libopenmpt 0.2-beta22 (2017-03-11)
[Bug] Possible NULL-pointer dereference read during obscure out-of-memory situations while handling exceptions in the C API.
[Bug] libmodplug: libmodplug.pc was wrong.
[Bug] Cross-compiling libopenmpt with autotools for Windows now properly sets -municode and -mconsole as well as all required Windows system libraries.
[Bug] Excessive loading times with malformed ITP / truncated AMS files.
[Bug] libopenmpt on Windows did not properly guard against current working directory DLL injection attacks.
[Change] The Makefile and Autotools build system got new options USE_DLOPEN and --enable-dlopen respectively which are required to be set in order to load 3rd-party libraries dynamically. Additionally, the defaults for detecting libdl and libltdl now also default to off with autotools. This change has been made in order to make the default configuration as secure as possible. Both build systems default to dependencies that facilitate native MO3 decoding internally anyway, thus there is actually no practical disadvantage with the new default settings at all.
[Change] Un4seen unmo3 support is now completely disabled by default in all configurations and build systems.
[Regression] In order to securely load libmpg123, the Windows binary packages only support the precise libmpg123 binary that is downloaded by the download_mpg123.vbs script. Other binaries might also work, but this has neither been tested nor is officially supported from now on.
Autotools build system now has options --disable-openmpt123, --disable-tests and --disable-examples which may be desireable when cross-compiling.
Windows binary packages now include a script download_mpg123.vbs which downloads libmpg123 and copies it to the appropriate directories relative to the uncompressed binary archive.
Do not set note volume to 0 on out-of-range offset in XM files.
Better import of some slide commands in SFX files.
Sample 15 in "Crew Generation" by Necros requires short loops at the beginning of the sample to not be ignored. Since we need to ignore them in some (non-ProTracker) modules, we heuristically disable the old loop sanitization behaviour based on the module channel count.
Both normal and percentage offset in PLM files were handled as percentage offset.
seek.sync_samples=1 did not apply PTM reverse offset effect and the volume slide part of combined volume slide + vibrato commands.
libopenmpt 0.2-beta21 (skipped)
Version 0.2-beta21 has been skipped in order to avoid confusion with libtool version of libopenmpt 0.3.0-pre.0 and 0.3.0-pre.1 development versions.

This Opus 1.1.4 release fixes a single bug. A specially-crafted
Opus packet could cause an integer wrap-around in the SILK LSF
stabilization code. This would cause an out-of-bounds read 256
bytes before a constant table. In most circumstances, the consequences
are harmless and the result is simply noise in the audio.
This was reported as CVE-2017-0381. Contrary to that report, our
own analysis shows that no remote code execution is possible.
However, we are making this release as a precaution.

applications
* New module for prioritizing passthrough streams
(module-allow-passthrough)
* Fixed hotplugging support for USB surround sound cards
* Separate volumes for Bluetooth A2DP and HSP profiles

* Clarified qpaeq license
## Notes for end users
### Automatically switch Bluetooth profile when using VoIP applications
Bluetooth headsets typically support both the A2DP profile, which is
suitable for music, and the HSP profile, which is suitable for
telephony use cases. module-bluetooth-policy will now automatically
switch the profile of a Bluetooth headset from A2DP to HSP/HFP when an
application creates a recording stream with property media.role=phone
(telephony applications should set that property for their
streams). When the stream goes away, the profile gets restored back to
A2DP. This way the user doesn't have to manually switch the profiles
when starting and stopping a call. This behaviour can be disabled by
giving argument auto_switch=false to module-bluetooth-policy.
### New module for prioritizing passthrough streams (module-allow-passthrough)
Passthrough streams are streams whose content must go completely unaltered from the application to the sound card, and they are mainly used for playing back compressed audio through an S/PDIF connection. When a passthrough stream is playing to a device, no other streams can play at the same time to the same device, and if there's already something playing when a passthrough stream is created, the passthrough stream creation will normally fail. Now we have a new module, called module-allow-passthrough, which will give higher priority to passthrough streams, so that if there are other streams playing when a passthrough stream is created, those other streams will be moved out of the way to a dummy device.
### Fixed hotplugging support for USB surround sound cards
A long-standing bug that prevented PulseAudio from using any
hotplugged USB surround sound cards has been fixed.
### Separate volumes for Bluetooth A2DP and HSP profiles
The Bluetooth sink and source names are now different depending on
whether the active profile is A2DP or HSP. This allows PulseAudio to
store different volumes for A2DP and HSP. Due to different mechanisms
for implementing volume control between the profiles, trying to use
the same volume value in PulseAudio doesn't actually result in the
same perceived volume, so it's better not to try to use the same
volume.
As an unfortunate transition effect, volumes saved earlier with an
older PulseAudio version won't have effect in the new PulseAudio
version, so all Bluetooth devices will have their volume reset to the
default value when running the new PulseAudio version for the first
time.
This only affects BlueZ 5 users. The same change was done already
earlier for PulseAudio's BlueZ 4 code.
### memfd-based shared memory mechanism enabled by default
The memfd-based shared memory mechanism that was implemented in 9.0 is
now enabled by default. This shouldn't cause any user-visible changes
in behaviour, except if you're using the Firejail sandboxing software,
which doesn't work with PulseAudio's old shared memory mechanism.
If desired, the feature can still be disabled by setting "enable-memfd
= no" either in daemon.conf (for disabling it at the server side) or
in client.conf (for disabling it at the client side).
### Removed module-xenpv-sink
module-xenpv-sink was removed, because it's probably not used by
anyone. If you use it, please let us know.
## Notes for packagers
### Dropped dependency to json-c
libpulse previously used json-c internally, which forced applications
to link to json-c too. That caused crashing in some GLib applications,
because json-c and json-glib both use the same name for some
functions. To solve this, we implemented the necessary JSON
functionality directly in libpulse, so we don't depend on json-c any
more.
### When using systemd to start PulseAudio, pulseaudio.socket is always started first
The pulseaudio.service unit now depends on pulseaudio.socket, meaning
that before systemd starts PulseAudio, it will always first set up the
socket. This is done to avoid confusing behaviour in certain corner
cases (see the comments in pulseaudio.service for a more detailed
explanation).
### Compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.0
OpenSSL, which is used by module-raop-sink, broke backwards
compatibility in the 1.1.0 release. PulseAudio now supports both 1.1.0
and older versions.
### Clarified qpaeq license
Most of PulseAudio is licensed under LGPL, but the "qpaeq" equalizer
GUI is licensed under AGPL. That hasn't previously been mentioned
anywhere else than in the qpaeq source code itself. Therefore,
distributions that tag their packages with license information have
likely used incorrect information. The license of qpaeq hasn't
changed, but the use of AGPL is now correctly noted in the top-level
LICENSE file.
