4 0.?.? (to be announced) "sonic convolution"
5 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
7 A bunch of new features and core changes.
9 o the new paraslash scheduler, short and sweet.
11 o Support for m4a files via the new aac filter/ and audio
12 format handler. (requires libfaad)
14 o new writer: osxplay (thanks to Gerd Becker)
16 o writers are integrated into para_audiod
18 o each writer of para_write has its own command line parser,
19 just like para_recv and para_filter.
21 o random/playlist selector: improved info strings
23 o new audiod commands: tasks, kill
25 o para_client uses the error subsystem
28 0.2.12 (2006-05-12) "oriented abstraction"
29 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
31 Many user-visible changes in this release and lots of new
35 o the new optional dccp sender/receiver. It uses the datagram
36 congestion control protocol. You'll need a fairly new kernel
39 o paraslash works on Mac OS X (thanks to Gerd Becker)
41 o para_play renamed to para_write
43 o modular output plugin design (writers) for para_write
45 o new file_writer output plugin for para_write
47 o compress filter speed improvements
49 o update to libortp-0.9.1
51 o update to gengetopt-2.17rc
53 o para_client no longer depends on libreadline (as the
54 code for the interactive mode was removed).
56 o gcc-2-95 is no longer a supported compiler. It may still
57 work, but it gets no more testing.
59 o the tarball no longer contains the screenshot images which
60 reduces its size quite a bit.
62 o configure: new command line options: --enable-mysql-headers
63 and --enable-mysql-libs
65 0.2.11 (2006-03-11) "atomic duality"
66 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
68 Here it is, the first paraslash release developed with git. There
69 are fairly many user-visible changes in this release. As two out of
70 the three "database tools" of paraslash don't use a database at all,
71 they are now called "audio file selectors" instead.
74 o the cdt command (change database tool) becomes chs (change
77 o no more colon separators: The syntax of some options of
78 para_audiod and para_filter have changed. Use --help for
79 more info (and some examples).
81 o update to gengetopt-2.16 (thanks to Lorenzo Bettini)
83 o switch from cvs to git (should've done that earlier)
85 o the new ipc subsystem
87 o new audio file selector: playlist
89 o para_server: the dopey selector is now called "random",
90 and is the default selector. Use the --selector option to
91 choose another selector at startup, or the chs command to
92 change the selector at runtime.
94 o X86_64 fixes (thanks to Steffen Klassert)
99 0.2.10 (2006-02-17) "cyclic attractor"
100 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
102 Huge documentation update, a scrollable window for para_gui, ortp
103 improvements, and of course many small fixes not mentioned here.
104 The diffstat below is rather misleading as most insertions are due
105 to the new source documentation.
109 o para_server also uses the new error subsystem
111 o lots of new documentation (UTSL)
114 - keysyms for cursor keys and for next/previous page keys
115 - scrollable output window
116 - new internal commands: scroll up/down, page up/down
117 - fix color of command output.
119 o ortp: the --chunk_time and --header flags are no longer needed
120 for para_recv/para_audiod as this information is now encoded in
121 each rtp packet sent by para_server.

193 0.2.9 (2006-01-24) "progressive turbulence"
194 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
196 Internal audiod receivers/filters, the new error subsystem and
197 a lot of small improvements.
199 o para_recv and para_filter are integrated into the para_audiod
200 binary, i.e. audiod no longer spawns a new process for
201 each receiver/filter. As para_recv and para_filter might be
202 useful as standalone programs, they still get built (linked
203 against the same object files that are also used for audiod).
205 o further ortp timing improvements should reduce the CPU usage
206 of the ortp receiver.
208 o improved audio grabbing. The 'grab' command of para_audiod
209 has its own set of command line options. Read the output of
210 "para_audioc help grab" for more info.
212 o oggdec: configurable input prebuffer size.
214 o the new error subsystem gives better error diagnostics
215 and reduces code size.

269 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
271 The new modular filter design and the para_play-hangs bugfix.
273 o new executable: para_filter. It combines para_mp3dec,
274 para_oggdec and para_compress. It also adds a further filter
275 type, wav, that just inserts a wave header at the desired point
276 of the filter chain. All 'piping' is done in-memory (i.e. no
277 read/write operations are used).
279 o para_play: fix a stupid bug that caused it to hang under
280 certain circumstances.

