Works with Songbird 0.6pre - 0.6.*

Nightly builds are now located at http://wiki.songbirdnest.com/Developer/Articles/Builds/Nightly_Builds

Version 1.5
1. Album art manager window will now use RDF so the user can filter on albums.
2. Metadata fetcher will now work and is priority 1.
3. More fixes to code that saves the cover images.

Version 1.4.2
This is just a fix in the install.rdf so that it is not compatible with 0.7 since 1.4.* and lower will not work on the 0.7 version of Songbird. Version 1.5 is coming out soon.

Version 1.4.1
Yaaa, I put in checks to make sure we don't use invalid file system characters :).
Also added the ability to delete cover files when you clear the cover in the manager window.

Version 1.4.0
Lots of fixes and some cool new stuff for this version.
1. Major fixed for the library scanner, this version is more reliable and now uses better file handling for cover names.
2. Fixed some issues with the main service regarding detecting proper download location for cover.
3. Added new fetcher priority manager so users can select order in which fetchers are used for searching for covers.
4. Updated alert notification popup to use colors from the current theme.
5. Added option to view either the selected or now playing cover art in the display pane.
6. Updated the preferences page layout.
7. When searching for covers in the manager window the spinner now has a green background so it is easier to see.
8. Improved the "Fetch Covers" logic so it will work a bit faster and better.
9. Fixed some bugs:
Bug 9674 - Typo in AmazonFetcher service.
Bug 9805 - Manager displaying -1 if no albums found.
10. Added Last.FM Cover Fetcher as another add on: http://addons.songbirdnest.com/addon/1215

Notes:
Metadata fetcher appears in the fetcher priority list but does not operate at this time since the functionality required is missing from Songbird (Bug 9033)

Version 1.3.3
New art for missing album cover :), big thanks to Koshi!

Version 1.3.2
Not much just some clean up.

Version 1.3.1
1. Fixed verision problem in build (no more dev and uses last version number)
2. Service pane should display Current Cover on first run now.
3. Changed preferences so that cover format is always used.
4. Default cover format to %artist% - %album% now.

Version 1.3.0
1. Added a Fetch Missing Covers button to search for any missing covers.
2. Fixed some minor issues with unattended cover fetching.

Version 1.2.1
1. Fixed issue with covers being overwritten if they are downloaded from Amazon even if there is already a file existing. Bug 9121
2. Fixed logic for when to display notification, now you don't get 2 notifications when artwork is needed to be fetched.

Version 1.1.1
1. Fixed issues with manager window not able to load albums
2. Fixed issues with cover preview window showing errors. Bug 9146
3. Fixed not selecting a region by default.
4. Fixed unable to fetch covers on windows.

Version 1.1.0
1. Major back end changes:
2. Moved albumartmanager window to use the dynamic sbICoverFetchers.
3. Added locales to amazon fetcher so other language sites (like .ca or .fr) can be used
4. Moved the cover downloader to its own component so it can be used by the fetchers
5. Allow use of data urls, this is in prep for the metadata fetcher.
6. Cleaned up spinner on albumartmanager when searching for cover.
7. Added album cover preview (Left click album in albumartmanager window)
8. Moved menu pop up in albumartmanager to right click only.
9. Added like to amazon for buying other albums from the same artist. (mouse over now playing cover)
10. Changed to decodeURI and encodeURI for other languages.
11. Use the SBString to load strings where possible.
12. Use XPCOMUtils for components.
13. Use LibraryUtils for cleaner code.
14. Cleaned up the sbIAlbumArtService init function so it does not load as many components.
15. Use the catagory manager to find all the CoverFetchers so they are more dynamic. Could even be added with other extensions.
16. Cleaned up the getAlbumArtWork function so it does not spend as much time searching for the artwork, by doing the more obvious searches first.
17. Removed unnecessary getEnumerateContinue function so this will not work with 0.4 anymore.
18. Added generateDataURI function for future use to remove the saving covers as files requirement (we will be able to save them in the db).
19. Added ability to use each fetcher until cover is found.
20. Added Metadata fetcher that will be enabled once functionality is added to the metadata handler.

Version 1.0.2
1. Proper update of extension on this page, still wasn't working 100% all the time.

Version 1.0.1
* Very sorry, 2 bugs crept up in the packaging of the extension.
1. It was defined for only linux x86 :P (now removed since this is all OS)
2. It was not adding the xpt files for the services so they were not available.

Version 1.0.0
With some help from Ian version 1.0 is now complete, pending bugs :).
* Manager window now has notification of what is happening, it also loads the list of albums asynchronously so it will not freeze the application.
* Album art is now searched for in the background through the new scanning service built by Ian.
* Album art is not download when you play an item, since there is now a scanning service.
* This version ONLY works for 0.5+ version of Songbird. (even though it says 0.4)
* BUG: Default preferences are not loaded.
* Still no localization for amazon but should be coming soon.

Version 0.9.2
* Ok this should fix all the bugs that occurred in 0.9.0 and 0.9.1 :)

Version 0.9.1
* Fixed bug where covers where not appearing in the Album Art Manager window, this was because there has been a change with 0.5(trunk) that reverses the continue logic for the media list enumeration. So this version will not work with 0.5 yet.

Version 0.9
* Removed the faceplate overlay.
* Added a preferences pane (available under options).
* Made the album art stretch to the size of the service pane.
* Added filter option to Album Art Manager window to show only missing covers
* Added preference to disable notification
* Added preference to store covers in alternate location
* Fixed bug when selecting "Get artwork from File" the menu wouldn't disappear.
* Changed name of "Now Playing" pane to "Current Album Cover"

Version 0.8
* Fixed bug with the dataremote that caused this Add-on to not work in windows. I have tested with a fresh windows xp sp2 install and fresh install of Songbird 0.4.
* Fixed issue that displayed "null" for missing track/artist/album names, now it displays "unknown"

Version 0.7
* Fixed some issues with windows version so the Now playing should be showing up and the manager window should display normally (sorry for the bad UI, should get better soon).
* Changed the cover url change from an observer to a sbIDataRemote so it can now be bound to an element.

Version 0.6
* New Notification feature that will pop up a notification (growl on mac or a notification box on windows/linux) when the track or album art changes.
* Major back end updates that will improve performance and ease of adding new features.

Version 0.5
* Now has the Now Playing feature that puts the Album Art of the currently playing track into the service display pane (Show by selecting View->Service Pane Bottom->Now Playing.
