keybindings.general section of the pytonerc file (thanks to Alexander
Wirt <formorer at formorer dot de> for suggesting this).
2005-12-05 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* services/player.py: Start player only after the playlist service has
been started since playlist requests may already be issued during the
player startup. This fixes an long-standing problem reported by several
people on the mailing list.
2005-11-07 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* filelist.py: Update top after changing back into a directory as the
window size may have changed in the meantime (thanks to Martin Fenelon
<fenm at freeuk dot com> for reporting this problem).

<smithbone at gmail dot com> for providing the patch).
2005-08-21 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* Merged item-rework branch, which contains a new filter code.
The new code makes the unfiltered case a special case of the filtered
one. As a result, more than one filter can be applied, e.g., filtering
for all songs in a certain genre of a given decade and with a given
rating is now possible. Furthermore, every index now contains a
(nearly) full directory hierarchy, thus allowing things like showing
the top-played songs of a certain genre.
2005-08-19 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* Get rid of multi-file database layout:
- convert old layout automatically
- leave configuration file switches basename and dbfile intact but
warn the user when they are non-empty
- in a next step, we will set the default value of the basename
switch to an empty value (when presumably all databases have been
converted)
- finally as a final step, we remove the switches and require
that the users change their config files
* Database version 5: do not longer index by years but by decades
which removes many special code paths at various places in the db
code.
2005-08-11 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* bufferedao.c: New C extension module corresponding to
services/players/interal/buffereddevice with an ao device. The
advantage of the C module is that it does not have to rely on holding
the GIL when doing the output, which should help preventing sound
dropouts.
* services/players/internal.py: Make use of new extension module
bufferedao.
2005-08-10 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* services/songdbs/internal.py: Checkpoint database regularly during
registering of songs to prevent oversized transaction logs.

algorithm by a linear in time version to avoid huge system loads
at the end of the song registering process.

on shutdown.

latter module.
2005-01-23 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>

querying multiple databases. While this yields an improved caching

debug file code into the log module.
2004-11-24 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>

Schwerdhoefer and Han Boetes, George J. De Bruin, and Sam Rowe)

* Do not delete currently playing song when backspace is pressed.

playing time since the data has already been resampled to outrate.
2004-07-06 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* Removed some unnecessary selectionchanged notifications.
* dbitem.py: Finally switched from path as id to relative path as
id. This should facilitate moving songs from one base directory to
the other.
* Database version 3.
* Use artist and album from relative path as fallback if no id3
information is present and the relative path (with respect to
the musicbasedir) consists of exactly two directories.

displays to track the current position/selection (thanks to

crossfading in [players.*] sections, which allows the user to turn
off the crossfading of songs (suggested by Niels Drost <ndrost@cs
dot vu dot nl>).

in lastplayed list to later on permit merging of lists coming
from different databases. Upon upgrade, the last played song
list will be deleted!

* services/playlist.py: Upon deletion of played songs, the played and total
times info of the playlist have not been adapted.

* Better curses initialisation (thanks to Johannes Mockenhaupt <jmockenhaupt
at gmx dot net>)
* Add an extension module which provides support for transparent
terminals also for "older" Python versions (thanks to Johannes Mockenhaupt
<jmockenhaupt at gmx dot net>).

2003-02-07 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* services/playlist.py: Remove extraneous _checksong call in _addsongs method.
* services/playlist.py: Check whether song is already contained in a local
database. If yes, do not create a new entry in the primary database.

2003-12-13 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>

play.

* config.py: Fix wrong behaviour in mono mode, when no mono
attribute is given in config file.

2003-07-19 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* Fix missing os.path.expanduser around config file path
(thanks to David Braaten <xiticix47 at hotmail.com>)

restart the player, even though autoplay was enabled.
2003-05-17 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* Support default background color and try to use
curses.use_default_colors, if present. This requires
a new version of the Python curses module.
* Support ossaudiodev instead of ao interface. Unfortunately,
this doesn't work well with the current ossaudiodev module
of Python 2.3beta1. On the other hand, I was not able
to run the ao module with a debug build of current Python
CVS. Probably, ao is buggy.
* helpwin.py: Set self.items already in constructor, to
prevent possible crash, if one presses a key during
the PyTone initialization
* songdb.py: Remove unused and dangerous __len__ method,
which lead sometimes to a crash during the PyTone shutdown.
2003-05-13 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>

- cut string after first (non-leading) \0 character,
thereby fixing PyTone crashes reported by a few
users.
* slist.py: Fix bug in selectbysearchstring and selectbyletter,
reported by John Plevyak <jplevyak at acm.org>.
2003-05-06 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* mainscreen.py: Catch curses.curs_set exception (reported
by roland at steeltorch.com.
2003-05-05 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* More database work and tests. Genres now contain indices
to albums and songs
* album -> albumid at appropriate places
* introduced song.id, but not yet used
2003-05-01 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* Integrated and polished some patches by Iñigo Serna
<inigoserna at telefonica.net>: Currently playing song gets different colour and
stays centred in playlist. Furthermore, some sanity checks of the id3 tags
have been included. Finally, as suggested by him, a much nicer scrollbar
has been implemented.
* Support ossaudiodev module (and old oss module , of course) as
suggested by Bill Kearney <wkearney99 at hotmail.com>.
* Many fixes for bugs remaining from code restructuring.
2003-04-19 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>

* Network connectivity now via TCP instead of XML-RPC.
2003-04-13 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* Reworked config file as first step versus a
new config syntax. Import of the curses module
is no longer necessary (except for the check
whether the user has a color or a mono terminal,
which often doesn't work, so ...)
* Colors now have to be specified like in mutt
"color foreground background" or "mono attribute".
Foreground may contain the prefix "bright".
* Accept command line options for debugging output
and network functionality.
* Implement first rough cut of network functionality
via xmlrpc. Remote access to the database is now
possible.

* Flush buffers on player stop.
* Immediately play selected song via ALT+Return or ALT+Enter.
* Implemented shuffle function since it seemed to be very high on
the PyTone user's wishlist...
* Try to save state of playlist to dump file, if PyTone crashes.
During the next restart, PyTone tries to reconstruct the playlist.
* Be more verbose, if config.basedir and config.songddb are set
to incorrect values.

configurable.
* config.py, slist.py: Make scrolling mechanism configurable `a la
Mutt. Also use page up algorithm from mutt. Adapt to window size

yet ready for next version.
2002-12-30 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* players/madplayer.py: Set sample size to 4096 (instead of 4806,
i.e. the size of an mp3 frame). This is much more friendlier to
the sound device drivers! Thanks to Damjan Georgeivski
<penguinista at mail.net.mk> for pointing this out.
2002-12-22 Jörg Lehmann <joerg@luga.de>
* Use MP3Info.py from http://www.omniscia.org/~vivake/python

actual string. Otherwise only select the corresponding line.
I hope, this is more intuitive then the old behaviour.

can now choose between a popup and a status bar variant.
* inputwin.py: popup variant adjusts statusbar.
