What's new

  • SHOW on the shelf. One button narrows the shelf to the albums you're after: the dusty ones, the ones still in their shrink-wrap, the ones you left part-way, the ones with a note, the ones never played, or one decade or genre. PULL ONE picks from what's shown.
  • Albums heard as albums. Start an album from its first song and stop part-way, and a ribbon bookmark sticks out of its spine; its case says CONTINUE · TRACK n. Play one to the end and the booklet's back cover counts it: "start to end ×2".
  • Moved music keeps its history. Moved your music to another folder or drive? The shelf finds the songs again and BRING THEIR HISTORY carries their plays, dust and HISTORY over.
  • BACKUP. Settings → LIBRARY → SAVE… keeps your queue, history, plays, notes, themes and settings in one .cdbackup file; RESTORE… puts them back on a new computer or after reinstalling.
  • PUT BACK THE ORIGINAL. The Tags panel remembers what a file's tags were before CDPlayer first changed them, and can put them back.

Changelog

New

  • Shelf SHOW filter: ALL, DUSTY, STILL WRAPPED, LEFT PART-WAY, WITH A NOTE, NEVER PLAYED, each decade and each genre on the shelf, with counts; lit while on, back to ALL at the next launch; PULL ONE pulls from the albums shown
  • Album runs: a ribbon bookmark on the spine of an album played in order from its first song and left after two songs or more (kept for two months), CONTINUE · TRACK n in its case; albums played start to end are counted on the booklet's back cover
  • Moved songs: songs that vanish from one folder and turn up in another are matched by the end of their path; BRING THEIR HISTORY moves their plays, dust and history, NOT THE SAME SONGS stops asking about that folder
  • BACKUP in Settings → LIBRARY: SAVE… / RESTORE… a .cdbackup file (no sign-ins, no caches); before restoring, what was there is copied into a before-restore folder
  • Tags panel: PUT BACK THE ORIGINAL, for files CDPlayer has written tags to (FIX TAGS, saved lyrics)

Fixed

  • The shelf's buttons go on to a second line when the window is too narrow for them: at the smallest window SORT, FOLDER… and CLOSE were off its edge (more so in Russian)

Changed

  • Play counts are kept for 100 000 songs instead of 5 000
  • HISTORY keeps songs from an unplugged drive instead of dropping them
  • The shelf reads each song's genre once after updating (one full re-read of the music folder)
