| | 10 | |
| | 11 | <p>This file documents recent user-visible changes to <a |
| | 12 | href="http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/disorder/">DisOrder</a>.</p> |
| | 13 | |
| | 14 | <p><b>IMPORTANT</b>: you should read <a |
| | 15 | href="README.upgrades.html">README.upgrades</a> before upgrading.</p> |
| | 16 | |
| | 17 | <h2>Changes up to version 5.1</h2> |

| | 21 | <h3>Removable Device Support</h3> |
| | 22 | |
| | 23 | <div class=section> |
| | 24 | |
| | 25 | <p>The server will now automatically initiate a rescan when a filesystem is |
| | 26 | mounted or unmounted. (Use the <tt>mount_rescan</tt> option if you want to |
| | 27 | suppress this behavior.)</p> |
| | 28 | |
| | 29 | <p>The server takes care not to hold audio files open unnecessarily, so |
| | 30 | that devices can be unmounted even if tracks from them are currently being |
| | 31 | buffered.</p> |
| | 32 | |
| | 33 | </div> |
| | 34 | |
| | 35 | <h3>Backups</h3> |
| | 36 | |
| | 37 | <div class=section> |
| | 38 | |
| | 39 | <p>The Debian package now includes a cronjob that backs up the database |
| | 40 | daily. See <tt>/etc/cron.d/disorder</tt>. You can put settings |
| | 41 | in <tt>/etc/default/disorder</tt> to turn this off or to control how long |
| | 42 | the backups are kept for.</p> |
| | 43 | |
| | 44 | <p>The <tt>disorder-dump -r</tt> option was broken.</p> |
| | 45 | |
| | 46 | <p><tt>disorder-dump</tt> now gets permissions right automatically (a |
| | 47 | href="http://code.google.com/p/disorder/issues/detail?id=56">issue |
| | 48 | #56</a>).</p> |
| | 49 | |
| | 50 | <h3>General</h3> |
| | 51 | |
| | 52 | <div class=section> |
| | 53 | |
| | 54 | <p>Unicode support has been upgraded to <a |
| | 55 | href="http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode6.0.0/">Unicode |
| | 56 | 6.0.0</a>.</p> |
| | 57 | |
| | 58 | <p>Various minor bug fixes.</p> |
| | 59 | |

