- New embedReplayGain setting (off by default) with UI toggle
APEv2 tag support:
- Full APEv2 reader/writer with header+items+footer format
- Merge-based editing with override keys for explicit deletions

- APE ReplayGain not wired end-to-end
- APE field deletion not working in merge
- APE cover edit was a no-op
- Album RG duplicate entries on retry
- APE apeKeysFromFields missing track/disc/lyrics mappings
- Album RG entries purged by removeItem before computation
- FFmpeg converters discarding empty metadata values
- _appendVorbisArtistEntries skipping empty value (null vs empty)
- Album RG write-back fails for SAF lossy files
- Album RG partial finalization on failed tracks
- FLAC ClearEmpty flag destroying tags on partial callers
- clearCompleted not retriggering album RG checks
- ReadFileMetadata MP3/Ogg missing label and copyright
- Cover embed on CUE split destroying split artist tags
- Album RG gain format inconsistent (missing + prefix)
- FLAC reader/editor missing tag aliases (ALBUMARTIST, LABEL, etc.)
- dart:math log shadowed by logger.dart export
Resolve API (api.zarz.moe):
- Refactor songlink.go: Spotify URLs use resolve API, non-Spotify uses SongLink API
- Add SongLink fallback when resolve API fails for Spotify (two-layer resilience)
- Remove dead code: page parser, XOR-obfuscated keys, legacy helpers
Multi-artist tag fix (#288):
- Add RewriteSplitArtistTags() in Go to rewrite ARTIST/ALBUMARTIST as split Vorbis comments
- Wire method channel handler in Android (MainActivity.kt) and iOS (AppDelegate.swift)
- Add PlatformBridge.rewriteSplitArtistTags() in Dart
- Call native FLAC rewriter after FFmpeg embed when split_vorbis mode is active
- Extract deezerTrackArtistDisplay() helper to use Contributors in album/playlist tracks
Code cleanup:
- Remove unused imports, dead code, and redundant comments across Go and Dart
- Fix build: remove stale getQobuzDebugKey() reference in deezer_download.go
Add singleFilenameFormat setting so singles/EPs can use a different filename template than albums. The format editor is reused with custom title/description. Dart selects the correct format based on track.isSingle before passing to Go, so no backend changes needed. Also fix isSingle getter to include all EPs regardless of totalTracks. Closes#271
- Delete dead metadata client and extract shared types to metadata_types.go
- Remove Yoinkify download fallback from Deezer, use MusicDL only
- Clean up retired settings fields and metadataSource
- Remove dead l10n keys for retired provider
- Add migration to strip retired provider from existing users' lyrics config
- Fix M4A/ALAC scan silently failing on Samsung by adding proper fallback
to scanFromFilename when ReadM4ATags fails (consistent with MP3/FLAC/Ogg)
- Propagate displayNameHint to all format scanners so fd numbers (214, 207)
no longer appear as track names when /proc/self/fd/ paths are used
- Cache /proc/self/fd/ readability in Kotlin to skip failed attempts after
first failure, reducing error log noise and improving scan speed on Samsung
- Fix Qobuz download returning wrong album cover when track exists on
multiple albums by preferring req.CoverURL over API default
- Fix FFmpeg M4A metadata save failing with 'codec not currently supported
in container' by forcing mp4 muxer instead of ipod when cover art present
- Clean up FLAC SAF temp file after metadata write-back (was leaking)
- Update LRC lyrics tag to credit Paxsenix API
- Remove log message truncation, defer to UI preview truncation instead
- Add artist_tag_mode setting (joined / split_vorbis) for FLAC/Opus multi-artist tags
- Split 'Artist A, Artist B' into separate ARTIST= Vorbis comments when split mode is enabled
- Join repeated ARTIST/ALBUMARTIST Vorbis comments when reading metadata
- Propagate artistTagMode through download pipeline, re-enrich, and metadata editor
- Improve library scan progress: separate polling intervals, finalizing state, indeterminate progress
- Add initial progress snapshot on library scan stream connect
- Use req.ArtistName consistently for Qobuz downloads instead of track.Performer.Name
- Add l10n keys for artist tag mode, library files unit, and scan finalizing status
Move hardcoded UI strings across multiple screens and the notification
service into ARB-backed l10n keys so they can be translated via Crowdin.
Adds 62 new keys covering sort labels, dialog copy, metadata error
snackbars, folder-picker errors, home-tab error states, extensions home
feed selector, and all notification titles/bodies. NotificationService
now caches an AppLocalizations instance (injected from MainShell via
didChangeDependencies) and falls back to English literals when no locale
is available.
Enable strict-casts, strict-inference, and strict-raw-types in
analysis_options.yaml. Add custom_lint with riverpod_lint. Fix all
resulting type warnings with explicit type parameters and safer casts.
Also improves APK update checker to detect device ABIs for correct
variant selection and fixes Deezer artist name parsing edge case.

