Changes in 0.3.0, (SVN trunk):
* The original author, Ed Zaleski, hands over ezstream maintainership to
Moritz Grimm.
* New features:
- Playlist shuffling support, enabled via the new <shuffle> configuration
option.
- Add feature to skip the currently streaming track, done by sending the
SIGUSR1 signal to the ezstream process.
- New command line option `-q': Suppress standard error output from external
de-/encoders.
- New command line option `-v': Produce more verbose output.
- New "real-time" status display of the stream when both -q and -v are given
on the command line.
- Thorough configuration file checks with helpful error messages.
- The @M@ metadata placeholder is now supported in <decode>.
* Fixes:
- At least one stack and one heap overflow have been fixed.
- Several memory leaks have been fixed.
- Strict checking of the configuration file prevents unexpected behavior and
adds another safeguard to prevent crashes.
- Fixed and more portable signal handling.
* Miscellaneous, user-visible changes:
- Improved documentation. Ezstream now has a comprehensive man page and the
README file has been rewritten.
- Consistency improvements in the configuration examples. The examples are
now also installed.
- The <format/> and <match/> configuration elements, as well as filename
extension matching to detect playlists in the <filename> element, are
now case insensitive.
- Various improvements in the build system and portability fixes.
- Consistent and more helpful messages from ezstream. By default, ezstream
no longer clutters the screen with lots of output (some information that
used to be available needs to be enabled with the new `-v' command line
parameter.)
- Tweaked metadata string generation: no more lone " - " dashes at the
beginning or end of the string.