| | 63 | |
| | 64 | <h2>Changes up to version 5.0.2</h2> |
| | 65 | |
| | 66 | <div class=section> |
| | 67 | |
| | 68 | <p>The login form now indicates that a cookie will be set.</p> |
| | 69 | |
| | 70 | </div> |
| | 71 | |
| | 72 | <h2>Changes up to version 5.0.1</h2> |
| | 73 | |
| | 74 | <div class=section> |
| | 75 | |
| | 76 | <h3>Disobedience</h3> |
| | 77 | |
| | 78 | <div class=section> |
| | 79 | |
| | 80 | <p>The sense of the Control → Playing menu item was fixed.</p> |
| | 81 | |
| | 82 | </div> |
| | 83 | |
| | 84 | </div> |
| | 85 | |
| | 86 | <h2>Changes up to version 5.0</h2> |
| | 87 | |
| | 88 | <div class=section> |
| | 89 | |
| | 90 | <h3>Server</h3> |
| | 91 | |
| | 92 | <div class=section> |
| | 93 | |
| | 94 | <p>The <tt>device</tt> configuration option now works under OS X. |
| | 95 | Devices may |
| | 96 | be specified either by UID or name. Fixes <a |
| | 97 | href="http://code.google.com/p/disorder/issues/detail?id=27">Issue |
| | 98 | 27</a>.</p> |
| | 99 | |
| | 100 | <p>Gapless play should be more reliable, and playback latency over RTP |
| | 101 | should be a bit lower. Note though that all the sound output code has |
| | 102 | been reorganized and in some cases completely rewritten, so it's possible |
| | 103 | that bugs may have been (re-)introduced. Decoding of scratches is also |
| | 104 | initiated ahead of time, giving more reliable playback.</p> |
| | 105 | |
| | 106 | <p>The <tt>command</tt> backend now (optionally) sends silence instead |
| | 107 | of suspending writes when a pause occurs or no track is playing.</p> |
| | 108 | |
| | 109 | <p>If <a href="http://www.mega-nerd.com/SRC/">libsamplerate</a> is |
| | 110 | available at build time then that will be used instead of invoking |
| | 111 | <a href="http://sox.sourceforge.net/">SoX</a>. SoX support will be |
| | 112 | removed in a future version.</p> |
| | 113 | |
| | 114 | <p>The libao plugin has been removed, because the plugin API is not |
| | 115 | usable in libao 1.0.0.</p> |
| | 116 | |
| | 117 | <p>Playlists are now supported. These allow a collection of tracks to be |
| | 118 | prepared offline and played as a unit.</p> |
| | 119 | |
| | 120 | </div> |
| | 121 | |
| | 122 | <h3>Disobedience</h3> |
| | 123 | |
| | 124 | <div class=section> |
| | 125 | |
| | 126 | <p>Multiple tracks can now be dragged in the queue in a single operation. |
| | 127 | Furthermore, it is now possible to drag tracks from the |
| | 128 | “Recent”, “Added” and “Choose” tabs |
| | 129 | to the queue.</p> |
| | 130 | |
| | 131 | <p>Disobedience now supports playlist editing and has a compact mode, |
| | 132 | available from the <b>Control</b> menu.</p> |
| | 133 | |
| | 134 | <p>Disobedience has a <a href="disobedience/manual/index.html">new |
| | 135 | manual</a>.</p> |
| | 136 | |
| | 137 | </div> |
| | 138 | |
| | 139 | <h3>Web Interface</h3> |
| | 140 | |
| | 141 | <div class=section> |
| | 142 | |
| | 143 | <p>Confirmation URLs should be cleaner (and in particular not end |
| | 144 | with punctuation). (Please see <a |
| | 145 | href="README.upgrades.html">README.upgrades</a> for more about this.)</p> |
| | 146 | |
| | 147 | </div> |
| | 148 | |
| | 149 | <h3>RTP Player</h3> |
| | 150 | |
| | 151 | <div class=section> |
| | 152 | |
| | 153 | <p>There is a new <tt>--command</tt> option which allows the RTP player |
| | 154 | to send audio data to a user-chosen command instead of an audio API. See |
| | 155 | the man page for details.</p> |
| | 156 | |
| | 157 | <p>The <tt>--device</tt> option to <tt>disorder-playrtp</tt> now works |
| | 158 | under OS X (as above).</p> |
| | 159 | |
| | 160 | </div> |
| | 161 | |
| | 162 | <h3>General</h3> |
| | 163 | |
| | 164 | <div class=section> |
| | 165 | |
| | 166 | <p>IPv6 should now work. Network address specifications |
| | 167 | (<tt>listen</tt>, <tt>connect</tt> etc) can now be prefixed with |
| | 168 | <tt>-4</tt> or <tt>-6</tt> to force use |
| | 169 | of IPv4 or IPv6, though normally this should not be needed.</p> |
| | 170 | |
| | 171 | <p>Unicode support has been upgraded to <a |
| | 172 | href="http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode5.1.0/">Unicode |
| | 173 | 5.1.0</a>.</p> |
| | 174 | |
| | 175 | <p>Various elements of the source code have been |
| | 176 | rationalized.</p> |
| | 177 | |

| | 289 | |
| | 290 | <h3>Disobedience</h3> |
| | 291 | |
| | 292 | <div class=section> |
| | 293 | |
| | 294 | <p>A bug was fixed in the calculation of how much of the track had |
| | 295 | played. This would lead to the counter showing incorrect values in |
| | 296 | various situations.</p> |
| | 297 | |
| | 298 | <p>Disobedience's icons have been changed to larger, more colorful |
| | 299 | ones. The SVG source is included if you want to fiddle with them.</p> |
| | 300 | |
| | 301 | <p>“Select all” is now no longer available in the choose |
| | 302 | tab. Instead there is a new “Select children” option which |
| | 303 | selects the file children of a single subdirectory.</p> |
| | 304 | |
| | 305 | </div> |
| | 306 | |
| | 307 | <h3>Server</h3> |
| | 308 | |
| | 309 | <div class=section> |
| | 310 | |
| | 311 | <p>The selection bias for newly added tracks was reduced by half. You |
| | 312 | can put it back to the old very neophilic value with |
| | 313 | “<tt>new_bias 900000</tt>” in the config file.</p> |
| | 314 | |
| | 315 | <p>It is now possible to ‘adopt’ randomly picked tracks. |
| | 316 | Disobedience and the command-line client support this but the web |
| | 317 | interface does not.</p> |
| | 318 | |
| | 319 | <p>The default track name parsing was modified to handle filenames |
| | 320 | generated by iTunes.</p> |
| | 321 | |
| | 322 | </div> |
| | 323 | |
| | 324 | <h3>Miscellaneous</h3> |
| | 325 | |
| | 326 | <div class=section> |
| | 327 | |
| | 328 | <p><tt>disorderfm</tt> now preserves directory permissions.</p> |
| | 329 | |
| | 330 | <p>DisOrder is now licensed under <a |
| | 331 | href="http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.html">GPL v3</a>. The main |
| | 332 | goal is to prohibit <a |
| | 333 | href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tivoization">Tivoization</a>.</p> |
| | 334 | |
| | 335 | <p>The build system will now automatically cope with Fink's broken GTK+ |
| | 336 | packages. There are a number of improvements to the Debian |
| | 337 | packaging.</p> |
| | 338 | |
| | 339 | <p>DisOrder now builds on 64-bit Linux systems.</p> |
| | 340 | |
| | 341 | <p>There are various minor fixes.</p> |

