[2.0.17] - 2026-07-16

Added

  • Controls bar (buttons, seekbar, menu) now spans the full window width, with cover and lyrics panels below it
  • Controls bar can be moved to the top or bottom and locked in place from the menu
  • macOS: optional menu bar icon
  • Tray menu: "Show mpz"
  • Track info: tabs with all tags, file and audio metadata
  • Download missing album covers online (off by default)

Fixed

  • Unchecking all lyrics providers no longer re-enables them

  • Tray click hides the window only if "close to tray" is enabled

  • Linux: tray click switches to the window's desktop instead of hiding it

  • Windows (legacy Qt5 build): the media play/pause key can now pause playback, not only start it

  • Windows: media play/pause key now pauses while the window is minimized

Misc

  • Faster playlist creation: fewer tag reads per file, scanning runs on all cores
  • Vendored libmpdclient updated to 2.26
  • New build options: ENABLE_QHOTKEY (default on, off on macOS and Windows MSVC where the OS owns media keys), USE_SYSTEM_QHOTKEY (default off), ENABLE_CRASH_HANDLER (default on for Linux, macOS and MSVC), USE_SYSTEM_CPPTRACE (default off)
