changelog:
LAME 3.89alpha July 5 2001
John Stewart: long filename support for Win9x/NT.
Takehiro Tominaga: LAME can calculate the CRC of VBR header, so now
"lame -pv" works fine.
Robert Hegemann: Improvements of the new VBR code.
Robert Hegemann: New VBR code is now defaulted. The VBR speed is now on par
with CBR. We will use the old VBR code in the release.
Gabriel Bouvigne: Change of the maximum frame size limit. LAME should now
be more friendly with hardware players.
Gabriel Bouvigne: Size of VBR is now more balanced according to
the -V value.
Alexander Leidinger: Finished the implementation of the set/get functions.
John Dahlstrom: LAME now handles 24bits input
Mark Taylor: bugs in lame --decode causing truncation of mp3 file fixed
Mark Taylor: preliminary --nogap support
"Final" API completed: shared library safe! This API is frozen and should
be backwords compatiable with future versions of libmp3lame.so, but we
will continue to add new functionality.
LAME 3.88beta March 25 2001
A lot of work that was never added to the History!
Frank Klemm and Gabriel Bouvigne: New ATH formula. Big improvement for
high bitrate encodings.
Takehiro Tominaga: Temporal masking
Gabriel Bouvigne/Mark Taylor: auto adjustment of ATH
Robert Hegemann: Better outer_loop stopping criterion. Enabled
with -q2 or better.
Robert Hegemann/Naoki Shibata: slow/carefull noise shaping.
-q3..9: amplify all distorted bands.
-q2: amplify distorted bands within 50%.
-q1-0: amplify only most distorted band at each iteration.
Takehiro Tominaga: Interframe, shortblock temporal masking.
Takehiro Tominaga: LAME restructured into a shared library and front end
application. Slight changes to the API. More changes are coming to
turn LAME into a true shared library (right now you have to recompile
if you upgrade the library :-(
Naoki Shibata:
improvements to psychoacoustics (--nspsytune)
BUG in long block pre echo control fixed (some out of range array
access in M/S psychoacoustics)
Ralf Kempkens: Visual Basic Script for lame, suggested to put it on your
Windows Desktop and you can drag'n'drop Waves to encode on it.
Alexander Stumpf: improved lame.bat for 4Dos users
Mark Taylor: Several bugs fixed in the resampling code.
Frank Klemm, Robert Hegemann: added assembler code for CPU feature
detection on runtime (MMX, 3DNow, SIMD)
Takehiro Tominaga: 3DNow FFT code.
Florian Bome, Alexander Leidinger: more work on configure stuff
Alexander Leidinger: automake/libtool generated Makefiles and TONS of
other work.
Alexander Leidinger: Much work towards shared library style API.
Anonymous: New more efficient RTP code.
Mark Taylor: psycho-acoustic data now computed for all scalefactor bands
(up to 24khz)
Mark Taylor, Takehiro Tominaga: All ISO table data replaced by formulas -
should improve MPEG2.5 results for which we never had correct
table data.
This release has the -n option back again
due to popular demand. A new option (-S) has been added to create a
default CDDB server configuration. Couple of bugs in front-bottom
text fixed. Minor change in size of sideflaps.
Ver 3.0 patchlevel 1 released Sat Jul 14 19:58:39 PDT 2001
----------------------------------------------------------
CD-ROM drive support changes:
- Added a new "scsiVersionCheck" parameter to the device.cfg file.
This is to make the CD-ROM drive SCSI-2 version checking in xmcd
and cda configurable.
OS Support changes:
- Re-introduced support for the OpenVMS operating system on Alpha AXP
and VAX platforms.
- Added code to support for IDE/ATAPI drives on the OpenVMS platform.
Since OpenVMS supports these drives via SCSI-emulation, xmcd should
be configured for a SCSI device.
Other changes:
- Replaced the "CDDB disable" button in xmcd with the "Internet Offline"
button. The new "offline" mode differs from the old "disable" mode
in that CDDB lookups will still occur from the local cache (no Internet
CDDB server will be accessed). Also, xmcd's wwwWarp menu entries
which would invoke a remote web site will be disabled. This should
be used when the system is not connected to the Internet (e.g., on
a dialup connection while not online). Similarly, the -cddb and
-nocddb command line options in cda have been changed to -online and
-offline with the same change in semantics. The disableCddb parameter
in common.cfg has also been changed to internetOffline.
