----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.84a Scott Sams <sbsams@eos.ncsu.edu> Added Preliminary CDDB support. No error checking or configurability yet. CDDB support is based on code from cccd, which IMHO had the nicest abstraction of the CDDB protocol from actual implementation. cccd was written by Sven Riedel<Sven.Riedel@heim8.tu-clausthal.de> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.85a Scott Sams <sbsams@eos.ncsu.edu> Fixed a few segfault bugs and increased size of track titles buffer. Added error checking via error_handler dialog boxes. Added a progress bar. FIXME: Still does not update correctly in the beginning and while connecting to server. Added Button for connecting to CDDB server. Added Notebook for configuring CDDB server and 2 new options - Convert Spaces to underscores, and Include artist name in file name. "Borrowd" CDDB icon from www.cddb.com and modified it using the Gimp. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.9b TeJun <wineking@adam.kaist.ac.kr> Changed the way CDDB displays its progress. Now it uses statusbar instead of separate progress window. Also the FIXME of V0.85a has been corrected. Changed the config read/write part such that it can handle older configuration files properly. Changed the way ripperX handles file names such that the names are kept after a ripping/encoding session. version number has been bumped up to 0.9b meaning it's a major release. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.95-devel1 Tejun <wineking@adam.kaist.ac.kr> Added support for plugin interface and cleaned up source code a little bit. Now ripperX deletes WAV file when a job is aborted. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.96 Scott Sams <sbsams@eos.ncsu.edu> Greatly simplified the select_frame_handler interface. Instead of having 2 tiny text boxes, there is one big textbox that will generate names for both the wav and the mp3 file. Took out the play buttons for playing the wav and mp3. I might put them back in, but I thought they cluttered the interface too much (and I never used them anyway). Made a radiobox for selecting the action (rip or encode). Wrote a plugin for the ISO encoder version 2 (the "encode" program). The default encoder is now this one. It is free and produces very good quality mp3s. All the plugins are now included in the plugins directory, instead of a separate package. They will be built and installed. Made a new logo for RipperX in the Gimp. :-) Fixed a bug for file names with spaces. The solution was to place double quotes around the commands in the config dialog. e.g. encode "%w" "%m" Allocated more space for buffers MAX_COMMAND_LENGTH, MAX_FILE_NAME_LENGTH, MAX_FILE_PATH_LENGTH and MAX_TITLE_LENGTH. For the next version, I will make some SRPMS of ripperX, cdparanoia, dcd and the ISO encoder. Incorporated patches from ripperX-0.9z and ripperX-0.9b-segfix2.diff and ripperX-0.9b-dk.diff. Added checkbutton for creating subdirectories. Made everything work with autoconf again. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.97 Scott Sams <sbsams@eos.ncsu.edu> Made ripperX work with newer versions of cdparanoia. Improved the parsing of cdparanoia -Q. Improved the reporting of cdparanoia's error messages. Fixed "Select All Tracks" button to have the correct behavior. Made SRPM and i386 RPMS of ripperX. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.98 Scott Sams <sbsams@eos.ncsu.edu> *NOTE* You must delete your old .ripperXrc file before trying this version! ** -HTTP Proxy for CDDB -Configuration panels for mp3 encoders and cdparanoia -Added format string for cddb file names -Changed default refresh from 5 seconds to 1 second -Permissions on created files fixed -Changed default values in config_rw.c (must delete old .ripperXrc) -Fixed the hang if you clicked on CDDB button while offline -Track number now in double digit format, e.g. Track 02 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.99 Scott Sams <sbsams@eos.ncsu.edu> *NOTE* You must delete your old .ripperXrc file before trying this version! ** -Plugin for the Lame mp3 encoder contributed by Justin Buist <buistjj@river.it.gvsu.edu> -Plugin for the BladeEnc mp3 encoder -Lame is now default encoder -Optionally generate an ID3 tag from CDDB information -Added more encoding options for all encoders: Variable bitrate High quality encoding CRC error protection -Added more encoding bitrates -Status popup window when ripping or encoding is finished -Fixes for CDs with more than 50 tracks -Fixed some cddb bugs -Convert Underscores now converts non-unix characters -Album subdirectory obeys convert underscores option -Reworked how encoder options are stored in config file -No longer need "%w" "%m" in extra options space ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 1.0 Scott Sams <sbsams@eos.ncsu.edu> -Added plugin for Xing Mp3 Encoder contributed by Derek Harding <derek@innovyx.com> -Added plugin for GoGo Mp3 Encoder contributed by Justin Buist <buistjj@river.it.gvsu.edu> -Added format string for the "create subdirectory" option -CDDB HTTP bugfix -Fix for plugins not picking up all options contributed by Alfred Weyers <alfred@otto.gia.RWTH-Aachen.DE> -Changed command line cd player from dcd to cdplay, since it comes with RedHat 6.0 -No longer writes files with non ASCII characters -Minor code cleanups TeJun <wineking@adam.kaist.ac.kr> -Plugged a HUGE memory leak Thanks to Steven Wilcoxon for the bug report! -Added locale support -Removed all compiler warnings Ralf Engels <engels@arcormail.de> -Patch for better error checking so files won't be deleted accidently ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 1.1 11/11/1999 Scott Sams <sbsams@eos.ncsu.edu> -Plugins for FHG Encoders (l3enc v 2.72 and mp3enc v3.1) -Workaround for l3enc not liking spaces in file names -Updated lame plugin for version 3.50 NOTE: You must upgrade to lame v3.50, as 3.13 will NOT work with this plugin. -Bug fix for GOGO Encoder.
