Version 0.7.1:
Bugfixes:
* Fix several compilation errors under GCC 4.6.0.
* Fix a regression that broke gapless playback between certain songs.
* Fix the behaviour of --seek-by and --seek-to commandline options.
* Fix a crash when the visualisation window was resized to 0x0 pixels.
* (Linux) Fix the behaviour of the InsertUrls DBUS method.
* (Mac OS X) Fix a crash on startup on machines without X11 installed.
* (Mac OS X) Fix a bug that would make Clementine try to update to an
earlier version.
Version 0.7:
Major features:
* Brand new "Edit track information" dialog. You can now edit more fields,
change multiple songs at once, change album cover art and view song
statistics. Added an option to identify songs and fill in their tags
automatically using information from MusicBrainz.
* Add support for .cue files. Songs in a cuesheet appear in the playlist
and your library as separate tracks.
* Add "Duplicates only" and "Untagged songs only" views to the library that
help you find and correct badly tagged music in your library.
* Add an option to show album covers in the library view. This is on by
default, but you can turn it off again in the Preferences dialog.
* Add an option to load cover art directly from a URL.
* Clementine now gracefully handles deleted files by skipping them on
playback attempt and greying them out in the playlist view.
* Add a "Full library rescan" option which should rescan your library much
more thoroughly than before (but will take longer).
* Add a "Show in file browser" option to the library and playlist menus.
* Add a fancy tooltip to the track seek slider, showing the position that
you're about to jump to and its distance from the current position.
* Add support for network proxies. Clementine will use your system's proxy
by default, but you can configure a different one in the Preferences
dialog.
* The "Kittens" extra now fetches even fluffier kittens.
* Hypnotoad: now available in fullscreen HD.
Other features:
* Load embedded cover art from ogg files.
* Add a backspace shortcut to the files view.
* Pressing ESC will clear and focus the search box. Typing in the playlist
view will focus the search box and start searching.
* Pressing space in the playlist will play/pause the current track.
* Add global shortcuts for rating songs.
* Add global shortcuts for all of the repeat and shuffle modes.
* Middle-clicking a song now enqueues it into the playlist.
* Download higher resolution images from last.fm.
* Add options to the now-playing widget's menu to change the album art.
* Dragging an image file onto the now-playing widget will now set that
image as the cover art for the album.
* You can now tell the library scanner which filenames it should prefer
when looking for album cover art.
* Add a configurable timeout when searching for song and artist info.
* Add tooltips to the album cover manager that show the artist and album
name.
* Improve the options in the context menu for adding tracks to the playlist
from the library. Default behaviours are now configurable in the
Preferences dialog.
* You can now use "file path" when creating dynamic playlists.
* The search box in the album cover manager now searches in artist names
as well.
* Move the clear button inside search boxes.
* Make the pretty OSD snap to the center of the screen when dragging.
* Add a text alignment setting to playlist columns.
* The scroll wheel now scrolls through images in the artist info view.
* You can now drag songs onto empty space in the playlist tab bar to add
the songs to a new playlist.
* Fade out the currently playing song when exiting Clementine.
* Centre on the last played song when restoring a playlist.
* Add a menu item to change analyzers' framerate.
* Add an option to hide dividers in the library view.
* Ability to use either a "time left" timer or a "total time" timer for songs.
* (Windows) Add support for automatic updates. The second time you start
Clementine you are asked whether you want to check for updates
automatically. You can check manually at any time in the Tools menu.
* (Windows 7) Add playback buttons to the Windows 7 taskbar icon.
Bugfixes:
* Fix several issues loading files with non-ascii characters in their
filenames.
* Fix several crashes when loading malformed tags from MP3 files.
* Fix a crash when clicking the "cancel" button on a dynamic playlist while
the preview is still being loaded.
* Fix a crash when skipping quickly through tracks while the Artist Info
tab was open.
* Fix a crash on exit if you have the Magnatune list open.
* Fix a crash when closing a playlist that has songs still loading.
* Fix a crash when removing the first, active playlist.
* Fix a race condition on startup that might lead to two instances of
Clementine being started.
* Fix a display bug in the "Last played" column for songs that haven't been
played in the last week.
* Improve the sorting of untagged songs loaded from directories.
* Fix a build failure on ARM.
* Do library initialisation in the background - fixing a GUI freeze when
loading large collections.
* Fix a bug where columns would sometimes not appear in the playlist.
* Fix some graphical bugs when resizing the sidebar when it is blurred.
* Hide the score and comment columns by default, increase the size of the
sidebar.