- Fixed a bug that was causing submissions to the CDDB² service to
fail even though the data is acceptable and the network/servers are
running fine.
- Fixed an xmcd problem where the keypad time display and track warp
slider would freeze when the playback mode is not in segment play
mode but the main window time display is set to "e-seg" or "r-seg".
- Fixed a problem with using the xmcd keypad to go to another track or
disc while playing program or shuffle modes.
- Removed some conditions that could cause SIGALRMs to be received
while xmcd is handling X events. Also, fixed certain situations
where spawned child processes were handling X events instead of the
parent. This was causing sporadic X errors and xmcd crashes.
- Fixed a bug that caused classic CDDB lookup to fail if HTTP proxy
authorization is enabled.
- Changed xmcd to keep the Credit Fullname Wizard window open if a user
clicks the Credit 'Add', 'Modify' or 'Delete' buttons, or
select/de-select credit list items. Also, enhance the data fields
verification for the full name wizard window.
- Enhanced xmcd and cda to handle erroneous CDDB data more gracefully,
where a subgenre is set to the value that of a genre, or where a
subrole is set to the value of a role category.
- Fixed a missing single quote in libdi_d/config.sh that was causing
the script to fail while configuring proxy servers. Also, fixed
a problem with reading the device configuration files where the
wrong device parameters would get used.
- The install.sh and config.sh scripts will now use nawk if it's
available on the system. Otherwise it falls back to using awk.
libraries and using the config wrappers. Simplify the buildlink.mk
inclusion by just including windowmaker/buildlink.mk instead of all the
graphics libraries' buildlink.mk, and including wsoundserver/buildlink.mk
instead of including libaudiofile/buildlink.mk directly.
* Remove explicit references to /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib
added by the configure script.
* Note that wslib/get-wsound-flags needs to have references to
${BUILDLINK_DIR} removed before installation by listing it in
REPLACE_BUILDLINK.
* Remove patches that add -Wl,-R${X11BASE}/lib to the link flags of
various libraries and programs. This already should be passed in via
LDFLAGS, and if additional flags are needed on Solaris, then we should
just set the additional LDFLAGS in the package Makefile.
BUILDLINK_PREFIX.<pkgname>. This allows buildlink to find X11BASE packages
regardless of whether they were installed before or after xpkgwedge was
installed. Idea by Alistair Crooks <agc@pkgsrc.org>.
(including fixing lots of PLISTs).
Changes since 1.4.0, from the NEWS file:
. SSFF (for emulabel) track support
. Java fixes
. various minor bug fixes
. WFST with proper quoting
. Wagon sample counts
. gcc-2.95.1 support
Also use newer distfile for mbrola.
Addresses pkg/10671.
so remove it from package Makefiles. Also move the inclusion of the
buildlink.mk files to the end of the Makefile to just before bsd.pkg.mk
to ensure that any Makefile settings occur before the buildlink.mk files.
FOO_REQD=1.0 being converted to foo>=1.0, one can now directly specify
the dependency pattern as FOO_DEPENDS=foo>=1.0. This allows things like
JPEG_DEPENDS=jpeg-6b, or fancier expressions like for postgresql-lib.
Change existing FOO_REQD definitions in Makefiles to FOO_DEPENDS.
* Fixed the pre-mixing effect plugin handling.
* Added more verbose error messages when one of 'xmms-config',
GLIB or GTK can not be found.
* Fixed a bug which could cause very ugly feedback when using the
silence-after-fadeout crossfader feature. This does only happen
when you have activated an effect plugin in XMMS.
* Fixed a small configure script error.
Translation/Internationalization:
* New translations (gl, pt, id, sr)
* Translations work in libxmms.
* Handles broken translations better.
Plugins:
* Joystick plugin suppports more than 4 buttons.
* Vorbis plugin handles streams.
* Vorbis plugin generate data in native endianness.
* File info dialog for Vorbis plugin.
* Alot of bugfixes to the Vorbis plugin.
* Tonegen input plugin supports more frequencys at the same time.
