    <div class=section>

      <p>The <tt>device</tt> configuration option and <tt>--device</tt> option

<h2>Changes up to version 4.3</h2>

  <div class=section>

    <h3>Disobedience</h3>

      <div class=section>

        <p>A bug was fixed in the calculation of how much of the track had
        played.  This would lead to the counter showing incorrect values in
        various situations.</p>

        <p>Disobedience's icons have been changed to larger, more colorful
        ones.  The SVG source is included if you want to fiddle with them.</p>

        <p>&ldquo;Select all&rdquo; is now no longer available in the choose
        tab.  Instead there is a new &ldquo;Select children&rdquo; option which
        selects the file children of a single subdirectory.</p>

      </div>

    <h3>Server</h3>

      <div class=section>

        <p>The selection bias for newly added tracks was reduced by half.  You
        can put it back to the old very neophilic value with
        &ldquo;<tt>new_bias 900000</tt>&rdquo; in the config file.</p>

        <p>It is now possible to &lsquo;adopt&rsquo; randomly picked tracks.
        Disobedience and the command-line client support this but the web
        interface does not.</p>

        <p>The default track name parsing was modified to handle filenames
        generated by iTunes.</p>
        
      </div>

    <h3>Miscellaneous</h3>

      <div class=section>

        <p><tt>disorderfm</tt> now preserves directory permissions.</p>

        <p>DisOrder is now licensed under <a
         href="http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.html">GPL v3</a>.  The main
        goal is to prohibit <a
         href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tivoization">Tivoization</a>.</p>

        <p>The build system will now automatically cope with Fink's broken GTK+
        packages.  There are a number of improvements to the Debian
        packaging.</p>

        <p>DisOrder now builds on 64-bit Linux systems.</p>

        <p>There are various minor fixes.</p>

      </div>

<h2>Changes up to version 4.2</h2>

<div class=section>

  <h3>Disobedience</h3>
  
    <div class=section>

      <p>The login window now has a 'remote' switch.  If this is turned off
      then Disobedience will connect to a local server.  Formerly it would
      always use TCP/IP.</p>

      <p>The Delete and backspace keys will now remove tracks from the queue.
      Escape will now dismiss the properties, users or login windows and return
      now works in the login and properties windows.</p>
      
    </div>

  <h3>Documentation</h3>
  
    <div class=section>

      <p>Track and global preferences are now described in a new
      <b>disorder_preferences</b>(5) man page.</p>
      
    </div>

  <h3>Bugs fixed</h3>

<h2>Changes up to version 4.1.1</h2>

<div class=section>

  <p>Disobedience's &ldquo;Login&rdquo; window now works when you are logged
  in.</p>
  
</div>

<h2>Changes up to version 4.1</h2>

<div class=section>

  <h3>Disobedience</h3>
  
    <div class=section>
  
      <p>Disobedience has been largely rewritten:</p>

      <ul>
        
        <li>All the tabs now use native GTK+ list/tree widgets, resulting in
        greater speed in some cases and more consistency with other GTK+
        applications.</li>

        <li>You can now use type-ahead find in the choose tab.  The initiation
        of a search is delayed slightly to avoid lots of updates when you're
        half way through entering search terms.</li>

        <li>The choose tab now shows track lengths.</li>
    
        <li>Many buttons are now more reliably made insensitive when they can't
        be used.</li>

        <li>You can now play tracks off the recent tab.</li>
        
      </ul>
      
      <p>Disobedience attempts to cope with servers from older versions, up to
      a point, but this is not well tested and it's best to keep the server
      fully up to date.</p>

    </div>
     
  <h3>Server</h3>
  
    <div class=section>

      <p>When a track shares a directory with its alias, the real track name is
      now returned instead of the alias (the opposite way round to the previous
      behaviour).</p>
      
    </div>
</div>

<h2>Changes up to version 4.0.2</h2>

<div class=section>

  <p>Corrected web browser linked from Disobedience.</p>
  
</div>

<h2>Changes up to version 4.0.1</h2>

<div class=section>

  <p>Libtool and Automake now install the CGI correctly.  As part of this,
  <tt>cgidir</tt> has been renamed to <tt>cgiexecdir</tt>.  The configure
  script will report an error if you try to use the old name.</p>
  
</div>

<h2>Changes up to version 4.0</h2>

<div class=section>

  <h3>Server</h3>

<div class=section>
  
  <p>The <tt>gap</tt> directive will no longer work.  It could be
  restored if there is real demand.</p>
  
  <h4>Event Scheduling</h4>

<div class=section>

  <p>It is now possible to schedule events to occur in the future.
  Currently the supported actions are playing a specific track, and
  changing a global preference (thus allowing e.g. random play to be
  turned on or off).  See the <tt>schedule-*</tt>
  commands described in disorder(1).</p>

</div>

<h4>Random Track Choice</h4>

<div class=section>

  <p>This has been completely rewritten to support new features:</p>

  <ul>

    <li>tracks in the recently-played list or in the queue are no longer
    eligible for random choice.</li>

