Maemo finger-friendly updates; minor UI changes

        * data/gpodder.glade: Ellipsize the feed update progressbar in the

        don't set the tab title to the current episode title; hide the heading
        in gPodderEpisodeSelector on Maemo (to save screen space); add
        finger_friendly_widgets class attribute to several gPodder windows;
        make the tabs in the main window a bit taller, but remove the border
        around the main window to gain some space on the screen

        cancelled download
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add Doug Hellmann to contributors/coders list in
        the about dialog (Doug Hellmann has done the feed cache code); do not
        center the gPodderEpisode dialog on the treeAvailable widget (this
        looks ugly ;)
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Clean up import statements; Make sure we
        always have icon names, even in CLI mode; Remove "is_music_channel"
        property of podcastChannel (not needed anymore); 

Tue, 22 Apr 2008 21:15:40 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Python code fixup: Compare "None" with "is not" instead of "!="

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Fix problem with maemo window showing all
        widgets on start; feed cache update changes; update list of
        contributor (bug reporter for the cancel/skip button feature request

        gPodder via tray icon) on Maemo

Sat, 19 Apr 2008 18:46:30 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Additional fields for the device remove episodes dialog; refactoring

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add "Podcast" and "Released" columns to the
        episode selector; hide all columns in our "delete from device" episode
        selector that have all rows set to "None"; make the first text column
        of the gPodderEpisodeSelector bigger, so the episode selector is
        easier to read when there are many columns
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Use util.format_date() for
        cute_pubdate() in podcastItem
        * src/gpodder/sync.py: Document SyncTrack a bit better, add
        needed/possible keyword arguments that are used in the UI; default
        some values to None in case they are not provided; get "released" date
        from iPod's iTunesDB and get podcast name from MP3 player's sync
        folder (if this feature has been activated)
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add format_date() function that converts a Unix
        timestamp to a good representation for a date (either Today,
        Yesterday, a weekday or the locale's appropriate representation); the
        code has been re-factored from podcastItem's cute_pubdate() function
        in gpodder.libpodcasts and is now used from there

Thu, 17 Apr 2008 17:54:48 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Calculate total percentage based on byte size instead of percentage

        * src/gpodder/download.py: Make sure we save the right size of a
        currently in-progress download of an episode
        * src/gpodder/services.py: Calculate the total percentage for all
        episodes based on their file size instead of their percentage done;
        this is especially important when downloading small files mixed with
        large files; this makes the estimated download time more reliable;
        thanks to Jérôme Chabod, who has done this patch
        (Closes: http://bugs.gpodder.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46)

Thu, 17 Apr 2008 17:42:31 +0200 <thp@perli.net>

        thanks to Paul Rudking for the download settings to downloads tab
        patch
        * src/gpodder/download.py: Better rate limiting, implemented by Paul
        Rudkin
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: UI-related changes to the preferences dialog
        clean-up; the download settings changes are by Paul Rudkin

Tue, 15 Apr 2008 20:57:51 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Merge patch from Jérôme Chabod to really pimp the tray icon tooltip :)

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add some error reporting and change the code a
        bit to support the new tooltips; thanks to Jérôme Chabod
        * src/gpodder/trayicon.py: Add support for more elaborate tray icon
        tooltips; patch by Jérôme Chabod
        (Closes: http://bugs.gpodder.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97)

Mon, 14 Apr 2008 13:51:23 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Add bug reporter to list of contributors

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Bug #95 was reported by Tomas Matheson, so add
        him to the list of contributors

Mon, 14 Apr 2008 13:45:34 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Set Close and cancel buttons to the default on most dialogs

        * data/gpodder.glade: Apply patch from Jerome Chabod that sets the
        close and cancel buttons on most dialogs of gPodder to the default and
        give them focus; this makes keyboard navigation possible and should
        make it easier for keyboard fans to use gPodder UI :) This partially
        fixes bug #95, but there are still some things to do for this bug.

Mon, 14 Apr 2008 13:40:32 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Merge patch from Jerome Chabod to fix Remove podcasts for MP3 players

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add warning message when we can't find a needed
        attribute; add "Philippe Gouaillier" to list of contributors (bug
        reporter for this bug)
        * src/gpodder/sync.py: Add playcount attribute to MP3 player sync code
        (Closes: http://bugs.gpodder.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96)

        * src/gpodder/trayicon.py: Merge patch from Jerome Chabod to fix the
        problem with the tray icon actions reported in bug #55; this is
        basically attachment #33 with some cosmetic fixes
        (Closes: http://bugs.gpodder.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55)

Fri, 11 Apr 2008 10:26:50 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Correct "Close" and "Quit" behaviour

        * data/gpodder.glade: Add a "Close" menu item to the podcasts menu and
        rename the quit item to "Quit" (from "Close) to make the interface
        more consistent and to support both Ctrl+W and Ctrl+Q
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Correct "Close" and "Quit" behaviour and make
        Close be the "minimize to tray" function when the tray icon is
        enabled; when not enabled, "Close" acts the same way as "Quit" (but is
        left visible, so the Ctrl+W shortcut also works to close gPodder);
        thanks to Harley Laue for the suggestion and initial patch
        (Closes: http://bugs.gpodder.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89)

Fri, 11 Apr 2008 10:11:33 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Make RSS .torrent feeds from different Torrent sites work

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: If an episode doesn't have an enclosure,
        but its link looks like it's a media/torrent file, we are going do
        interpret that as the enclosure URL; this makes feeds from different
        torrent sites work with gPodder; thanks to Josh Gardner
        <mellowcellofellow@gmail.com> for reporting this bug on Bugzilla
        (http://bugs.gpodder.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74)

Tue, 08 Apr 2008 10:54:01 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Updated Spanish translation

        * data/po/es.po: Updated Spanish translation from Julio Acuña

Mon, 07 Apr 2008 23:06:53 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Makre sure we can re-set the locale after changing it

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Make sure we can re-set the locale after
        changing it, and if we cannot, only print a warning, but don't throw
        the exception outside of the function

Mon, 07 Apr 2008 23:05:05 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Add 64x64 icon for Maemo's main menu and install it

        * data/icons/64/gpodder.png: Added
        * setup.py: Install the 64x64 icon in share/icons/hicolor

Mon, 07 Apr 2008 11:47:12 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Install "pixmaps" icon on Maemo, too

        * setup.py: Make sure we also install the "/usr/share/pixmaps/"
        version of the gPodder icon on Maemo (for the task navigator)

Mon, 07 Apr 2008 11:24:54 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Fix problems with the tray icon emblems

        * src/gpodder/trayicon.py: Fix emblem drawing code for non-square
        icons; use the "refresh" icon for feed updates and "multimedia-player"
        icon for the iPod/MP3 player sync status emblem

Sun, 06 Apr 2008 17:22:11 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Fix install Makefile bug; add donator; fix treeview header height

        * Makefile: Add "generators" dependency for the "install" target
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add Mark Alford (donator) to contributors list;
        remove the hard-coded header height offset for the treeview, because
        we don't need it anymore, because we hide the header (this is a good
        thing, because we don't need to rely on a theme-specific header
        height compared to what we did previously - one FIXME less :)

Sun, 06 Apr 2008 02:05:34 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Initial upstream support for the Maemo platform (Nokia Internet Tablets)

