Audacious 4.6 is now available!
Audacious is a cross-platform music player that is a descendant of XMMS. It allows you to play music files found on your computer or play internet radio stations from a URL while preserving resources for other tasks.
Last year, Audacious 4.5 was released to provide playback history plugin (Qt) and to allow you to fetch lyrics from lrclib.net. Now, Audacious 4.6 is now available for you to try out. Here are some of the new features and changes that this version of Audacious introduced:
- File browser plugin has been added to provide you with an improved user interface for browsing music files.
- Playback history plugin is now added to the GTK version of Audacious to achieve feature parity with the Qt version.
- Now Playing for macOS plugin is now available.
- Previous button now allows you to wrap to the last track in the playlist.
- Audacious can now support all AIFF types, including those that are under the
.aif format. - You can now restore the playlist deletion confirmation dialog box under Settings.
- Audacious can now read lyrics tag from Opus, Ogg Vorbis, and FLAC files.
- …and many more features.
Also, you can now play Musepack SV8 files (.mpc) on Audacious. Earlier, Audacious only supported Musepack SV7 files, and couldn’t play any Musepack files that were encoded with SV8.
Bugs have also been fixed to increase stability and reliability, including:
- Malformed PSF2 files no longer causes Audacious to crash.
- Migrating config settings should no longer cause Audacious to crash.
- PSF metadata parser should no longer cause buffer overflows.
- Encoding issues related to music lyrics on Windows have been fixed.
- Infinite loop with “Next album” and enabled shuffle mode should no longer happen.
- …and more bug fixes and general improvements.