    <li>there is a new <tt>weight</tt> track preference allowing for
    non-uniform track selection.  See disorder(1) for details.</li>

    <li>there is a new configuration item <tt>replay_min</tt> defining
    the minimum time before a played track can be picked at random.
    The default is 8 hours (which matches the earlier behaviour).</li>

    <li>recently added tracks are biased up; see <tt>new_bias</tt> and
    <tt>new_bias_age</tt> in disorder_config(5).</li>

  </ul>

</div>

<h4>Web Interface</h4>

<div class=section>

  <p>This has been largely rewritten.  The most immediate benefits are:</p>

  <ul>
    
    <li>the search page is integrated into the choose page, and
    includes links to parent directories.</li>
    
    <li>if you try to do something you have insufficient rights for,
    instead of getting an error page or nothing happening, you are
    redirected to the login page.</li>

  </ul>

  <p>Customizers should find their lives easier: the syntax is less onerous, it
  is possible to define macros to avoid repetition, and the documentation is
  less monolithic (see disorder.cgi(8) as a starting point).</p>

  <p>Mail is now sent via the system sendmail program, though it remains
  possible to use TCP to connect to an SMTP server.  See <tt>sendmail</tt> and
  <tt>smtp_server</tt> in disorder_config(5).</p>

  <p>The web interface is now installed automatically.  If you don't want it,
  use <tt>./configure --without-cgi</tt>.  If you want it in a non-default
  location, or no location for it is detected, set <tt>cgidir</tt>
  and <tt>httpdir</tt> on the <tt>./configure</tt> command line.</p>
  
</div>

</div>

<h3>Disobedience</h3>

<div class=section>

  <p>There is now a new user management window.  From here you can add and
  remove users or modify their settings.</p>

  <p>Relatedly, the server will only allow remote user management if you set
  <tt>remote_userman</tt> to <tt>yes</tt>.</p>

</div>

<h3>Miscellaneous</h3>

<div class=section>

  <p><tt>scripts/setup</tt> now honors command line options, and can
  set up network play as well as the local default sound device.</p>

</div>

</div>

</div>

<h2>Changes up to version 3.0.2</h2>

<div class=section>

  <p>Builds <tt>--without-server</tt> should work again.</p>

  <p>The web interface is a bit more liberal in the cookie value
  syntax it will accept.</p>

  <p>Clients fail more gracefully if no password is available.</p>

</div>

<h2>Changes up to version 3.0.1</h2>

<div class=section>
  
  <p>Debian upgrades from 2.0.x should now work better.</p>
  
</div>

<h2>Changes up to version 3.0</h2>

<div class=section>
  
  <p><b>Important</b>!  See <a
  href="README.upgrades">README.upgrades</a> when upgrading.</p>
  
  <h3>Platforms And Installation</h3>
  
<div class=section>
  
  <p>Mac OS X and FreeBSD are somewhat supported.  There is now a bash
  script in <tt>scripts/setup</tt> which will automate the setup after
  <tt>make install</tt>.</p>
  
</div>

<h3>Server</h3>

<div class=section>
  
  <p>Users are now stored in the database rather than a configuration
  file.</p>
  
  <p>The server now has a built-in list of stopwords and players, so
  only additions to these need be mentioned in the configuration file.</p>
  
  <p>The default inter-track gap is now 0s.</p>
  
  <p>How sound is played is now controlled via the new <tt>api</tt>
  configuration command.  This also controls how the volume is set,
  which now works with ALSA as well as OSS.</p>
  
  <p>A bug in the MP3 decoder was fixed (also in 2.0.4).</p>
  
</div>

<h3>Web Interface</h3>

<div class=section>
  
  <p>The web interface now uses cookies to remember user identity, and
  allows online registration of new users.  Also it is no longer
  necessary to manually specify the URL of the web interface (but you
  can override it if you don't like the value it figures out).</p>
  
  <p>It is possible to allow users to register via the web interface.</p>
  
  <p>The web interface's browser support has been improved.  It has
  been tested with Firefox 2, Safari 3, Konqueror 3, Internet Explorer
  7 and Opera 9.</p>
  
</div>

<h3>Disobedience</h3>

<div class=section>

  <p>A bug which would cause a crash if you attempt to rearrange the
  queue while no track was playing has been fixed.  There is a new
  'deselect all tracks' option, mirroring 'select all tracks.</p>
  
</div>

	240
	241	<div class=section>
	242
	243	<p>Disobedience has been largely rewritten:</p>
	244
	245	<ul>
	246
	247	<li>All the tabs now use native GTK+ list/tree widgets, resulting in
	248	greater speed in some cases and more consistency with other GTK+
	249	applications.</li>
	250
	251	<li>You can now use type-ahead find in the choose tab. The initiation
	252	of a search is delayed slightly to avoid lots of updates when you're
	253	half way through entering search terms.</li>
	254
	255	<li>The choose tab now shows track lengths.</li>
	256
	257	<li>Many buttons are now more reliably made insensitive when they can't
	258	be used.</li>
30f2f8c9 RK	259
	260	<li>You can now play tracks off the recent tab.</li>
	261
452ad6ba RK	262	</ul>
	263
	264	<p>Disobedience attempts to cope with servers from older versions, up to
	265	a point, but this is not well tested and it's best to keep the server
	266	fully up to date.</p>

