Version 2.2.3 (Work in progress -- not a release yet.)
-----
* NOTE: all the metadata stuff has been moved to branch 2.3 -- the development. This will become the 'stable' branch henceforward, with just bug fixes or minor enhancements. Apologies for the inconvenience.
* Bugfix
* Modify the init script to start after all services are ready. Add in a commented-out sleep command if users find it necessary (thanks to https://github.com/BNoiZe).
* Two memory leaks fixed.
* An error handling time specifications for flushes was causing an audible glitch when pausing and resuming some tracks. This has been fixed (thanks to https://github.com/Hamster128).
* Enhancement
* A very experimental metadata feed has been added. Use the option `-M <pipe-directory>`, e.g. `-M /tmp`. Shairport Sync will provide metadata in a pipe called `<pipe-directory>/shairport-sync-metadata`. There's a sample metadata reader at https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync-metadata-reader. The format of the metadata is a mixture of XML-style tags, 4-character codes and base64 data. Please look at `rtsp.c` and `player.c` for examples. Please note that the format of the metadata may change.
Beware: there appears to be a serious bug in iTunes, such that it may stall for a long period when sending large (more than a few hundred kilobytes) coverart images.
Version 2.2.2
