SONE

Activity Feed

• See what the people you follow are listening to and sharing, on a new Feed page grouped by month
• Play or open anything straight from a feed row, or right-click it for the full context menu
• An unread badge tells you when there is new activity, and clears when you open the page

Stream Overlay for OBS

• Show what you are playing on stream — a built-in browser source for OBS and other streaming software
• The overlay shows album art, title, artist, a quality badge, and a live progress bar in your current theme
• Choose your own port, see status and errors right in settings, and the overlay reconnects and resyncs on its own

Listening History

• Finished plays are now reported to TIDAL so Recently Played stays in sync — turn it off any time in settings
• Single tracks, favorites, radio, and artist tracks now all show up properly in Recently Played

Keyboard Shortcuts & Navigation

• Shortcuts follow a familiar standard keymap, now with shuffle and repeat bindings — your custom keys carry over
• Escape closes one thing at a time — the menu, then the dialog, then the drawer
• Go back and you land exactly where you left off, even in long lists that are still loading
• Arrow keys scroll the main view, and your shortcuts keep working even while a text field is focused

Themes & Dark Mode

• Your theme is now a plain file you can edit by hand — save it and SONE updates instantly, no restart
• Light and dark themes are ready before the window appears, so there is no flash of the wrong colors at launch

HTTP & SOCKS5 Proxy Fixes

• Audio now plays through proxies that require a username and password, not just browsing and artwork
• SOCKS5 now resolves addresses through the proxy instead of leaking them to your local DNS
• If the proxy cannot be reached, SONE stops instead of sending your traffic around it — and tells you why
• A blocked or silently failing proxy is now reported, with a way out before you even sign in
• Switching proxies mid-song no longer restarts the track — playback picks up at the same spot
• Settings are checked as you type, a bad proxy can always be undone, and turning proxying off restores your system settings

Fixes

• Unplayable tracks are skipped instead of stalling your queue
• When the service is busy, playback pauses for a moment instead of dropping the track you picked
• Long track and playlist lists scroll smoothly again, and keep loading more as you reach the bottom
• Window edges no longer swallow the scrollbar or the window buttons, and the title bar drags properly again
• Your zoom level is set before the window appears, and icons stay crisp at every zoom level
• Artists without a photo fall back to album artwork everywhere, and search suggestions show the full track title
• Discord Rich Presence connects reliably, retries on its own, and no longer floods the log with errors
• You stay signed in more reliably, and the MCP server releases its port cleanly when restarted
• Play a music video full-screen straight from the now-playing drawer

Music Videos

• Watch music videos in a dedicated video player — go full-screen or minimize it to the player bar and keep browsing
• HLS streaming that starts at your selected quality and adapts down smoothly when your bandwidth drops
• Videos and tracks share one queue — previous, next, shuffle, repeat, autoplay, and history all work across both

Video Player

• Full transport, favorite, quality, volume, full-screen, and minimize controls
• The playing video is restored when you relaunch SONE
• Control video from the tray, MPRIS media keys, the miniplayer, and in-app keyboard shortcuts, just like audio

Favorites

• Favorite videos, kept separate from your loved tracks and reflected everywhere you see them
• Loved page now has Tracks and Videos tabs — a paginated, searchable video grid with tab-aware Play and Shuffle, and starting one queues the rest

Playlists

• Add videos to your playlists; mixed playlists show an accurate "N Videos · M Tracks" count

Explore & Search

• New video sections while you explore — Featured playlist promos and wide 16:9 video cards
• Videos in search — a Videos section in All Results, a dedicated Videos tab, and video rows in Top Hits

Profiles

• View and edit your profile — bio, social links, and a croppable avatar; your public playlists appear as a scrolling row

Settings

• Redesigned as a single centered window with a grouped sidebar for playback, themes, network, MCP, Discord, scrobbling, and more

Themes

• Three new presets — Noir, Meadow, and Blossom — plus a custom color picker with a live in-app preview

Streaming Quality

• Set a maximum streaming quality ceiling in playback settings

Design

• Animated album covers in the drawer, fullscreen, and album page
• Full-width cover-art banners and redesigned album, playlist, artist, and mix headers
• Animated Living Heart banner on the Loved Tracks header

Fixes

• Logging out fully tears down your session and clears cross-account state; re-login restores Discord and MCP
• Playing a recommended track from a playlist now queues the visible recommended tracks, not the playlist
• Detail-page shuffle button no longer toggles global shuffle
• Repeat-all preserves play history on source-backed playlists
• Playback position stays correct on pause/resume and miniplayer sync

Gapless Playback

• Seamless, silence-free transitions between tracks in normal output mode; on by default

Home

• Home page is now organized into tabs, with magazine-style cards and quick deep-link shortcuts
• Remembers your last-used tab, with skeleton placeholders and a fade-in while loading

Now Playing

• Album cover gently tilts toward your cursor with a true-perspective 3D effect
• Tap the time display to switch between total duration and time remaining
• Adjust volume by scrolling the mouse wheel over the volume control

Keep Awake

• Your screen no longer sleeps or blanks while music is playing, across X11, Wayland, and D-Bus/portal desktops

Scrobbling

• Sends the primary artist, plus MusicBrainz artist IDs when available, to Last.fm, Libre.fm, and ListenBrainz for more accurate matching

Updates

• A gentle toast lets you know when a new version of SONE is available

Logging

• Disk logs now capture more detail by default and keep more history (~50MB), making bug reports and troubleshooting easier

Fixes

• Support for DACs with a fixed channel count, via automatic channel negotiation and a stereo mix matrix
• Exclusive and bit-perfect output now correctly resolve ALSA plugin devices (front:, hdmi:) to the right sound card
• Signal Path now classifies bit-depth widening as lossless instead of lossy
• Player overlays close properly on navigation and browser back/forward
• Miniplayer: clicking the album art focuses the main window, and clicking the track title opens the album
• "Go to track radio" works even when a track has no associated mix
• Smoother loading on long "View all" lists with incremental pagination

Install & Packaging

• Official apt/dnf/zypper repositories via Cloudsmith so SONE stays up to date with your system updates
• Nix flake for `nix run` and `nix profile install`, plus a ready-to-use development shell
