Changelog

Important changes

• Sync mode default has been changed to read-write, as most sync issues should be resolved
  • Fix playlist song remove/reorder
  • Fix synced playlists wrongly being registered as editable/non-editable
• Automatic scanner for local media is now enabled by default. Enable automatic scanning and automatic download folder scanning. Fixed downloads sometimes disappearing and requiring a rescan (if they don't appear, trigger a rescan manually in storage settings)

New features

• Added an setting to configure the max multiple queue size (in experimental settings)
• Added search functionality to liked/downloaded playlist
• Add liked/library/downloaded functionality to the artists/albums/songs/playlist panes of the library tab

• Local media performance improvments
  • Drastically improved local song artwork loading performance when fast scrolling (migrate from custom image cache to coil)
  • Launching the app no longer a song into the player immediately. Media notification will only be created when playback starts.

  • Added MediaStore scanner as an beta feature

Changes and improvements

• Change blur/gradient rendering method. Reduce microstutter and remove 500ms delay

• Improvements to the add to playlist dialog
• Smaller grid sizes in the library gridview and home page
• Show library/liked/download badges in queue
• Moved audio offload toggle to under Experimental -> Dev settings.

• Updated translations
• General optimizations, improvements, and fixes

Bug fixes

• Fix playback resumption (yes, once again, and hopefully this will be the last time)
• Player notification artwork dying... again
• Queue items can be reordered when queue is locked
• When the queue is automatically reshuffled, then song may not start from the beginning
• Automatic queue reshuffling is not seamless, (the player plays a few milliseconds of the wrong song before proceeding to the correct one)
• Clicking on songs in detached queue doesn't work, or skips to odd parts of the song
• Start radio will load the same radio queue twice instead of just one (it should load 50 songs, not 100)
• Fix radio continuation (load more when you reach end of the queue) in some screens, search, and/or homepage

• Visual issues with the lyrics screen
• Recent activity sync indicator keeps spinning until the end of time
• Crash when clicking on the "All" filter chip in the stats screen
• Haptics causing crash on some devices
• Infinite loading on certain album pages such as podcasts
