V1.0 * Initial Release V1.01 * Bug fix * Artist can be added to Search request Ver 2.04 * Find Cover Art menu off Track Info page while browsing library - no longer limited to use only on playing track. * Find Art now works on Controller from Track Info displays. * Search related Find Art settings can be changed from Settings menu on Controller. * Find Art menu position on Track Info page is configurable (top,bottom,auto) * A preference setting to display a Custom Search facility on WebUI where user can change the search terms. If Artist search is enabled then two fields will be shown but if Artist field can be left blank for a Title/Keyword search. * New artwork will show up on WebUI and controller/Squeezeplay without need for rescan. On WebUI there may be a need to refresh pages/ clear browser cache. There is still some caching in Squeezeplay which can't be invalidated and prevents updated art being displayed immediately. On Squeezeplay the new art work will not show up on menu that have already been "seen" until SC has been restarted. * fix for bug when search Title has accented characters.
