The fine folks over at the Freevo project released their latest stable version, 1.6.0, on Saturday. Of course with the usual stability & performance increases, there are also a couple of new features.Some of noteworthy fixes include some code to clean up a few remote control problems, a few caching issues seem to have been fixed, and there are also a few interface tweaks. As far as new features goes, a few new plugins have been added, multi-tuner support is now built in, and there are more skins available to add some life to the Freevo interface.
Although Freevo may not be as popular as some of the other homebrew solutions, it has so far with stood the test of time. However it still seems behind in a few areas, especially when you consider that it only recently received support for more than one tuner card.
As with any software upgrade, you may want to watch out for new issues that may arise. Since the release, things have been fairly quiet on the Freevo-users mailing list but that's not to say that it's bug free.