        * bin/gpodder: Add "--maemo/-m" option to enable running as a Maemo
        application (this is only useful on Nokia Internet Tablets or in the
        Maemo SDK environment); determine interface type and set the correct
        variables on startup (gpodder.interface)
        * data/gpodder.glade: Increase the default size of some widgets to
        better fit the screens on Maemo (it won't do any harm on the "big"
        Desktop screen
        * data/icons/26/gpodder.png: Added
        * data/icons/40/gpodder.png: Added
        * data/maemo/gpodder.desktop: Added
        * Makefile: Help2man variable; new "make mtest" target that runs
        gPodder in Maemo scratchbox (probably useless for all other things);
        update the command descriptions; don't run the "generators" target
        from the "install" target; don't run "gen_graphics" from the
        "generators" target, but make it depend on the 24-pixel logo, which
        itself depends on the 22-pixel logo; this way, all should work out
        well when trying to install on systems without ImageMagick installed;
        remove *.pyo files on "make clean"
        * setup.py: Support for build targets; use "TARGET=maemo" to enable
        Maemo-specific installation options and files
        * src/gpodder/config.py: Increase the WRITE_TO_DISK_TIMEOUT to 60
        seconds, so we don't unnecessarily stress memory cards (on ITs);
        modify default path variables on Maemo (/media/mmc2)
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Maemo-specific changes; clean-up the main window
        a bit and make message and confirmation dialogs Hildon-compatible
        * src/gpodder/__init__.py: Add enums for interface types: CLI, GUI and
        MAEMO; remove the "interface_is_gui" variable and replace with
        "interface", which is now used to determine where we are running
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Use /media/mmc2/gpodder/ as configuration
        folder on Maemo; use Nokia's Media player to playback files on Maemo
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Icon name changes (Maemo-specific)
        * src/gpodder/trayicon.py: Maemo support; swap popup menu on Maemo;
        Add support for hildon banners instead of pynotify on Maemo
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Icon name changes (Maemo-specific); use new
        gpodder.interface variable in idle_add

Sat, 05 Apr 2008 21:06:14 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Make i18n help text work in the console help (gpodder --help)

        * bin/gpodder: Fix a bug that would make the localized help string of
        the CLI break; thanks to Pavel Mlcoch <pavkamlc@centrum.cz> for
        reporting this bug on the gPodder bug tracker
        (Closes: http://bugs.gpodder.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53)

        * data/gpodder.glade: Use the multimedia-player icon for the transfer
        to device menu item (was still gtk-network, forgot to change)

Fri, 04 Apr 2008 09:48:25 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Fix gPodder freeze with open notifications on quit

        * src/gpodder/trayicon.py: Fix a bug when gPodder would freeze when
        a notification bubble was still open while closing the main
        application; thanks to Jérôme Chabod for reporting this issue
        (Closes: http://bugs.gpodder.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55)

Fri, 04 Apr 2008 09:46:23 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Increase filename size limitation from 50 to 100 chars in MP3 player sync

        * src/gpodder/sync.py: Increase the number at which file names are cut
        down in length to 100 characters and also cut folder names to that
        length; thanks to Bernd Schlapsi for reporting this bug on the list

Sun, 30 Mar 2008 10:48:41 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Make the Quit buttons actually quit when using the tray icon

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Patch from Nick L. to make the function of all
        "Quit" buttons really quit gPodder and only make the window's "X"
        button act as "minimize to tray" button; Also, update the credits name

Sat, 29 Mar 2008 17:13:26 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Project management updates (authors, contributors and copyright)

        * AUTHORS: Removed (was outdated); content now in gui.py (AboutDialog)
        * bin/gpodder, data/po/Makefile, doc/dev/copyright_notice, 
          doc/dev/win32/setup-win32.py, INSTALL, Makefile, README,
          setup.py: Updated Copyright and old website URL to include 2008, the
          gPodder team and www.gpodder.org
        * src/gpodder/*.py: Updated Copyright years
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add list of contributors from AUTHORS file and
        from the content on the website's news page (please mail me if I
        forgot to mention you as a contributor, I surely have missed a few);
        make the AboutDialog's application name "gPodder" (from gpodder) and
        add an URL hook function to the AboutDialog, so the website is opened
        in the user's default web browser

Sat, 29 Mar 2008 16:30:02 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Report errors in parsing/loading an already-added channel in the navigator

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Show the error from feedparser in the channel's
        tooltip if there has been an error loading the channel
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Make sure we can load a default title
        when using get_by_url(); save the parse_error variable for each
        channel (it defaults to None if there is no error); mark the
        description text for the channel navigator in red color if there has
        been a parser error and add the parse_error variable to the liststore
        model
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Strip whitespace before and after the string in
        remove_html_tags()

Add support for Rockbox' AudioScrobbler logfile to update played status

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add "mp3_player_use_scrobbler_log"
        configuration option (defaulting to False) which controls if we are
        going to try and find a ".scrobbler.log" file that contains
        information on which tracks have been played; for this to work, you
        also have to enable the "Updated tags after download" option
        * src/gpodder/sync.py: Support for finding the .scrobbler.log file and
        updating the played status of episodes in the MP3 player sync code
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add "find_mount_point()" function that tries to
        determine the mount point on which the given directory (or file) lies
        and returns the mount point or "/" if the directory/file resides on
        the root filesystem.

        This whole patch has been contributed by Nick <nikosapi.org> - thanks!

Merge sv.po translation from 0.11.1 release tarball

        * data/po/sv.po: It seems like I somehow messed up the translations
        merge, so here's the correct sv.po translation file, merged from the
        0.11.1 tarball; thanks to Anders Kvist <kvistkvist@telia.com> for
        pointing that out :)

Make sure we ignore the updated_parsed of a channel if it's None

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Only try to convert the "updated_parsed"
        field if it's not "None"
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Make sure we receive a valid 9-tuple when
        converting dates from updated_parsed; if we receive a None value or
        some value that isn't "9" in length, return None
        Thanks to Chris Arnold <carnold@electrichendrix.com> for reporting
        this bug on the gpodder-devel mailing list

Use cPickle for dumbshelve - it's compatible and faster

        * src/gpodder/dumbshelve.py: Improve saving of channel cache and
        metadata (and basically all that currently depends on dumbshelve) by
        using cPickle as a drop-in replacement for pickle

Thu, 27 Mar 2008 11:28:31 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix problem with pickle when there is a feed parsing exception

        * src/gpodder/cache.py: When the feedparser returns an exception, this
        will be stored as object in bozo_exception. Convert this to a string,
        so the pickle module doesn't complain; thanks to VladDrac in #python
        on FreeNode for pointing me to the right direction to fix this bug

Mon, 24 Mar 2008 10:42:19 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add "3gp" to the list of video file extensions, so we detect these files

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add the .3gp video file extension to the list
        of known video file extensions, so we can detect that these are video
        files and act accordingly (in the UI and on sync); thanks to Atte
        André Jensen for reporting this bug on the gpodder-devel mailing list

Fix a bug when loading invalid image data (delete cover file then)

        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Fix a bug when gPodder is unable to load
        an invalid cover image (i.e. when dragging a linked image from the
        browser to the gPodder window, the link is sent, not the image)

Make bluetooth device discover a bit nicer

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Improve bluetooth device discovery button by not
        destroying its design when it has been clicked and the label is
        modified

Revert previous insanity (where I selected an awful "Transfer" toolbar icon)

        * data/gpodder.glade: I wonder why I selected "gtk-network" as the
        icon for the "Transfer" button on gPodder's toolbar. It surely is
        irritating and illogical as hell.. Hmm. Anyway - now, there is a nice
        "multimedia-player" icon which probably depicts an iPod-like device
        if you use a good icon set. This makes much more sense. Go usability!

