MPoD version 1.4 is available from the AppStore. New features and fixes in this release:

Directly browse the mpd structure. This was the most requested feature for MPoD. As result you now have to option to either use the local cache, or get data directly from the server.
Use local cover art that is shared through http. By sharing your music folder on the MPD server over http, MPoD can pick up cover art from the folder of the currently playing track. This is in addition to the Amazon based cover art;
Improved streaming (on-the-go mode) through the use of the RadioKit SDK from Stormy Productions. Stopping and pausing of a stream works better, plus there is visual feedback on when MPoD is connecting/buffering;
Simplified streaming settings;
Show information on current bitrate;
Fix cover art problems for timezones far away from GMT;
Some small bugfixes.

MPoD v1.4 – unexpected problems

Berrie — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 20:39:52 +0000

Functionality wise v1.4 of MPoD is ready. This version has 3 major improvements:

use local cover art that is shared through http;
directly browse the mpd structure;
improved streaming (on-the-go mode).

Unfortunately the move I made to SDK 3.0 has made the application unstable, and it crashes a lot all of sudden, looks like its due to memory shortage. I’m thinking about how to handle this, but it at least means that it will take more time before the 1.4 version can be released.

Ritmeester goes mobile

Today version 1.1 of Ritmeester has been released. In the Netherlands, when you have a lease-car the tax authorities will add up to 25% of the car value to your gross salary. If you use your car for personal travel less than 500 kilometers per year, you can get a ‘Verklaring geen privé gebruik’ from the tax authorities. Condition is that you maintain detail records of all car travel. RitMeester is the first Mac based program that helps you to keep a detailed and consistent administration, with minimum effort. Further description is in dutch.

Deze versie bereidt Ritmeester voor op synchronisatie met de iPhone client, die binnenkort als gratis download via de AppStore beschikbaar zal zijn. Hiermee kan je onderweg je ritten bijhouden, om ze vervolgens met een druk op de knop draadloos te synchroniseren met Ritmeester op de Mac. Daarmee behoren briefjes om de kilometerstanden bij te houden en vergeten standen tot het verleden.

Daarnaast biedt deze versie een tweetal kleine uitbreidingen die het invoeren van gegevens nog eenvoudiger maken:

Via de nieuwe knop ‘terugrit’ kan je nog een terugrit aanmaken voor de laatste rit, waarbij alle relevante info al is ingevuld.
De invoervelden voor adres, plaats en route bieden nu autocompletion op basis van eerdere gegevens. Wanneer er bv eerder ritten naar Amsterdam en Amstelveen zijn ingevoerd, verschijnt na het intypen van ‘Am’ een lijstje met deze twee plaatsnamen waaruit dan gekozen kan worden.

De download van versie 1.1 is per direct beschikbaar, zoals gebruikelijk is deze upgrade gratis voor gebruikers die Ritmeester al aangeschaft hebben.
