The ACB Radio Web team among a number of others have been working hard on a brand-new version of the ACB Radio Tuner. With the launch of the ACB Radio World stream, we have released the new ACB Radio Tuner. Here is what is new in this release: * This version only supports Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003 and Windows VISTA. The older version will remain available for older client desktops such as Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME and Windows NT Version 4.0. * Addition of the ACB Radio World stream reachable by pressing CTRL+D. * Addition of several new hotkeys. * Windows Media Player hotkey changed to CTRL+E. * Settings are saved in a custom INI file (ACB Radio Tuner.ini) to eliminate Windows registry writes. The file is placed in the user's Application Data folder in a directory called "ACB Radio Tuner". This insures that the program will operate under VISTA. * Improved, cleaner visual user interface. * The "No Extra Speech" setting is now saved if selected so that future sessions do not check for the availability of a screen reader. We have great plans for the future of the Tuner and you will start to see more frequent updates as we begin to implement those features.