Sat, 22 Mar 2008 20:41:54 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add "Visit website" menu items to channel and episode list; simple chan menu

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add "Visit website" menu items to the context
        menu of both the episode list and the channel navigator; also, make
        the channel context menu easier to use by replacing the old
        "Edit [Channelname]" and "Remove [Channelname]" items with stock items

Fix "Podcasts not being marked as new when synced to iPod" (#70)

        * src/gpodder/sync.py: Fix bug when podcasts were not marked as new
        when synced to iPod and "on_sync_mark_played" was enabled;
        Bug URL: http://bugs.gpodder.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70
        Thanks to defrex (defrex0 gmail com) for report this bug in Bugzilla

Delay loading of UserAppsReader and improve libplayers

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Only load UserAppsReader's database three
        seconds after gPodder start (because we only need it when the user
        opens the preferences dialog, and if she opens it before these three
        seconds, the UserAppsReader data is loaded on demand); because we load
        the database (and generate the model) before we display the
        preferences dialog, the preferences dialog usually comes up faster
        than before (except for the situation where it is opened right after
        gPodder startup); have only one UserAppsReader for audio/video and not
        both (would duplicate the amount of work needed to read desktop
        files); cleanup some UserAppsReader-related code in the prefs dialog
        * src/gpodder/libplayers.py: Improve the reading code and make it
        possible to support multiple mime types per-UserAppsReader (i.e. both
        audio and video types are read by a single UAR instance); clean up the
        imports for this module and do other related changes to make the code
        nicer to read and understand

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 11:18:51 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add option to limit the maximum number of episodes per feed

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add "max_episodes_per_feed" configuration
        option (int, defaults to 200) that determines the maximum number of
        episodes that are parsed per channel/feed; if there are more episodes,
        they are ignored. This value can be adjusted via the extended
        configuration editor if you need more episodes
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add support for the
        max_episodes_per_feed configuration option above

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 11:13:16 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix bug with unneeded download directory being created

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Fix bug when an unneeded download
        directory would be created on every gPodder startup

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 11:11:18 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Only serialize DumbShelve to disk when we have changed/deleted items in it

        * src/gpodder/dumbshelve.py: Add a "__dirty" flag to DumbShelve to
        know if we have to write the DumbShelve to the disk or if nothing has
        changed since the last write (and therefore no need to run the
        time-consuming serialization code again); this speeds up initial
        loading time and probably also speeds up other parts of the code

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 11:09:27 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Timestamp and benchmark functions for logger

        * src/gpodder/liblogger.py: Add support for timestamping and benchmark
        functions to liblogger, so we see the microtime since gPodder startup
        and can also use the logging module to benchmark the speed of certain
        code parts; this is helpful for our performance patches :)

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 11:07:48 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Performance-improving patch from Nick (nikosapi) to html entity replacement

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Merge patch from Nick (nikosapi.org) to really
        improve performance of the HTML tag stripper/entity replacement code
        by using regular expressions and some more intelligent code for
        converting numeric entities to Unicode characters

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 11:06:32 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add demo code for displaying a splash screen

        * doc/dev/splash-logo.py: Added testing code that would display a
        splash screen (transparent if compositing is enabled); we currently
        don't plan to use this code for reasons described on gpodder-devel

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 10:04:14 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Filter "None" filenames from GtkFileChooser widgets

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Make sure we don't receive a "None" filename
        from GtkFileChooser widgets when connecting to the config manager

Wed, 19 Mar 2008 18:06:58 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Change the context menu of the episode list popup menu

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Simplify, re-structure and improve the context
        menu of the episode list popup menu (right-click menu); thanks to hex
        (justin.forest gmail.com) for suggesting this change and giving
        valuable input on gpodder-devel

Wed, 19 Mar 2008 15:45:15 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Patch from Nikosapi to fix MP3 player sync progress

        * src/gpodder/sync.py: Patch from Nick (nikosapi.org) to fix MP3
        player sync problems: "Instead of displaying the proper percentage of
        the copied file in the FS-based sync dialog, gPodder would initially
        report 100% and near the end of the copy it would report percentages
        >100%."

Wed, 19 Mar 2008 15:02:10 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Various Bluetooth-related fixes

        * data/gpodder.glade: Use the "bluetooth" icon instead of the (old?)
        "stock_bluetooth" icon; in Gnome 2.22, the "bluetooth" icon is nicer,
        i.e. more Tango-ish than the "stock_bluetooth" icon
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Fix a logging error; Only show "Send to [...]
        via bluetooth"/"Send to bluetooth device" when we have already
        downloaded the episodes (won't obviously work otherwise..)
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Fix bluetooth_send_file to work with both
        bluetooth-sendto and gnome-obex-send (different command line argument
        format for both)

Sun, 16 Mar 2008 12:55:49 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Python-feedparser is a dependency, so mention it in the README

        * README: Mention python-feedparser as a dependency in the README
        file; thanks to Alain Tauch for pointing this out on the mailing list

Tue, 11 Mar 2008 18:53:25 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add option to write gtkpod extended database on sync

        * data/gpodder.glade: Add a check box for the new config option
        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add ipod_write_gtkpod_extended boolean
        configuration variable that controls if we want to write iTunesDB.ext
        after synchronization (defaults to False)
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Glue code for UI<->Config manager
        * src/gpodder/sync.py: Use libgpod's "gtkpod" module to write the
        extended gtkpod database (iTunesDB.ext) to the iPod after sync - this
        has to be enabled via an option

Tue, 11 Mar 2008 18:44:19 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix problem with old PyGTK versions when importing gpodder.trayicon

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Apply patch from Bill Barnard
        <bill@barnard-engineering.com>, based on a patch from Jérôme Chabod
        <jerome.chabod@ifrance.com> that makes sure we can import the tray
        icon module. If not, we disable the tray icon functionality

Mon, 10 Mar 2008 16:37:38 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add support for creating M3U playlist files in download folders

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add "create_m3u_playlists" boolean
        configuration option (default False) that controls if we want to
        generate per-channel M3U playlists in our download folders
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add context menu entry for manually updating an
        M3U playlist for the channel navigator (only visible when updating m3u
        playlists is enabled
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add update_m3u_playlist() function to
        podcastChannel and call it when removing and adding downloaded
        episodes
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add sanitize_filename() function that tries to
        encode a file name in the system's encoding, stripping all chars that
        are invalid on FAT32 and other systems (e.g. slash, etc..)

Thu, 06 Mar 2008 17:46:21 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Be less verbose, consider episodes with length<=100 to have invalid length

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Remove verbose logging for episode
        metadata (seems to work now); consider episodes with a small length
        value to have invalid length, i.e. try to find the length of the
        episode by looking at the HTTP header; thanks to Bernd
        <schlaber@gmail.com> for sending in the feed URL with which this bug
        happens (length was 1) during the gPodder workflow survey :)

Tue, 04 Mar 2008 12:15:53 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix KeyError bug in custom_selection_button_clicked (from LP)

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Fix problem with localized strings on the custom
        selection buttons, i.e. pass the label to the function directly
        instead of relying on the gtk.Button to have the label in the correct
        encoding (LP: #192918); thanks to Pavel Mlčoch for reporting this bug
        on Launchpad

Tue, 04 Mar 2008 12:05:23 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix AttributeError bug in updateTreeView (from LP)

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Make sure that we have a valid "active_channel"
        when updating the tree view (LP: #183667); thanks to red26wings for
        reporting this bug on Launchpad

Mon, 03 Mar 2008 23:06:30 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add support for changing the URL of a subscribed channel (bug #42)

        * data/gpodder.glade: Make the URL entry in the channel dialog
        editable
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add support for changing the URL of a subscribed
        channel (i.e. move from the "latest" RSS feed to the "complete" RSS
        feed, as is the case with Chaosradio podcasts, for example); ask user
        if she really wants to move; handle case where the new URL is wrong
        by reverting to old URL; Improve code for moving the download
        directory; thanks to Steve Garcia <sgarcia@bak.rr.com> for the bug
        report

