4 --------------------------------------------
5 0.3.1 (to be announced) "liquid interaction"
6 --------------------------------------------
8 - Share some similar/duplicate code between the http and the dccp sender.
9 - Generic access control lists for paraslash senders.
10 - Update to gengetopt-2.22
11 - fix a bug in the "off" command of the http sender.
12 - fix some fd and memory leaks.
14 -------------------------------------
15 0.3.0 (2008-01-12) "solar saturation"
16 -------------------------------------
18 paraslash.0.3.0 -- 'WWDBND --what would databases never do?'.
21 Usually one might expect lots of new features AND a big increase in size
22 for a major release like this.
24 However, paraslash-0.3.0.tar.bz2 is the smallest paraslash tarball
25 ever. The decrease in size is mostly due to the removal of some
26 graphical tools (which were only quick hacks anyway). But also the
27 fact that the mysql code is gone cuts down the size a bit.
29 Being independent of mysql comes at a cost: The fact that paraslash
30 now contains its own database (the object storage layer, osl) increases
31 the (stripped) binary size of para_server by ~50K on i386.
33 - no more restrictions on unique basenames.
34 - independent of mysql: The new self-contained object
35 storage layer (osl) replaces the mysql database.
36 - New executable para_fsck: Check integrity of osl tables.
38 - Reliable audio file move/rename detection.
39 - More portable than ever: Tested on Linux (x86_32, x86_64, sparc64),
40 MacOS (ppc32, x86_32), FreeBSD (x86_32), NetBSD (x86_32) and
42 - the new osl-based audio file selector (afs) replaces the random,
43 the playlist and the mysql selector of paraslash-0.2.x.
44 - IPv6 support (thanks to Gerrit Renker).
45 - paraslash-0.2.x streams are now called "moods". Writing
46 0.3.x-mood definitions should be both easier and more
47 powerful than writing 0.2.x-stream definitions.
48 - para_krell, para_slider, para_para_sdl_gui, para_dbadm have
49 been removed. The world is a better place without them. However,
50 para_gui is still there.
51 - afs tracks audio file selection also in playlist mode.
52 - few easy-to-use afs commands replace the many not-so-easy-to-use
53 mysql commands (and are available also in playlist mode).
54 - Improved error subsystem.
55 - The earth-shaking new logo.
57 -----------------------------------------
58 0.2.17 (2007-11-20) "isotropic threshold"
59 -----------------------------------------
61 Mainly bugfixes and cleanups in this version which marks the end of
62 the 0.2.x series if no serious bugs show up after the release.
64 - mysql_selector: fix a locking bug.
65 - universal chunk queueing.
66 - dccp sender uses chunk queueing if write() returns EAGAIN (thanks
68 - be more carful wrt. signed vs. unsigned argument passing.
69 - cleanup error.h and fix some references to invalid error
71 - update to gengetopt-2.21.
72 - update to ortp-0.13.1.
73 - autoconf: extend checks for headers, library functions and
74 compiler characteristics.
75 - Fix streaming of large mp3 files.
76 - Fix an off-by-one bug in playlist handling.
78 --------------------------------------
79 0.2.16 (2007-04-05) "neural discharge"
80 --------------------------------------
82 The main change in this release is the major audio format handler
83 cleanup which removes some similar/duplicate code and makes it easier
84 to implement plugins for other audio formats. Of course, the usual mix
85 of other improvements/changes/bugfixes also made it into the release.
87 - simplified audio format handlers (most of the handling functions
88 were moved one layer up to the virtual streaming system).
89 - para_server uses mmap to read audio files
90 - repositioning of mp3 streams is much faster, in particular for
91 jumping near the end of large mp3 files.
92 - permission flags DB_READ,DB_WRITE have been renamed to AFS_READ
94 - fix a bug in para_filter that caused decoding of aac files
95 to start only after a few seconds.
96 - fix osx_writer hangs
97 - simplified dccp code (thanks to Gerrit Renker)
98 - the compress filter works also on big endian systems (ppc)
100 -----------------------------------------
101 0.2.15 (2007-02-16) "inductive resonance"
102 -----------------------------------------
104 Minor improvements, more documentation and a bunch of bug fixes.
106 - para_server: The server.users file is only read once on server
107 startup rather than for each connection
108 - mp3dec: Fix decoding of corrupt mp3 files
109 - afs (audio file sender) is now called vss (virtual streaming
110 system). Consequently, the permission flags specified in
111 ~/.paraslash/server.users have also changed: AFS_READ and AFS_WRITE
112 become VSS_READ and VSS_WRITE respectively.
