This change log is used to track all major changes to Mopidy.
0.1.0a3 (unreleased)
====================
We got an updated :doc:`release roadmap <development/roadmap>`!
**Changes**
- MPD frontend:
- Support IPv6.
- ``addid`` responds properly on errors instead of crashing.
- ``commands`` support, which makes RelaXXPlayer work with Mopidy. (Fixes:
GH-6)
- Does no longer crash on invalid data, i.e. non-UTF-8 data.
- ``ACK`` error messages are now MPD-compliant, which should make clients
handle errors from Mopidy better.
- Requests to existing commands with wrong arguments are no longer reported
as unknown commands.
- ``command_list_end`` before ``command_list_start`` now returns unknown
command error instead of crashing.
- Backend API:
- :meth:`mopidy.backends.BaseCurrentPlaylistController.load()` now accepts
lists of :class:`mopidy.models.Track` instead of
:class:`mopidy.models.Playlist`, as none of the other fields on the
``Playlist`` model was in use.
0.1.0a2 (2010-06-02)
====================
It has been a rather slow month for Mopidy, but we would like to keep up with
the established pace of at least a release per month.
**Changes**
- Improvements to MPD protocol handling, making Mopidy work much better with a
group of clients, including ncmpc, MPoD, and Theremin.
- New command line flag ``--dump`` for dumping debug log to ``dump.log`` in the
current directory.
- New setting :attr:`mopidy.settings.MIXER_ALSA_CONTROL` for forcing what ALSA
control :class:`mopidy.mixers.alsa.AlsaMixer` should use.
0.1.0a1 (2010-05-04)
====================
Since the previous release Mopidy has seen about 300 commits, more than 200 new
tests, a libspotify release, and major feature additions to Spotify. The new
releases from Spotify have lead to updates to our dependencies, and also to new
bugs in Mopidy. Thus, this is primarily a bugfix release, even though the not
yet finished work on a Gstreamer backend have been merged.
All users are recommended to upgrade to 0.1.0a1, and should at the same time
ensure that they have the latest versions of our dependencies: Despotify r508
if you are using DespotifyBackend, and pyspotify 1.1 with libspotify 0.0.4 if
you are using LibspotifyBackend.
As always, report problems at our IRC channel or our issue tracker. Thanks!
**Changes**
- Backend API changes:
- Removed ``backend.playback.volume`` wrapper. Use ``backend.mixer.volume``
directly.
- Renamed ``backend.playback.playlist_position`` to
``current_playlist_position`` to match naming of ``current_track``.
- Replaced ``get_by_id()`` with a more flexible ``get(**criteria)``.
- Merged the ``gstreamer`` branch from Thomas Adamcik:
- More than 200 new tests, and thus several bugfixes to existing code.
- Several new generic features, like shuffle, consume, and playlist repeat.
(Fixes: GH-3)
- **[Work in Progress]** A new backend for playing music from a local music
archive using the Gstreamer library.
- Made :class:`mopidy.mixers.alsa.AlsaMixer` work on machines without a mixer
named "Master".
- Make :class:`mopidy.backends.DespotifyBackend` ignore local files in
playlists (feature added in Spotify 0.4.3). Reported by Richard Haugen Olsen.
- And much more.
0.1.0a0 (2010-03-27)
====================
"*Release early. Release often. Listen to your customers.*" wrote Eric S.
Raymond in *The Cathedral and the Bazaar*.
Three months of development should be more than enough. We have more to do, but
Mopidy is working and usable. 0.1.0a0 is an alpha release, which basicly means
we will still change APIs, add features, etc. before the final 0.1.0 release.
But the software is usable as is, so we release it. Please give it a try and
give us feedback, either at our IRC channel or through the `issue tracker
<http://github.com/jodal/mopidy/issues>`_. Thanks!
**Changes**
- Initial version. No changelog available.