Mon, 03 Mar 2008 21:14:55 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Small fix for moving downloads progress bar

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Make sure the value for set_fraction of the
        progress bar is in 0.0..1.0

Mon, 03 Mar 2008 20:53:15 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add "Go to website" buttons to episode and channel (bug #43)

        * data/gpodder.glade: Add "Go to website" buttons to episode and
        channel info dialogs
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add code to open website URL or hide the "Go to
        website" button when there is no valid website link for an episode or
        channel

Mon, 03 Mar 2008 20:37:02 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Move webbrowser code to util.open_website; fix URLs to gpodder.org

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Use new gpodder.org URLs; use
        util.open_website() instead of directly interfacing with threads and
        the "webbrowser" module
        * src/gpodder/util.py: New function open_website() that takes care of
        opening the system's default web browser and opening the specified URL

Sun, 02 Mar 2008 14:20:56 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Make "gl" a global-accessible object in libgpodder

        * doc/dev/gdfs/gdfs-check.py: Adapt to new structure of gPodderLib
        * src/gpodder/*.py: Use "gl" instead of all incarnations of
        "gPodderLib()" or "libgpodder.gPodderLib()", and weed out all "gl =
        gPodderLib() lines, because it makes the code look unnecessarily
        bloated ;)
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Make "gl" a global instance of the
        gPodderLib() object, and rename gPodderLibClass to gPodderLib and do
        some more cleaning-up

Sun, 02 Mar 2008 14:03:40 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Move gPodderLib().open_folder to util.gui_open

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Use util.gui_open instead of gl.open_folder
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Remove open_folder (move to gpodder.util)
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add gui_open function that uses xdg_open to
        open files and folders with their default application in the GUI

Sun, 02 Mar 2008 13:52:42 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Pickle-based storage method (dumbshelve); HTTP HEAD requests; buggy feed fixes

        * src/gpodder/dumbshelve.py: Added (replacement for "shelve" using
        pickle)
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Rename *.db files to *.pickle.db, so we
        don't clash with old-style shelve .db files
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Use dumbshelve as a replacement for
        shelve; add EpisodeURLMetainfo that keeps track of metainfo downloaded
        via HTTP HEAD requests; make getting episode length and pubDate a bit
        more intelligent by trying to find correct values via HTTP HEAD;
        improve episode sorting by falling back to episode titles when no
        pubDate has been found (or pubDate is equal); 
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add get_episode_info_from_url() function that
        tries to find out the length and pubDate of an episode by looking at
        the data from the HTTP HEAD; also support HTTP proxys via an optional
        "proxy" keyword argument

Notify user about no new episodes when updating from tray icon

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Patch from Jérôme Chabod
        <jerome.chabod@ifrance.com> to notify the user about "no new episodes"
        when updating the feed cache manually via the tray icon
        (Closes: http://bugs.gpodder.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3)
        * src/gpodder/trayicon.py: See above

Wed, 27 Feb 2008 09:52:14 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Use xdg-open for files that we don't know the file type of

        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: If the file we want to open/play is not
        an audio or video file, we use "xdg-open" to open the file (this is
        used for things like PDF files and the like, e.g. in Chaos TV)

Wed, 27 Feb 2008 09:46:55 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add Flash Video (flv) and Windows Media Video (wmv) to file detection

When sending via Bluetooth, always rename/copy the file

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: When sending files via Bluetooth, and the file
        converter script is not enabled, we are simply copying the file to the
        sync_filename of the episode, therefore creating a nice name. We have
        to copy the file, because neither gnome-obex-send nor bluetooth-sendto
        let us specify the destination filename when sending the file, these
        utilities always take the input filename (thanks to Chris
        <gpodder@noreply.org.uk> for the bug report)
        (Closes: http://bugs.gpodder.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49)

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: "== None" => "is None"
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: "== None" => "is None"

Add support for new "bluetooth-sendto" utility

        * README: Ask for either "gnome-obex-send" or "bluetooth-sendto",
        which are needed for the Bluetooth file transfer
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add support for "bluetooth-sendto" as an
        alternative to "gnome-obex-send"; initial bug report and patch by
        Leonid Ponomarev (this probably adds bluez-gnome as an optional
        dependency if you want bluetooth send support)

Mon, 25 Feb 2008 15:51:16 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Show more description text in episode list

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Join all lines and strip unnecessary
        data for the episode description that is displayed in the episode list
        when descriptions are enabled (suggested by Jérôme Chabod)

Make feed update display "Loading" titles, only run auto update when minimized

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Usability patch from NIkosapi <nikosapi.org>:

        "Downloading feeds" when its loading the feeds from the local cache;
        only run the automatic, periodic update when gPodder is minimized,

Merge new sync code from thp's private branch

        * bin/gpodder: Add "--sync"/"-s" command-line option to start the
        device synchronization process from the CLI interface - syncing can

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add file_age_in_days() and file_age_to_string()

        configuration option later)
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add discover_bluetooth_devices() function that
        searches for nearby devices (either via python-bluez or via hcitool,
        so one of them has to be installed as a dependency); add
        bluetooth_send_file() convenience function that starts a file transfer
        via Bluetooth OBEX - uses gnome-obex-send, which has to be installed
        for Bluetooth file transfer to work

        * src/gpodder/libplayers.py: Parameterize the UserAppsReader class to
        accept a mime type (e.g. "video" or "audio") after which to filter

Remove the "Ignore" button in tray icon notifications

        * src/gpodder/trayicon.py: Remove the "ignore" action and button when
        a download has finished; the "ignore" button is redundant, as the same

Modularize calls to gobject.idle_add (for non-GTK support)

        * bin/gpodder: Set interface_is_gui to True when running the GUI
        * src/gpodder/*.py: Use util.idle_add instead of gobject.idle_add
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Simplify some idle_add calls, code clean-up
        * src/gpodder/__init__.py: Add "interface_is_gui" boolean variable
        that tells us if we are running in GUI or CLI mode (this is needed for
        util.idle_add to determine if it's going to use the gobject module or
        not)
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add new function idle_add() that acts as a
        wrapper to gobject.idle_add(); this will only use gobject.idle_add if
        we are in GUI mode, and will call the callback directly when we are in
        command-line mode (because we don't have to watch out for threading
        race conditions there, compared to what GTK+ gives us)

        first saving it to a temporary file and then using os.rename to really
        move the file in place (this should make the channel list saving very
        stable and protect against certain bad system conditions where the
        channel list is emptied); thanks to Jens Thiele <karme@berlios.de> for
        the suggestion and pointers to improve the channel saving code

Migrate from channels.xml (from 0.9.4) to channels.opml if needed

        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Add code to check if channels.xml exists
        but channels.opml doesn't and if so, try to convert from channels.xml
        to channels.opml, so users upgrading from 0.9.4 directly will have
        their channel list automatically converted;
        thanks to Tim Michelsen for the bug report and helpful Ubuntu info

        download has been completed successfully
        * src/gpodder/services.py: Add download-complete signal to list of
        possible signals and download_completed() method to be used by
        downloads to notify the status manager of a successful download

Sat, 29 Dec 2007 14:21:51 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Patch the feedparser module to correctly process democracynow.org

        * src/gpodder/cache.py: Add a patch_feedparser() method that checks of
        the feedparser module correctly maps the "plain" content-type to the
        correct "text/plain" content-type and if not, replace the
        mapContentType method with a fixed one; this should make the audio
        podcast on democracynow.org working (thanks to Clark Burbidge for the
        bug report)

