feature creep:
New channel plugins for Radionomy.com, Filtermusic.net, Delicast.com. Added Dirble channel again, using new API. Removed iCast plugin. Removed 8tracks plugin. Brought back Xiph XML extraction, and added direct website extraction, in addition to JSON cache mode. Add TV list for UbuntuUsers channel. Introduction of User Plugin Manager and channel module updating, automatic plugin activation, contrib plugins: PublicRadioFan, GLRP. Change Youtube plugin to use only v3 API henceforth. Minor fixes to action/playlist extraction, add specific JAMJ extractor. Update manual on new channel/feature plugins. Separated config and pluginconf modules. Fixes to contrib/ plugins: compound, file, punkcast. Scroll back to last category on initialization, simplified window and state storage.

2.1.727 Apr 2015 07:25
minor feature:
Experimental support for drag and drop, which allows playback, importing, or exporting stations from/to files. Configuration dialog became more clearly arranged by separating channels and feature plugins. More manual examples on recording configuration added. Several enhancements to playlist conversion, support for .desktop links, better heuristics, and working url+title extraction. All MOD files use generic audio/mod+zip MIME type. Use new and distinct /tmp/streamtuner2/ directory for cache+export. Implemented hashing for cached m3u/pls files. Support 'feeds' stream in Jamendo, more complete Ogg Vorbis support and JAMJSON extraction instead of using old v2 API. Initial startup and application state restoration became more robust, active category is tracked more dynamically. Some internal simplifications and code cleanup (logging simplified, more uikit wrappers for Gtk3, removed outdated PIL workaround, cleanup up remnant module descriptions). Statusbar is just a plain text label, automatically emptied. Disable partial stream refreshing, and threading per --nt flag or config option, because Gtk3 support is still flaky. Let gtk_idle callbacks run in order through an internal precedence spool. Browser invocations corrected. Crash in cache search fixed. PYZ building now supported by xpm and Packfile for custom adaptions.

Fixes for the bookmarks channel, cache search, plugin lookup code were applied. Startup is faster again, but plugins now initialize on selection first. Which makes the category association exacter after restarts. More code cleanup and restructuring, GUI updates, command line flag handling. Still a beta release.
