New version 0.6.1a released. No more random songs for anyone.

You can get rid of those stupid next and previous buttons which made you listen to random songs every time you pressed them.

I've solved a couple of issues too.

As usual, the release notes below.

  • Next and Previous buttons always started a random song (thanks to those who noticed it).
  • App crashed when no playlist existed.

New version 0.6.1 shows up in Market. Shake problems solved.

I've just released another version in the Market. It will solve a crash that was happening very frequently to (probably) a lot of people.

I've focused this version also to improve a little the Managing playlist section.

See the release notes below for more detailed info.

Release notes

New Features:
  • Now it's possible to add files from different folders at the same time (in Managing playlists section).
  • A dialog with a progress bar is shown when adding files to playlist.

Solved issues:
  • Shake actions were performed even though shake actions were disabled.
  • App crashed always doing a Start Next Random shake action.
  • Items in the root of a disk volume couldn't be added to playlists.
  • The time progress bar got stuck eventually.
  • More stability issues have been fixed.
Update:
There's been a problem with the normal version (not the PRO) and I've had to reupload again the apk. If anyone has already updated, will have to update again.
Sorry for the inconveniences.

    New version 0.6.0. So little outside - So much inside.

    It may look like there aren't lots of new features and this is a minor release, but the code has been majorly changed to improve stability and speed and make the app more scalable for future features.


    Please bear in mind that you should install the last PC-side installer (download here) to have the app fully working.


    Take a look at the long release notes for more info:

    • Added Hungarian language (thanks Lajos Toth).
    • Loading icon is shown when loading album art, playlist or media library browser.
    • Current playing song info is retrieved faster (only using the last PC-side installer).

    Solvd issues:

    • More of the same... artist didn't work.
    • Some very large album arts were not shown.
    • Corrected translation of SAC feature.
    • Corrected some translations from some languages.
    • The app took too long to refresh after exiting from settings.
    • The albumart was re-downloaded even though it was the same that was already downloaded.
    • Every request to foobar2000 is now faster (only using the last PC-side installer).
    • Improved Shake actions performance.

    Known issues:

    • A song is not shown as the one playing (in the playlist or media library browser) if it's enqueued more the once in the current queue.
    • When the app is downloading a large albumart, it can't skip to the next song until the download finishes.
    • The app can work slower after having downloaded and showed the  playlist.
    • The app may work slow with 500 and 1000 playlist items per page.




    P.S. In a few days, I'll may show you a sneak preview of the v1.0 UI.

    Getting ready for next version...(PC-Side needs an upgrade!)

    I've been working on the next version and the Server-side will need some update too so the app can work faster.

    I've uploaded the PC installer (and also the .zip file) updated so you can be getting ready for the next version.

    It just updates the HTTP Control component (to 0.97.9) and adds some needed files.

    Please, upgrade the installation the sooner the better so you don't have any problem with the next version.

    There are already some languages taken!

    Hi all, I just wanted to update the translation status.

    Thanks to several volunteers, the app is so far translated / being translated into:
    • Spanish
    • German
    • French
    • Polish
    • Russian
    • Portuguese
    • Korean
    • Dutch

    I'd like to thank again all of them who are helping me translating it.

    I'd like to remember you that any language is welcome. 
    Japanese, Swedish and Italian might be the most used (and not yet translated) languages, though.


    That'll be all for now!