Also delete old episodes that have disappeared from the feed

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: When deleting old episodes automatically, also
        delete episodes that have disappeared from the RSS feed and are only
        available locally; thanks to Pieter De Decker <pdedecker@gmail.com>
        for the very detailed and helpful bug report :)

Stability updates: Feed cache update, old PyCairo versions

        * src/gpodder/draw.py: Add a workaround for pycairo versions less than
        1.1.6. Thanks to Chris Arnold for reporting this bug on the
        gpodder-devel mailing list and taking the time to test the patch and
        report back and provide useful information for debugging this error
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Close the feed cache update dialog even when the
        user clicks on "cancel" (would have stayed there otherwise)

Tue, 18 Dec 2007 10:13:44 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Merge "delete episode after sync" patch from Jérôme Chabod

        * data/gpodder.glade: Add GUI elements in preferences dialog to select
        what to do after episode sync (nothing, delete or mark played)
        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add "on_sync_delete" configuration option
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Glue "on_sync_delete" config and GUI together
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: If the configuration option
        on_sync_delete is set, remove the episode after successfully copying
        it to the iPod or MP3 player (the whole patch has been initially done
        by Jérôme Chabod <jerome.chabod@france.com> with some modifications)
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Make delete_from_disk() a bit more
        robust, so it doesn't disturb libipodsync's functionality

Mon, 17 Dec 2007 16:26:43 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Remove invalid channel cover images when loading fails

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Remove the cover_file of a channel when
        it cannot be loaded (assume something went wrong when downloading the
        cover file); re-downloading the cover manually can solve the problem

Mon, 17 Dec 2007 15:00:17 +0100 <thp@perli.net>

Configuration for "old" episodes; automatically remove old episodes

        * src/gpodder/config.py: New boolean auto_remove_old_episodes
        configuration option that defaults to False (remove on startup)
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add code to automatically remove old, unplayed
        episodes on startup if the specific configuration options have been
        set; connect config manager to GUI items for the preferences dialog
        * data/gpodder.glade: Add checkbox for automatically removing old,
        unplayed episodes from gPodder on startup and a spinbutton to set the
        amount of days after which an episode is considered "old"

Wed, 12 Dec 2007 19:44:15 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Merged episode locking patch from Paul Rudkin

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Merged "lock episodes" patch to mark episodes as
        locked, patch by Paul Rudkin <paul@thegithouse.com>
        * data/gpodder.glade: Add menu item for toggle locked status
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Add "locked" history
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: When requesting a status icon, also draw
        the "Locked" status; is_locked() in podcastItem
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Added code for drawing a padlock icon on top of
        another (file type) icon; this is used for the "lock episodes" feature

Tue, 11 Dec 2007 22:10:03 +0100 <thp@perli.net>

Move observer code out of DownloadStatusManager into ObservableService

        * src/gpodder/services.py: Move out all observer-related code like
        registration, unregistration and notification to a new
        ObservableService class; subclass ObservableService in
        DownloadStatusManager; this makes the observer code in
        DownloadStatusManager re-usable (will be needed for new sync code)

Mon, 10 Dec 2007 09:33:26 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Selective iPod episode clean-up; "delete older than X days"

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add episode_old_age configuration variable;
        is an integer, defaults to 7. This is the number of days after which
        an episode will be considered "old"
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: iPod cleanup is now done selectively using the
        episode selector dialog; the code has been split, because we do not
        yet have an episode selector dialog for FS-based sync; add "Downloaded
        x days ago" column to "Delete old episodes" dialog and a corresponding
        button; call the callback even when no episodes are selected in
        gPodderEpisodeSelector
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Class variables of gPodder_iPodSync
        moved to __init__ to be instance variables (this should fix a bug that
        crops up now that we can selectively delete episodes); remove_tracks()
        and clean_playlist() have been modified/added to support new episode
        selector deletion code
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Move is_played() to podcastItem from
        podcastChannel (it really belongs to the item; this makes code more
        readable in other parts of the codebase); add age_in_days(), is_old(),
        get_age_string() and age_prop to podcastItem
        * src/gpodder/util.py: New function: file_modification_datetime();
        returns a datetime.datetime instance of the MTIME (modification
        timestamp) of the filename given as parameter or None if the filename
        cannot be determined; this is used for the "old episodes" feature

Sun, 09 Dec 2007 16:45:11 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Make has_converter() a bit more intelligent in detecting extensions

        * src/gpodder/libconverter.py: Convert given extension to lowercase
        and strip a leading "." from the extension, so calling code can also
        give the second value of the os.path.splitext() result directly to
        has_converter()

        code; use set_current_folder() instead of set_filename()
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Fix pre-setting code for filechooser-related
        code; thanks to Paul Rudkin <paul@thegithouse.com> for the patch

Support for itms:// links (direct links to the Apple iTunes Music Store)

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Support direct itms:// links by splitting out
        the iTunes Podcast links parsing routines. This should put us in for
        some nice iTunes podcast link support that will automagically
        translate iTunes podcast links to the correct RSS feed URL

Thu, 06 Dec 2007 09:29:09 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Support for iTunes Podcast links (http://phobos.apple.com/...)

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add support for subscribing to iTunes Podcast

Sort channel list (finally ;)

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Sort channels by lowercase title before
        returning the channel list in load_channels(); this automagically
        makes gPodder's channel list always sorted :)
        Thanks to FriedBunny <friedbunny@kulturny.com> for suggesting this and
        sending in an intial patch that led to this patch =)
        * TODO: Remove implemented item: Sort channel list

Do grayscale "pill" instead of theme-based colors (for bad themes)

        * src/gpodder/draw.py: Always draw the "pill" in semi-transparent
        black/grey shades so it will work for all GTK themes (even Ubuntu's)

Mon, 03 Dec 2007 21:35:56 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Update channel navigator when iPod/MP3 player sync has finished

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Update channel navigator when iPod sync has
        finished, so we can update the "played" status in the channel
        navigator when this status has changed after we've synced ("on sync
        mark played" option)

        an episode as played when it gets transferred to a device
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Glue code for GUI + gpodder.config
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: On sync, mark episode as played if the
        user has selected the "on_sync_mark_played" option
        * TODO: Remove implemented/integrated items

Sat, 01 Dec 2007 15:19:29 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix a fatal bug with first-run that prevents channel list saving

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Always use a file's parent directory to get the
        free disk space and return zero free disk space when the parent
        directory does not exist

Thu, 29 Nov 2007 08:53:36 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Support for itpc:// URLs

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add support for adding "itpc://" URLs (these
        are simply http:// URLs with a different schema, for iTunes)

Tue, 27 Nov 2007 22:59:26 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Draw channel stats (unplayed, downloaded) on channel navigator

        * bin/gpodder: We're in development again, so add "+svn"
        * src/gpodder/draw.py: Added
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Fix import of renamed "channels_to_model";
        re-assign new column numbers for treeChannels' data model; add
        cell renderer for pill pixbuf and remove cell renderer for status text
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add episode_is_new() function to
        podcastChannel to check if an episode can be considered "new"; use the
        episode_is_new function in get_new_episodes; add get_episode_stats()
        after an idea from Paul Rudkin <paul@thegithouse.com>; re-factor
        channels_to_model and clean out old, unused code and columns

Make sure there is enough free disk space when saving OPML channel list

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Notify user that there's some problem saving the
        current channel list when save_channels() return False
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Pass-through the return value of
        gpodder.opml.Exporter.write so calling code knows if saving the
        channel list was successful or not
        * src/gpodder/opml.py: Check free disk space before saving OPML
        channels in Exporter.write; thanks to Jens Thiele <karme@berlios.de>
        for reporting this bug on the Debian BTS (Closes: Debian Bug #452490)

