After a few months of work we released CherryPlayer 2.0.9 where we mostly focused on a few things:
- improving player perfomance;
- reduce memory usage;
- complete re-writing working with playlists;
- prepare structure to add some new features fast in next releases.

So if you install 2.0.9 and compare it with 2.0.8 then you probably will not find much changes from start except of fixed YouTube playback/downloading and Zajcev.net playback. But 2.0.9 has a lot of fixes that did not work properly in 2.0.8 version.

29. Fixed long player exit after adding a lot of files from disk to playlist and close player when metadata is beeing parsed still.
30. Reduced number of data updates for row in playlist UI after parsing item metadata to 1 update instead of 1-3 before.

47. Reduced a lot memory usage during scrolling playlist.

During testing new version we can see less memory usage in 2-3 times if compare to old player version. With improved scrolling playlist we have very big improvement - in some cases new version uses up to 12 times less memory for the same playlist. For example, loading and scrolling by mouse wheel 17k items in new version takes 23MB, in old version the same takes 80MB, if consider that player with empty playlist takes 18MB then we have 62/5 = 12 times less memory usage.

CherryPlayer 2.1.1 released!

Вышел CherryPlayer 2.1.1, в котором добавлено несколько новых возможностей среди которых, к примеру, возможность дополнительно скачивать с YouTube только Видео (без аудио) и только Аудио (без видео); возможность перейти к проигрываемому треку по одному нажатию на кнопке, расположенной на верхней панеле; возможность просматривать до 200 видео в каждом YouTube топ плейлисте. Также в 2.1.1 исправлены довольно серьезные ошибки, обнаруженные в версии 2.1.0 и предыдущих версиях. Мы советуем обновить плеер до новой версии 2.1.1.

Спасибо за рост интереса к плееру с Вашей стороны, благодаря вашим комментариям были обнаружены некоторые баги, которые были исправлены в 2.1.1. Пожалуйста, не стесняйтесь , и обращайтесь на support@cherryplayer.com в случае найденного бага, либо с пожеланиями или идеями по поводу добавления актуальных и новых возможностей в плеер. Мы отмечаем все интересные предложения/идеи и добавляем их по-немногу в плеер с каждым новым релизом.

Список добавлений и исправлений в 2.1.1 следующий.

Новые возможности:

1. В диалоговом окне скачивания с YouTube дополнительно добавлены опции загрузить:
- только Видео (без аудио) 144p, 240p, 360p, 480p, 720p и 1080p разрешения;
- только Аудио (без видео) 48kbit/s, 128 kbit/s, 192 kbit/s и 256 kbit/s битрейт.
2. Увеличино количество видео, показываемое в YouTube топ плейлистах, до 200 видео. Каждое нажатие на кнопку "Показать больше" подгружает дополнительно 50 видео в YouTube топ плейлист.
3. Добавлена кнопка "Показать проигрываемое аудио/видео" на веррхней панели. Нажатие на эту кнопку показывает проигрываемый плейлист с проигрываемым треком/видео в центре плейлиста.
4. Добавлено автоматическое скролирование левой панели вверх/вниз, если во время перетаскивания файлов на левую панель курсор мыши будет находиться вверху/внизу левой панели.

3. Исправлено неправильно отображающиеся не-английские (в том числе и русские) символы в результатах поиска SoundCloud.
4. Исправлено некорректная работа "Enter" в плейлисте. Это ошибка появилась в версии 2.1.0 после добавления поддержки выбора нескольких элементов в плейлисте. Например, из-за этой ошибки по нажатию "Enter" на выделенном новом треке/видео могло начаться повторное проигрывание предыдущего проигрываемого трека/видео, либо могло начаться проигрывание совсем другого (невыделенного) трека/видео.
5. Исправлено некорректная работа переименования плейлиста. Во время переименования плейлиста его имя отображалось дважды (одно поверх другого) и переименование не работало. Эта ошибка могла стать причиной возникновения других взаимосвязанных ошибок.
6. Исправлено неработающее добавление трека/видео по "+" из результатов поиска в любой плейлист пользователя. Это ошибка появилась в версии 2.1.0 после добавления поддержки выбора нескольких элементов в плейлисте.
7. Исправлено иногда отсутствующее последнее видео в результатах поиска с YouTube.
8. Исправлен иногда отсутствующий разделитель между различными доступными форматами для загрузки в меню "выбора качества загрузки" в окне загрузки.

10. Поиск музыки со всех источников возвращает результаты быстрее.
