                  Note: those who want Gaps and indexes in the cuesheet image, install the latest Cue Sheet Image codec also.

                    Bug fix: CD ripper was slow on detecting indexes for cd-extra discs
                    Bug fix: CD ripper if enabled to overread but drive could not then it was possible to ask for 26 frames but the drive would return all 0's for the 26 frames, new code to ask for all blocks outside of lead out seperately so even if the drive cannot overread it would not give zero data back for a large number of frames (and fail AR check)

                    mp3 ID Tagging - Comment Tags (other than simple comment, such as iTunesNorm) are preserved, also language code correctly set for comment
                    mp3 ID Tagging - Lyrics ID3v2 tag (unsync) supported
                    Bug Fix: mp3 - if had id3v1 & apev2 tag at the end, could lead to reported stream errors

                    CD ripper - Secure Options >> new option: Cancel Disc Ripping After any Insecure Track

                    Profiles for music converter (have to first enable in dBpoweramp Configuration >> Music Converter >> Enable Profiles in Converter), create profiles by selecting [Create New Profile] in the encoder box
