Main Changes
Upgraded Search
This version of Tauon Music Box introduces a new global search feature.
This search overlay automatically activates when the user begins typing on any of the main screens.
Unlike the previous search, this search actively displays results from all playlists, searching Artist, Title and Album fields individually and attempting to return results in order of relevance.
The intention of the previous search function was to be fast, but needing to navigate playlists manually could end up taking longer and leave the user feeling frustrated. This new search lets you have all your albums at your fingertips.
For now the old search will remain in place and be referred to as 'find'.
Album Time
Also in this release is a new time display mode which displays the current time out of the whole duration of an album, instead of just the current track. Click the display time in the bottom right corner to cycle available modes.
Improved support for M4A files
Embedded album art in .m4a files will now be displayed. Album-artist and lyrics information are now read from m4a tags too.
See main readme page for instructions.
Experimental Flatpak support
This release provides a standalone flatpak for easy install across multiple Linux distros
If you are upgrading from a previous .deb install, you can uninstall using sudo apt-get uninstall tauonmusicbox. Your previous configuration and data files will remain in place.
Note that this experimental install method may change or may no longer be included in future releases.
