[Pjbexploder-announce] Version 1.0.45 released

[Michael H. <mi...@ho...>]

1.0.45 is now released.  This adds Podcasting functionality to
pjbExploder, plus some misc improvements to the MP3 player.

To use Podcasts, there are two new menu items under 'Tools'.

Selecting 'Edit Podcasts...' lets you edit the podcasts that
pjbExploder will check.

Selecting 'Update Podcasts...'  will check for additions and deletions
to your podcasts, updating the PJB as required.

There are also 4 new options, available under "Tools / Options".

'Automatically Sync PJB' will run the same code as 'Tools/Sync PJB..'
as soon as pjbExploder connects to the PJB.

'Automatically update Podcasts' will run the same code as
'Tools/Update Podcasts...' as soon as pjbExploder connects to the PJB.

'Max items per Channel' and 'Limit item age' control how many items
from a Podcast channel are downloaded to the PJB.  I hope the names
are self explanatory.

If you use the podcast features, I welcome feedback!  Please tell me
what does (and doesn't) work for you, or what would improve it.

For the player, I have made it more responsive - hitting 'Play' or
'Next' now starts playing almost immediately, rather than the few
seconds delay it had before.  I also reworked the plumbing so that
it's more efficient internally.

Misc changes:
- This release built with VS 2005.
- Update installer to latest version.

This is available for download 'in the usual place':
