Gisteren is er na lange tijd van stilte een nieuwe versie van Monkey's Audio uitgekomen. Met dit programma kunnen geluidsbestanden worden gecomprimeerd. In tegenstelling tot bij voorbeeld mp3 of aac, gaat het hier om een lossless formaat, dus er gaat geen data verloren tijdens het comprimeren. Hoewel de software als freeware uitgebracht wordt en de compressie erg efficiënt is, is het nooit echt populair geworden. Een van de reden hiervoor is dat Monkey's Audio propriëtaire software is. Daarnaast is er nauwelijks ondersteuning voor buiten het Windows-platform. Hieronder zijn alle veranderingen te vinden die in het programma zijn aangebracht sinds de vorige vermelding in de Meuktracker:
Version 4.02 (January 19, 2009)Version 4.01b2 (February 17, 2006)
- NEW: Includes Directshow filter for decoding APE files in any DirectShow compatible player like Windows Media Player, Zoom, etc.
- Fixed: Corrupt APE files could cause decoder crashes in rare cases.
- Changed: Updated builder that gets better compression, making for a smaller download.
Version 4.01b1 (January 8, 2006)
- Fixed: File > Exit would not close the program.
- Fixed: Typo on the options dialog "Leave source file intact" option.
- Fixed: APX files that weren't NULL terminated could cause a crash.
- Fixed: Files that were skipped would show "Error" instead of "Skipped" in the status column.
- Changed: Improved the error reporting in the status column after a failure.
- Fixed: Possible small memory leak (100 bytes) on missing file decompression / conversion errors.
- Changed: Increased the statusbar size to better hold batches of 100+ GBs of files.
- Changed: The file list will scroll to show newly started files during processing.
- Fixed: Adding or removing files from the file list is no longer allowed during processing.
- Changed: Pausing processing no longer distorts the time estimation.
- Fixed: Some operations would not pause properly. (external encoders, etc.)
- Fixed: The list control would flicker more than necessary when working with long lists of files.
- NEW: Features new user interface. (written in C++ and threaded for dual-core computers -- making it nearly twice as fast to compress, decompress, and convert with a dual-core setup)
- NEW: New interface supports external codecs using simple XML configuration scripts.
- Changed: MACDll.dll is unified to include SDK, Winamp, and CoolEdit support in one component.
- Fixed: Corrupt / invalid APEv2 tags could cause problems in some cases.
- Fixed: APL creation could use track boundaries that were off by 1/44100th of a second in some cases.
- Fixed: APL creation would not properly report errors when the CUE file didn't point to an existing APE file.
- Fixed: In very rare cases, decoding an old APE file could cause an invalid decompression error.
- Fixed: When converting from APE -> APE, the APEv2 tag could get appended as WAV data to the new file. (instead of as a file tag)
