Beta 3 and 4 for foobar2000 1.1.11 have been released a very short time apart. Repairs in these builds are based on telemetry data gathered from the second beta of the application, thanks to the freshly introduced deadlock detection feature.

In Foobar2000 beta 3 the developer focused on fixing up user interface responsiveness, thanks to the crash reports sent by the users.

Beta 4 of the application popped up briefly after beta 4 as some serious issues had been signaled, again, through crash reports. The alarm was set off by a number of 15 foobar2000 enthusiasts that led to the detection of a major stability problem, which should be fixed at the moment according to the developer.

The full list of changes operated in foobar2000 1.1.11 is available on this page. You can download the application from here.
