26 selected tune. |
7 | 27 |
35 | 28 * Improved file information dialog: Sub-song "name" or |
29 "title" is shown (if any) in the sub-song selector. | |
30 If "name" is found for the song, it is shown, if not, | |
31 then "title" is checked for and shown if found. | |
7 | 32 |
33 * XMMS v1.2.5 introduced the "generic title format" that | |
34 can be used to have same format titles for those | |
35 plugins that support it. XMMS-SID is now one of them. | |
36 There is also an overriding option, that enables you | |
37 to have SID-specific titles. See the configuration | |
38 dialog for more information. | |
39 | |
93 | 40 * New sub-song control. Does not require patching of XMMS, |
41 so this is easier to use. The patch is supported too, if | |
42 found, but it's not "required" anymore. It's still handy | |
43 for those who want the additional functionality it | |
44 provides for other plugins. | |
7 | 45 |
46 * Throw in a handful of bugfixes (and possibly new bugs), | |
47 stir powerfully. Finally, sprinkle some minor improvements | |
48 on the top and voéla! | |
49 | |
50 | |
1 | 51 Version 0.7 |
52 =========== | |
53 * Much improved file information dialog. Now shows all relevant | |
54 info neatly and orderly. Parses STIL information and shows it | |
55 on fileinfo if enabled. | |
56 | |
57 * Updated the xmms song-position patch which makes possible | |
58 to use the position slider to change sub-tune SID and also | |
59 pattern position in MikMod plugin. Now patches and works | |
60 correctly with recent XMMS versions. | |
61 | |
62 * STIL-database file-selector in config dialog. | |
63 | |
64 * Additional improvements from Willem to the song-pos patch! | |
65 | |
66 * And the standard load of bugfixes and minor improvements. | |
67 | |
68 | |
69 Version 0.6 | |
70 =========== | |
71 Improved configuration: | |
72 | |
7 | 73 * Filters are now configurable, you can adjust all three |
74 parameters of libsidplay: FS, FM and FT. See "Filter" | |
75 panel of configuration dialog. | |
1 | 76 |
7 | 77 * STIL database path can be set and STIL usage can be enabled |
78 and disabled from configuration dialog's "STIL" panel. | |
1 | 79 |
7 | 80 * Songname / info is now configurable like in the mpg123 plugin, |
81 with %1..%n, see the "STIL" panel of configuration dialog. | |
1 | 82 |
83 | |
84 Version 0.5 | |
85 =========== | |
86 This version is a "new branch" based on the original | |
87 xmms-sid v0.4 by Willem Monsuwe. | |
88 | |
89 This development branch is maintained by Matti "ccr" Hamalainen of TNSP. | |
90 | |
