This is one of the biggest updates yet which was in the works for quite a while! This is new:
- Added the option to use the album cover image directly from the media player.
- You will now always have a cover image in your Discord status, if your media player supplies one (which is the case most of the time). That means there will be no more missing or incorrect cover images!
- Users of media players that play FLAC/MP3 files will see the cover image in their status that is embedded in the music file.
- If you want to know how this works, read the detailed documentation.
- Enabling this feature adds no significant additional delays.
- This is enabled by default.
- In-app and automatic updates are here!
- You don't need to visit this download page anymore, instead you can install updates with a single click or automatically in the background. Whenever an installed update is launched you get a popup that informs you about all latest changes.
- A number of security measures are employed to verify an update before it is installed, to learn more read the full changelog and the documentation. Unless you verify your download manually, it is safer to install an update through the app than just downloading it from the release page.
- This feature is only available to Windows users at the moment.
- Automatic updates are enabled by default.
- Further changes
- Added controls for external services: You can now disable the use of the TIDAL and MusicBrainz API, if you like.
- Settings are now split into two submenus: "Appearance" and "Settings". "Appearance" contains all settings in regard to what your Discord presence looks like. "Settings" contains all other settings.
- Added changelog popups when new installed versions are launched and when an update is available. You can also view the entire changelog by clicking on the respective button in the settings.
- Appearance settings for "Playing" and "Listening to" are retained when switching between them. You can now switch to one without losing your settings for the other.
- Media without an artist is not skipped anymore.
- Long title and/or artist names are shortened in the tray menu, so that the menu does not get overly wide.
- And more...
- Bug fixes
- Fixed Discord RPC and TIDAL API errors when song or artist names are too long.
- Fixed an issue with UTF-16 characters in filesystem paths, where configuration and log files would not be saved correctly or at all. Fixes #34.