Don't send Referer header when downloading episodes

        * src/gpodder/download.py: Some podcasts now implement an
        "anti-bandwidth-theft" code that should provide other websites from
        not linking to the episodes; as we have sent a Referer header
        containing the RSS feed URL, this causes problems; Referer header
        sending is therefore disabled now

Check free disk space before copying files to iPod

        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Check if the iPod's filesystem has
        enough free disk space before copying files over to it, as to not
        corrupt the iTunesDB in certain situations and fail when disk is full;
        thanks to Nicolas Quienot <niqooo@gmail.com> for the bug report
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add get_free_disk_space() function that
        calculates the free (user-available) disk space on a given path

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 21:55:18 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add informative tooltips to channel navigator

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add tooltips to channel navigator that show a
        bigger cover image, the title, description, url and used disk space
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add save_dir_size property to
        podcastChannel that contains the disk usage of the channel's save_dir;
        this can be manually updated by calling update_save_dir_size() and
        will automatically be updated when the GUI code hooks into the
        channel; also add get_cover_pixbuf() that returns a pixbuf of the
        cover for a given size or None if there is no valid cover file

Wed, 14 Nov 2007 19:19:11 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Slipstream code (enumerate instead of simple position tracking)
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Use enumerate() to iterate over a list
        of episodes instead of keeping track of the position "by hand"

Ignore initial window events from GtkWindow in Config

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add a flag to config manager to ignore window

        and size updates

Mon, 12 Nov 2007 20:25:39 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Improve caching for HTTP redirects and minor errors; cache clean-up

        * src/gpodder/cache.py: Cache content when it comes from a HTTP
        redirect (301, 302, 307); cache feeds even with parsing errors, so we
        can "fill" our cache and not download on every startup
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add cache clean-up code after loading
        channels; this should keep the feedcache.db file smaller for users
        that like to try out new channels (or have used gPodder for a while)

Sun, 11 Nov 2007 14:24:17 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Better file extension guessing for URLs

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Improve file_extension_from_url() by adding
        additional checks for known good extensions and recurse into the query
        string if it looks like an URL; this should fix compatibility problems
        for feeds with strange URLs; should provide more reliable guessing;
        thanks to Nicolas Quienot <niqooo@gmail.com> for the bug report

Fri, 09 Nov 2007 10:05:36 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix format_filesize() usage in episodes selector and podcastItem

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Use the correct (config-using) format_filesize()
        function to generate the total size string in the episode selector
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Use the correct (config-usig
        format_filesize() function to generate the total size string in
        podcastItem; thanks to Pieter De Decker <pdedecker@gmail.com> for
        pointing that out
        * data/gpodder.glade: Use "Preferences" instead of "Preferences..."
        which feels a bit better in the GUI

        positioning code to GladeWidget to be universally usable; update
        "Device" menu item on startup; new functions: delete_episode_list()
        and download_episode_list() that both operate on lists of episodes;
        add code for invoking gPodderEpisodeSelector for deleting old
        episodes; re-work on_itemDownloadAllNew_activate to use the episode
        selector instead of hand-crafting a message dialog text; add
        update_item_device() function that will handle the hiding, showing and
        renaming of the "Device" menu in the menubar; clean-up
        gPodderProperties with callback_finished setting (now kwarg-based);
        new, might, fancy, customizable and uber-sexy gPodderEpisodeSelector
        that will prove to be useful in some places in our codebase: it
        basically allows the user to select a subset of episodes from a given
        list in a quite sophisticated way; new "delete old episodes" menu item
        added for cleaning up gPodder's downloads
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add delete_from_disk() convenience
        method to podcastItem; other convenience properties and functions
        needed for the new episode selector dialog: pubdate_prop,
        get_filesize_string(), filesize_prop, get_channel_title(),
        channel_prop, get_played_string(), played_prop
        * data/gpodder.glade: new gPodderEpisode dialog; re-structuring of
        gPodder's main menu to be more usable and more compact; also added the
        Ctrl+K "Remove old episodes" menu item; also use the correct
        "multimedia-player" icon name of a not really representative icon

Support syncing to FS-based MP3 players without subfolders

        * data/gpodder.glade: Add checkbox "Create a subfolder for each
        channel" to preferences dialog and rename some widgets
        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add boolean "fssync_channel_subfolders"
        option that defaults to True (create subfolder for each channel)
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Hook up config option fssync_channel_subfolders
        to preferences dialog; do more intelligent widget hiding for the
        "Player" tab in the preferences dialog (only show relevant widgets)
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Only append channel name as subfolder to
        destination folder name when the "fssync_channel_subfolders" option is
        True; suggested by Paul Elliot <omahns.home@gmail.com>

Thu, 08 Nov 2007 11:28:17 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix offline cache behaviour when time is not set

        * src/gpodder/cache.py: Return cached_content in offline mode when
        cached_content "is not None" (instead of cached_time "is not None")

Tue, 06 Nov 2007 12:37:41 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Process events before connecting Config to gtk windows

        * data/gpodder.glade: Remove default size for main gPodder window, as
        this is now handled by the config manager
        * src/gpodder/config.py: Process GTK events in the event queue before
        connecting to the "configure-event" signal, so we won't get two
        configure events for the window for the initial size change

Mon, 05 Nov 2007 13:51:26 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Add error reporting when download fails because of an I/O error

        * src/gpodder/download.py: Catch and handle I/O errors in
        DownloadThread and format and pass on messages to GUI code when
        required; thanks to Florian Richter <Florian_Richter@gmx.de> for
        suggesting this feature after having a full disk
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Update tree view when adding a new episode;
        add new notification() method and pass this method through to
        DownloadThread, so it can present messages to the user (i.e. errors)

Mon, 05 Nov 2007 12:54:35 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Use util.find_command in more places (mplayer detection, ...)

        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Use util.find_command to detect the
        existence of the "gnome-btdownload" command and spit out a warning log
        message when the command is not available
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Use util.find_command to check for an
        installed mplayer binary (instead of relying on os.system("which...")

Mon, 05 Nov 2007 01:12:15 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Better command detection for the converter library

        * src/gpodder/libconverter.py: Detect existence of commands before
        invoking them for converting files; based on a patch by
        Nick (nikosapi.org); ConverterCollection is now a dict itself :)
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add new find_command() function that will
        search the system's PATH for a specific executable command

Mon, 05 Nov 2007 00:21:39 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Remove extracted cover art when deleting episode files

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Apply modified version of a patch from
        Nick (nikosapi.org) that is better suited for deleting cover art that
        has been extracted with the new eyeD3 cover art extraction code

Mon, 05 Nov 2007 00:17:12 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Patch from Nick (nikosapi) to support eyeD3 cover art extraction

        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Apply modified version of a patch from
        Nick (nikosapi.org) to utilize eyeD3 for cover art extraction in iPod
        sync code; remove dependency on PyID3
        * README: PyID3 is not a dependency anymore, as we can now use eyeD3
        for the same purpose (cover art extraction)

Sat, 03 Nov 2007 14:14:09 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Fix format_filesize() function to be standards-conformant (unit prefixes)

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Add "use_si_units" configuration option; if
        True, the user will see SI units (MB, kB, ...); if False (the
        default); the user will see binary-prefix units (MiB, KiB, ..)
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Add pass-through function
        "format_filesize()" to gPodderLib that combines the
        util.format_filesize function with the gPodder-specific config option
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Apply a modified patch from Gerrit Sangel
        <z0idberg@gmx.de> to add support for SI units and binary prefixes to
        format_filesize(); this makes the function standards-compliant
        * src/gpodder/download.py: Updated to use new format_filesize
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Updated to use new format_filesize
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Updated to use new format_filesize

