Queue performance improvements
With this release all queue operations, including ones performed by other players, will be handled asynchronously on Euphonica's side. There should be very little blocking logic left, and as such there should be even fewer stuttering on older systems or slower connections.
For any remaining performance hiccups, bug reports are especially welcome.
Lyrics-based seeking
For songs with synced lyrics, clicking on a lyric line will seek to its timestamp.
Bugfixes
- Fixed a crash when newlines are included as artist tag delimiters & there are UTF-8 characters.
- Fixed a crash caused by the PipeWire visualiser backend when changing tracks via MPRIS (including playerctl).
- Fixed volume knob not reflecting remote changes.
- Changed MPRIS play command behaviour to start playing again from the last-played track in the queue while in the stopped state.
- Empty album & artist tags are now properly included in the Album & Artist views.
