AMPLE is short for "A MP3 LEnder". I wrote AMPLE one summer when I was coding for a company and got fed up with having to FTP over all my MP3 files from my home server to the computer at work just to listen to them. And through the other "MP3 servers" I could find didnt fit my needs for one of the following reasons: Depended on libfoo, libbar, python, perl, php3, Apache, libssl, etc, etc, etc...I just wanted to listen to the files Had a lot of features for "DJ:ing" etc that I really didnt need. Well....it was fun to write too. So whats good with AMPLE? Small, standalone (written in C using no external libraries) Portable (I think), I often try to compile it on the SourceForge compile farms Allows you to listen to your own MP3s away from home, nothing more, nothing less This is beginning to sound like marketing cr*p so Ill just stop right there, check out the links on the left for more info. Whats New in This Release: - There are only two fixes in this release. One is a compilation fix for Solaris and the other one is a security fix. Turns out a buffer used for local communication didnt have sufficient checks. User data isnt written without checks though so the worst that can happen is that huge amounts of memory is allocated. The socket was also bound to the loopback device so it should only be locally abuseable..
