Nemp 5.1

New in Nemp 5.1

While the internal data structures have been heavily revised in version 5.0, they have so far remained the old ones in the web server. In version 5.1, the new data structures and their advantages are also used in the web server. The template system has also been heavily reworked and some new features have been added: For example, it is now possible to play files from the media library directly in the web browser via HTML5 audio.

In Nemp itself, the code for playing web radio has been reworked, and the support for audio CDs has been improved: The query of metadata now works again via the online CDDB and should be much faster than before.

In addition, there are some comfort features like a revised hint window, inserting an album into the playlist from the coverflow via double-click and displaying covers for the playlists in the media library. And one option that I myself have missed from time to time is now finally implemented as well: Crossfading between tracks can be disabled for live recordings.

Bug fixes

And last but not least, there is a whole series of bug fixes. Some bugs I could reproduce easily, others unfortunately not. For the latter I hope that they are fixed now by the changes in the code - but I can't be completely sure. Let me know if there are still problems!

Updating

Due to the changes to the web server, some existing files should be deleted. When installing via Setup.exe this should happen automatically. When using the portable zip version, Nemp will recommend to delete these files when starting the new version for the first time. Just click on "Delete files ..." - then Nemp will delete these files and everything will work as usual. Please don't be shocked by the large number of files that will be deleted there - they are really not needed anymore. ;-)
