Release Notes: Final GUI optimizations and several fixes were made. A count-down timer and timer OSD has been added. The playlist will be cleared when a URL is dropped into the video window or passed by command line (Konqueror|Open With...). It's now possible to shut off the monitor and/or quit after playback. When a subtitle file is opened or dropped, a dialog box asks for the movie it belongs to. Garbage characters in titles have been fixed, as well as a crash after changing the audio driver and (un)muting arts-driver.


Release Notes: Toolbars/Statusbar settings are now restored correctly. Single letters are allowed for shortcuts. The playlist is undockable (in a separate window). Its possible to select an alternate font encoding for meta tags. A buffer overflow vulnerability has been fixed (it was possible to crash Kaffeine with specially-crafted RealAudio playlists). The ARTS driver works again (it was muted). The frame border that was visible in fullscreen mode has been removed. Titles are now shown correctly (sometimes, there were squares instead of characters). This release autoresizes to the original/double/triple size of the video.


Release Notes: The GUI was completely redesigned, and a lot of code rewritten. This release is a single window application and comes with common KDE look and feel, like configurable toolbars, statusbar, etc. The improved playlist and the new start screen are embedded as tabs for fast access to most important media sources. The shell application is able to use different player parts. Currently only the kaffeine part, based on XINE, is fully supported. New features include: a queue mode; network transparency via KIO; mute, fast forward, and slot motion; support for XINE's audio post plugins; and much more.

This release uses the software audio mixer by default. The video settings dialog and equalizer are non-modal now. The Mozilla starter plugin was moved into a separate package.


Release Notes: A crash that occurred on closing with XFree 4.4 was finally fixed. A security vulnerability in the Mozilla starter plugin was fixed, and the tvtime plugin is now used for deinterlacing. Incremental playlist search was implemented, and all of the shortcuts were made configurable. The Mozilla plugin and kpart can now handle Microsoft media streams better.


Release Notes: A lot of work on stability was done. Many bugfixes were made. All meta information is now read on loading. Support for multiple subtitle files was added. DVD menu navigation can be done with the arrow keys and the enter key. An auto resize feature was added. The playlist status bar shows the total entries and total playtime.
