Here is the Release Candidate of Corripio 0.5. Please send any bugs so I can fix them before I release 0.5 Final. I had to hold back adding the new Tag Fixing features due to instability and the risk of messing up your songs. To get access to the new features drag out the new standard toolbar from the “customize toolbar” option.

New Features:

  • Ability to see artwork size when selecting artwork.
  • Preview artwork in separate window.
  • Search all artwork databases at once.
  • Skip Podcasts when fixing tags.
  • Lyrics.

    • Updated Preferences:
  • Set allowed filetypes to search for artwork.
  • Set words to keep lowercase when fixing tags.
  • Set symbols to remove when fixing tags.
  • Be prompted to approve and edit lyrics before saving.

    • Other:
  • Updated Help.
    •  Coming in 0.5 Final
  • Updated about panel.
  • New icon.

    • Bug Fixes:
  • Off by one error when multiple artwork is found. Causing 1 image to always be lost.
  • Artwork changes in info drawer when user presses arrows.
  • Artwork changes in info drawer when song artwork changes.
  • Extraneous results from Buy.com.
  • Walmart.com database fixed.
  • Infinite loop related to searching by artist in Coverallia.
  • Empty tags when searching for artwork.
  • Scroll arrows in artwork selection.
  • Removed “N/A” from searches.
  • Removed “N/A” when fixing tags.
  • Skipping fixed (RC 2)

    Last Day For Parallels $49.99 Deal

    Posted by Jeff Dlouhy on 07/15 at 07:49 AM

    Solaris 10

    Late last night I finally bought Parallels the virtual machine software for the Mac. Earlier this year I sold all my PCs to buy a new intel iMac leaving me with a iBook. The one thing that I had to part with was Linux. I have used boot camp on other Macs but it just runs poorly in my opinion. I waited off on buying Parallels because funds are short. Then I saw that the $30 discount ended on the 15th and bought it right away. If you have not purchased it, I highly recommend it if you need to run multiple operating systems. So far I have installed Windows and Solaris 10. Windows was a seamless install, whereas Solaris needed some tweaking. To install Solaris 10 I needed to use the text based installer and then edit the X11 config. You can purchase Parallels at http://www.parallels.com/ it’s truly worth it.

    New Things Coming In Corripio:

    Well so I have been putting a lot of work and features into the next release (0.5). The most noticeable enhancement is the new icon by Dale Taylor. It still may have a few more tweaks before I release it, however it’s pretty much it. I still do not plan to release 0.5 for another few weeks. This is going to be a very large release and from 0.6 to 1.0 will be mostly speed, memory and minor fix releases. In the next week I will be putting up a beta page where you can download the latest builds of our Apps.

    What’s Coming:

  • Sort by playlist
  • Large artwork view
  • Lyrics
  • Show artwork size
  • Better results
  • Revert to original tags
  • Much better tag fixing
  • Get missing info for song (Album, Track, Year, Composer, ect...)
  • User Interface Enhancements

    • Bugs Fixed:
  • Loss of last cover when mulit artwork found
  • Extraneous artwork from buy.com
  • Number of results
  • Infinite loop when using coveralia
  • Skip podcasts in tag fixing
  • Memory leaks associated with artwork

    Well today Cory (from teentechtalk) informed me that Corripio was in the August issue of Macworld. Cory was nice enough to post it on his Flickr account. I still have yet to see it in person, but I am told it’s on p64. All I can say is that I am very pleased smile . I’ll be sure to scan in the article once I get the issue.

    Update:
    I found it also in Playlist Magazine.
