LAME 3.98.3 February 27 2010
* Rogério Brito:
o Update the debian packaging for the new release.
* Robert Hegemann
o The ignore-tag-errors switch had no effect when embedding
album art, fixed.
o Library API change: lame_decode functions are now
obsolete but still present, please use hip_decode instead.
The reason for this change is: lame_decode functions use
a single global variable within the library to store
decoder setup, hip_decode functions don't. The encoder
now uses hip_decode internally and it is now possible to
use clipdetect feature while reencoding mp3 to mp3.
o Workaround for FFMPEG bug, which uses to call
lame_encode_flush more than once in a loop.
o Windows: program icon and version info added (when
building with VC9)
o Fix for Bugtracker item [ 2688413 ] lib name problem
in Microsoft Visual Studio 6
o Fix for Bugtracker items [ 2051870, 2423650, 2928684
] several small documentation issues
o Fix for Bugtracker item [ 2723518 ] resampling in 3.98
and 3.99alpha
o Fix for Bugtracker item [ 2891879 ] Because of Windows
API change, there was a problem with the prority switch.
o Fix for Bugtracker item [ 2893101 ] Access Violation
in BladeMP3EncDLL if UNICODE was defined.
o Fix for Bugtracker item [ 2887359 ] Wrong length in
ID3v2 tag when num_samples isn't set
o Fix for Bugtracker item [ 2872590 ] LameTAG: "Music
length" missmatch in LAME 3.98
o Fix for Bugtracker item [ 2824296 ] wrong enc_padding
value in LAME 3.99a and 3.98.3 (from CVS)
o Revisiting the FhG decoder problem (FhG V1.5 build 50,
ships with MS Windows): enabling the new-drain-code seems
to solve that issue better, than restricting the buffer
size (see below: 3.98 beta 1, May 16 2007).
o Patch submitted by Bernhard Doebler, tracker item [
2807676 ] Error when building Lame with NASM support
o Patch submitted by Mancuso Raffaele, tracker item [
2406420 ] compile lame_enc.dll under cygwin

1.19 - 2010.02.18

* MakeID3v1: Translate TYER into ID3v1 year if TDRC is not present. (#42)
* mid3v2:
* Allow --delete followed by --frame, and --genre 1 --genre 2. (#37)
* Add --quiet and --verbose flags. (#40)
* moggsplit: --m3u option to write an M3U playlist of the new files. (#39)
* mid3iconv: Fix crash when processing TCML or TIPL frames. (#41)
* VCommentDict: Correctly normalize key names for .keys() iterator. (#45)

1.18 - 2009.10.22
* ASF:
* Distinguish between empty and absent tag values in
ContentDescriptionObjects. (#29)
* mid3iconv:
* Fix a crash when processing empty (invalid) text frames.
* MAJOR API INCOMPATIBILITY!!!!
* EasyID3FileType is now in mutagen.easyid3, not mutagen.id3. This
change was necessary to restore API compatibility with 1.16, as
1.17 accidentally contained a circular import preventing
mutagen.easyid3 from importing by itself. (#32)
1.17 - 2009.10.07
* ID3:
* Support for the iTunes non-standard TSO2 and TSOC frames.
* Attempt to recover from bad SYLT frames. (#2)
* Attempt to recover from faulty extended header flags. (#4, #21)
* Fix a bug in ID3v2.4 footer flag detection, (#5)
* MP4:
* Don't fail or double-encode UTF-8 strings when given a str.
* Don't corrupt 64 bit atom sizes when resizing atoms. (#17)
* EasyID3:
* Extension API for defining new "easy" tags at runtime.
* Support for many, many more tags.
* OggVorbis, OggSpeex: Handle bitrates below 0 as per the spec. (#30)
* EasyMP4: Like EasyID3, but for iTunes MPEG-4 files.
* mutagen.File: New 'easy=True' argument to create new EasyMP3, EasyMP4,
EasyTrueAudio, and EasyID3FileType instances.
1.16 - 2009.06.15
* Website / code repository move.
* Bug Fixes:
* EasyID3: Invalid keys now raise KeyError (and ValueError).
* mutagen.File: .flac files with an ID3 tag will be opened as FLAC.
* MAJOR API INCOMPATIBILITY!!!!
* Python 2.6 has required us to rename the .format attribute of M4A/MP4
cover atoms, because it conflicts with the new str.format method.
It has been renamed .imageformat.
sfxr's original purpose was to provide a simple means of getting
basic sound effects into a game for those people who were working
hard to get their entries done for the Ludum Dare gaming contest
within the 48 hours and didn't have time to spend looking for
suitable ways of doing this.
The idea was that they could just hit a few buttons in this
application and get some largely randomized effects that were custom
in the sense that the user could accept/reject each proposed sound.
It's been a really long time since 2.2.0, previous cmus release - almost 3
years have passed. During this time, Timo Hirvonen, original cmus author, has
disappeared, cmus-unofficial fork was born, and, lately, cmus-unofficial
transformed back into cmus. Long story short - here is the new release!
Features highlight:
Gapless MP3 playback
Native PulseAudio output plugin
Faster metadata cache
Improved compilation handling
cmus-tutorial(7) man page
SHOUTcast icy-* headers support
Musepack SV8 support
Support for the new libmp4v2
And, of course, tons of bugs were fixed.
builtin wide curses which is recognized by pkgsrc/ncursesw/builtin.mk
is fine.
-Set the keyboard mode to raw() explicitely. ncurses seems to do
this in some magical way, didn't find a hint in documentation.
-Explicitely disable widechar support if the pkgsrc option is deselected -
otherwise it gets enabled unwantedly if widechar support is found in the
normal curses lib.

libifp is a general-purpose library-driver for iRiver's iFP
(flash-based) portable audio players.
This driver has been reported to work with models iFP1xx, 3xx, 5xx,
7xx, 8xx, 9xx and N10.
The Moodbar is an algorithm for creating a colorful visual
representation of the contents of an audio file, giving an idea of
its "mood" (this is a rather fanciful term for the simple analysis
it actually does). The Moodbar was invented by Gavin Wood and
Simon O'Keefe for inclusion in the Amarok music player.
This package contains a GStreamer plugin with elements that are
used in the moodbar analysis, and an application that actually does
the analysis.

- change API so you can call Audio::Wav->{read|write} w/o new() if preferred
- increase pure perl read speed by a factor of ~2.4
* remove unnecessary bounds check
* put block in closure, avoiding double hash lookup
* put $block assign in _init_read_sub, put read_sub in closure, too
* pull $handle into closure:
* get rid of closure, and get rid of read() - inline it with $read_sub
- use Inline::C (if available) to increase read speed by a factor of ~2.3
- experimental support for reading 24- and 32- bit data (suspected to
work on little endian machines that use Inline::C)
0.08 Sun Feb 09 06:29:43 GMT 2010
- fix regression: read() returned bogus samples when Inline::C not available
Pkgsrc fixes:
* correct LICENSE, not perl's, but exactly gplv2.
* set GNU_CONFIGURE=yes for affect pkgsrc magick to intenal copy of libid3tag.
* buildlink with zlib, internal libid3tag require it.
