Re: LimeWire 3.9.1 Beta Quote: Originally posted by sberlin We've released the LimeWire 3.9.1 beta, with the pro version available from a link on your pro download page, and the free version available from the LimeWire download page.
Changes in 3.9.1 include:
- Better detection of all unhandled errors.
- Support for a future change of requesting certain file types.
- OOB Proxying, which means that even hosts that are firewalled can take advantage of super-fast out-of-band queries.
- Better use of invalid locations in downloaders, allowing failed locations to be retried after a long enough period of inactivity (submitted by Gregorio Roper).
- Better intelligence about when to not do OOB queries, so that hosts who incorrectly set it can still receive results.
- Icons for the file types in search results, uploads, downloads, and the library. This currently requires Java 1.4 or higher on Windows to correctly get the native icons -- we're exploring ways for it to work with Java 1.3 on Windows. (It always works on OSX, and will likely never work on Mac Classic.)
- A new 'Change Language' mention option under View in the menu bar.
As more 3.9 betas are released, more features will likely be added, including:
- THEX support.
- DAAP support, for iTunes integration on Windows too.
- Socks Proxying / HTTP Tunneling support.
- Upload slot memory.
- Better detection of features on the uploader or downloader.
- Many many code optimizations.
- ID3v2 support.
- Filters for search results.
... and many other additions, both in the interface and internally.
Thank you for your help in testing the betas!
