V2.7.4 -- Development Version

on GitHub

Enhancements

• Use the correct method for finding the systemd unit path, as recomended by debain maintainers and
  http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/daemon.html#Installing%20Systemd%20Service%20Files. Thanks to dantheperson.
• Rather than hardwire the path /usr/local/bin as the path to the shairport-sync executable, the value of $PREFIX is now used during configuration. Thanks to Nick Steel.
• Add some extra diagnostic messages if the hardware buffer in the DAC is smaller than desired.
• If metadata has been enabled, but if picture sending has not been requested and the source sends pictures anyway, omit them from the metadata feed. Thanks to Jörg Krause.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a data alignment issue in the handling of metadata on some processors. Thanks to Jörg Krause.
• Removed an assert which would terminate the program if a malformed packet of data was received.
• Look for the correct tag name for desired alsa buffer length: audio_backend_buffer_desired_length rather than audio_backend_buffer_desired_length_software.