113 - para_audiod/para_filter: Fix a bug that caused the last chunk
114 of audio data not being written under certain circumstances
115 - audiod: compute the difference of server time and local time
117 - para_server/para_audiod: Fix some memory leaks
118 - documentation improvements
119 - configure.ac: fix checks for para_krell
122 -------------------------------------------
123 0.2.14 (2006-10-15) "transient singularity"
124 -------------------------------------------
126 The only major enhancement of this version is the osx writer which completes
127 the Mac OS Port and was originally planned already for 0.2.13 but had to wait
128 until now for reasons beyond the scope of this changelog entry.
130 - new output plugin for Mac Os: the osx writer
131 - rename configure command line options from --enable-xxx-headers to
132 --with-xxx-headers and --enable-xxx-libs to --with-xxx-libs
133 - configure: new command line options: --with-mad-headers,
134 --with-mad-libs, --with-oggvorbis-headers, and --with-oggvorbis-libs
135 - some robustness fixes
136 - dymamic audio format recognition for audiod
137 - para_server: new command line option: --autoplay_delay
138 - para_audiod: new command line option: --clock_diff_count
140 ---------------------------------------
141 0.2.13 (2006-07-14) "sonic convolution"
142 ---------------------------------------
144 A bunch of new features and core changes.
146 - the new paraslash scheduler, short and sweet.
147 - Support for m4a/mp4 files via the new aac audio format
148 handler/filter (requires libfaad).
149 - each writer has its own command line parser, just like
150 para_recv and para_filter.
151 - para_client and para_audioc use the error subsystem
152 - writers are integrated in para_audiod (currently linux-only)
153 - para_client is integrated in para_audiod
154 - random/playlist selector: improved info strings
155 - new audiod commands: tasks, kill
156 - update to libortp-0.10.1
157 - para_fade: wake time defaults to 8 hours from now
158 - update to autoconf-2.60
161 ------------------------------------------
162 0.2.12 (2006-05-12) "oriented abstraction"
163 ------------------------------------------
165 Many user-visible changes in this release and lots of new
169 - the new optional dccp sender/receiver. It uses the datagram
170 congestion control protocol. You'll need a fairly new kernel
172 - paraslash works on Mac OS X (thanks to Gerd Becker)
173 - para_play renamed to para_write
174 - modular output plugin design (writers) for para_write
175 - new file_writer output plugin for para_write
176 - compress filter speed improvements
177 - update to libortp-0.9.1
178 - update to gengetopt-2.17rc
179 - para_client no longer depends on libreadline (as the
180 code for the interactive mode was removed).
181 - gcc-2-95 is no longer a supported compiler. It may still
182 work, but it gets no more testing.
183 - the tarball no longer contains the screenshot images which
184 reduces its size quite a bit.
185 - configure: new command line options: --enable-mysql-headers
186 and --enable-mysql-libs
188 ------------------------------------
189 0.2.11 (2006-03-11) "atomic duality"
190 ------------------------------------
192 Here it is, the first paraslash release developed with git. There
193 are fairly many user-visible changes in this release. As two out of
194 the three "database tools" of paraslash don't use a database at all,
195 they are now called "audio file selectors" instead.
198 - the cdt command (change database tool) becomes chs (change
200 - no more colon separators: The syntax of some options of
201 para_audiod and para_filter have changed. Use --help for
202 more info (and some examples).
203 - update to gengetopt-2.16 (thanks to Lorenzo Bettini)
204 - switch from cvs to git (should've done that earlier)
205 - the new ipc subsystem
206 - new audio file selector: playlist
207 - para_server: the dopey selector is now called "random",
208 and is the default selector. Use the --selector option to
209 choose another selector at startup, or the chs command to
210 change the selector at runtime.
211 - X86_64 fixes (thanks to Steffen Klassert)
215 --------------------------------------
216 0.2.10 (2006-02-17) "cyclic attractor"
217 --------------------------------------
219 Huge documentation update, a scrollable window for para_gui, ortp
220 improvements, and of course many small fixes not mentioned here.
221 The diffstat below is rather misleading as most insertions are due
222 to the new source documentation.
225 - para_server also uses the new error subsystem
226 - lots of new documentation (UTSL)
228 - keysyms for cursor keys and for next/previous page keys
229 - scrollable output window
230 - new internal commands: scroll up/down, page up/down
231 - fix color of command output.
