Airfoil 4.7 Brings Menu Bar Mode and More
Boston, MA - Airfoil has long been one of Rogue Amoeba's most popular apps, enabling tens of thousands of users to send any audio all around their homes. With that popularity comes plenty of great customer feedback on how to enhance the product. It's because of that feedback that Rogue Amoeba is delighted to release Airfoil 4.7, which implements a very common user request: Menu Bar Mode.
For users who wish to control Airfoil from anywhere, Airfoil's new global menu will be a most welcome sight. The menu sits in the upper right of the Mac OS X menu bar, providing access to Airfoil's essential controls from inside any application. Even better, for those who have overly full Docks, a preference allows users to have Airfoil run exclusively in the menu bar. Airfoil 4.7 is proud to be Dock free!
Airfoil's Menu Bar Mode in Action
By default, Airfoil will now appear in both the Dock and the menu bar, but users can adjust a preference to make it appear only in the Dock (as standard applications do) or only in the menu bar. Airfoil 4.7 also features remote control support for Last.fm's new betas, as well as many important bug fixes, including the return of the ability to capture audio from Rosetta apps like Radio 365, and a fix for a conflict with Qt-based apps like Sibelius.
All users are encouraged to update immediately - it's a free update for owners of Airfoil 4.
