(Almost) New Year. New version. 0.7.0 is ready to be downloaded

It's been too long since I released the last version but here's a new one!

I hope you like the new version and please keep the comments and feedback coming!

Release notes

New features:

• Revamped interface.
• Album name in main layout.
• Volume bar in main layout.
• Stop button in main layout.
• Next random song in main layout.
• Refresh rate configurable in settings.
• Catalan language added (thanks Enric Martí)
• Russian language added (thanks Денис Пузанков)

Solved issues:

• Album art didn\'t appear in some devices (solved also for Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.0 ICS).
• Some really huge Album arts could make the app crash or make no Album art displayed at all.
• Some other bugfixes.

Known issues:

• Album art glossy effect is disabled. It will be improved and enabled for future versions.
• Volume bar is a bit buggy sometimes.

Important note for Android 1.5 users:

I'm sorry guys but Android 1.5 (Cupcake) is no longer supported. You can still use the current version you have but 0.7 is completely incompatible. If the update appears in Market, please do not update.

Happy new year to everyone!

Stay tuned. Something's coming...

I can't say pretty much more but stay tuned because something is coming in the following days...

I can only say that all those who complain about not having the volume accessible, or stop button (or even next random song!) will be happy with what's coming.. :D

All those iOS-haters don't worry..

Catalan and Russian lovers/speakers will rejoice too.

New version 0.6.4b. Cool characters in server's name are now possible

This small release fixes only a problem with special characters such as apostrophe, slash, quotes, etc. 

Now it's possible to use them freely. 

The behaviour with previous versions is unpredictable, so I don't recommend that you try it before updating...

Release notes

Solved issues:

• There were problems with some special characters in server's name (apostrophe, slashes, quotes, etc.)

BTW, thanks to someone who might be called Mike and wanted to name his server "mike's desktop" :D

What will the new UI look like?

Well, as I promised, here you have some very very early previews of what will the new UI planned to v1.0 (probably won't be seen this year..) look like.

Keep in mind this is just an EARLY preview of the UI. It may end up being something very different or not.

I show it to you so you can critizie it and I can improve it to make it more user-friendly.

Let's the criticism begin! ;P

 

   

New version 0.6.4a. CPU consumption goes back to normal.

Here's a small version which fixes a couple of things.

The most important one is the one about the CPU consumption but there's also another one who annoyed so many people (the one about the lists).

Anyhow, enjoy the new version!

Release notes

• Media Library Browser and File Browser lists keep the scroll position when going back.
• CPU consumption was way too high when the app was in background. (Thanks to Galen and Paul Rewston for noticing it).
• Solved more stability issues.

New version 0.6.4. Incoming calls do things.

Have you ever received a phone call and missed it because your foobar2000 was way too loud?? If so, it's your lucky day. If don't, good for you!

Now incoming calls do nice things such as pausing and muting foobar2000.

What do you think?

Some more cool stuff has been added. Check it out in the release notes below.

Release notes

New features:

• Added pause on incoming call (configurable via settings).
• Added automatic reconnection.
• Added configurable volume up/down steps.

Solved issues:

• App didn't notice when rating was changed in foobar2000 or in another device using foobar2000controller.
• Solved more stability issues.

New version 0.6.3. Wake-on-LAN makes its debut.

As you could see in release notes from 0.6.2, there was a new MAC setting.

Why would I want the MAC from the server if it weren't for Wake-on-LAN purposes?

That's it! The major feature introduced in this new version is the Wake-on-LAN capability.

Remember to fill the MAC field when adding a new server if you want to use this new WOL ability.

You can wake up servers in the "Disconnected" screen or in the "Manage servers" section.

Release notes

New features:

• Added Wake-on-LAN functionality.
• Added empty current playlist option in Manage playlist section.

Solved issues:

• Solved some issues from Discover server funcionality.
