4 0.?.? (to be announced) "atomic duality"
5 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
7 Fairly many user-visible changes in this release. As two out of the
8 three "database tools" of paraslash don't use a database at all,
9 they are now called "audio file selectors" instead.
12 o the cdt command (change database tool) becomes chs (change
15 o no more colon separators: The syntax of some options of
16 para_audiod and para_filter have changed. Use --help for
17 more info (and some examples).
19 o update to gengetopt-2.16 (thanks to Lorenzo Bettini)
21 o switch from cvs to git (should've done that earlier)
23 o the new ipc subsystem
25 o new audio file selector: playlist
27 o para_server: the dopey selector is now called "random",
28 and is the default selector. Use the --selector option to
29 choose another selector at startup, or the chs command to
30 change the selector at runtime.
32 o X86_64 fixes (thanks to Steffen Klassert)
37 0.2.10 (2006-02-17) "cyclic attractor"
38 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
40 Huge documentation update, a scrollable window for para_gui, ortp
41 improvements, and of course many small fixes not mentioned here.
42 The diffstat below is rather misleading as most insertions are due
43 to the new source documentation.
47 o para_server also uses the new error subsystem
49 o lots of new documentation (UTSL)
52 - keysyms for cursor keys and for next/previous page keys
53 - scrollable output window
54 - new internal commands: scroll up/down, page up/down
55 - fix color of command output.
57 o ortp: the --chunk_time and --header flags are no longer needed
58 for para_recv/para_audiod as this information is now encoded in
59 each rtp packet sent by para_server.

131 0.2.9 (2006-01-24) "progressive turbulence"
132 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
134 Internal audiod receivers/filters, the new error subsystem and
135 a lot of small improvements.
137 o para_recv and para_filter are integrated into the para_audiod
138 binary, i.e. audiod no longer spawns a new process for
139 each receiver/filter. As para_recv and para_filter might be
140 useful as standalone programs, they still get built (linked
141 against the same object files that are also used for audiod).
143 o further ortp timing improvements should reduce the CPU usage
144 of the ortp receiver.
146 o improved audio grabbing. The 'grab' command of para_audiod
147 has its own set of command line options. Read the output of
148 "para_audioc help grab" for more info.
150 o oggdec: configurable input prebuffer size.
152 o the new error subsystem gives better error diagnostics
153 and reduces code size.

206 0.2.8 (2006-01-02) "dynamic accumulation"
207 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
209 The new modular filter design and the para_play-hangs bugfix.
211 o new executable: para_filter. It combines para_mp3dec,
212 para_oggdec and para_compress. It also adds a further filter
213 type, wav, that just inserts a wave header at the desired point
214 of the filter chain. All 'piping' is done in-memory (i.e. no
215 read/write operations are used).
217 o para_play: fix a stupid bug that caused it to hang under
218 certain circumstances.

243 0.2.7 (2006-12-27) "transparent invariance"
244 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
245 Not many user-visible changes but a fair amount of internal improvements.
248 o The http sender buffers data if it can not be sent
249 out immediately (because the socket is not writable). This
250 should prevent para_server from shutting down the connection
251 too early on a loaded network.
253 o para_play also prebuffers data if it is told to start at a
254 future time by the --start_time option.
256 o The return of para_recv: It combines para_ortp_recv and
257 para_http_recv. Use the --receiver option to switch between
258 the two. para_recv builds without libortp, but contains
259 only the http receiver in this case.
261 o update to ortp 0.8.1. As this ortp release contains incompatible
262 changes, para_recv-0.2.7 won't link against older ortp libs.
264 o improved ortp timings.
266 o use of gcc-extensions that #define away for non-gcc and
269 New files: gcc-compat.h

319 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
320 Transparent session encryption (uses openssl's Alleged RC4 cipher),
321 the internal find command and several other improvements and cleanups.
323 o Encrypt the session if encryption is requested by the client
324 (default for para_client 0.2.6). This is backwards
325 compatible, so older clients can still connect to para_server
326 0.2.6. Use the new client option --plain to request an
327 uncrypted session (off by default, must be set to on in
328 order to connect to para_server 0.2.x with 0 <= x <= 5).
330 o para_server uses an internal function to locate audio files
331 rather than calling find(1). The server option
332 --mysql_audio_file_dir replaces --mysql_find_cmd.
334 o documentation update
338 o header file cleanup
340 o para_client code cleanup
342 o para_gui: faster display of output of display commands