| | 429 | |
| | 430 | <div class=section> |
| | 431 | |
| | 432 | <p>Disobedience has been largely rewritten:</p> |
| | 433 | |
| | 434 | <ul> |
| | 435 | |
| | 436 | <li>All the tabs now use native GTK+ list/tree widgets, resulting in |
| | 437 | greater speed in some cases and more consistency with other GTK+ |
| | 438 | applications.</li> |
| | 439 | |
| | 440 | <li>You can now use type-ahead find in the choose tab. The initiation |
| | 441 | of a search is delayed slightly to avoid lots of updates when you're |
| | 442 | half way through entering search terms.</li> |
| | 443 | |
| | 444 | <li>The choose tab now shows track lengths.</li> |
| | 445 | |
| | 446 | <li>Many buttons are now more reliably made insensitive when they can't |
| | 447 | be used.</li> |
| | 448 | |
| | 449 | <li>You can now play tracks off the recent tab.</li> |
| | 450 | |
| | 451 | </ul> |
| | 452 | |
| | 453 | <p>Disobedience attempts to cope with servers from older versions, up to |
| | 454 | a point, but this is not well tested and it's best to keep the server |
| | 455 | fully up to date.</p> |

| | 491 | |
| | 492 | <h3>Server</h3> |
| | 493 | |
| | 494 | <div class=section> |
| | 495 | |
| | 496 | <p>The <tt>gap</tt> directive will no longer work. It could be |
| | 497 | restored if there is real demand.</p> |
| | 498 | |
| | 499 | <h4>Event Scheduling</h4> |
| | 500 | |
| | 501 | <div class=section> |
| | 502 | |
| | 503 | <p>It is now possible to schedule events to occur in the future. |
| | 504 | Currently the supported actions are playing a specific track, and |
| | 505 | changing a global preference (thus allowing e.g. random play to be |
| | 506 | turned on or off). See the <tt>schedule-*</tt> |
| | 507 | commands described in disorder(1).</p> |
| | 508 | |
| | 509 | </div> |
| | 510 | |
| | 511 | <h4>Random Track Choice</h4> |
| | 512 | |
| | 513 | <div class=section> |
| | 514 | |
| | 515 | <p>This has been completely rewritten to support new features:</p> |
| | 516 | |
| | 517 | <ul> |
| | 518 | |
| | 519 | <li>tracks in the recently-played list or in the queue are no longer |
| | 520 | eligible for random choice.</li> |
| | 521 | |
| | 522 | <li>there is a new <tt>weight</tt> track preference allowing for |
| | 523 | non-uniform track selection. See disorder(1) for details.</li> |
| | 524 | |
| | 525 | <li>there is a new configuration item <tt>replay_min</tt> defining |
| | 526 | the minimum time before a played track can be picked at random. |
| | 527 | The default is 8 hours (which matches the earlier behaviour).</li> |
| | 528 | |
| | 529 | <li>recently added tracks are biased up; see <tt>new_bias</tt> and |
| | 530 | <tt>new_bias_age</tt> in disorder_config(5).</li> |
| | 531 | |
| | 532 | </ul> |
| | 533 | |
| | 534 | </div> |
| | 535 | |
| | 536 | <h4>Web Interface</h4> |
| | 537 | |
| | 538 | <div class=section> |
| | 539 | |
| | 540 | <p>This has been largely rewritten. The most immediate benefits are:</p> |
| | 541 | |
| | 542 | <ul> |
| | 543 | |
| | 544 | <li>the search page is integrated into the choose page, and |
| | 545 | includes links to parent directories.</li> |
| | 546 | |
| | 547 | <li>if you try to do something you have insufficient rights for, |
| | 548 | instead of getting an error page or nothing happening, you are |
| | 549 | redirected to the login page.</li> |
| | 550 | |
| | 551 | </ul> |
| | 552 | |
| | 553 | <p>Customizers should find their lives easier: the syntax is less onerous, it |
| | 554 | is possible to define macros to avoid repetition, and the documentation is |
| | 555 | less monolithic (see disorder.cgi(8) as a starting point).</p> |
| | 556 | |
| | 557 | <p>Mail is now sent via the system sendmail program, though it remains |
| | 558 | possible to use TCP to connect to an SMTP server. See <tt>sendmail</tt> and |
| | 559 | <tt>smtp_server</tt> in disorder_config(5).</p> |
| | 560 | |
| | 561 | <p>The web interface is now installed automatically. If you don't want it, |
| | 562 | use <tt>./configure --without-cgi</tt>. If you want it in a non-default |
| | 563 | location, or no location for it is detected, set <tt>cgidir</tt> |
| | 564 | and <tt>httpdir</tt> on the <tt>./configure</tt> command line.</p> |
| | 565 | |

