What's new!

    - Song information from the decoder is now loaded in playlist.
    - Server name and genre are now loaded in playlist.
    - Streaming title is up and running!
    - Fixed possible crash on corrupted playlists.
    - Reduced flickering when resizing and moving playlist, playlist
      manager and other windows.
    - Implemented bookmark system!  Bookmarks are loaded in the main
      menu directly, making them easy to use.
    - Root directories can now be loaded from the file dialog kludge.
    - Loaded directories using the file dialog kludge are now saved.
    - Defaults and Undo do not double plug-ins entries anymore,
      although they still do not do anything useful for plug-ins.
    - Added "Save stream" in main menu to save data on disk before it
      is decoded.
    - Comments from songs are now loaded in the main window.
    - Fixed inconsistency problem when stopping song in playlist and
      pressing play again.
    - Fixed tracking problems for plug-ins configure dialog.
    - Added new wavout.dll plug-in.
    - Different output plug-ins can now be activated.
    - Increased stack size.
    - Trying to open various dialogs now get focus when they are
      already opened.
    - Fixed loading Songname in playlist.
    - Fixed loading/playing songs using the pipe.
    - Fixed annoying crash in OS2AUDIO.DLL.
    - Fixed analyzer first and last band (although they don't really
      show)
    - Changed pm123.ini format, now uses safe OS/2 INI APIs.
      ***DELETE YOUR OLD INI FILE!!***
    - Last .EQ file loaded are now reloaded on startup.
    - Changed .EQ file format.  Now saves the gain in floating point
      value, instead of system dependent pixel slider values.
    - It is now possible to open more than one instance of the PM123
      process. Pipes created by the new processes will be
      \pipe\pm123_2 and \pipe\pm123pl_2, and successive instances
      will increment that number in their pipe names.
    - Visual plug-ins with cx or cy smaller or equal to 0 will no
      longer be deinit and reinit when changing main window size
      (tiny, small, normal).
    - Load Track dialog now keeps in memory last drive used and
      automatically refreshes.
    - CD Tracks can now be loaded in the playlist.
    - analyzer.dll does not crash anymore if DIVE cannot be
      allocated.
    - Playlist entry emphasis is no longer changed on each entry
      added to the playlist.
    - "*volume" pipe command now also returns the current volume.
    - fixed +/- keyboard volume hotkeys
    - relative paths to plug-ins in skins are now relative to
      pm123.exe

mpg123.dll 1.10 in pm123 1.1 beta 2
===================================

- Implemented title streaming code, and code for "Save stream".
- SHOUTcast and icecast server information now passed on to pm123
  with decoder_fileinfo().
- Fixed problem with calculation of average bitrate, and of seeking,
  for VBR MP3s.
- Increased first MPEG header from 10K to 128K.  I hope this is
  enough for all MP3s with bitmaps (yes images geez) before the MP3
  itself.
- Should not crash on corrupted Xing VBR headers anymore.
- Read ahead buffer thread now runs at critical priority, so no more
  skip when read ahead buffer is activated.
