Orange Squeeze 1.2.0 released
It's that time again -- I'm happy to announce the release of Orange Squeeze 1.2.0, an Android-based frontend for your favorite Squeezebox hardware. It should be available now on all of the normal marketplaces -- Google Play, AndroidPIT and SlideME.

This release reflects the most work since our initial release, by far. The main focus of this release is on browsing enhancements, adding support for "Jive"-style browsing and player updates. This means support for the server-side plugins that many of you love (e.g. biography and custombrowse + friends). I've got to extend a very special thanks to a dedicated team of beta testers.
Oh, and it's still only $0.99 (or a rough equivalent) and still supports Android devices 1.6 and higher.
Here's the changelog:
New features:
- Uses new communications framework that mimics the behavior of SqueezePlay, SqueezeBox Touch and Squeezebox Radio devices.
- Supports a wide variety of server plugins that alter the browsing characteristics of Squeezebox devices.
- Item pinning allows the addition of certain higher-level menu items to the home menu.
- Supports disabling artist artwork in preferences, if desired.
- Indicator when network-driven popups are being loaded
Bug fixes:
- Fix crash on launch if database upgrade failed or was incomplete.
- Volume button was not visible in landscape mode in "Now Playing" on some devices.
- Better and more graceful handling when network connection drops.
- Fix certain crashes when loading the artist list, due to problems building the artist artwork.
- Plenty of stability improvements; too many to list individually.
- A failed connection attempt via "Switch Server" no longer ends the existing connection.
