• Fixed bug that caused shareware reminders to appear even after registration.
• Improved reliability of auto-eject at end of program option. On some systems this was not working correctly in some circumstances.
1.4.0 November 25, 1996
• PopupCD now includes DisplayCD, a status display/clock module for the Control Strip.
• Added hooks for DisplayCD.
• Added 'Turn off repeat on eject' option to PopupCD control panel Prefs. This option allows you to set repeat mode, and have it remain on for all CDs.
• Added option in control panel to bypass the startup warning alert if no CD-ROM driver is detected. This is mostly for PowerBook users who do not always have a CD-ROM attached.
• Switched the locations of the "Auto-eject at end of program" and "Eject at shutdown" options. The auto-eject option in the main control panel now controls the program-end eject option, and the "Eject CD at shutdown" option is now in the Preferences dialog.
• The auto-play option now works only on insertion of a CD, not at start-up.
• The default for "Audible button clicks" in Preferences is now off.
1.3.3 June 23, 1996
• Modified eject command to allow ejecting of CD-ROM discs (as in the Finder, all files on the CD-ROM must be closed, otherwise the command will not work). This option can be turned off in Preferences.
• Fixed a minor problem that would cause key commands to be disabled after switching discs from a CD-ROM to an audio CD and attempting to use a key command without popping up the remote first. Commands are now properly enabled/disabled whenever a CD is changed.
• Fixed a problem where the A-B repeat setting would get improperly reset when the popup menu was popped up and a track was not selected.
• Fixed a problem where a track selection from the popup menu was not getting recognized if A-B repeat mode was active.
1.3.2 June 12, 1996
• Added a direct track popup menu, accessible by holding the mouse button for a half second instead of clicking it.
• Fixed a memory leak that would cause a small block of memory to not be freed every time the remote control was called up.
• Updated contact information.
1.3.1 November 25, 1995
• Added the ability to open the PopupCD control panel from the remote control.
• Updated the ShowInitIcon code to v1.0.1 (by Peter N Lewis, Jim Walker, François Pottier, and others).
1.3.0 November 17, 1995
• Added disc and track name popup menu to remote control, using info from 'CD Remote Programs' database. Menu can be customized to show any combination of disc name, track numbers, track names, and track times in the control panel.
• Added support of AppleCD Audio Player programs.
• Added support of 'mixed mode' discs that contain a computer data track as the first track of the CD. All audio tracks will be numbered starting at track one, and all functions can be used with the disc.
• Added 'Driver Compatibility mode' for use with non-Apple drivers that do not support programmed stop points. This should allow such drivers to work better with PopupCD (shuffle/program and repeat modes are not supported).
• Added error reporting to digital audio recording to report the cause of any errors occurring during a recording. Notification dialog includes an error code and number to help me to diagnose any problems.
• Fixed a problem with digital audio recording that would not allow recording more than a few seconds at a time with AppleCD 600.
• Fixed registration dialog problem introduced in v1.2.0 where credit card numbers ending in 0 were not accepted.
• Added file size display to control panel preferences dialog to show storage requirements for the selected file type (only when registered).
• Added digital/analog clock display to remote when an audio disc is not in the drive.
• Buttons on the remote are now disabled when not available.
1.2.0 September 28, 1995
• Added disc and A-B repeat options to remote control.
• Added ability to save selected A-B samples to disc.
• Redesigned remote control slightly to accomodate new buttons.
• Added track elapsed/remaining time indicator to remote control.
• Added "Prefs..." button to control panel, which brings up a preferences dialog with new options to set sampled sound file format, option to show the 'PopupCD Sound Clips' folder in the Apple menu, option to play key and button click sounds when a command key or remote button is pressed, option to eject only audio CDs at shutdown, option to automatically eject a CD after play is completed, and option to set the default time display mode in the remote control.
• Added new on-off switch (with sound) to control panel.
• Added credit card account number verification and formatting routine to the registration dialog.
• Revised and simplified jGNE filter code.
• Improved compatibility with third-party drivers. Since some non-Apple drivers do not implement some features present in the Apple drivers (such as the ability to set stop points), it is impossible to provide 100% compatibility until the drivers are updated.
• Removed startup reminder after first installation, added alert reminder to control panel that appears the first time the control panel is opened after installation. Shareware reminders now appear much less frequently.
1.1.0 July 28, 1995
• Brand new control panel and "About" dialog. Revised "Control Keys" dialog.
• Added "Auto-resume" feature that resumes playback after a restart.
• Added "Auto-eject" feature that ejects any CD in the drive at shutdown.
• Removed dependence on Apple CD-ROM v5.0. PopupCD will now run with any driver that installs with the driver name ".AppleCD". Apple CD-ROM v5.0.1 or greater is still recommended however.
• Fixed minor problem where "Apple CD-ROM Required" message appeared when opening the control panel after starting with PopupCD turned off. Added relevant message.
• Fixed cosmetic problem in control panel "Control Keys" dialog where some key combinations displayed incorrectly.
• Removed "Show startup icon" option. The icon is now always shown at startup. If anyone objects to this please let me know.
• Registration on CompuServe's Shareware Registration service is now accepted (GO SWREG, ID# 6549).
1.0.2 July 9, 1995
• Added Finder balloon help.
• Additional minor tweaks.
1.0.1 July 8, 1995 (Not released)
• Fixed a problem on some systems that caused the buttons to appear blank with no icons on them.