	271
	272	<div class=section>
	273
	274	<p>When a track shares a directory with its alias, the real track name is

	303	<h3>Server</h3>
	304
	305	<div class=section>
	306
	307	<p>The <tt>gap</tt> directive will no longer work. It could be
	308	restored if there is real demand.</p>
	309
	310	<h4>Event Scheduling</h4>
	311
	312	<div class=section>
	313
	314	<p>It is now possible to schedule events to occur in the future.
	315	Currently the supported actions are playing a specific track, and
	316	changing a global preference (thus allowing e.g. random play to be
	317	turned on or off). See the <tt>schedule-*</tt>
	318	commands described in disorder(1).</p>
	319
	320	</div>
	321
	322	<h4>Random Track Choice</h4>
	323
	324	<div class=section>
	325
	326	<p>This has been completely rewritten to support new features:</p>
	327
	328	<ul>
	329
	330	<li>tracks in the recently-played list or in the queue are no longer
	331	eligible for random choice.</li>
	332
	333	<li>there is a new <tt>weight</tt> track preference allowing for
	334	non-uniform track selection. See disorder(1) for details.</li>
	335
	336	<li>there is a new configuration item <tt>replay_min</tt> defining
	337	the minimum time before a played track can be picked at random.
	338	The default is 8 hours (which matches the earlier behaviour).</li>
	339
	340	<li>recently added tracks are biased up; see <tt>new_bias</tt> and
	341	<tt>new_bias_age</tt> in disorder_config(5).</li>
	342
	343	</ul>
	344
	345	</div>
	346
	347	<h4>Web Interface</h4>
	348
	349	<div class=section>
	350
	351	<p>This has been largely rewritten. The most immediate benefits are:</p>
	352
	353	<ul>
	354
	355	<li>the search page is integrated into the choose page, and
	356	includes links to parent directories.</li>
	357
	358	<li>if you try to do something you have insufficient rights for,
	359	instead of getting an error page or nothing happening, you are
	360	redirected to the login page.</li>
	361
	362	</ul>
	363
364	<p>Customizers should find their lives easier: the syntax is less onerous, it
365	is possible to define macros to avoid repetition, and the documentation is
366	less monolithic (see disorder.cgi(8) as a starting point).</p>
367
2eee4b0c RK	368	<p>Mail is now sent via the system sendmail program, though it remains
	369	possible to use TCP to connect to an SMTP server. See <tt>sendmail</tt> and
	370	<tt>smtp_server</tt> in disorder_config(5).</p>
4cbafe13	371
64ac73bb RK	372	<p>The web interface is now installed automatically. If you don't want it,
	373	use <tt>./configure --without-cgi</tt>. If you want it in a non-default
	374	location, or no location for it is detected, set <tt>cgidir</tt>
	375	and <tt>httpdir</tt> on the <tt>./configure</tt> command line.</p>

	384
	385	<p>There is now a new user management window. From here you can add and
	386	remove users or modify their settings.</p>
	387
	388	<p>Relatedly, the server will only allow remote user management if you set
	389	<tt>remote_userman</tt> to <tt>yes</tt>.</p>

485
486	<p>Mac OS X and FreeBSD are somewhat supported. There is now a bash

493
494	<div class=section>
495
496	<p>Users are now stored in the database rather than a configuration
497	file.</p>
498
499	<p>The server now has a built-in list of stopwords and players, so
500	only additions to these need be mentioned in the configuration file.</p>
501
502	<p>The default inter-track gap is now 0s.</p>
503
504	<p>How sound is played is now controlled via the new <tt>api</tt>
505	configuration command. This also controls how the volume is set,
506	which now works with ALSA as well as OSS.</p>
507
508	<p>A bug in the MP3 decoder was fixed (also in 2.0.4).</p>

511
512	<h3>Web Interface</h3>
513
514	<div class=section>
515
516	<p>The web interface now uses cookies to remember user identity, and
517	allows online registration of new users. Also it is no longer
518	necessary to manually specify the URL of the web interface (but you
519	can override it if you don't like the value it figures out).</p>
520
521	<p>It is possible to allow users to register via the web interface.</p>
522
523	<p>The web interface's browser support has been improved. It has
524	been tested with Firefox 2, Safari 3, Konqueror 3, Internet Explorer
525	7 and Opera 9.</p>
526
527	</div>
528
529	<h3>Disobedience</h3>
530
531	<div class=section>
532
533	<p>A bug which would cause a crash if you attempt to rearrange the
534	queue while no track was playing has been fixed. There is a new
535	'deselect all tracks' option, mirroring 'select all tracks.</p>