305 0.2.7 (2006-12-27) "transparent invariance"
306 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
307 Not many user-visible changes but a fair amount of internal improvements.
310 o The http sender buffers data if it can not be sent
311 out immediately (because the socket is not writable). This
312 should prevent para_server from shutting down the connection
313 too early on a loaded network.
315 o para_play also prebuffers data if it is told to start at a
316 future time by the --start_time option.
318 o The return of para_recv: It combines para_ortp_recv and
319 para_http_recv. Use the --receiver option to switch between
320 the two. para_recv builds without libortp, but contains
321 only the http receiver in this case.
323 o update to ortp 0.8.1. As this ortp release contains incompatible
324 changes, para_recv-0.2.7 won't link against older ortp libs.
326 o improved ortp timings.
328 o use of gcc-extensions that #define away for non-gcc and
331 New files: gcc-compat.h

381 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
382 Transparent session encryption (uses openssl's Alleged RC4 cipher),
383 the internal find command and several other improvements and cleanups.
385 o Encrypt the session if encryption is requested by the client
386 (default for para_client 0.2.6). This is backwards
387 compatible, so older clients can still connect to para_server
388 0.2.6. Use the new client option --plain to request an
389 uncrypted session (off by default, must be set to on in
390 order to connect to para_server 0.2.x with 0 <= x <= 5).
392 o para_server uses an internal function to locate audio files
393 rather than calling find(1). The server option
394 --mysql_audio_file_dir replaces --mysql_find_cmd.
396 o documentation update
400 o header file cleanup
402 o para_client code cleanup
404 o para_gui: faster display of output of display commands

449 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
450 This release adds internal senders, i.e. no more external programs are
451 spawned for sending out the audio data. There are two different senders
452 available: The http sender and the ortp sender (former para_send which
453 is no longer needed).
455 The new sender code has a plugin-like design so it can be easily
456 extended should there be be any future need for supporting another
457 network streaming protocol. All senders are completely independent of
458 each other. In particular, the http and the ortp sender can operate
461 o new server command: sender to control senders at runtime.
462 Read the output of "para_server -h" and "para_client help
463 sender" for more information.
465 o para_recv renamed to para_ortp_recv
467 o new executable: para_http_recv, a simple command line
470 o major afs/mp3/ogg code simplifications due to internal
473 o ogg timing improvements
475 o fix several minor memory leaks (found by valgrind)
477 o empty stream definitions work again
479 o com_ne(): ignore errors on remove
481 o audiod: fix segfault on server restart

520 - new command: "grab" to grab the output of the stream reader
521 or any filters. Read the output of "para_audioc help grab"
522 for more information.
526 o audioc: new command line option: --bufsize to specify a
527 buffer size different from the default size 8192.
529 o improved error diagnostics for para_play.
531 o new configure option: --enable-ssldir so search for openssl in
534 o sdl_gui: Make it look nice again for 1024x768
536 o server: report total size of memory allocated with sbrk by malloc,
537 new command line option: --announce_time

572 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
573 Two new executables and major feature enhancements.
575 o audiod filters: It is now possible to specify arbitrary many
576 (including none) filters for each supported audio
577 format. This can be used e.g. for normalizing volume,
578 transforming or grabbing the audio stream, or for using
579 visualizers. Read the output of "para_audiod -h" for the
580 syntax of the new --filter_cmd option.
582 o new executable: para_play, a tiny alsa player. It
583 can play wave files or raw pcm (16 bit little endian)
586 o new executable: para_compress, a dynamic range compressor
587 intended to keep audio output at a consistent volume. Derived
588 from AudioCompress, http://trikuare.cx/code/AudioCompress.html.
590 o audiod: New option: --stream_delay. This can be used in
591 a local network to syncronize the audio output of all
592 clients that play the same stream.