232 - ortp: the --chunk_time and --header flags are no longer needed
233 for para_recv/para_audiod as this information is now encoded in
234 each rtp packet sent by para_server.
237 -------------------------------------------
238 0.2.9 (2006-01-24) "progressive turbulence"
239 -------------------------------------------
241 Internal audiod receivers/filters, the new error subsystem and
242 a lot of small improvements.
244 - para_recv and para_filter are integrated into the para_audiod
245 binary, i.e. audiod no longer spawns a new process for
246 each receiver/filter. As para_recv and para_filter might be
247 useful as standalone programs, they still get built (linked
248 against the same object files that are also used for audiod).
249 - further ortp timing improvements should reduce the CPU usage
250 of the ortp receiver.
251 - improved audio grabbing. The 'grab' command of para_audiod
252 has its own set of command line options. Read the output of
253 "para_audioc help grab" for more info.
254 - oggdec: configurable input prebuffer size.
255 - the new error subsystem gives better error diagnostics
256 and reduces code size.
259 -----------------------------------------
260 0.2.8 (2006-01-02) "dynamic accumulation"
261 -----------------------------------------
263 The new modular filter design and the para_play-hangs bugfix.
265 - new executable: para_filter. It combines para_mp3dec,
266 para_oggdec and para_compress. It also adds a further filter
267 type, wav, that just inserts a wave header at the desired point
268 of the filter chain. All 'piping' is done in-memory (i.e. no
269 read/write operations are used).
270 - para_play: fix a stupid bug that caused it to hang under
271 certain circumstances.
274 -------------------------------------------
275 0.2.7 (2006-12-27) "transparent invariance"
276 -------------------------------------------
278 Not many user-visible changes but a fair amount of internal improvements.
281 - The http sender buffers data if it can not be sent
282 out immediately (because the socket is not writable). This
283 should prevent para_server from shutting down the connection
284 too early on a loaded network.
285 - para_play also prebuffers data if it is told to start at a
286 future time by the --start_time option.
287 - The return of para_recv: It combines para_ortp_recv and
288 para_http_recv. Use the --receiver option to switch between
289 the two. para_recv builds without libortp, but contains
290 only the http receiver in this case.
291 - update to ortp 0.8.1. As this ortp release contains incompatible
292 changes, para_recv-0.2.7 won't link against older ortp libs.
293 - improved ortp timings.
294 - use of gcc-extensions that #define away for non-gcc and
298 -------------------------------------------
299 0.2.6 (2005-10-29) "recursive compensation"
300 -------------------------------------------
302 Transparent session encryption (uses openssl's Alleged RC4 cipher),
303 the internal find command and several other improvements and cleanups.
305 - Encrypt the session if encryption is requested by the client
306 (default for para_client 0.2.6). This is backwards
307 compatible, so older clients can still connect to para_server
308 0.2.6. Use the new client option --plain to request an
309 uncrypted session (off by default, must be set to on in
310 order to connect to para_server 0.2.x with 0 <= x <= 5).
311 - para_server uses an internal function to locate audio files
312 rather than calling find(1). The server option
313 --mysql_audio_file_dir replaces --mysql_find_cmd.
314 - documentation update
316 - header file cleanup
317 - para_client code cleanup
318 - para_gui: faster display of output of display commands
321 ------------------------------------------
322 0.2.5 (2005-10-13) "aggressive resolution"
323 ------------------------------------------
325 This release adds internal senders, i.e. no more external programs are
326 spawned for sending out the audio data. There are two different senders
327 available: The http sender and the ortp sender (former para_send which
328 is no longer needed).
330 The new sender code has a plugin-like design so it can be easily
331 extended should there be be any future need for supporting another
332 network streaming protocol. All senders are completely independent of
333 each other. In particular, the http and the ortp sender can operate
336 - new server command: sender to control senders at runtime.
337 Read the output of "para_server -h" and "para_client help
338 sender" for more information.
339 - para_recv renamed to para_ortp_recv
340 - new executable: para_http_recv, a simple command line
342 - major afs/mp3/ogg code simplifications due to internal
344 - ogg timing improvements
345 - fix several minor memory leaks (found by valgrind)
346 - empty stream definitions work again
347 - com_ne(): ignore errors on remove
348 - audiod: fix segfault on server restart
351 ---------------------------------------
352 0.2.4 (2005-09-21) "toxic anticipation"
353 ---------------------------------------
355 Several small improvements, fixes and the new grab command.
358 - new command: "grab" to grab the output of the stream reader
359 or any filters. Read the output of "para_audioc help grab"
360 for more information.
