Yass Reloaded 2024.9
Features
FFmpeg support
Yass Reloaded now supports and even recommends FFmpeg.
This means that when editing Ultrastar songs, the audio file is converted to a temporary file (in PCM WAV) format (in a separate folder, so don't worry. None of your existing audio files are tampered with). This brings the advantage, that all audio formats that FFmpeg supports can now be used. This extends the audio format support e. g. by OGG and OPUS. Another advantage is, that this also overcomes some sync issues that JavaFX had during playback especially within the first second.
USDB Syncer Meta-Tag file
If songs are downloaded from https://usdb.animux.de using the USDB Syncer, the meta-file will now be parsed, when pre-fills the USDB Syncer Meta-Tag Creation Tool.
You can also add this entry in your user.xml
<entry key="usdbsyncer-always-pin">true</entry>
This will "pin" the song once you make changes in Yass Reloaded yourself and write-protect it from any change when you open the USDB syncer. Please note, that if you activate this, you will not retrieve any updated songs! If you are making changes that are improvements to a song, please always consider updating it directly in USDB, so that everybody can benefit from it!
Toggle apostrophe ending
Sometimes, gerunds (e. g. going, talking, singing) in lyrics are omitting the ending 'g', but have not been mapped as such, or the other way around. If you select words ending with "ing", you can now simply type in an apostrophe, and the editor will toggle between a "g" and an apostrophe (e. g. making a "singing" to a "singin'"
Bugfixes
- Fixed incorrect saving of START and END tag
- USDB Syncer Meta-Tag generator added medley=0-0 tag, even though no medley information was given