* Fix an issue when trying to sign in to last.fm with a username containing
special characters.
* Fix the "date" and "rating" smart playlist comparisons.
* Update statistics properly when playing songs shorter than 30 seconds.
* Don't re-read tags from files when loading a playlist if those songs are
already in the library.
* Make it possible to disable all lyric providers.
* Make it possible to delete the active playlist.
* Add a workaround for broken XML entities in ASX playlists.
* Sort playlist tabs properly when closing and re-opening Clementine.
* (Windows) Fix MP3 transcoding.
* (Windows) Better error handling when parts of the Windows Media Device
Manager SDK aren't installed (like on Windows Server).
* (Windows) Fix a crash on startup when a device was connected that gave
Clementine an invalid icon.
* (Linux) Various MPRIS2 fixes.
* (Mac OS X) Increase the maximum file descriptor limit so larger
collections can still be monitored for changes.
Build system changes:
* Remove the old xine, VLC and Phonon backends. These weren't maintained
any more and didn't have as many features as the GStreamer backend.
* Make Last.fm optional.
* Clementine now builds correctly with Clang.
* Don't run tests for features if those features are disabled.
* (Linux) Make DBUS optional.
* (Windows) Upgrade to Qt 4.7.1.

It's so great, thank you so much!
Just a question... is it normal that with version 0.7.1 also after configuring proxy I am still not able to use last.fm radios?
I'm from Italy and the proxy server is in U.S. (where last.fm is free) :)
Any help is really welcome :)

"The former preferred choice Xine is as of now considered unmaintained and should not be used anymore."

I think was very wise the decision of Clementine developers to use gstreamer as is the best for pulseaudio and phonon. With Clementine i have the best music experience and is my default music player.
Keep going
* I love the crossfade between the songs (amarok dont have this cause of xine)

You will find openSUSE rpms in the KDE:Extra repo, just add it to the download section (there is a special feature in kde-apps.org to link to a openSUSE BuildService repo).

1. More options when I click the album cover below libraryy like editing track info, changing the cover etc.
2. Making it more KDE like app.
3. More tabs like context browser, playlists(read random playlits).
4. Showing the album covers in the library (yes amarok2 has great ideas!)

It is a mess.
I've tried to generate makefile with:
cmake .. -DENGINE_VLC_ENABLED=OFF -DENGINE_LIBXINE_ENABLED=ON -DENGINE_QT_PHONON_ENABLED=ON -DENGINE_GSTREAMER_ENABLED=OFF
make file was ok.
But compilation stopped at

... and tons of libs are necessary ty compile.
A build made available for xine/phonon engines would be fair.

If you just compiled sqlite3 from source and "make install"ed it then it probably didn't go in the right place, and Clementine is still using the system package. You can check by running sqlite3 and typing:
CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE foo USING fts3();
If it succeeded it will give no output.
Anyway, try Clementine from SVN as in the comment below and let me know if it works.=

But regardless, Ubuntu should have set up pulseaudio to allow two things to play at once. Make sure it's actually installed and running, see the second FAQ entry here:

Problem I described occurs only when crossfading is disabled. When I enabled it playback works fine.
In my opinion this app needs some solution that works better with KDE4 sound system. Gstreamer and PulseAudio is better with Gnome (but it's only my opinion).