616 Mostly internal changes in this release, but also some new commands
617 for the mysql database tool.
619 o cleanup exec.c, fix para_exec bug
620 o compile time loglevel (log messages below the given level
621 won't be compiled in, which reduces the size of the
623 o new log macros that shorten the size of the source code.
624 o workaround a gcc-4.1 bug (?) that caused send_cred_buffer()
625 to send only zeros. With this workaround, para_audioc works
627 o avoid gcc-4 warning: conflicting types for built-in function 'clog'
628 o new mysql commands: "rm" (remove entry), "mv" (rename entry) "ne"
629 (new entry), "snp" (set numplayed). Read the manual for more

671 surprise, only minor bug fixes.
673 o kill noisy mp3 debug message
674 o cleanup of the build system
675 o para_server and para_client directly use the crypto routines
676 of the openssl library rather than invoking the openssl command
678 o server/audiod: new option --user to switch to the given user
679 when invoked as root. Read the output of "para_server -h" for
681 o gui/sdl_gui: new option --stat_cmd to be used to retrieve the
682 status. Default: "para_audioc stat"
683 o sdl_gui: new option --pic_cmd to be used to download the picture.
684 Default: "para_client pic"
685 o audiod: 5 slots ought to be enough for everybody
686 o audiod: new status item: Uptime, kill hup command

729 0.2.0 (2005-08-06) "distributed diffusion"
730 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
731 After several month of increased development activity, paraslash-0.2.0
732 has arrived. It contains many new features and is much more
733 self-contained than the old 0.1.x series. Enjoy!
736 o para_server: fix hang on song change and crash on sighup.
737 Speed up mysql queries. The DIR_LIKE macro is gone.
738 o new executables: para_audiod, the local audio daemon that
739 starts playback (uses SCM_CREDENTIALS socket magic) and
740 para_audioc, the corresponding client.
741 o new executables: para_mp3dec/para_oggdec, two really teensy
742 decoders. para_mp3dec is based on libmad, para_oggdec requires
744 o ovsend/ovrecv are capable of streaming ogg as well as mp3, so
745 they are now called para_send and para_recv respectively.
746 o documentation updates
747 o para_gui is themable. For now there is the default theme that
748 looks as before and the simple theme: blue and easy.
749 o gui: audio streaming is now handled by audiod. Time display shows
750 playback time rather than streaming time
751 o slider: update to libzmw-0.2.0
752 o para_krell: fix crash on server shutdown
753 o switch from gzip to bzip2

799 0.1.7 (2005-04-18) "melting penetration"
800 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
801 The main change in this release is clearly the oggvorbis rewrite,
802 but there are also lots of smaller changes. If you intend to use both
803 the mp3 and the ogg plugin, it is recommended to use software mixing,
804 e.g. the dmix plugin which is provided by ALSA.
806 o new executables: para_ovsend and para_ovrecv for sending/receiving
807 oggvorbis files via rtp. Requires the open rtp library. Get it at
808 http://www.linphone.org/ortp/
809 o rewrite of the ogg_vorbis core code
810 o configure detects libzmw and, if detected, includes
811 para_slider to the list of binaries to be built by make
812 o server stream writers read from their associated fifo rather
814 o slider: two new sliders, lastplayed and numplayed
815 o fix nasty double free bug which caused random segfaults in case of
816 mp3 files with invalid header information
817 o gui: new command line option: --stream_timeout=seconds to
818 deactivate a slot if it is idle for that many seconds (default=`5')