Fri, 02 Nov 2007 17:28:05 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
New Configuration/Settings Manager; massive code clean-ups

        * src/gpodder/config.py: Added new Configuration Manager that
        automatically keeps track of saving changed values and is also able to
        watch GTK widgets for changes; this should simplify our settings
        management and give us a single place for maintaining settings
        * src/gpodder/download.py: Access settings from new config manager
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Make use of new config manager to connect
        widgets and settings from the GUI directly to the config manager;
        remove manual loading and saving of settings; auto-connect as much as
        possible in the gPodderProperties dialog to get real-time automatic
        configuration saving; fix the other code to use new config manager
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: MASSIVE code clean-up; removed lots of
        old cruft and dead code that has been lying around in libgpodder for
        some time now; remove configuration code; utilize config manager;
        unify DownloadHistory+PlaybackHistory in new HistoryStore class;
        reduce number of import statements
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Access settings from new config manager
        * src/gpodder/libplayers.py: Removed dotdesktop_command()
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Move locking functionality into this
        module, as locking is only used here; access config from new manager
        * src/gpodder/services.py: Use config manager to get settings
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add format_desktop_command() function, based on
        the dotdesktop_command() function from libplayers

Fri, 02 Nov 2007 07:49:38 +0100 <thp@perli.net>

        navigator context menu
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Add open_folder() method that will open
        the DE's default folder browser via "xdg-open"

Thu, 01 Nov 2007 15:29:00 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Limit filename on FS-based sync to 50 characters

        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Do not allow extremely long file names
        that could theoretically be generated by using data from RSS feeds;
        this is needed to make FAT-based drives work with files that would
        otherwise have file names that are too long

Wed, 31 Oct 2007 15:22:32 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Escape RSS-provided strings in Pango markup

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Escape strings in Pango markup

Add "Save episode to file" handling to episode list context menu

        * data/gpodder.glade: Use a stock "Save As" button for the "Copy
        episode to file" button
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add new show_copy_dialog() method to GladeWidget
        that shows a copy dialog where a user can copy a file to a selected
        destination (this is used for "Save episode to file"); use
        show_copy_dialog in "Save As" in gPodderEpisode; add "Save episode to
        folder" menu item in episode list context menu and use
        show_copy_dialog to carry out the user interaction

Sun, 28 Oct 2007 13:30:40 +0100 <thp@perli.net>
Allow "https://" URLs for episode URLs, as we can handle these, too

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Allow "https://" as a valid URL scheme, as we
        can handle https URLs, thanks to Aravind Seshadri
        <aravind@aravind.name> who initially reported this bug

Thu, 25 Oct 2007 14:00:01 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Sync videos to the "Video Podcasts" playlist instead of the "Video" menu

        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Merged patch from Nicolas Quienot
        <niqooo@gmail.com> to sync videos to the "Video Podcasts" menu instead
        of the "Videos" menu, as documented on http://ipodlinux.org/ITunesDB

sync_filename in podcastItem; cleanup; hide extra progressbar on transfer

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Use podcastItem's sync_filename(); hide the
        unnecessary second progressbar when only syncing one channel (i.e.
        when clicking on the "transfer" button in the main window
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Remove unneeded lexists import and
        warning; clean-up
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Use podcastItem's sync_filename()
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add sync_filename() to podcastItem,
        returns the custom_sync_name or the title of the episode, based on the
        user's configuration settings for FS-based MP3 player sync

Limit download progress status updates to reduce CPU load

        * src/gpodder/download.py: Limit the amount of status updates the
        download threads send to the DownloadStatusManager to one per second;
        this should make gPodder less CPU-intensive with many parallel
        downloads; thanks to Wilfred van Rooijen for reporting and testing

Tue, 02 Oct 2007 17:59:29 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Update channel models (icons) after iPod synchronization

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Call update_model() on each channel after an
        iPod sync, so we can update the played state on the available episodes
        lists when played state was changed by the iPod sync

Sat, 29 Sep 2007 14:12:15 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Fix loading of channel metadata (load auth data and settings)

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Load channel metadata when loading a
        podcastChannel object from OPML/LocalDB. This fixes a problem with
        authentication data being not loaded and also fixes a bug when the
        custom-set channel title was not correctly used throughout the GUI.
        Thanks to Nick (nikosapi) for reporting and providing a patch

Tue, 25 Sep 2007 22:02:19 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Finally remove Desktop symlink code; several compatibility fixes

        * src/gpodder/download.py: Prevent divide-by-zero errors when
        calculating download speed
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Prevent divide-by-zero errors when calculating
        percentage done in code for moving the downloaded items folder
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Remove the "Symlink on Desktop" code,
        because it's not GUI-accessible anymore and we didn't use it anyway
        * src/gpodder/opml.py: Better local filename detection by using
        os.path.exists() instead of .startswith('/'); this is also good for
        cross-platform compatibility where parts don't usually start with a
        forward slash (i.e. Win32)

Mon, 24 Sep 2007 00:09:44 +0200 <thp@perli.net>

Fri, 21 Sep 2007 00:32:51 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Center gPodderEpisode on treeAvailable for less mouse hopping

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: If possible, center the gPodderEpisode dialog
        window on the treeAvailable, because that makes the position of the
        opened dialog more predictable and easier to use (as if the
        gPodderEpisode dialog was "inside" the treeView from which it opened)

Fri, 21 Sep 2007 00:07:49 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Don't translate feed format string examples

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Don't mark format string examples as

Wed, 19 Sep 2007 16:57:41 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Removed channel combobox, drag'n'drop improvements + new channel cover editor

        * data/gpodder.glade: Remove comboAvailable in gPodder (main window);
        add download+clear button in gPodderChannel, rename some items that
        are now used in code; make the channel navigator non-shrinkable (so
        it is always visible, because we don't have comboAvailable anymore)
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Remove support for the channel combo box,
        also known as comboAvailable; clean-up DND code and make treeChannels
        the only DND target in the main window; remove some unnecessary
        updating of the channel list (calls to updateComboBox);
        Changes for the gPodderChannel dialog: Don't automatically download
        channel cover when dialog pops up; add "Download" and "Clear" buttons
        to the cover editor; add DND support for dropping local files or
        images from the web browser to the cover editor (for setting custom
        covers on channels with bad or no cover)
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Don't abort get_image_from_url() if the
        URL is invalid, but the image has already been downloaded (because we
        read the downloaded image in the code when it exists, without URL)

Wed, 19 Sep 2007 14:23:40 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Center feed update dialog on main window; scroll reset in chan.navigator
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Reset the current scroll position of the channel
        navigator when re-loading the channel list; this fixes an annoyance
        that Alistair Sutton <alistair.sutton@gmail.com> reported when dealing
        with a HUGE channel list (more than 50 channels); also removed the
        scroll position reset code from treeAvailable, as we already managed
        to only edit the model instead of re-loading it every time; added code
        to really center the feed update dialog on gPodder's main window

Tue, 18 Sep 2007 20:15:56 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Replace wget with new gpodder.download module; User-agent support

        * bin/gpodder: Set "gpodder.user_agent" field on startup; remove check
        for wget, as this is not needed anymore
        * src/gpodder/cache.py: Clean-up; remove old logging code; add support
        for gpodder.user_agent; log info when there is an error in parsing the
        feed, so the user knows why this feed is not cached
        * src/gpodder/console.py: Remove DownloadPool, Use new
        gpodder.download module for carrying out downloads, remove
        wget_version() tester, as this is not needed anymore =)
        * src/gpodder/download.py: Added new downloader module that uses
        urllib and some custom classes and functions to provide the equivalent
        functionality of the obsolete "libwget", but without the wget
        dependency and with better accuracy (progress reporting, etc..)
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Utilize new gpodder.download module instead of
        libwget
        * src/gpodder/__init__.py: Add "user_agent" variable to the gpodder
        module that holds the value of the "User-agent" header to send to web
        servers when requesting OPMLs, Feeds or download data
        * src/gpodder/opml.py: Add support for sending the User-agent header
        * src/gpodder/services.py: Make the progress column a float column to
        have smoother progress indicuation; add the "acquired" keyword
        argument to s_release(); default 'speed' to a translated "Queued"
        * src/gpodder/libwget.py: Removed
        * doc/dev/redhat-wget-output.txt: Removed

