The directory structure and file names on disk are now + human-readable. This means you can easily find files using your file browser on your + server. + + * Magic file synchronization. Edits to your files are automatically noticed by Airtime. If + you edit any files on disk, such as trimming the length of a track, Airtime will + automatically notice this and adjust the playlist lengths and shows for that audio file. + + * Auto-import and multiple-directory support. You can set any number of directories to be + watched by Airtime. Any new files you add to watched directories will be automatically + imported into Airtime, and any deleted files will be automatically removed. + + * Graceful recovery from reboot. If the playout engine starts up and detects that a show + should be playing at the current time, it will skip to the right point in the track and + start playing. Previously, Airtime would not play anything until the next show started. + This also fixes a problem where the metadata on the stream was lost when a file had + cue-in/out values set. Thanks to the Liquidsoap developers for implementing the ability + to do all of this! + + * Output to Shoutcast. Now both Shoutcast and Icecast are supported. + + * No more rebooting after install! Airtime now uses standard SystemV initd scripts instead of + non-standard daemontools. This also makes for a much faster install. + + * Extensible daemon monitoring system. The tool "monit" is being used to monitor the + daemon processes(playout engine, media monitor, etc) and automatically restart them in the + unlikely event that a daemon crashes. It also allows you to easily add your own actions when + something happens with a daemon. For example, you could send yourself an email notification if + a daemon process dies. + +Improvements: + * Cumulative time shown on playlists. The Playlist Builder now shows the total time since + the beginning of the playlist for each song. + + * "End Time" instead of "Duration". In the Add/Edit Show dialog, we replaced the "Duration" + field with "End Time". Users reported that this was a much more intuitive way to schedule the + show. Duration is still shown as a read-only field. + + * Feedback & promotion system. Airtime now includes a way to send feedback and promote your + site on the Sourcefabric web page. This will greatly enhance our ability to understand who is + using the software, which in turn will allow us to make appropriate features and receive grant + funding. + +Bug fixes: + * Fixed bug where you couldnt import a file with a name longer than 255 characters. + * Fixed bug where searching an audio archive of 15K+ files was slow. + + +1.8.2 - June 8, 2011 Highlights: * Improvements: - You can now download audio files from the search screen and from the "Show Content" screen. @@ -23,7 +75,8 @@ Highlights: - Fixed problem with Record Check box occasionally being greyed-out when creating new show - Fixed a problem with default genre not being applied to recorded shows - Fixed a problem where shows repeating bi-weekly or monthly did not update properly when edited. - + - Fixed problem when a user changed the name of a recorded show right before it started playing would cause the recorded audio not to be linked to the show. + - and many more... 1.8.1 - May 2, 2011 * Fixed issue where an track's progress bar would keep updating, even if the track was no longer playing.