* Solaris output plugin added.
* Additional fixes to the Solaris plugin after it moved to the XMMS source.
* IR plugin can now configure IR code length.
* OSS Output can now configure the mixer device manually.
* Handle no effect plugins without crash.
* Esd plugin makes use of ESPEAKER variable.
* ID3v1.1 support, ID3v1.0 still saves the entire comment.
Portability:
* CDAudio ported to OpenBSD.
* Fixed glitches in FreeBSD audio playback.
* Compilation fixes for Tru64 Unix, FreeBSD, OpenBSD.
Playlist:
* Physically delete file from playlist.
* Right-click menu in the playlist.
* Playlist counter wraps at ~136 years instead of ~600 hours.
* Pressing middle mouse button in the playlist will try to add the
content of the clipboard. Double click will clear the playlist.
Misc:
* MiniIcon now shows up in KDE2 taskbar.
* Gnomexmms shows the title in the tooltip.
* DGA support has been dropped.
* Fullscreen code should be more sane now.
* Man pages. (xmms, gnomexmms, wmxmms)
Core:
* Set realtime mode and drop root privilieges before initalizing GTK.
(XMMS would not work with GTK 1.2.10)
* Better shuffleplay support.
* Possible to show WM decorations.
* Fixed segfaults in the controlsocket.
* Generic titles instead of Input plugin specific
(mpg123, vorbis, cdaudio).
* %F - File path, for titlestrings.
* Smaller fixes, memory leaks and stability issues.
fetchable rp8_linux20_libc6_i386_cs2.bin from real.com's website. The
".0.1" addition to the package name instead of "nb1" is to show that this
is a minor update to the package from the authors.
- Use PKGLOCALEDIR instead of assuming locale files are in
${PREFIX}/share/locale.
- Use BSD_INSTALL_* macros instead of mkdir/cp.
- Use devel/gettext-lib/buildlink.mk instead of USE_LIBINTL.
CXXFLAGS, and LDFLAGS by the buildlink.mk files so remove the extra
definitions to add them from the package Makefiles. As advised by the
bsd.buildlink.mk file, also ensure that the buildlink.mk files are
included prior to defining any package-specific CFLAGS/LDFLAGS to ensure
that the buildlink directories are at the head of the compiler search
paths.
Use BUILDLINK_INCDIR, BUILDLINK_LIBDIR for locations of linked headers
and libraries. Create a variable BUILDLINK_TARGETS whose value is the
list of build-link targets to execute.
Notable changes include:
- localisation support
- additional plugins, most notably the ability to play ogg-vorbis
files
- tons of bugfixes
- better sound buffer availability estimates for NetBSD (this
hopefully reduces jitter a bit on slower systems).
0.94.2 - 20010508
o Bugfix: The very uncommon crash on certain WAV files has now been fixed again has been
verified to work properly (Andre).
o Modified FFT calculations. Produces the same output and should be slightly faster. However it
seems to produce a slight speed decrease (about 1%) on Tord's computer so any comparisons
would be appreciated (Andre).
0.94.1 - 20010424
o Bugfix: The very uncommon crash on certain WAV files should now be fixed (Andre).
o Bugfix: Source should now compile nicely on Solaris and any other UNIX that had problems with
0.94.0 (Tord).
o Bugfix: Fixed a cosmetic error that caused "Press ENTER to exit..." being displayed even on
systems where we don't wait for a keypress.
Shorten is a lossless compressing tool specialized for Audio files where
it usually performs better than gzip/bzip2.
Package submitted by Ben Collver <collver@linuxfreemail.com>
in pkg/12586
Major changes include:
- The last complete audio frame should now be properly decoded even when
it is not followed by other data
- Ancillary data is now properly extracted from Layer III streams.
- Rewrote the Layer III joint stereo decoding routine to correct a major
MPEG-2 problem and a minor MPEG-1 problem decoding intensity stereo.
Other changes in the CHANGES file in the distribution.
o esd supports for multiple recording clients
- multiple esd_record_stream or esd_record_stream_fallback can
now run simultaneously
o security improvements
- you should upgrade to 0.2.21 - older version have security
holes, which can compromite account of any esd user