849 0.1.6 (2005-03-05) "asymptotic balance"
850 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
851 Only little user-visible changes in this release. Mainly bugfixes and
852 core code cleanup. This is probably the most stable version ever if you
855 o fix several memory leaks
856 o rename default name of mysql database from "music" to "paraslash".
857 Use para_server's --mysql_database option if you do not want to
858 rename your old database.
859 o rework ogg vorbis code
860 o make update command work on mysql servers with LOCAL_INFILE
862 o gui: improved stream I/O (slots)
863 o simplified audio format API
864 o para_pob_ogg is gone
866 0.1.5 (2004-12-31) "opaque eternity"
867 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
868 Let's slide gently into the new year.
870 o new: para_slider (not built automatically, type "make
871 para_slider" to build). A toy for those who always felt that
872 creating stream definitions is difficult. See screenshots,
873 README and FEATURES for more info.
874 o improved signal handling. Fixes server segfault on SIGHUP
875 for linux kernels newer than Aug 24 2004 and makes para_gui
877 o reload database tool on SIGHUP
878 o improved help message for sl
879 o do not log "broken pipe" messages as errors. They are
881 o fix wrong error message on permission errors
883 0.1.4 (2004-12-19) "tunneling transition"
884 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
885 Bugfix release. As expected, 0.1.3 introduced a bunch of new bugs.
886 Hopefully, most of them got wiped out with this release. Some
887 enhancements went also in.
889 o improved error diagnostics for all commands
890 o stradd/picadd: overwrite previous contents if entry already
891 exists, rather than returning errors
892 o stradd: use current stream if invoked without args
893 o faster (and hopefully more stable) ogg-vorbis handling
894 o para_krell: reap children to avoid zombie-flooding in case
896 o si: report also server pid
897 o server: don't busy-loop if dbtool reports only invalid files.
898 o gui: CTRL+C works again, fix stream_read command line option
900 o fix mysql dbtool startup in case no database exists
901 o many small fixes and cleanups
903 0.1.3: (2004-12-10) "vanishing inertia"
904 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
905 Starting from this release, the database tools are integrated in the
906 server binary. This decreases server startup time, reduces code size
907 and speeds up database commands. However, the layout of the underlying
908 mysql database changed only slightly and 0.1.3 should be backwards
909 compatible in that respect.
913 o If mysql is not detected at compile time, or fails to init
914 at runtime, fall back to the dopey database tool which should
916 o para_dbtool and dbtool.conf are gone. All mysql specific
917 options are read from server.conf and are prefixed by 'mysql_'.
918 o new command: cdt (change database tool)
919 o new command line option: dbtool (choose startup database tool)
920 o The name of current stream is now stored in the database,
921 so paraslash remembers its current stream when restarted.
922 o new command: csp (change stream and play)
923 o para_gui also reports current database tool and server uptime
926 0.1.2: (2004-11-28) "spherical fluctuation"
927 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
928 Point release before the big dbtool changes go in.
930 o dbtool: rename ca to cam (copy all meta data). It now also
931 copies numplayed and lastplayed time as well as the picture
933 o fix endless-loop-bug caused by mp3 files with invalid header
935 0.1.1: (2004-11-05) "floating atmosphere"
936 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
938 o new dbtool command: mbox. Browse your sound-file collection
939 with your favorite mail reader.
940 o several small fixes
942 0.1.0: (2204-10-22) "rotating cortex"
943 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
944 o fix logging bug for loglevel > VERBOSE
946 o correct timings for vbr mp3s
947 o modular audio format support
948 o ogg-vorbis support (experimental)
949 o new server option: autoplay
951 0.0.99: (2004-07-25) "harmonic deviation"
952 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
953 o rename projectname from icc to paraslash (play, archive, rate
954 and stream large audio sets happily)
955 o paraslash is no longer restricted to one particular audio
957 o new dbtool commands (stradd, strq, strdel) for easy stream
958 managment w/o configuration file. That obsoletes stream_defs
959 file/config option for dbtool.
960 o picadd accepts jpeg data from stdin
961 o new server commands: ps (select previous stream), sc (song change)
962 o new default pictures for sdl_gui
963 o gui: new key_map option for binding commands and internal
964 functions to arbitrary keys, nice help screen, rip out
965 soundcard/linux specific stuff, avoid noise artefacts while jumping,
966 show silly logo on startup
967 o new executables: para_fade for fading volume, para_dbadm for
968 manipulating attributes
969 o cdb adds _all_ tables to mysql database
970 o revised and beautified documentation
971 o sample dbtool rewritten in C
974 0.0.98: (2003-12-26) "incremental smoothness"
975 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
976 o kick icecast in favour of poc. That removes some races and reduces
977 core code considerably.
978 o cbr/vbr is displayed by stat and gui/sdl_gui. New status flags
979 give finer info on afs' status.
980 o gui can start decoder (see config options). Further new gui
981 commands: refresh (^L), jmp (F1-F10)
982 o gui rereads conf on SIGUSR1 instead of SIGHUP. SIGHUP
983 terminates gui. This fixes dead instances consuming memory
985 o new dbtool command: verb for sending verbatim sql queries.
986 o fix pid_list races (by removing pid_list)
991 o installation prefix now defaults to /usr/local
992 o new commands for gui: snozze, sleep and reread config
993 o config file for gui and sdl_gui
994 o fix problems with filenames containing funny characters
995 (reported by Thomas Forell)

1029 o new icc_gui command: c (change stream)
1031 o stat shows also id3 tag info
1033 o log flodding bug fixed
1034 o many small fixes and cleanups
1038 o colors for icc_gui
