Upgrade to Dapper Drake just get the stable Amarok 1.4?
Thursday 18th May, 2006 | 7:28 pmWith Amarok throwing a wobbler and crashing once a day or so, and knowing that it’s only a couple of weeks until Dapper Drake makes it to final, is it worth waiting until 1st June or run an upgrade now and grab the shiny new Amarok 1.4 release?
I ran it when I first started playing with the 64-bit system and had Dapper, using Amarok 1.4-beta1 + beta2, and really liked some of the extra features such as *much* better media player support for my iPod Nano and Archos AV500, but since the rest of my system is so stable, I don’t want to risk upgrading just yet. Plus, I fired off some scripts a few weeks ago converting anything in .wma or .aac format to mp3 which means I’m not really needing Amarok 1.4 for updated taglib support for writing aac tags.
But, I’m a technology whore as someone recently describe me, and on cue, Amarok has just crashed