387 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
388 This release adds internal senders, i.e. no more external programs are
389 spawned for sending out the audio data. There are two different senders
390 available: The http sender and the ortp sender (former para_send which
391 is no longer needed).
393 The new sender code has a plugin-like design so it can be easily
394 extended should there be be any future need for supporting another
395 network streaming protocol. All senders are completely independent of
396 each other. In particular, the http and the ortp sender can operate
399 o new server command: sender to control senders at runtime.
400 Read the output of "para_server -h" and "para_client help
401 sender" for more information.
403 o para_recv renamed to para_ortp_recv
405 o new executable: para_http_recv, a simple command line
408 o major afs/mp3/ogg code simplifications due to internal
411 o ogg timing improvements
413 o fix several minor memory leaks (found by valgrind)
415 o empty stream definitions work again
417 o com_ne(): ignore errors on remove
419 o audiod: fix segfault on server restart

454 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
455 Several small improvements, fixes and the new grab command.
458 - new command: "grab" to grab the output of the stream reader
459 or any filters. Read the output of "para_audioc help grab"
460 for more information.
464 o audioc: new command line option: --bufsize to specify a
465 buffer size different from the default size 8192.
467 o improved error diagnostics for para_play.
469 o new configure option: --enable-ssldir so search for openssl in
472 o sdl_gui: Make it look nice again for 1024x768
474 o server: report total size of memory allocated with sbrk by malloc,
475 new command line option: --announce_time

510 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
511 Two new executables and major feature enhancements.
513 o audiod filters: It is now possible to specify arbitrary many
514 (including none) filters for each supported audio
515 format. This can be used e.g. for normalizing volume,
516 transforming or grabbing the audio stream, or for using
517 visualizers. Read the output of "para_audiod -h" for the
518 syntax of the new --filter_cmd option.
520 o new executable: para_play, a tiny alsa player. It
521 can play wave files or raw pcm (16 bit little endian)
524 o new executable: para_compress, a dynamic range compressor
525 intended to keep audio output at a consistent volume. Derived
526 from AudioCompress, http://trikuare.cx/code/AudioCompress.html.
528 o audiod: New option: --stream_delay. This can be used in
529 a local network to syncronize the audio output of all
530 clients that play the same stream.

554 Mostly internal changes in this release, but also some new commands
555 for the mysql database tool.
557 o cleanup exec.c, fix para_exec bug
558 o compile time loglevel (log messages below the given level
559 won't be compiled in, which reduces the size of the
561 o new log macros that shorten the size of the source code.
562 o workaround a gcc-4.1 bug (?) that caused send_cred_buffer()
563 to send only zeros. With this workaround, para_audioc works
565 o avoid gcc-4 warning: conflicting types for built-in function 'clog'
566 o new mysql commands: "rm" (remove entry), "mv" (rename entry) "ne"
567 (new entry), "snp" (set numplayed). Read the manual for more

609 surprise, only minor bug fixes.
611 o kill noisy mp3 debug message
612 o cleanup of the build system
613 o para_server and para_client directly use the crypto routines
614 of the openssl library rather than invoking the openssl command
616 o server/audiod: new option --user to switch to the given user
617 when invoked as root. Read the output of "para_server -h" for
619 o gui/sdl_gui: new option --stat_cmd to be used to retrieve the
620 status. Default: "para_audioc stat"
621 o sdl_gui: new option --pic_cmd to be used to download the picture.
622 Default: "para_client pic"
623 o audiod: 5 slots ought to be enough for everybody
624 o audiod: new status item: Uptime, kill hup command
627 New files: crypt.c crypt.h

667 0.2.0 (2005-08-06) "distributed diffusion"
668 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
669 After several month of increased development activity, paraslash-0.2.0
670 has arrived. It contains many new features and is much more
671 self-contained than the old 0.1.x series. Enjoy!
674 o para_server: fix hang on song change and crash on sighup.
675 Speed up mysql queries. The DIR_LIKE macro is gone.
676 o new executables: para_audiod, the local audio daemon that
677 starts playback (uses SCM_CREDENTIALS socket magic) and
678 para_audioc, the corresponding client.
679 o new executables: para_mp3dec/para_oggdec, two really teensy
680 decoders. para_mp3dec is based on libmad, para_oggdec requires
682 o ovsend/ovrecv are capable of streaming ogg as well as mp3, so
683 they are now called para_send and para_recv respectively.
684 o documentation updates
685 o para_gui is themable. For now there is the default theme that
686 looks as before and the simple theme: blue and easy.
687 o gui: audio streaming is now handled by audiod. Time display shows
688 playback time rather than streaming time
689 o slider: update to libzmw-0.2.0
690 o para_krell: fix crash on server shutdown
691 o switch from gzip to bzip2

