Change how the backend emulator library is initialized for libSIDPlay2 and
FP, as it seems the engine configuration has some persistence despite
reconfiguration between loaded files if same engine object is retained. This
caused, for example, 2SID stereo tunes being played "mono" if played after a
normal 1-SID tune. Duh.

40 "README" for more info. |
| 7 | 41 |
| 175 | 42 * Minimum and maximum playtime settings. If enabled, song will |
| 43 be played for given time minimum and maximum. This can be | |
| 44 used as a fall-back method if song-length database does not | |
| 45 contain information for selected tune. | |
| 7 | 46 |
| 175 | 47 * Improved file information dialog. |
| 7 | 48 |
| 49 * XMMS v1.2.5 introduced the "generic title format" that | |
| 50 can be used to have same format titles for those | |
| 51 plugins that support it. XMMS-SID is now one of them. | |
| 52 There is also an overriding option, that enables you | |
| 53 to have SID-specific titles. See the configuration | |
| 54 dialog for more information. | |
| 55 | |
| 175 | 56 * New sub-song control methods as selectable options. Does |
| 57 not require patching of XMMS anymore, so they are easier | |
| 221 | 58 to use. The XMMS patch used by older versions is |
| 59 supported as well, though. | |
| 7 | 60 |
| 61 * Throw in a handful of bugfixes (and possibly new bugs), | |
| 62 stir powerfully. Finally, sprinkle some minor improvements | |
| 63 on the top and voéla! | |
| 64 | |
| 65 | |
| 1 | 66 Version 0.7 |
| 67 =========== | |
| 68 * Much improved file information dialog. Now shows all relevant | |
| 69 info neatly and orderly. Parses STIL information and shows it | |
| 70 on fileinfo if enabled. | |
| 71 | |
| 72 * Updated the xmms song-position patch which makes possible | |
| 73 to use the position slider to change sub-tune SID and also | |
| 74 pattern position in MikMod plugin. Now patches and works | |
| 75 correctly with recent XMMS versions. | |
| 76 | |
| 77 * STIL-database file-selector in config dialog. | |
| 78 | |
| 79 * Additional improvements from Willem to the song-pos patch! | |
| 80 | |
| 81 * And the standard load of bugfixes and minor improvements. | |
| 82 | |
| 83 | |
| 84 Version 0.6 | |
| 85 =========== | |
| 86 Improved configuration: | |
| 87 | |
| 7 | 88 * Filters are now configurable, you can adjust all three |
| 89 parameters of libsidplay: FS, FM and FT. See "Filter" | |
| 90 panel of configuration dialog. | |
| 1 | 91 |
| 7 | 92 * STIL database path can be set and STIL usage can be enabled |
| 93 and disabled from configuration dialog's "STIL" panel. | |
| 1 | 94 |
| 7 | 95 * Songname / info is now configurable like in the mpg123 plugin, |
| 96 with %1..%n, see the "STIL" panel of configuration dialog. | |
| 1 | 97 |
| 98 | |
| 99 Version 0.5 | |

| 102 xmms-sid v0.4 by Willem Monsuwe. | |
| 103 | |
