What's new in FFSoX Player 0.6.1
Mar 18, 2013
- Provided a switch to enable the "steep filter" for the SoX resampler.
- Disabled editing all drop down boxes except "replay gain mode" and "phase response" for the SoX resampler.
- Accepted input for the "replay gain mode" is 0..100.
- Accepted input for the "phase response" is 0..100.
New in FFSoX Player 0.6.0 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Provided the Secret Rabbit Code (SRC) resampler as an alternative to the SoX resampler.
- Please note that the SRC resampler takes a lot of CPU compared to the SoX resampler.
New in FFSoX Player 0.5.0 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Allow for applying intermediate replay gain values between album gain (0%) and track gain (100%)
- Rewritten and reactivated the FFmpeg adapters for "libmad.dll" and "liba52.dll".
- Fixed a memory leak.
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.9-2 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Made it compatible with the latest FFmpeg version.
- Requires "avutil-52.dll".
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.9 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Looking up "in_ffsox.ini" as described by "DrO" at WA forum:
- use IPC_GETINIDIRECTORY(W) from wa_ipc.h and then append \Plugins\in_ffsox to get the correct location - that api has been around since 2.9x
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.8 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Upgraded to new SoX 14.4.0.
- Restructured build process for the tool chain.
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.7 (Mar 18, 2013)
- According to FFmpeg.org: FFmpeg development has gone into OVERDRIVE. As a consequence the FFSoX Player plugin wasn't compiling any longer using the latest FFmpeg versions. This release ports the FFSoX Player plugin to the latest FFmpeg API.
- Video synchronization has been greatly improved by replacing heuristics with a call to av_opt_ptr(avcodec_get_frame_class(), frame, "best_effort_timestamp");
- This release requires "avformat-54.dll" and "avcodec-54.dll", and is now again in line with the latest FFmpeg builds from http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/win32/shared/ (cf. installation below.)
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.6.7 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Unicode support for file and directory names.
- Unicode support for metadata.
- Option "SoX Decoder" removed.
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.6.6 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Provided the option "Force Seek" in order to allow for seeking without any test whether seeking is supported by a format or not.
- NOTE: If checked and a particular format doesn't support seeking the behaviour is undefined.
- Provided the option "Prefer Float" for switching on/off 32 bit floating point decoders for lossy codecs.
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.6.5 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Enables 32 bit float format for e.g. MP3, AC3 and other lossy audio codecs.
- Enables (and requires) usage of "swscale-2.dll".
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.6.4 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Important: Requires "bumped" FFmpeg, i.e. "avformat-53.dll", "avcodec-53.dll", and "avutil-51.dll". For upgrading to the latest full FFmpeg build (cf. installation below) get the respective DDLs from http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/win32/shared/
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.6 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Support for integrated playback of EBU R128 compliant tagged and classical ReplayGain compliant tagged audio is added.
- In order to avoid clipping during up-sampling it is now by defualt the first effect in the chain if the resulting gain is an amplification, or the last effect in the chain if the resulting gain is an attenuation.
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.5 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Fixed mapping tags (under certain circumstances "Album Artist" where not properly mapped or could mask "Album").
- Fixed playing mono.
- Changed suggestion when to use "multiple integer" mode for up-sampling.
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.4 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Changed order of applying the replay gain and resampling effects. Resampling is now the first effect.
- The stereo (2.0) audio stream is preferred over any other audio stream.
- Added an "Objectives" section to the documentation (currently only with respect to audio processing).
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.3 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Fixed reading metadata from OGG/Vorbis
- Fixed Musepack SV7 and SV8 formats crashing at the end of a track
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.2 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Fixed seeking OGG.
- Verified that sreaming (e.g. via HTTP) is supported. For streaming "SoX decoder" in preferences should be switched off.
New in FFSoX Player 0.4.1 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Support for "avcore-0.dll" (new FFmpeg library, c.f. also how to install FFmpeg from third party sites below).
- Resolved some video synchronization issues.
- Switch on/off SoX decoders via configuration.
New in FFSoX Player 0.4 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Enabled seeking (depends on whether the corresponding FFmpeg format supports it).
- Made switching on/off the gain effect's limiter available in configuration dialog.
- Resolved some issues which caused the plug-in to crash in case of unsupported codecs.
New in FFSoX Player 0.3 (Mar 18, 2013)
- Added extended resampling support in response to an according feature request (see also resampling below)
- Added a chapter describing SoX configuration to the documentation
