Version 1.4.2 of Amarok
Release Notes: New features include DAAP support for remote music sharing, Dynamic Collection (removable media support), and improved Last.fm streaming. Also, Amarok can now access MTP media devices, and is compatible with LibVisual 0.4 and LibTunePimp 0.5. Crossfading has been much improved, and many bugs have been fixed thanks to a code analysis from klocwork.com.
Other releases
Release Notes: This release brings a preliminary version of the Nepomuk Collection plug-in for storing track statistics and metadata, and statistics synchronization between collections and with Last.fm. The File Browser's behavior and appearance were greatly improved, and audio CD playback was resurrected (at least with recent phonon-gstreamer). A total of over 470 bugs were closed. There is a completely updated handbook.
Release Notes: While this version brings a reasonable set of new features, the focus was on bugfixing and improving overall stability. The new features are a complete overhaul of the iPod, iPad, and iPhone support, including solid support for device playlists, transcoding for iPod-like and USB Mass Storage devices, Free Music Chart service activated by default, embedded cover support for Ogg and FLAC files, and album art support for tracks on the filesystem and USB Mass Storage devices.
Release Notes: This release brings GPodder.net podcast synchronization, rewritten USB Mass Storage support, an integrated Amazon MP3 store, and many bugfixes to the iPod plugin.
Release Notes: The visual design was tweaked, removing the status bar at the bottom, and replacing it with more focused notifications up top, or where they make most sense. You’ll also see some nice new visual effects in the layout as well. The new Dynamic Playlist should be easier to understand. Some of the functionality changes are: a new AlbumPlay example playlist, a Quiz-play bias that will pick a song that starts with the same character the last one ended with, and preventing duplicate tracks. You will notice that you can now drag and drop on Collections, to copy or move within Local Music.
Release Notes: This version adds drag and drop in Collections. One can now configure the names of Podcast episodes. You now have the option to scrobble the composer as artist in Last.fm. Dynamic playlist has been updated to make it easier to understand. There are also a lot of bugfixes.
