MP3 Streaming DownSampler for PHP

This release replaces a PHP5-only function call with a PHP4-friendly solution. It adds support for FLAC downsampling.

This is a maintenance and security release. Upgrading is highly recommended if you are running 3.0 on a system where PHP is configured with register_globals 'On'. Other changes include altered defaults for the folder browser and some display tweaks.

This version features Ogg Vorbis streaming downsampled support, regular expression searching, a jscrip folder browser, shuffling/random playlists based on tree location, and Javascript-free PDA support (people have streamed from palm Treos and other handheld computing devices). The documentation and style have been tweaked. There are now tar download options, Altavista image art lookup, and display theme options.

This release adds a new search feature, icons, bugfixes, major file
layout cleanups, more display configuration options, support for
defining themes, and on-the-fly tarball generation for directories. Note
that as this is a prerelease, some functionality that is intended to be
in the final release will not be present, such as controls to enable or
disable the tarball generation.

This release features powerful and accessible user customization via a preferences window. It will scan directories for album art to display, as can be seen in the screenshot. It utilizes getID3, which comes packaged and configured to work with mp3SDS out of box. Many internal enhancements and security bounds checks have been added. With all changes, careful attention has been paid to make sure that it feels just as fast as it did in previous releases, even with the great amount of new features.
