  Latest Version: 0.964
Mainly a bugfix release with some small improvements.

- fixed gnome multimedia keys plugin to work with gnome 2.22
- updated the "picture finder" plugin to work with current google image pages
- fixed the "remove existing" option for comments in mass-tagging dialog
- fixed behaviour of the previous button
- some fixes to the equalizer support
- fixed small bug with random modes and labels/genres : a rule for a label/genre abcd would match any label/genre containing abcd
- fixed small bug with filters and multiple artist separator : a filter matching many artists (>=5) used the old hard-coded artist-separator ' ?& ?' : "artist is a or b or c or d or e" wouldn't match a song with artist 'a, x & y' and would match 'a & z', ignoring the setting for artist-separator
- get the year from TDRC fields of id3v2.4 tags if present
- the columns' width of the SongList can now be reduced beyond their title's width
- fixed the 'between' filter
- fixed date edition in the filter edition dialog
- improved the way the TogButton and MenuItem (with the togglewidget option) update its toggled state, it's now much simpler and should be always right
- fixed drawing problems of the lyrics in some conditions (caused by other parts of the code setting the clip of the style's GCs)
- fixed bitrate info for mpc files

small improvements :
- improved the horizontal scrollbars behavior (in SongList, SongTree and FPanes) : the mouse wheel will scroll vertically instead of horizontally when the slider is pressed (inspired by galeon). And vice-versa for the vertical scrollbars.
- smoother title/artist/album name scrolling (scroll 1 pixel at a time instead of 5)
- added option to stop screensaver when in fullscreen and playing (using xdg-screensaver).
- added filters for "no genres" and "no labels"
- added a confirmation dialog with timeout before quitting and lauching the turn-off command
- added a widget option to change the mouse cursor when it hovers over it (eg : cursor=hand2)
- the mouse cursor now change into a hand when it hovers over the current title/album/artist
- added a clear button to the SimpleSearch widget and put its button inside the entry frame
- the tango icon theme now use a nice tray icon made by Piotr.
- added a 'view' menu to the itunes-like layout
- added the 'added', 'modif' and 'lastplay' tab to the FPane. They have 3 grouping mode : year, month and day. And they can be displayed in cloud mode. Currently 'modif' is not used by default, but can be specified in the layout. (In the next version, it will be possible to add/remove tabs with a right-click menu)
