Just uploaded Moose 0.60 to http://groups.google.com/group/moosenews and normal website.
Mainly been sorting out the cover chooser and thumbnail system. Oh, I've also added Pandora coverart support - let me know asap if this doesnt work as my pandora trial ends this friday.. Here's a full list of changes: * Cover Chooser - Text drawn for cover circles * Cover Chooser - Fixed spacing algorithm a bit to make things feel better * Cover Chooser - Scroll bar added and covers scroll off left and right when being un-shown * Cover Chooser - Fixed the context menu so it works * Cover Chooser - The hilighted item now clips correctly to the edges * Now Playing - Support added for Pandora album-art * Now Playing - Hopefully fixed issue with windows 2000 redraw of the playlist * Now Playing - Removed close and minimise buttons from title-bar and made minimise to tray the new closing option * Now Playing - un-minimising from tray correctly lays out the panels now * Networking - Tweaked the way moose talks to the server - hopefully this will cure some of the IP address issues * MySql - Tweaked the way the mysql connector connects to the database - hopefully this will cure some of the IP address issues * Thumbnail Scanning - Re-coded the way thumbnail scanning works. It's now a good idea to keep the 'Update Thumbnail cache after a rescan' option on - it'll be much quicker and recalculates the hues for the coverchooser from the cached thumbnails. * Thumbnail Scanning - Also now requests artwork from amazon if it's not on the server. A maximum of 50 albums are requested each scan to save swamping amazon. These 50 albums are chosen randomly on each scan and 100x100 jpgs stored in the thumbs folder. * Full screen mode - Menu hidden by default, but moving mouse to top of screen will show it * Touch screen mode - Fixed button positions and panel clipping problems - not fixed text/glyphs in buttons yet * Options - Now possible to disable tooltips (options->Now Playing tab) * Options - Greyed out the new connection code option since it causes CPU issues * Options - Added text about server IP * Added '\server=xx.xx.xx.xx', '\player=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx' and '\moofile=file.moo' command line options which allow moose to connect to a specified server/player * Probably other stuff..
