4 0.?.? (to be announced) "oriented abstraction"
5 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
7 o the new optional dccp sender/receiver. It uses the datagram
8 congestion control protocol. You'll need a fairly new kernel
11 o compress filter speed improvements
13 o update to libortp-0.9.1
16 0.2.11 (2006-03-11) "atomic duality"
17 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
19 Here it is, the first paraslash release developed with git. There
20 are fairly many user-visible changes in this release. As two out of
21 the three "database tools" of paraslash don't use a database at all,
22 they are now called "audio file selectors" instead.
25 o the cdt command (change database tool) becomes chs (change
28 o no more colon separators: The syntax of some options of
29 para_audiod and para_filter have changed. Use --help for
30 more info (and some examples).
32 o update to gengetopt-2.16 (thanks to Lorenzo Bettini)
34 o switch from cvs to git (should've done that earlier)
36 o the new ipc subsystem
38 o new audio file selector: playlist
40 o para_server: the dopey selector is now called "random",
41 and is the default selector. Use the --selector option to
42 choose another selector at startup, or the chs command to
43 change the selector at runtime.
45 o X86_64 fixes (thanks to Steffen Klassert)
50 0.2.10 (2006-02-17) "cyclic attractor"
51 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
53 Huge documentation update, a scrollable window for para_gui, ortp
54 improvements, and of course many small fixes not mentioned here.
55 The diffstat below is rather misleading as most insertions are due
56 to the new source documentation.
60 o para_server also uses the new error subsystem
62 o lots of new documentation (UTSL)
65 - keysyms for cursor keys and for next/previous page keys
66 - scrollable output window
67 - new internal commands: scroll up/down, page up/down
68 - fix color of command output.
70 o ortp: the --chunk_time and --header flags are no longer needed
71 for para_recv/para_audiod as this information is now encoded in
72 each rtp packet sent by para_server.

144 0.2.9 (2006-01-24) "progressive turbulence"
145 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
147 Internal audiod receivers/filters, the new error subsystem and
148 a lot of small improvements.
150 o para_recv and para_filter are integrated into the para_audiod
151 binary, i.e. audiod no longer spawns a new process for
152 each receiver/filter. As para_recv and para_filter might be
153 useful as standalone programs, they still get built (linked
154 against the same object files that are also used for audiod).
156 o further ortp timing improvements should reduce the CPU usage
157 of the ortp receiver.
159 o improved audio grabbing. The 'grab' command of para_audiod
160 has its own set of command line options. Read the output of
161 "para_audioc help grab" for more info.
163 o oggdec: configurable input prebuffer size.
165 o the new error subsystem gives better error diagnostics
166 and reduces code size.

219 0.2.8 (2006-01-02) "dynamic accumulation"
220 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
222 The new modular filter design and the para_play-hangs bugfix.
224 o new executable: para_filter. It combines para_mp3dec,
225 para_oggdec and para_compress. It also adds a further filter
226 type, wav, that just inserts a wave header at the desired point
227 of the filter chain. All 'piping' is done in-memory (i.e. no
228 read/write operations are used).
230 o para_play: fix a stupid bug that caused it to hang under
231 certain circumstances.

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

331 0.2.6 (2005-10-29) "recursive compensation"
332 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
333 Transparent session encryption (uses openssl's Alleged RC4 cipher),
334 the internal find command and several other improvements and cleanups.
336 o Encrypt the session if encryption is requested by the client
337 (default for para_client 0.2.6). This is backwards
338 compatible, so older clients can still connect to para_server
339 0.2.6. Use the new client option --plain to request an
340 uncrypted session (off by default, must be set to on in
341 order to connect to para_server 0.2.x with 0 <= x <= 5).
343 o para_server uses an internal function to locate audio files
344 rather than calling find(1). The server option
345 --mysql_audio_file_dir replaces --mysql_find_cmd.
347 o documentation update
351 o header file cleanup
353 o para_client code cleanup
355 o para_gui: faster display of output of display commands

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

467 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
468 Several small improvements, fixes and the new grab command.
471 - new command: "grab" to grab the output of the stream reader
472 or any filters. Read the output of "para_audioc help grab"
473 for more information.
477 o audioc: new command line option: --bufsize to specify a
478 buffer size different from the default size 8192.
480 o improved error diagnostics for para_play.
482 o new configure option: --enable-ssldir so search for openssl in
485 o sdl_gui: Make it look nice again for 1024x768
487 o server: report total size of memory allocated with sbrk by malloc,
488 new command line option: --announce_time

523 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
524 Two new executables and major feature enhancements.
526 o audiod filters: It is now possible to specify arbitrary many
527 (including none) filters for each supported audio
528 format. This can be used e.g. for normalizing volume,
529 transforming or grabbing the audio stream, or for using
530 visualizers. Read the output of "para_audiod -h" for the
531 syntax of the new --filter_cmd option.
533 o new executable: para_play, a tiny alsa player. It
534 can play wave files or raw pcm (16 bit little endian)
537 o new executable: para_compress, a dynamic range compressor
538 intended to keep audio output at a consistent volume. Derived
539 from AudioCompress, http://trikuare.cx/code/AudioCompress.html.
541 o audiod: New option: --stream_delay. This can be used in
542 a local network to syncronize the audio output of all
543 clients that play the same stream.