363 - audioc: new command line option: --bufsize to specify a
364 buffer size different from the default size 8192.
365 - improved error diagnostics for para_play.
366 - new configure option: --enable-ssldir so search for openssl in
368 - sdl_gui: Make it look nice again for 1024x768
369 - server: report total size of memory allocated with sbrk by malloc,
370 new command line option: --announce_time
373 -----------------------------------------
374 0.2.3 (2005-09-01) "hydrophilic movement"
375 -----------------------------------------
377 Two new executables and major feature enhancements.
379 - audiod filters: It is now possible to specify arbitrary many
380 (including none) filters for each supported audio
381 format. This can be used e.g. for normalizing volume,
382 transforming or grabbing the audio stream, or for using
383 visualizers. Read the output of "para_audiod -h" for the
384 syntax of the new --filter_cmd option.
385 - new executable: para_play, a tiny alsa player. It
386 can play wave files or raw pcm (16 bit little endian)
388 - new executable: para_compress, a dynamic range compressor
389 intended to keep audio output at a consistent volume. Derived
390 from AudioCompress, http://trikuare.cx/code/AudioCompress.html.
391 - audiod: New option: --stream_delay. This can be used in
392 a local network to syncronize the audio output of all
393 clients that play the same stream.
396 ------------------------------------------
397 0.2.2 (2005-08-19) "tangential excitation"
398 ------------------------------------------
400 Mostly internal changes in this release, but also some new commands
401 for the mysql database tool.
403 - cleanup exec.c, fix para_exec bug
404 - compile time loglevel (log messages below the given level
405 won't be compiled in, which reduces the size of the
407 - new log macros that shorten the size of the source code.
408 - workaround a gcc-4.1 bug (?) that caused send_cred_buffer()
409 to send only zeros. With this workaround, para_audioc works
411 - avoid gcc-4 warning: conflicting types for built-in function 'clog'
412 - new mysql commands: "rm" (remove entry), "mv" (rename entry) "ne"
413 (new entry), "snp" (set numplayed). Read the manual for more
417 ---------------------------------------
418 0.2.1 (2005-08-15) "surreal experience"
419 ---------------------------------------
421 Here comes paraslash-0.2.1. It contains a couple of new features and,
422 surprise, only minor bug fixes.
424 - kill noisy mp3 debug message
425 - cleanup of the build system
426 - para_server and para_client directly use the crypto routines
427 of the openssl library rather than invoking the openssl command
429 - server/audiod: new option --user to switch to the given user
430 when invoked as root. Read the output of "para_server -h" for
432 - gui/sdl_gui: new option --stat_cmd to be used to retrieve the
433 status. Default: "para_audioc stat"
434 - sdl_gui: new option --pic_cmd to be used to download the picture.
435 Default: "para_client pic"
436 - audiod: 5 slots ought to be enough for everybody
437 - audiod: new status item: Uptime, kill hup command
441 ------------------------------------------
442 0.2.0 (2005-08-06) "distributed diffusion"
443 ------------------------------------------
445 After several month of increased development activity, paraslash-0.2.0
446 has arrived. It contains many new features and is much more
447 self-contained than the old 0.1.x series. Enjoy!
450 - para_server: fix hang on song change and crash on sighup.
451 Speed up mysql queries. The DIR_LIKE macro is gone.
452 - new executables: para_audiod, the local audio daemon that
453 starts playback (uses SCM_CREDENTIALS socket magic) and
454 para_audioc, the corresponding client.
455 - new executables: para_mp3dec/para_oggdec, two really teensy
456 decoders. para_mp3dec is based on libmad, para_oggdec requires
458 - ovsend/ovrecv are capable of streaming ogg as well as mp3, so
459 they are now called para_send and para_recv respectively.
460 - documentation updates
461 - para_gui is themable. For now there is the default theme that
462 looks as before and the simple theme: blue and easy.
463 - gui: audio streaming is now handled by audiod. Time display shows
464 playback time rather than streaming time
465 - slider: update to libzmw-0.2.0
466 - para_krell: fix crash on server shutdown
467 - switch from gzip to bzip2
470 ----------------------------------------
471 0.1.7 (2005-04-18) "melting penetration"
472 ----------------------------------------
474 The main change in this release is clearly the oggvorbis rewrite,
475 but there are also lots of smaller changes. If you intend to use both
476 the mp3 and the ogg plugin, it is recommended to use software mixing,
477 e.g. the dmix plugin which is provided by ALSA.
