Version 0.4 on the Android Market

[Brad Fitzpatrick]

Version 0.4 of Squeezer is now on the Market.

Changes since 0.3:

* grabs Wifi lock while playing, so android doesn't kill the wifi while
it's in your pocket at a dinner party and you want a check the song
name quickly.

* two new options: debug logging (default off) & notify-on-connection to
show you when a connection is active even if nothing's playing (default off).

* less memory allocations when ticking the play time, to make GC happen less.

* internal cleanups & more TODOs.

Not much different.

All looks good to me, Brad,

no problems found, thanks.

My top three RFEs at the moment would be:

1. Indication of player power status.

2. Ability to power player on/off

3. Ability to choose music :)

also, would it be possible for the notification status to indicate the
currently connected player, please?

thanks again.

cheers,
calum.

Oh, yeah. I saw this in the protocol but I didn't even know these
things could turn on & off! :) I should save some power.

Yeah, I'm doing all the easy stuff first. :-)

Well, you're connected to a server, not a player. But sure, I could
show the active player in the notification too. Good idea.... will
do!

I've filed all these in the bug tracker:

Feel free to add more!

:)

actually, it may not even save any power, but I do have a different
display configured for when in standby (time & weather), versus when
playing (song details).

yes of course, sorry, poorly worded.