| | 570 | <h3>Disobedience</h3> |
| | 571 | |
| | 572 | <div class=section> |
| | 573 | |
| | 574 | <p>There is now a new user management window. From here you can add and |
| | 575 | remove users or modify their settings.</p> |
| | 576 | |
| | 577 | <p>Relatedly, the server will only allow remote user management if you set |
| | 578 | <tt>remote_userman</tt> to <tt>yes</tt>.</p> |
| | 579 | |
| | 580 | </div> |
| | 581 | |
| | 582 | <h3>Miscellaneous</h3> |
| | 583 | |
| | 584 | <div class=section> |
| | 585 | |
| | 586 | <p><tt>scripts/setup</tt> now honors command line options, and can |
| | 587 | set up network play as well as the local default sound device.</p> |
| | 588 | |

| | 644 | |
| | 645 | <div class=section> |
| | 646 | |
| | 647 | <p>Builds <tt>--without-server</tt> should work again.</p> |
| | 648 | |
| | 649 | <p>The web interface is a bit more liberal in the cookie value |
| | 650 | syntax it will accept.</p> |
| | 651 | |
| | 652 | <p>Clients fail more gracefully if no password is available.</p> |
| | 653 | |
| | 654 | </div> |
| | 655 | |
| | 656 | <h2>Changes up to version 3.0.1</h2> |
| | 657 | |
| | 658 | <div class=section> |
| | 659 | |
| | 660 | <p>Debian upgrades from 2.0.x should now work better.</p> |
| | 661 | |
| | 662 | </div> |
| | 663 | |
| | 664 | <h2>Changes up to version 3.0</h2> |
| | 665 | |
| | 666 | <div class=section> |
| | 667 | |
| | 668 | <p><b>Important</b>! See <a |
| | 669 | href="README.upgrades.html">README.upgrades</a> when upgrading.</p> |
| | 670 | |
| | 671 | <h3>Platforms And Installation</h3> |
| | 672 | |
| | 673 | <div class=section> |
| | 674 | |
| | 675 | <p>Mac OS X and FreeBSD are somewhat supported. There is now a bash |
| | 676 | script in <tt>scripts/setup</tt> which will automate the setup after |
| | 677 | <tt>make install</tt>.</p> |
| | 678 | |
| | 679 | </div> |
| | 680 | |
| | 681 | <h3>Server</h3> |
| | 682 | |
| | 683 | <div class=section> |
| | 684 | |
| | 685 | <p>Users are now stored in the database rather than a configuration |
| | 686 | file.</p> |
| | 687 | |
| | 688 | <p>The server now has a built-in list of stopwords and players, so |
| | 689 | only additions to these need be mentioned in the configuration file.</p> |
| | 690 | |
| | 691 | <p>The default inter-track gap is now 0s.</p> |
| | 692 | |
| | 693 | <p>How sound is played is now controlled via the new <tt>api</tt> |
| | 694 | configuration command. This also controls how the volume is set, |
| | 695 | which now works with ALSA as well as OSS.</p> |
| | 696 | |
| | 697 | <p>A bug in the MP3 decoder was fixed (also in 2.0.4).</p> |
| | 698 | |
| | 699 | </div> |
| | 700 | |
| | 701 | <h3>Web Interface</h3> |
| | 702 | |
| | 703 | <div class=section> |
| | 704 | |
| | 705 | <p>The web interface now uses cookies to remember user identity, and |
| | 706 | allows online registration of new users. Also it is no longer |
| | 707 | necessary to manually specify the URL of the web interface (but you |
| | 708 | can override it if you don't like the value it figures out).</p> |
| | 709 | |
| | 710 | <p>It is possible to allow users to register via the web interface.</p> |
| | 711 | |
| | 712 | <p>The web interface's browser support has been improved. It has |
| | 713 | been tested with Firefox 2, Safari 3, Konqueror 3, Internet Explorer |
| | 714 | 7 and Opera 9.</p> |
| | 715 | |
| | 716 | </div> |
| | 717 | |
| | 718 | <h3>Disobedience</h3> |
| | 719 | |
| | 720 | <div class=section> |
| | 721 | |
| | 722 | <p>A bug which would cause a crash if you attempt to rearrange the |
| | 723 | queue while no track was playing has been fixed. There is a new |
| | 724 | 'deselect all tracks' option, mirroring 'select all tracks.</p> |
