• new: WMP Tag Plus 2.1 + filters – аддон для Windows Media Player 11 и старше, позволяющий добавлять в библиотеку и просматривать метаданные аудиофайлов FLAC, OGG, APE (Monkey's Audio), MPC (Musepack), WV (WavPack). Для добавления вохможности воспроизводить файлы данных форматов необходиму установить соответствующие фильтры. Единственное что – пока не удалось заставить работать прокрутку MPC и чтение APE тегов.


• update: foobar2000 by Audiophile 1.1.13r2 (сборка) - обновлены плагины, добавлены MSVC DLL для QAAC и foo_dsp_midside, добавлена папка с иконками кнопок, исправлены мелкие недочеты. Кстати, должен сообщить, что в последнее время foobar2000 очень жестко интегрируется в систему при установке, что затрудняет работу сторонних сборок. Потому, если у Вас в системе уже установлен foobar2000, поместите сборку в удобное место и установите поверх неё последнюю версию плеера в режиме «стандарт» – дабы не иметь проблем с ассоциациями и запуском внешних скриптов.

  Updated libsoxrate to 0.21 (merged upstream update on SoX rate effect).
  Fixed not to write WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE header unnecessarily on WAV output.
  
  
  release 1.37
  Allow optional argument on --compilation. Now --compilation=1 is the same as --compilation, and --compilation=0 is the same as not setting --compilation option.
  
  --compilation=0|1 style will be suited for placeholder and scripting.
