small encoding speedups in fast (non-LPC) mode, streaming support
in the XMMS plugin, and several bug fixes. For developers there
are also a few additions and changes to the metadata API to make
working with tags easier. See the changelog entry for complete
details. This release actually wasn't supposed to happen so soon,
but needed to be made to fix library naming and build problems in
FLAC 1.1.1 that caused trouble for package maintainers, so unless
you are having trouble with one of the particular bugs that got
fixed in 1.1.2 then there is not much of a need to upgrade.

Changes between 1.3 and 1.3.1 are:

corruped tags caused crashes or out of memory errors
Clear the ID3v1 track number when attempting to set it to a value greater
than 255 (8-bit value)
Fixed crash in invalid APE tags where the number of tag items didn't match
up with the number actually present
Added other additional sanity checks to the APE parsing code that should
make it more robust
Fixed Makefile problem that caused the apeitem.h header to not be

distmp3 is a client and a daemon (both written in perl) for distributed
mp3-encoding across multiple hosts on a network.
distmp3 can be used standalone or by a front-end CD ripper such as
audio/abcde.
files in the lame source.
And for the audio/lame/Makefile:
Change the LICENSE from fee-based-commercial-use to use this new
lame-license.
The problem before was that fee-based-commercial-use did not exist
and the "make show-license" suggested running pkg_info -d to view
the long-description of the package (which may not be installed yet).
Anyways, the DESCR didn't mention these license issues.
Also bump PKGREVISION.
Notable changes include:
- Improvements in the aRts audio backend.
- Use taglib instead of id3lib to extract ID3 information.
Support for aRts is controlled by a PKG_OPTION and is off by default to
avoid pulling in a huge wad of dependencies.
python*-pth packages into meta-packages which will install the non-pth
packages. Bump PKGREVISIONs on the non-pth versions to propagate the
thread change, but leave the *-pth versions untouched to not affect
existing installations.
Sync all PYTHON_VERSIONS_AFFECTED lines in package Makefiles.
AmaroK is a media player for KDE. There are many media players
around these days, true. What's missing from most players is a user
interface, that doesn't get in the way of the user. How many buttons
do you have to press for simply adding some new tracks to the
playlist? amaroK tries to be a little different, providing a simple
drag and drop interface, that really makes playlist handling easy.
XXX Too much dependencies are thrown in there: create "plugins" packages
or use PKG_OPTIONS framework?
terminatorX is a realtime audio synthesizer that allows you to "scratch"
on digitally sampled audio data (*.wav, *.au, *.ogg, *.mp3, etc.) the way
hiphop-DJs scratch on vinyl records. It features multiple turntables,
realtime effects (buit-in as well as LADSPA plugin effects), a sequencer
and MIDI interface - all accessible through an easy-to-use gtk+ GUI.
Many audio synthesis and recording packages are in use or in
development. These work in many different ways. LADSPA
provides a standard way for `plugin' audio processors to be used with
a wide range of these packages.
For instance, this allows a developer to make a reverb program and
bundle it into a LADSPA `plugin library.' Ordinary users can then use
this reverb within any LADSPA-friendly audio application.
- Fixed a major bug in id3.c that affected linux users with a file not
found error. Also fixed in main.c. Thanks to Sarah Hitchens for
finding/fixing the bug!
- Cleaned up memory leaks in playlist.c and downloadable.c.
- Fixed typo in filename for song_management.c.
* Remove unnecessary patches to strip /usr/local from -L and -I paths.
* Makefile style nits.
* Specify dependency on howl's mDNSResponder in the rc.d script.
Ride the version and PKGREVISION from mjl's commit an hour ago.
Being here, fix a possible problem which was mentioned in conjunction
with CAN-2003-0577 - zero bitrate makes mpg123 assume a negative
frame size.
bump PKGREVISION
* Added support for using the system version of libmikmod
* Added SDL_RWops support for reading Ogg Vorbis files
* Added 4 and 6 channel surround sound output support
