• further enhanced data separation detection

Enhanced multithreading for Colibri’s internals

• playback has been rewritten to use asynchronous read-ahead
• reduced lag/stuttering during network storage/high-latency playback

Sound Output settings

PLUGIN UPDATES

• BASS MIXER updated to version 2.4.9

BUGS FIXED IN THIS UPDATE

• The playlist would have floating and duplicating album titles upon column switching
• The title and artist name would not properly center horizontally on switching to 2-column mode
• Colibri would not load songs from Folders dragged and dropped on the Dock icon
• Colibri Playlist files would not always load properly via drag and drop
• Open Playlist would not always clear the whole playlist
• The selection cursor would disappear on song change or when the playlist is reordered/modified
• Switching loop modes directly before a song would end could cause the song details to not update properly
• Right-clicking/Option-clicking on empty space the Playlist and selecting ‘Reveal in Finder’ could cause Colibri to crash
• CUE sheet PERFORMER data was not being read correctly
• Initial playlist style was not properly initialized after a fresh install
• Sandbox permission granting could not always load the file the permission was asked for
• Mass-deleting and quickly re-adding multiple files at the same time could cause Colibri to crash
• In some cases corrupt/missing files would cause a bit of a chaos: titles and their respective songs would get mixed up
• Songs originating from CUE sheets that were not in UTF-8 BOM format would have ‘Unknown Artist’ shown as their Performer after exiting and relaunching Colibri – even though they had been correctly read the first time they were added
