even trying to remember them all and list them here.. but market page should have a few.</p> <p>in a nutshell, this release is based on deadbeef 0.5.1 codebase, with few android-specific tweaks here and there, plus completely new gui, new EQ, etc.</p> <p>ad-free version should be coming soon.</p> <p>right now, the free version 1.0.0 (with ads) is almost unrestricted, except there's no widget, and there are few admob banners -- "pro" version will remove banners, and will add widget. that's basically it for now.</p> <p>few tricks:</p> <ul> <li>to show track properties -- touch album cover.</li> <li>to play shoutcast/icecast stream -- use "Add Location" from menu, or launch pls/m3u playlist after downloading it. i couldn't figure out how to launch directly from browser.</li> </ul> <p>other stuff should be mostly self-explanatory, but feel free to ask questions here.</p> <p>have fun!</p> <br/><a href="http://flattr.com/thing/62599/deadbeef-music-player-for-linux" _target="blank"><img

apgcc (from autopackage) doesn't work correctly with 64bit libs. that means, there won't be 64 bit static build in the nearest future - so if you have 64 bit system, there are following choices:</p> <ul> <li>build it yourself</li> <li>use 32bit version (it should work if 32 bit versions of libgtk2, libalsa, glibc are installed)</li> <li>wait for packages for your distribution</li> </ul> <h3>some important information</h3> <p>if you are building from tarball, and wondering where are the aosdk, DUMB, shn and some other plugins -- they are not there :) they were moved out of tarball to get the player into linux distributions with strict licensing policies, where they want clean tarballs, without any traces of code that's not GPL licensed.</p> <p>but plugins are still in git, and they are in the static build archive. i will also prepare them as separate downloads a bit later.</p> <h3>changelog</h3> <p>posting "full" changelog since 0.4.4 here (extracted from ChangeLog file found in the tarball):</p> <ul> <li>added support for multichannel output</li> <li>added support for output in 8,24,32,float32 bits per sample formats</li> <li>improved replaygain support, with new options</li>
