Use 'data' directory in source tree as the system config location when configured to run uninstalled.
Configure option to enable fatal valac warings. Also make this default when running autogen.sh.

Only share available files: As tracker also indices removable media we need

Only advertize searchable containers as such.
Do not execute search in non-searchable containers.
Only refuse to advertise a transcoder for an item if it's DLNA profile is the same as that of the item in question.
Don't wait for new item if its already available under the container.
Add timeouts to container update waiting code.
Sort in ascending order by default. I had gotten the idea of ascending and descending reversed in my head so ended-up sorting by title in wrong order.
Empty sort criteria in browse/search requests means no sort criteria.
Use shorter HTTP URLs.
Add support for search of media containers by their child count.
Delay addition of child containers to actual (exposed) hierarchy until they produce some offspring. Very often it happens that we don't have enough metadata available to populate our hierarchies and we end-up exposing empty containers. Not only its contrary to user's expectations but apparently DLNA CTT isn't able to digest them.
Move magic '@ADDRESS@' substitution from external plugin to core so all plugins can use it.
If the root container of a MediaServer plugin is empty, deactivate the plugin until the situation changes.
Tracker:
Add title-based hierarchies: One container for each unique starting character of all the titles available for the contegory in question.
Add "New" container: Under each category container, add a child container that lists all items of that category that were added (to tracker-store) less than 3 days ago.
Use property function for sorting. Tracker claims to be more efficient when using property functions instead of variables.
MediaExport:
More reliable fallback extraction.
Speed-up browse and search handling.
Localization:
Add Vietnamese translation.
Update Slovenian translation.
Update Norwegian bokmål translation.

New in Rygel 0.7.7 (Aug 31, 2010)

Add manpages for rygel and rygel.conf.
Add support for search by album and artist.
Don't advertize support for search by '@refID' as we don't really support and use it at all.
Drop support for search by 'res' and 'res@protocolInfo'. Since we didn't handle proxy and transcoding resources this gave wrong impression to the clients and was causing rygel to fail DLNA test cases.
Don't error out on empty search results.
Error out on HTTP request for invalid transfer mode.
Fix typo in serialization of "upnp:createClass".
Caseinsensitive string comparisons.
'TransferIDs' state variable should list IDs for all transfers we have, even the ones that are complete.
Correct sending of error to client when import of resource fails.
Make sure we don't make invalid comparisons during the search.
Do not set the 'spflag' as we never really are the clock source for the content, even in case of live/transcoded streams.
Add MPRIS2 plugin. This plugin turns any media player that implements MPRIS2[1] DBus interface into a UPnP MediaRenderer.
MediaExport:
Don't forget containers in children count.
Fix handling of "exists" operator in search.
Add m4v, m4a and png to list of file extensions to entertain.
Apply filter to monitoring of files as well.
Add support for the "Genre" folder of XBox.
Fix IOP with Windows Media Player 12.
Allow user to specify standard XDG media directories using variables.
Export XDG standard media directories by default but this time through default user configuration.
Tracker:
Correct some checks.
Escape regex for SPARQL.
GstLaunch:
Use '' instead of '_' in user configrution options.

Had forgotten to rename the plugin in the user configuration.

New in Rygel 0.7.4 (Aug 17, 2010)

Fix wildcard handling in search request.
Distribute correct copy of scallable icons.
Provide icons in DLNA standard sizes.
Provide icons in JPEG format as well.
Don't offer transcoding from video to audio and viceversa. This makes sense anyway and reduces network traffic.

List DLNA formats first in the list of supported formats.
Provide correct values for out parameters of GetCurrentConnectionInfo action.

Fix some (potential) crashes.
Correctly handle a translated string involving plurals.
Don't use deprecated libsoup API.
Correct flaws in code related to search for media object by ID. This combined with some changes in Tracker plugin (see below) improves the reliability and especially the performance of Tracker plugin a lot.
Use the mime-type and DLNA profile when provided in item creation requests.
Advertize byte-seek support for thumbnails.
Correct algorithm to decide whether to seek or not.
Set standard header on XML files.
Prefix service URLs with a "/". This seems like the right way to do it and it might actually improve our IOP.
Make use of new APIs to report all known DLNA profiles in list of supported formats (MediaServer only).
Add support for the "Genre" tag in music items.
External:
Handle AlbumArt property.
