Release notes 

Welcome to the Blacklight 0.2 release!

This release has not had a lot of testing. Please report any problems as you see them.

There is sadly no new GUI package. As far as the open-source GUI goes, I don't forsee any updates. I am considering continuing development of the GUI under a closed-source license in conjunction with my new project. The good news is that this will help fund development of the GUI rather than have it languish under non-development like it is currently.

The command-line package will continue to be open-source under the GPL, and will continue development as necessary. No need to worry about that.

Please see the Changelog for information about what's new in the CLI package!

1. It's now possible to specify the path of the Walkman's video directory, in case you have it mounted somewhere unusual. You can do this via:

--path <path_to_walkman_video_directory>

2. I just obtained a new 32-gigabyte X-series Walkman, and noticed that it now supports mpeg4 files up to 2.5mbps! Before, the limit was 768 kilobits per second. Of course, the X-series has a bigger and higher-quality screen (yes, the OLED is even better than the LCD screens on the earlier Walkmans!), so you can really use the extra quality to prevent blocking artifacts.

You can use this option like this:

--high-quality

(no short option)

This higher quality mode is 2 megabits per second and is unlikely to work on earlier Walkmans. Blacklight3 gives you a warning anyway in case you didn't read this changelog, the man page or the --help :-)
