Hi Owen,
We have collected some test results, they are proving that the new sound
source branch is more reliable then the master solution.
We have no hints for the opposite.
So IMHO is worth to consider the 1.12 merge again.
Yes, master the sound source api has not changed since 1.11, but Mixxx
1.12 actually makes a difference since it use a lot of seeks when using the
new shiny
beat matching algorithms.
They simply fail with effected mp3 tracks. User may blame the syncing code
in the first place.
I hope we will get some results from Ryan Kramer before the desired beta
date.
We are still looking for a user that is able to test the Mac builds.
It would be nice, if we could provide build server builds for the sound
source branch. This would allow much more users to run a test.
Kind regards,
Daniel
