XMMS-SID - SIDPlay input plugin for X MultiMedia System (XMMS) ============================================================== List of user-visible changes in XMMS-SID (See ChangeLog for more complete listing of changes) Version 0.8 =========== * Support for multiple emulator libraries, including libSIDPlay 2.x! See instructions in "INSTALL" for more information. * HVSC song-length database support. XMMS-SID now supports the XSIDPLAY's song-length database for tunes contained in HVSC collection. Requires downloading of a small package (few hundred kB's), that contains the database. Read "README" for more info. * Minimum and maximum playtime settings. If enabled, song will be played for given time minimum and maximum. This can be used as a fall-back method if song-length database does not contain information for selected tune. * Improved file information dialog. * XMMS v1.2.5 introduced the "generic title format" that can be used to have same format titles for those plugins that support it. XMMS-SID is now one of them. There is also an overriding option, that enables you to have SID-specific titles. See the configuration dialog for more information. * New sub-song control methods as selectable options. Does not require patching of XMMS anymore, so they are easier to use. The old XMMS-patch is supported as well, though. * Throw in a handful of bugfixes (and possibly new bugs), stir powerfully. Finally, sprinkle some minor improvements on the top and voéla! Version 0.7 =========== * Much improved file information dialog. Now shows all relevant info neatly and orderly. Parses STIL information and shows it on fileinfo if enabled. * Updated the xmms song-position patch which makes possible to use the position slider to change sub-tune SID and also pattern position in MikMod plugin. Now patches and works correctly with recent XMMS versions. * STIL-database file-selector in config dialog. * Additional improvements from Willem to the song-pos patch! * And the standard load of bugfixes and minor improvements. Version 0.6 =========== Improved configuration: * Filters are now configurable, you can adjust all three parameters of libsidplay: FS, FM and FT. See "Filter" panel of configuration dialog. * STIL database path can be set and STIL usage can be enabled and disabled from configuration dialog's "STIL" panel. * Songname / info is now configurable like in the mpg123 plugin, with %1..%n, see the "STIL" panel of configuration dialog. Version 0.5 =========== This version is a "new branch" based on the original xmms-sid v0.4 by Willem Monsuwe. This development branch is maintained by Matti "ccr" Hamalainen of TNSP. Please consider that when thinking where to send bug reports. - Few minor bugfixes. - STIL support works now better (quite beta still, though) - Cleaned up sources somewhat. - Added a about dialog. - Re-organized the source structure. - Improved detection of the XMMS paths and stuff in configure. Version 0.4 =========== - First release, so nothing new.
