26. March 1999.

    MPGScript 4.21 released. It cames sooner than planned, but, since my country is in war with NATO, I do not know when I will be able to work on it. This version is fully functional and presents new stuff: users can create their own macros, limited support for VBR files, new predefined macros, template import and export option, RTF CD Cover Page template. Registration from countries members of NATO and supporters for their aggression on my country are requred for additional humanitarian aid fee. Collected money goes for humanitarian purposes.

    MPEG Audio frame header specifications updated.

    MPEG Audio Frame Header specification (mpeghdr.htm) document updated due to feedback I received from users.

    WARNING! I decided to change name for MP3List application since there are lots of tools with similar name which makes confusion. MP3List will be called MPGScript in future. It will be released as version 4.0. You will find lots of changes including simpler and easier user interface.

    New version of MP3List released (PR12). Some bugfixes done. Now, when exporting to m3d file, you may specify volume label you want to be set for all records.

    When I rewrote MPEG header decoding routine I made small mistake which resulted MP3List not to be able to calculate song duration. This is corrected in version 3.2 PR9.

8.Aug.1998.

    Mp3List Version 3.2 PR8 was made first publicly available version. This is still prerelease since there will probably be some changes or additions, according to user feedback. However aplication is fully functional.
