3.4.0

Plans for 3.4 changed a bit when google announced they will be hiding apps on newer versions of android if they dont target the newer sdks.  GMMP always tries to target one of the more recent versions of android, but the unlocker has no need for that since its essentially just a license key.  As of May 1st the unlocker will be hidden on newer versions of android to those who have not already purchased.  Because of this, the focus of 3.4 was to get in app purchases working to allow users to buy the full version after May 1st.  There is a new 'Purchase' section in the settings where the unlocker can now be purchased. One other change in 3.4 is the support for the Android 13+ media controls.  They changed around how to customize them, so that is reflected in a new 'Media Controls' section of the settings. The language can also be changed for just GMMP via the system settings The changelog itself is fairly small but I did a large update of all the libraries / dependencies t

3.3 Full Release

3.3 is not the most glamourous update, but it should still be a significant improvement over 3.2.x.  For this release I had 3 main focuses.  Updating to target android 12 (play store requirement), update the audioengine with the latest ffmpeg version, and bug fixes.  GMMP was fortunately approved by google to be able to use the newer "Manage External Storage" permission, so this update completely avoids scoped storage. More info on the permission here .  Once updated to android 12 and the engine updated to ffmpeg 5.0, my focus turned to fixing the long list of issues that have built up over the last few years on trello.  3.3 includes roughly 50 fixes (many very significant for some users).   I will likely still focus on mostly fixing bugs / stability for the time being while I also work on some other projects (the new audioengine, my Android TV app QuasiTV , and another currently undisclosed project). The rollout on google play will take a day or 2.  3.3 will be uploaded to a
