SORT task, you are denied with a warning. HAH! (prevents you from crashing yourself)
  • if you select more than 10 songs and go "reveal in finder" you're asked if you really meant to do that.
  • when you "reinterpret names" on a large selection, you now get a progress dialog, how nice! now it doesn't seem hung.
  • when you drag and drop into the app, you now get the warning dialogs about that it does not copy and you're offered a chance to pick tags or meta (if you haven't shut that off)
  • Fixed "Menu/File/Rip Selected" to say the right thing
  • no longer leaking Coca goo all over the floor the first time you do export to quicktime
  • when ripping to quicktime, no longer write meta data xml into the cache (not necessary since it is written into the library, just makes clutter)
  • fixed a file corruption bug when using QuickTime.mov+G as your encoder, would cause the file to become unusable, you'd go to play it and get nothing, no warning, just no song. Due to meta data rewrite corruption. I'm no longer even attempting to write meta to QuickTime files since it's so spotty, i'm just bailing to Xattr.
  • setting a meta to it's default value will now delete the meta (since asking for a missing meta returns the default value, thus saving space)
  • Pro: the singer's "Here" list is now updated (re-sorted) when singers are marked here or not (if you're sorted by "here")
  • Pro: the list of singers in the sources panel is now correctly updated as singers are added/removed
  • intercap and titlecase now do the correct thing with "AC/DC" :)
  • when you right (control) click on the sort column headers (to add or remove columns), 1) if you click past the end it no longer shows something to pick at the top and 2) if you are scrolled to the right it actually works, rather than pretending you are not scrolled at all
  • the song name interpretation dialog will now allow you to use the Song Name instead of the File Name. This lets you "fix" songs that would not interpret correctly (usually due to an extra or missing space beside a dash) then reinterpret. You can also reinterpret *ignoring* em-dashes if you hold the option key when bringing up the dialog.
  • in the Interpret dialog, names are drawn in "recovered" format, (no em-dashes, or squished slashes etc)
    • Producer
    • the "Fade" button now creates a real comp marker that you can drag around and set the duration
    • the "fade out" inserted at the end of a KTP file now uses the above comp marker thing
    • when dragging the time marker in the Overview pane (top timeline), while the song is playing, it will continue to play even while you're dragging
