Users with custom menu.opml files may need to update. - Current track info now has track image (if available). - Fix for HLS - bug added unnecessary playback delay. - Included mrw's fixes to On-Demand programs - fixes the unavailability of some programs.
Release Notes for BBCiPlayerExtra 3.4.0 - Fix for missing menu icons for BBC Scotland and BBC Wales BBC made changes to API which provided current/recent track information. Previous BBCiPlayer version also used RadioPlayer API but that API was also broken at the same time so a number of changes were necessary. So I used the oppoprtunity to rewrite the metadata routine which over time had become a rat's nest (and hard to maintain) since first release as features were added/removed and APIs changed. As the APIs had broken I had no reference to check whether new metadata routine behaved the same as old especially on those UIs which I don't normally use. Changing the metadata routines which provides the "face" of BBCiPlayer meant having to test many permutations (e.g. with/without current track, enabled /disabled Station icon, skip back/live, live /on-demand) and on 4 UIs - Old SB player 2 line display, Touch, WebUI Classic & WebUI Material default settings. This means there are probably some cases/combinations where the displayed information has changed or maybe not even shown - please report so they can be checked. To make metadata uniform & simpler, parameters (title, desc & track) have been added to all all live stations "iplayer://" URLs. This may affect users who have custom menu.opml file and/or user who have saved "iplayer://" URLs as Favorites / Alarms. In those cases it will only require a small edit to add the necessary parameters otherwise some metadata info may not be displayed when playing. There seems to be a problem with downloads from sourceforge so use the github URL below.
