One other thing that I lost track of in all this excitement-

Windows Phone 8.1 is now supported in the free preview version.

Short newsflash.

iOS6/7 playbacks creen ... context menu crash, fixed

WASAPI is being tested on Windows 10 and Windows Phone 8.1, looks good so far, reported audio quality issues should be gone as we do all resampling on our side and hand 48KHz signal to the system - or whatever sample rate the mixer runs at.
MOD files etc will be rendered at system's output sample rate with WASAPI enabled, no pointless resampling will be done.

No new builds this week, I'll put something up once WASAPI has been tested thoroughly.

Windows version update going up today, many bug fixes.

In particular, it seems at some point skin picking openfiledialog of the Windows 10 app vanished after code structure changes. This is pretty bad, I personally apologize anyone affected by this bug. This has been corrected and a fixed version will be arriving on your devices today.

[Peter]

1.0.27 / 1.0.28 going up, for all platforms.

Changes:

• All: Added playback order controls, shuffle and repeat modes
• All: Made the next track visible to the skin
• All: Grid album view is now text+image by default, image-only is opt-in
• All: Made duplicate tracks hidden by default when browsing
• All: Various utility advanced preferences options added
• All: Skin rendering bug fixes
• Windows: Added MMCSS, should no longer stutter under heavy CPU usage

Work in progress report:

Stop-after-current has been added.
Playback order options have been made controllable by skin buttons. Use "repeat", "shuffle", "stopaftercurrent" buttons in the skin to control them.

[Peter]

Version 1.0.29 / 1.0.30 is being prepated. Change list:

• Added stop after current feature
• Repeat / shuffle / stop after current are now accessible via skin elements; default skin provides shuffle/repeat controls
• Smarter shuffle vs non-repeat behavior when manually started playback from specific track
• Fixed DSP reordering bugs
• Implemented skin-controlled volume control; added fallback tools items for volume control since not every skin has a volume slider

There has been a slight messup with the new Windows version, but it was sighted by me shortly after posting the new update and has now been resolved.

If you're experiencing erratic behaviors while pausing, please update again.