Offline support for feedcache, faster startup, code simplification

        * src/gpodder/cache.py: Add support for "offline" keyword argument
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Make intelligent use of "offline" keyword
        argument when passed to load_channels(); simplify code for selecting
        the active channel in updateComboBox()
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Pass-through of "offline" keyword
        argument in all relevant function calls

Sat, 15 Sep 2007 16:22:28 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
New LocalDB using DOM (removes python-xml dependency); channel context menu

        * bin/gpodder: Don't check for xml.sax package and modules anymore, as
        the dependency on python-xml has been removed with this release
        * data/gpodder.glade: Remove the "info" button for the current channel
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Remove localdb-related code and adopt code for
        new LocalDB code; add context menu to channel navigator (edit/delete)

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Merge code from old liblocaldb and
        liblocdbreader/liblocdbwriter to this module as LocalDBWriter and
        LocalDBReader; customize podcastChannel to new LocalDB code
        * src/gpodder/libwget.py: Remove localdb-specific code (now obsolete)

Fix a bug when traversing directories with loop symlinks

        * src/gpodder/util.py: Don't dive into subdirectories that are
        symbolic links, this is to avoid a situation where looping symlinks
        result in the function dead-locking in a endless recursive loop,
        thanks to Bjørn Rasmussen <bjoernr@sensewave.com> for pointing that
        out and providing the necessary bug report to fix this issue

Mark episodes as downloaded/deleted when deleting episodes

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Rename "Mark [...] as downloaded" to "Mark [...]
        as deleted" and mark episodes as downloaded when removing selected
        episodes that have not been downloaded yet, as suggested by Holger
        Leskien <holger leskien.com>
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Fix problem when trying to delete
        episodes that have not been downloaded

Support for customized file names in MP3 player sync code

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Add supporting code for reading/setting
        configuration options for the preferences dialog and a help display
        code that displays a guide on how to write custom sync name strings
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: New configuration options:
        custom_sync_name (holds format string) and
        custom_sync_name_enabled (boolean, if the above string should be used)
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Use custom sync name format string and
        util's object_string_formatter() function to obtain a file name for
        the synchronized episode (or default to episode.title if disabled)
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Add new property methods to podcastItem:
        basename (returns the basename of the URL, without extension) and
        published (returns the pubDate of the episode in YYYYMMDD format)
        * src/gpodder/util.py: New object_string_formatter() method that
        replaces {OBJECTNAME.ATTRNAME} substrings in a string with the
        corresponding values of passed-in keyword argument objects
        * data/gpodder.glade: Added preferences GUI elements

Wed, 05 Sep 2007 10:14:09 +0200 <thp@perli.net>

Sun, 02 Sep 2007 14:23:17 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
More sanitizing hacks for ugly feeds we don't really like

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Negotiate which enclosure to select from
        multiple enclosures, if there are more than one available; skip
        episodes with a buggy download URL (i.e. no supported URL scheme)
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Return "(unknown)" if file size cannot be
        determined from the string passed to format_filesize(); return "None"
        in file_type_by_extension() if the extension is an empty string

Fri, 31 Aug 2007 23:38:01 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Handle enclosures (or lack thereof) better if fields are missing

        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Remove refetch_channel_list() function, as this
        is not called anywhere from the code (uh, how did i miss that?)
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Be more liberal to enclosure tags
        without length or mime type; ignore episodes without enclosures (it's
        not len(enclosures) == 0, but the enclosures attribute doesn't even
        exist on entries without enclosures, so make sure to check for that

Fri, 31 Aug 2007 20:03:03 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Use Python's webbrowser module for URL opening; channel dialog clean-up

        * bin/gpodder: Set version to 0.9.5+svn (this is where we are now)
        * data/gpodder.glade: Remove "cancel" button from gPodderChannel
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Use "webbrowser" module for URL opening instead
        of relying on "gnome-open" to be available; remove event handler for
        gPodderChannel's "cancel" button

Thu, 30 Aug 2007 21:06:28 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Dependency check for python-feedparser in bin/gpodder

        * bin/gpodder: Add dependency check and warning (with exit) if
        python-feedparser is not installed, as python-feedparser now is a
        dependency of gPodder

Thu, 30 Aug 2007 20:51:46 +0200 <thp@perli.net>

        DownloadHistory to support removing items from the history list;
        enhance history_mark_{played,downloaded}() functions for add/delete

Thu, 30 Aug 2007 20:46:48 +0200 <thp@perli.net>
Improved pubDate parsing; episode delete bugfix

        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Let feedparser parse the pubDate field
        of episodes and use new function in gpodder.util to convert the parsed
        pubDate to a string; bugfix for remove downloaded episode by URL
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Add updated_parsed_to_rfc2822() function that
        converts the "updated_parsed" field from feedparser to a RFC2822
        string

Last batch of experimental change merges (up to svn r398)

        * doc/dev/tepache-howto.txt: Removed
        * doc/dev/tepache: Removed
        * src/gpodder/gui.py.orig: Removed
        * src/gpodder/libwget.py: Send progress = 0.0 on inital status update
        * src/gpodder/libpodcasts.py: Try to get episode metadata from several
        different properties of the corresponding feedparser entries; warn
        user when we couldn't get the episode title and try to get the episode
        title from the filename of the URL if we still have not found an
        episode title
        * src/gpodder/libgpodder.py: Add get_device_name() that returns a
        "nice" representative string of the currently selected device that can
        be used to represent the device in the GUI
        * src/gpodder/util.py: Return "(unknown)" string when bytesize in
        format_filesize() when the size has a negative value; make
        get_tree_icon() catch errors and be more corrent with icon creation;
        add get_first_line() function that extracts the first line of a string
        * src/gpodder/libipodsync.py: Add "divx" to list of video extensions
        * src/gpodder/services.py: DownloadStatusManager has a new observer
        notification: "progress-detail"; add unregister() functionality for
        observers; add request_progress_detail() function that can be used to
        force a "progress-detail" notification to be sent out to all relevant
        observers; remove get_url_by_iter() function as it is not needed
        anymore
        * src/gpodder/gui.py: Clean-up after tepache dependency removal; new
        GladeWidget base class that subclasses SimpleGladeApp and simplifies
        class creation for our gPodder windows; add context menu to
        treeAvailable; re-work play_or_download() and make it return a list of
        boolean indicators on which actions can be performed on the selected
        items; move show_message() and show_confirmation() to GladeWidget;
        disable editing of the URL in the channel info dialog, this simplifies
        code and editing the URL doesn't make so much sense anyway (adding the
        new url and removing the old does the same and is easier, code-wise);
        add support for cancelling downloads in the available podcasts view;
        support live status view and download cancelling in the gPodderEpisode
        dialog window by hooking up to DownloadStatusManager as observer
        * src/gpodder/SimpleGladeApp.py: Customize for gPodder (remove usage
        of weakref for keyword arguments -> properties of new object)

        * Makefile: Removed support for tepache

        * src/gpodder/services.py: New module that currently contains the
        improved DownloadStatusManager and a single object that servces as
        download status manager for all parts of gpodder
