TagLib 1.8 (In Development)
===========================

 * Support for writing ID3v2.3 tags.
 * Added methods for checking if WMA and MP4 files are DRM-protected.
 * Started using atomic int operations for reference counting.

TagLib 1.7 (Mar 11, 2011)
=========================

1.7:

 * Fixed memory leaks in the FLAC file format parser.
 * Fixed bitrate calculation for WAV files.

1.7 RC1:

 * Support for reading/writing tags from Monkey's Audio files. (BUG:210404)
 * Support for reading/writing embedded pictures from WMA files.
 * Support for reading/writing embedded pictures from FLAC files (BUG:218696).
 * Implemented APE::Tag::isEmpty() to check for all APE tags, not just the
   basic ones.
 * Added reading of WAV audio length. (BUG:116033)
 * Exposed FLAC MD5 signature of the uncompressed audio stream via
   FLAC::Properties::signature(). (BUG:160172)
 * Added function ByteVector::toHex() for hex-encoding of byte vectors.
 * WavPack reader now tries to get the audio length by finding the final
   block, if the header doesn't have the information. (BUG:258016)
 * Fixed a memory leak in the ID3v2.2 PIC frame parser. (BUG:257007)
 * Fixed writing of RIFF files with even chunk sizes. (BUG:243954)
 * Fixed compilation on MSVC 2010.
 * Removed support for building using autoconf/automake.
 * API docs can be now built using "make docs".

TagLib 1.6.3 (Apr 17, 2010)
===========================

 * Fixed definitions of the TAGLIB_WITH_MP4 and TAGLIB_WITH_ASF macros.
 * Fixed upgrading of ID3v2.3 genre frame with ID3v1 code 0 (Blues).
 * New method `int String::toInt(bool *ok)` which can return whether the
   conversion to a number was successfull.
 * Fixed parsing of incorrectly written lengths in ID3v2 (affects mainly
   compressed frames). (BUG:231075)

TagLib 1.6.2 (Apr 9, 2010)
==========================

 * Read Vorbis Comments from the first FLAC metadata block, if there are
   multipe ones. (BUG:211089)
 * Fixed a memory leak in FileRef's OGA format detection.
 * Fixed compilation with the Sun Studio compiler. (BUG:215225)
 * Handle WM/TrackNumber attributes with DWORD content in WMA files.
   (BUG:218526)
 * More strict check if something is a valid MP4 file. (BUG:216819)
 * Correctly save MP4 int-pair atoms with flags set to 0.
 * Fixed compilation of the test runner on Windows.
 * Store ASF attributes larger than 64k in the metadata library object.
 * Ignore trailing non-data atoms when parsing MP4 covr atoms.
 * Don't upgrade ID3v2.2 frame TDA to TDRC. (BUG:228968)

TagLib 1.6.1 (Oct 31, 2009)
===========================

 * Better detection of the audio codec of .oga files in FileRef.
 * Fixed saving of Vorbis comments to Ogg FLAC files. TagLib tried to
   include the Vorbis framing bit, which is only correct for Ogg Vorbis.
 * Public symbols now have explicitly set visibility to "default" on GCC.
 * Added missing exports for static ID3v1 functions.
 * Fixed a typo in taglib_c.pc
 * Fixed a failing test on ppc64.
 * Support for binary 'covr' atom in MP4 files. TagLib 1.6 treated them
   as text atoms, which corrupted them in some cases.
 * Fixed ID3v1-style genre to string conversion in MP4 files.

TagLib 1.6 (Sep 13, 2009)
=========================

1.6:

 * New CMake option to build a static version - ENABLE_STATIC.
 * Added support for disabling dllimport/dllexport on Windows using the
   TAGLIB_STATIC macro.
 * Support for parsing the obsolete 'gnre' MP4 atom.
 * New cpp macros TAGLIB_WITH_MP4 and TAGLIB_WITH_ASF to determin if
   TagLib was built with MP4/ASF support.

1.6 RC1:

 * Split Ogg packets larger than 64k into multiple pages. (BUG:171957)
 * TagLib can now use FLAC padding block. (BUG:107659)
 * ID3v2.2 frames are now not incorrectly saved. (BUG:176373)
 * Support for ID3v2.2 PIC frames. (BUG:167786)
 * Fixed a bug in ByteVectorList::split().
 * XiphComment::year() now falls back to YEAR if DATE doesn't exist
   and XiphComment::year() falls back to TRACKNUM if TRACKNUMBER doesn't
   exist. (BUG:144396)
 * Improved ID3v2.3 genre parsing. (BUG:188578)
 * Better checking of corrupted ID3v2 APIC data. (BUG:168382)
 * Bitrate calculating using the Xing header now uses floating point
   numbers. (BUG:172556)
 * New TagLib::String method rfind().
 * Added support for MP4 file format with iTunes-style metadata [optional].
 * Added support for ASF (WMA) file format [optional].
 * Fixed crash when saving a Locator APEv2 tag. (BUG:169810)
 * Fixed a possible crash in the non-const version of String::operator[]
   and in String::operator+=. (BUG:169389)
 * Added support for PRIV ID3v2 frames.
 * Empty ID3v2 genres are no longer treated as numeric ID3v1 genres.
 * Added support for the POPM (rating/playcount) ID3v2 frame.
 * Generic RIFF file format support:
   * Support for AIFF files with ID3v2 tags.
   * Support for WAV files with ID3v2 tags.
 * Fixed crash on handling unsupported ID3v2 frames, e.g. on encrypted
   frames. (BUG:161721)
 * Fixed overflow while calculating bitrate of FLAC files with a very
   high bitrate.