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

622 surprise, only minor bug fixes.
624 o kill noisy mp3 debug message
625 o cleanup of the build system
626 o para_server and para_client directly use the crypto routines
627 of the openssl library rather than invoking the openssl command
629 o server/audiod: new option --user to switch to the given user
630 when invoked as root. Read the output of "para_server -h" for
632 o gui/sdl_gui: new option --stat_cmd to be used to retrieve the
633 status. Default: "para_audioc stat"
634 o sdl_gui: new option --pic_cmd to be used to download the picture.
635 Default: "para_client pic"
636 o audiod: 5 slots ought to be enough for everybody
637 o audiod: new status item: Uptime, kill hup command

681 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
682 After several month of increased development activity, paraslash-0.2.0
683 has arrived. It contains many new features and is much more
684 self-contained than the old 0.1.x series. Enjoy!
687 o para_server: fix hang on song change and crash on sighup.
688 Speed up mysql queries. The DIR_LIKE macro is gone.
689 o new executables: para_audiod, the local audio daemon that
690 starts playback (uses SCM_CREDENTIALS socket magic) and
691 para_audioc, the corresponding client.
692 o new executables: para_mp3dec/para_oggdec, two really teensy
693 decoders. para_mp3dec is based on libmad, para_oggdec requires
695 o ovsend/ovrecv are capable of streaming ogg as well as mp3, so
696 they are now called para_send and para_recv respectively.
697 o documentation updates
698 o para_gui is themable. For now there is the default theme that
699 looks as before and the simple theme: blue and easy.
700 o gui: audio streaming is now handled by audiod. Time display shows
701 playback time rather than streaming time
702 o slider: update to libzmw-0.2.0
703 o para_krell: fix crash on server shutdown
704 o switch from gzip to bzip2

750 0.1.7 (2005-04-18) "melting penetration"
751 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
752 The main change in this release is clearly the oggvorbis rewrite,
753 but there are also lots of smaller changes. If you intend to use both
754 the mp3 and the ogg plugin, it is recommended to use software mixing,
755 e.g. the dmix plugin which is provided by ALSA.
757 o new executables: para_ovsend and para_ovrecv for sending/receiving
758 oggvorbis files via rtp. Requires the open rtp library. Get it at
759 http://www.linphone.org/ortp/
760 o rewrite of the ogg_vorbis core code
761 o configure detects libzmw and, if detected, includes
762 para_slider to the list of binaries to be built by make
763 o server stream writers read from their associated fifo rather
765 o slider: two new sliders, lastplayed and numplayed
766 o fix nasty double free bug which caused random segfaults in case of
767 mp3 files with invalid header information
768 o gui: new command line option: --stream_timeout=seconds to
769 deactivate a slot if it is idle for that many seconds (default=`5')

800 0.1.6 (2005-03-05) "asymptotic balance"
801 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
802 Only little user-visible changes in this release. Mainly bugfixes and
803 core code cleanup. This is probably the most stable version ever if you
806 o fix several memory leaks
807 o rename default name of mysql database from "music" to "paraslash".
808 Use para_server's --mysql_database option if you do not want to
809 rename your old database.
810 o rework ogg vorbis code
811 o make update command work on mysql servers with LOCAL_INFILE
813 o gui: improved stream I/O (slots)
814 o simplified audio format API
815 o para_pob_ogg is gone
817 0.1.5 (2004-12-31) "opaque eternity"
818 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
819 Let's slide gently into the new year.
821 o new: para_slider (not built automatically, type "make
822 para_slider" to build). A toy for those who always felt that
823 creating stream definitions is difficult. See screenshots,
824 README and FEATURES for more info.
825 o improved signal handling. Fixes server segfault on SIGHUP
826 for linux kernels newer than Aug 24 2004 and makes para_gui
828 o reload database tool on SIGHUP
829 o improved help message for sl
830 o do not log "broken pipe" messages as errors. They are
832 o fix wrong error message on permission errors
834 0.1.4 (2004-12-19) "tunneling transition"
835 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
836 Bugfix release. As expected, 0.1.3 introduced a bunch of new bugs.
837 Hopefully, most of them got wiped out with this release. Some
838 enhancements went also in.
840 o improved error diagnostics for all commands
841 o stradd/picadd: overwrite previous contents if entry already
842 exists, rather than returning errors
843 o stradd: use current stream if invoked without args
844 o faster (and hopefully more stable) ogg-vorbis handling
845 o para_krell: reap children to avoid zombie-flooding in case
847 o si: report also server pid
848 o server: don't busy-loop if dbtool reports only invalid files.
849 o gui: CTRL+C works again, fix stream_read command line option
851 o fix mysql dbtool startup in case no database exists
852 o many small fixes and cleanups
854 0.1.3: (2004-12-10) "vanishing inertia"
855 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
856 Starting from this release, the database tools are integrated in the
857 server binary. This decreases server startup time, reduces code size
858 and speeds up database commands. However, the layout of the underlying
859 mysql database changed only slightly and 0.1.3 should be backwards
860 compatible in that respect.
864 o If mysql is not detected at compile time, or fails to init
865 at runtime, fall back to the dopey database tool which should
867 o para_dbtool and dbtool.conf are gone. All mysql specific
868 options are read from server.conf and are prefixed by 'mysql_'.
