Fri Mar 29 13:00:00 2013 kkaempfAATTsuse.com
- Update to version 2.0.3
Bug fixes

* General
- Crash using Undo whilst time-shifting a track.
- Crash using Repair if the selection extended into an empty track.
- Export Multiple didn\'t prevent export if there was no audio or all
audio was muted. This allowed export of small invalid files.

* Time Track
- Loop Play of a speeded-up track inserted silence.
- Playback and rendering was significantly inaccurate, creating audible
and visual glitches.

* Accessibility
- The mnemonics character \"&\" was read out by screen readers in most of
the Preferences choices.
- NVDA did not read static text in most dialogs. Text can now be read by
using INSERT + B.
- JAWS and Window-eyes misread the \"Duration\" control in Silence
Generator.
- Toolbar buttons could not be pressed by ENTER
- Other interface bug fixes.
Changes and Improvements

* Resampling
- The SoX Resampler library (libsoxr) has replaced libresample in
Audacity releases, offering both higher quality and greater speed.

* Time Tracks new features
- \"Set Range\" now changes only the range of the Time Track, preserving
the pitch/speed set by any existing warp points.
- Vertical scale added with options for linear and logarithmic display
and interpolation.
- Upper and lower speed limits will now be remembered when saving and
reopening a project in 2.0.3. Warp points in projects saved by
previous Audacity versions will be correctly restored in 2.0.3.
- Warp points saved in a 2.0.3 project will be preserved if opened in
previous versions but playback and display will be incorrect.

* New effects
- Studio Fade Out (uses a filtered \"S\" curve).
- Adjustable Fade (accessible effect for creating partial fades and
adjustable fade shapes).
- Bass and Treble (replaces Bass Boost).

* General
- Real sample rates up to 384000 Hz are now supported for playback and
recording in high resolution devices (the maximum is up to 192000 Hz
for Windows DirectSound host).
- Labeled Regions in Edit Menu is renamed to \"Labeled Audio\" and now
allows splits to be placed at point labels. Labeled audio regions that
touch without overlapping are treated as separate regions. Overlapping
labeled audio regions are treated as a single region.
- New Croatian translation of Audacity.

* Compilation
- CMake is required in order to build libsoxr.
- removed audacity-implicit.patch and audacity-2.0.2-docdir.patch
both included in 2.0.3

Mon Oct 22 14:00:00 2012 uliAATTsuse.de
- explicitly disable SSE on non-x86 architectures (fixes ARM,
probably others)

Thu Aug 30 14:00:00 2012 reddwarfAATTopensuse.org

- Add %icon_theme_cache_post, %mime_database_post and %desktop_database_post to %post
- Recommend libmp3lame0, libavformat52, libavcodec52 and libavutil50

Wed Mar 14 13:00:00 2012 reddwarfAATTopensuse.org
- Update to version 2.0.0

* Bug fixes for:
- Interface:
- Fixed playback speed and synchronization problems when dragging
clips or tracks between tracks having different sample rates.
- Imports and Exports:
- Fixed crashes when changing the sample format of read-directly WAV
or AIFF files using the Track Drop-Down Menu.
- Fixed a crash importing MP3 files that had duplicate metadata tags
(this is a bug in current libsndfile which has been patched in
Audacity; MP3 files mislabeled as WAV which have duplicate tags
will still crash Audacity on Linux if Audacity has been compiled
against an affected version of system libsndfile).
- Fixed an issue where excessively high or corrupted sample values in
the audio could corrupt exports from the start of the problem for
the rest of the file, and could corrupt the rest of the project.
- Fixed Audacity could not be compiled against FFmpeg
0.7.x and 0.8.x.
- Effects and Analysis:
- Fixed crash on launch when using \"Ambisonic Decoders (PC)\" VST
plug-ins and other plug-ins that enable additional floating point
exceptions.
- Fixed Plot Spectrum background could be transparent on some machines.
- Bug fixes for Click Track, High Pass, Low Pass and Vocal Remover.
- Chirp, Tone and Silence generators now remember their settings.
- Other miscellaneous bug fixes.

* Changes and Improvements:
- New Interface preference to show the track name in the display (this
is off by default).
- Longer default Playback preference for effects preview and preview
before cut.
- Restored use of Page Up and Page Down to scroll horizontally.

Mon Dec 19 13:00:00 2011 detlefAATTlinks2linux.de
- Update to version 1.3.14

* Bug fixes for:
- Interface:
- Excessive delay occurred when typing into labels in long projects.
- Last digit of TimeText controls could not be manipulated in some formats.
- (Windows, OS X) Play and Record shortcuts did not work after clicking in
Device Toolbar.
- (OS X, Linux) Crash occurred if Toolbars were reset during playback or
recording.
- Imports and Exports:
- MP2 files were not importable without FFmpeg library or an import rule.
- Files that could only be imported using FFmpeg imported as noise with
no error message if FFmpeg was not available.
- Files containing PCM audio but an incorrect extension (such as MP3)
caused a freeze.
- Effects and Analysis:
- An empty command could be added to a Chain which then displayed a
Nyquist error message when run.
- Plot Spectrum didn\'t preserve signal level if multiple tracks were
analyzed.
- Other bug fixes:
- Audacity has been provisionally fixed so that it can no longer create
block files longer than the sample format or project format allows,
and can no longer delete these, which led to data loss. Any overlong
blocks found are preserved but \"orphaned\", so will appear as silence.
- Orphan block files were wrongly reported if cutting or copying to
the clipboard then reopening the project in the same session.
- Fixed some crashes and incorrect movement of audio when dragging tracks.
- (Windows) Data loss is now prevented when encountering a corrupted
.aup file created in ANSI builds.
- (Linux) Restore building if USE_PORTMIXER is not defined.

* Changes and Improvements:
- Normalize: Faster processing and improved interface. Left-right balance
in unsplit stereo tracks is now preserved by default, with a checkbox
option provided to process stereo channels independently.
- Spectrograms now allow window sizes up to 32768 and frequencies up to
half the sample rate (the maximum possible).
- Mix and Render now preserves clip length by not rendering white space
between time zero and first audio, and preserves audio before time zero.
To retain silence before the audio starts, generate silence after render.
- Grouped some Edit Menu items into \"Remove Audio\" and \"Clip Boundaries\".
- CleanSpeech Mode removed from Interface Preferences (it still runs if it
was enabled in a previous Audacity but can only be turned off there).
- (OS X) Added support for AudioUnit MusicEffects (but no MIDI support).
- (Linux) Set the per-user files directory per the program name set in
configure.
- (Linux) Changed the default location of the Audacity temporary directory
to be in /var/tmp not /tmp, so preserving the directory between reboots.

Sat Sep 17 14:00:00 2011 jengelhAATTmedozas.de
