1.4.9 Released

I'm really happy with how 1.4.9 turned out.  Added a few new things and fixed a bunch of long standing bugs.  The fixes should fix most of the instances where GMMP freezes/stops responding.  Hardware acceleration should make the UI a bit smoother as well.  I also decided to disable OpenSL by default for mp3 playback.  90% of the support emails I receive have been fixed by just disabling OpenSL and it serves no benefit for mp3s.  AAC formats will still use it since the legacy aac decoder was removed in jelly bean.

Edit: I found a bug with now playing not updating when changing preferences.  I updated the apk files.. so redownload 1.4.9 and install if you are not using amazon or google play

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
