25 selected tune. |
| 7 | 26 |
| 27 * Improved file information dialog: | |
| 28 | |
| 29 - Sub-song "name" or "title" is shown (if any) in the | |
| 30 sub-song selector. If "name" is found for the song, | |
| 31 it is shown, if not, then "title" is checked for | |
| 32 and shown if found. | |
| 33 | |
| 34 * XMMS v1.2.5 introduced the "generic title format" that | |
| 35 can be used to have same format titles for those | |
| 36 plugins that support it. XMMS-SID is now one of them. | |
| 37 There is also an overriding option, that enables you | |
| 38 to have SID-specific titles. See the configuration | |
| 39 dialog for more information. | |
| 40 | |
| 41 * New SIDAmp-style sub-song selector window. Does not | |
| 42 require patching of XMMS, so this is easier to use. | |
| 43 The patch is not used by XMMS-SID, but included for | |
| 44 those who want the additional functionality it provides | |
| 45 for other plugins. | |
| 46 | |
| 47 * Throw in a handful of bugfixes (and possibly new bugs), | |
| 48 stir powerfully. Finally, sprinkle some minor improvements | |
| 49 on the top and voéla! | |
| 50 | |
| 51 | |
| 1 | 52 Version 0.7 |
| 53 =========== | |
| 54 * Much improved file information dialog. Now shows all relevant | |
| 55 info neatly and orderly. Parses STIL information and shows it | |
| 56 on fileinfo if enabled. | |
| 57 | |
| 58 * Updated the xmms song-position patch which makes possible | |
| 59 to use the position slider to change sub-tune SID and also | |
| 60 pattern position in MikMod plugin. Now patches and works | |
| 61 correctly with recent XMMS versions. | |
| 62 | |
| 63 * STIL-database file-selector in config dialog. | |
| 64 | |
| 65 * Additional improvements from Willem to the song-pos patch! | |
| 66 | |
| 67 * And the standard load of bugfixes and minor improvements. | |
| 68 | |
| 69 | |
| 70 Version 0.6 | |
| 71 =========== | |
| 72 Improved configuration: | |
| 73 | |
| 7 | 74 * Filters are now configurable, you can adjust all three |
| 75 parameters of libsidplay: FS, FM and FT. See "Filter" | |
| 76 panel of configuration dialog. | |
| 1 | 77 |
| 7 | 78 * STIL database path can be set and STIL usage can be enabled |
| 79 and disabled from configuration dialog's "STIL" panel. | |
| 1 | 80 |
| 7 | 81 * Songname / info is now configurable like in the mpg123 plugin, |
| 82 with %1..%n, see the "STIL" panel of configuration dialog. | |
| 1 | 83 |
| 84 | |
| 85 Version 0.5 | |
| 86 =========== | |
| 87 This version is a "new branch" based on the original | |
| 88 xmms-sid v0.4 by Willem Monsuwe. | |
| 89 | |
| 90 This development branch is maintained by Matti "ccr" Hamalainen of TNSP. | |
| 91 | |
