videos and feeds)

• New audio podcast section of the Miro Guide

• Better interface for audio playback

• Button to download from YouTube when you add as sidebar site – also see: <

>

• Smarter handling of bittorrent files, especially videos

• New Library interface with ‘Video’, ‘Audio’, and ‘Other’ sections

• New keyboard shortcuts for virtually all functions (great for programming
a remote control)

• Interface polish and refinement

• Easier hacking: the database layer was rewritten to use a simplified
SQLite schema and we’ve created a new developer documentation site. <