737 0.1.7 (2005-04-18) "melting penetration"
738 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
739 The main change in this release is clearly the oggvorbis rewrite,
740 but there are also lots of smaller changes. If you intend to use both
741 the mp3 and the ogg plugin, it is recommended to use software mixing,
742 e.g. the dmix plugin which is provided by ALSA.
744 o new executables: para_ovsend and para_ovrecv for sending/receiving
745 oggvorbis files via rtp. Requires the open rtp library. Get it at
746 http://www.linphone.org/ortp/
747 o rewrite of the ogg_vorbis core code
748 o configure detects libzmw and, if detected, includes
749 para_slider to the list of binaries to be built by make
750 o server stream writers read from their associated fifo rather
752 o slider: two new sliders, lastplayed and numplayed
753 o fix nasty double free bug which caused random segfaults in case of
754 mp3 files with invalid header information
755 o gui: new command line option: --stream_timeout=seconds to
756 deactivate a slot if it is idle for that many seconds (default=`5')

787 0.1.6 (2005-03-05) "asymptotic balance"
788 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
789 Only little user-visible changes in this release. Mainly bugfixes and
790 core code cleanup. This is probably the most stable version ever if you
793 o fix several memory leaks
794 o rename default name of mysql database from "music" to "paraslash".
795 Use para_server's --mysql_database option if you do not want to
796 rename your old database.
797 o rework ogg vorbis code
798 o make update command work on mysql servers with LOCAL_INFILE
800 o gui: improved stream I/O (slots)
801 o simplified audio format API
802 o para_pob_ogg is gone
804 0.1.5 (2004-12-31) "opaque eternity"
805 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
806 Let's slide gently into the new year.
808 o new: para_slider (not built automatically, type "make
809 para_slider" to build). A toy for those who always felt that
810 creating stream definitions is difficult. See screenshots,
811 README and FEATURES for more info.
812 o improved signal handling. Fixes server segfault on SIGHUP
813 for linux kernels newer than Aug 24 2004 and makes para_gui
815 o reload database tool on SIGHUP
816 o improved help message for sl
817 o do not log "broken pipe" messages as errors. They are
819 o fix wrong error message on permission errors
821 0.1.4 (2004-12-19) "tunneling transition"
822 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
823 Bugfix release. As expected, 0.1.3 introduced a bunch of new bugs.
824 Hopefully, most of them got wiped out with this release. Some
825 enhancements went also in.
827 o improved error diagnostics for all commands
828 o stradd/picadd: overwrite previous contents if entry already
829 exists, rather than returning errors
830 o stradd: use current stream if invoked without args
831 o faster (and hopefully more stable) ogg-vorbis handling
832 o para_krell: reap children to avoid zombie-flooding in case
834 o si: report also server pid
835 o server: don't busy-loop if dbtool reports only invalid files.
836 o gui: CTRL+C works again, fix stream_read command line option
838 o fix mysql dbtool startup in case no database exists
839 o many small fixes and cleanups
841 0.1.3: (2004-12-10) "vanishing inertia"
842 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
843 Starting from this release, the database tools are integrated in the
844 server binary. This decreases server startup time, reduces code size
845 and speeds up database commands. However, the layout of the underlying
846 mysql database changed only slightly and 0.1.3 should be backwards
847 compatible in that respect.
851 o If mysql is not detected at compile time, or fails to init
852 at runtime, fall back to the dopey database tool which should
854 o para_dbtool and dbtool.conf are gone. All mysql specific
855 options are read from server.conf and are prefixed by 'mysql_'.
856 o new command: cdt (change database tool)
857 o new command line option: dbtool (choose startup database tool)
858 o The name of current stream is now stored in the database,
859 so paraslash remembers its current stream when restarted.
860 o new command: csp (change stream and play)
861 o para_gui also reports current database tool and server uptime
864 0.1.2: (2004-11-28) "spherical fluctuation"
