Version 0.6.3

Just released version 0.6.3.

Many new features:
Stations can be changed from tray icon.
Lyrics can be displayed in external browser window. This feature is located in the tools menu.
OpenPandora can be set to stay on top of other windows.

There are also some usability updates:
Proxy support as set in Internet Explorer.
Some users (basically some of the programmers) were receiving debugger messages, but not with this version.
And a more reliable song submition to Last.fm.

Update: On the first run it will say that this is a beta version

Update2: Fixed the installer, so no "beta" on the first run

Beta

I'm starting to release betas of next versions, starting with version 0.6.2 beta.

This beta contains some fixes like proxy support and no more debugger messages. And also some new features: lyrics and keep on top of other windows.

This version lyrics feature is based on Leo's Lyrics and lyrics are shown in a browser window as a search result. Future releases will have the lyrics embedded in the OpenPandora.

If you have Last.fm installed ...

If you have Last.fm installed, you might have a problem to scrobble with OpenPandora.

If you do have a problem, check this post.
You will have to allow scrobbling from the directory where OpenPandora was installed. By default the directory is "c:\Program Files\OpenPandora\".

Thanks to Joel about letting me know about this.

Two days and a new version 0.6.1

Just released version 0.6.1 .

This version adds supports for Pandora paying users, option in installer to launch at startup and tools menu.

The first tool is "Copy info to clipboard". This tool will copy current played song information as displayed in the title to the clipboard.

Quick fix to 0.6.0.1

If you have Microsoft Windows version prior WinXP, the original release wouldn't run for you.
The problem was fixed after several hours, but if there is someone that had the problem, please download and install latest version again.

Enjoy the music.

New great features are coming

There is one particular feature that many asked me to add: "Play/Pause", "Skip", "I like it" and "I don't like it" in the context menu.

Guess what is the main feature of the next release?
But wait, there is more. Support for multimedia keyboard will hit the next version too.

That not all. Later versions will have global shortcuts and a mini-player.

If you think of other great features please leave a comment.

Settings control was changed and has tabs to reflect additional options.

Some bugs where fixed. If you encounter a bug, please report it via Contact link.
