beaTunes News

So, I hope this is the last non-final version I'm posting. As you might have noticed, it's not labeled Early Access anymore, but rather Release Candidate. As such, it does not automatically expire, but behaves like the real thing.

As always, there is some more info in the NOTES.txt file.

And here are the download links:

• beaTunes-3-5-0-RC1 (OS X 10.5.8 or later)
• beaTunes-3-5-0-RC1 (Windows XP or later)

Important

For those still using beaTunes 2: beaTunes 3.x changes beaTunes' internal database layout quite a bit, which takes a while. Do not interrupt this process, even if it takes very long! beaTunes 2.x will not be able to use the database anymore, after you ran beaTunes 3.x. If you intend to try 3.x and then go back to 2.x, make sure you back up the database before you try 3.x (depending on your OS it's in ~/Library/Application Support/beaTunes/Database, C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\tagtraum industries\beaTunes\database or C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\tagtraum industries\beaTunes\database)!

Feedback

Please provide feedback! Let me know what does not work. Especially audio decoding problems, OutOfMemoryErrors and UI hangs and hiccups.

Thanks.

PS: The update from 3.0 to 3.5 will be free.