479 - new executables: para_ovsend and para_ovrecv for sending/receiving
480 oggvorbis files via rtp. Requires the open rtp library. Get it at
481 http://www.linphone.org/ortp/
482 - rewrite of the ogg_vorbis core code
483 - configure detects libzmw and, if detected, includes
484 para_slider to the list of binaries to be built by make
485 - server stream writers read from their associated fifo rather
487 - slider: two new sliders, lastplayed and numplayed
488 - fix nasty double free bug which caused random segfaults in case of
489 mp3 files with invalid header information
490 - gui: new command line option: --stream_timeout=seconds to
491 deactivate a slot if it is idle for that many seconds (default=`5')
495 ---------------------------------------
496 0.1.6 (2005-03-05) "asymptotic balance"
497 ---------------------------------------
499 Only little user-visible changes in this release. Mainly bugfixes and
500 core code cleanup. This is probably the most stable version ever if you
503 - fix several memory leaks
504 - rename default name of mysql database from "music" to "paraslash".
505 Use para_server's --mysql_database option if you do not want to
506 rename your old database.
507 - rework ogg vorbis code
508 - make update command work on mysql servers with LOCAL_INFILE
510 - gui: improved stream I/O (slots)
511 - simplified audio format API
512 - para_pob_ogg is gone
514 ------------------------------------
515 0.1.5 (2004-12-31) "opaque eternity"
516 ------------------------------------
518 Let's slide gently into the new year.
520 - new: para_slider (not built automatically, type "make
521 para_slider" to build). A toy for those who always felt that
522 creating stream definitions is difficult. See screenshots,
523 README and FEATURES for more info.
524 - improved signal handling. Fixes server segfault on SIGHUP
525 for linux kernels newer than Aug 24 2004 and makes para_gui
527 - reload database tool on SIGHUP
528 - improved help message for sl
529 - do not log "broken pipe" messages as errors. They are
531 - fix wrong error message on permission errors
533 -----------------------------------------
534 0.1.4 (2004-12-19) "tunneling transition"
535 -----------------------------------------
537 Bugfix release. As expected, 0.1.3 introduced a bunch of new bugs.
538 Hopefully, most of them got wiped out with this release. Some
539 enhancements went also in.
541 - improved error diagnostics for all commands
542 - stradd/picadd: overwrite previous contents if entry already
543 exists, rather than returning errors
544 - stradd: use current stream if invoked without args
545 - faster (and hopefully more stable) ogg-vorbis handling
546 - para_krell: reap children to avoid zombie-flooding in case
548 - si: report also server pid
549 - server: don't busy-loop if dbtool reports only invalid files.
550 - gui: CTRL+C works again, fix stream_read command line option
552 - fix mysql dbtool startup in case no database exists
553 - many small fixes and cleanups
555 ---------------------------------------
556 0.1.3: (2004-12-10) "vanishing inertia"
557 ---------------------------------------
559 Starting from this release, the database tools are integrated in the
560 server binary. This decreases server startup time, reduces code size
561 and speeds up database commands. However, the layout of the underlying
562 mysql database changed only slightly and 0.1.3 should be backwards
563 compatible in that respect.
567 - If mysql is not detected at compile time, or fails to init
568 at runtime, fall back to the dopey database tool which should
570 - para_dbtool and dbtool.conf are gone. All mysql specific
571 options are read from server.conf and are prefixed by 'mysql_'.
572 - new command: cdt (change database tool)
573 - new command line option: dbtool (choose startup database tool)
574 - The name of current stream is now stored in the database,
575 so paraslash remembers its current stream when restarted.
576 - new command: csp (change stream and play)
577 - para_gui also reports current database tool and server uptime
580 -------------------------------------------
581 0.1.2: (2004-11-28) "spherical fluctuation"
582 -------------------------------------------
584 Point release before the big dbtool changes go in.
586 - dbtool: rename ca to cam (copy all meta data). It now also
587 copies numplayed and lastplayed time as well as the picture
589 - fix endless-loop-bug caused by mp3 files with invalid header
591 -----------------------------------------
592 0.1.1: (2004-11-05) "floating atmosphere"
593 -----------------------------------------
596 - new dbtool command: mbox. Browse your sound-file collection
597 with your favorite mail reader.
598 - several small fixes
600 -------------------------------------
601 0.1.0: (2204-10-22) "rotating cortex"
602 -------------------------------------
604 - fix logging bug for loglevel > VERBOSE
606 - correct timings for vbr mp3s
