Coolplayer 2.09 released

Get the latest 209 for some bug fixes and support for ID3v2 tags. Also there is a new TrackLength column in the playlist. One final thing is the Background loading of ID3 tags - this will be good for all those people who have '000s of files in their playlists but don't want to wait for CP to load all of their tags ;)

From the changelog;
+ Fixed minimise and maximise on playlist
+ Added support for ID3v2 (read and write)
+ Fixed systray tooltip icon not showing artist and song title
+ Fixed some memory bugs (would have shown up as occasional crashes during closedown)
+ Fixed problem resizing the last column
+ Added background load of ID3 tags (this will prevent the delays on loading huge playlists)
+ Added track length to playlist - right hand click in the track's "Length" column to (re)calculate (these are stored in the ID3v2 tag)
+ Fixed track stack advancing over the next song if you remove the current song from the playlist
+ Fixed the volume setting to 100% at the start of every song (affected only a few soundcard/driver combinations)
+ Fixed occasional POP between songs (in OGG and MP3)
 
Thanks BVV --

It's tiny, sounds very quick and clean, & has some nicish skins available. Is it me, or does it seem less 'muddy' than winamp 2.81 with DFX?

Clean, but fortunately the sound is still "warm", just the way I like it. Unlike the clinical, sterile and cold (if you know what I mean) Winamp-MAD combination. I thought that sounded pretty good at first, but after a while it got tiring and irritating.
