17.8.2003:
eMule v.30a is
available!
!Because of an included security fix, an upgrade to this version is recommended.
bluecow: Added dialog for showing the eD2K meta data for search results, download files and shared files. The according context menu item is only in "Advanced mode" available.
.: Added some new checks and fixes in order to ban unfair clients
.: Changed the TCP (local) and UDP (global) source search for clients who are downloading many files, to make some server software happy one more time and to avoid blacklisting
.: Unused credits are removed after 5 month (to limit the memory usage for credits)
bluecow: Server error messages are no longer displayed in the server info window, but in the application log window.
bluecow: ED2K file meta data received during a file search is filtered before adding it to the part.met and eventually to the known.met file to avoid storing of not needed data.
bluecow: Several changes in the file preview command: The preview command is enabled, if a minimum of 16 KB (MPEG audio/video) or 256 KB at the beginning of the file is available. The preview command is also enabled for files of type "CD-ROM image" or if the ED2K meta data indicates an audio/video file type. To enable the new features of the preview command specify VideoLAN client as the video player for preview or (if using some other player) specify the 'PreviewSmallBlocks=1' (section=eMule) setting in the preferences.ini file and disable the 'Create backup for preview' option.

bluecow: Added sending of extracted meta data and audio/video characteristics for MP3,AVI,MPEG and other files to servers and clients.
