Release note for CDFSFiler 0.04 (beta)

Welcome to the fourth beta release of PEP Associates' CDFSFiler. It had been hoped that this release would, in actual fact, be the real product rather than another beta release. However, it has been discovered that using CDFSFiler with Cumana's SCSI II card causes serious system failure, so it was felt that it would be better to keep CDFSFiler at the beta stage until the problem can be resolved.

If you find any problems when using CDFSFiler, please email support@pep-assoc.co.uk, providing as much information as possible.

If you have any suggestions on features you'd like to see included, please feel free to email them to us as well and we'll add them to the list.

The current bug list and wish list can be found on our web site.

Beta-test expiry

This beta copy will now expire on the 1st of October. The installer will replace any licence keys installed by previous beta releases.

Audio disc catalogue

Please note that the algorithm used for the audio disc ID changed in the 2nd beta release to a public formula.

If you have created catalogue entries for any of your discs, loading the discs will cause the catalogue to be re-written with the new ID.

Support for the old ID algorithm will be removed in the final version of the product.

Bugs fixed

  • Some register corruption problems with the CD Audio Support module have been fixed.
  • Some problems with the database DLL not recognising all of the audio tracks has been fixed.

New features and other changes

  • There is an additional menu option from the play window, which leads to a submenu listing the track titles (or numbers if no titles are available). Choosing an entry causes that track to start playing.
  • In addition to dropping SmartCD catalogue files onto the play window, CDFSFiler will now accept text files that consist of a disc title string followed by a track title string for each track.