Requested by @okinaau in issue #242 — brings back the ability to
download tracks in lossy format for users on low storage devices.
HIGH quality fetches the AAC M4A stream directly from the Tidal server
(no lossless download + re-encode), then converts to MP3 or Opus via
FFmpeg based on the tidalHighFormat setting (mp3_320, opus_256, or
opus_128).
- go_backend/tidal.go: restore outputExt .m4a, filename logic,
duplicate-check guard, HIGH M4A lyrics/LRC handling, and
bitDepth=0/sampleRate=44100 for HIGH quality result
- settings.dart + settings.g.dart: re-add tidalHighFormat field
(default mp3_320) with JSON serialization
- settings_provider.dart: re-add setTidalHighFormat(), remove
migration that force-migrated HIGH to LOSSLESS
- download_queue_provider.dart: restore HIGH conversion logic for
both SAF and non-SAF paths using FFmpegService.convertM4aToLossy
- download_settings_page.dart: restore Lossy 320kbps quality tile,
format sub-picker tile, _getTidalHighFormatLabel helper, and
_showTidalHighFormatPicker bottom sheet
- l10n: add 10 keys (downloadLossy320, downloadLossyFormat,
downloadLossy320Format, downloadLossy320FormatDesc, downloadLossyMp3,
downloadLossyMp3Subtitle, downloadLossyOpus256/Subtitle,
downloadLossyOpus128/Subtitle) to ARB and all 13 generated files
When enabled, playlist downloads are placed inside a subfolder named
after the playlist before the normal folder organization structure
(e.g. Playlist/<artist>/<album>/). The setting is a no-op when folder
organization is already set to 'By Playlist'. Includes model field,
JSON serialization, settings notifier, download queue path logic,
UI toggle in download settings, and localizations for all 13 languages.
When a file is converted externally (e.g. FLAC to OPUS), the
orphan cleanup would delete the history entry because the original
path no longer exists. Now it checks for sibling files with other
audio extensions and updates the stored path instead of deleting.
Also add extension-stripped keys to path_match_keys so that
paths differing only by audio extension still match during local
library scan exclusion and queue deduplication.
Add a new 'Auto Scan' setting under Local Library with four modes:
off, every app open (10min cooldown), daily, and weekly. The app
uses WidgetsBindingObserver to trigger incremental scans on launch
and when resuming from background, respecting the configured
cooldown based on the last scan timestamp.

Version rolled back from v4.x to v3.7.0. After extensive work on v4's
internal streaming engine, smart queue, DASH pipeline, and media controls,
we realized v3 was already feature-complete. Adding more big features
only made maintenance increasingly difficult and the developer's life
miserable. Stripped back to what works: external player only, cleaner
codebase, sustainable long-term.
- Remove just_audio, audio_service, audio_session and entire internal
playback engine (smart queue, notification, shuffle/repeat, prefetch)
- Remove PlaybackItem model, MiniPlayerBar widget, notification drawables
- Remove playerMode setting (external-only now)
- Migrate MainActivity from AudioServiceFragmentActivity to
FlutterFragmentActivity
- Migrate Qobuz to MusicDL API
- Update changelog with v3.7.0 rollback explanation
- Extract normalizeOptionalString() to lib/utils/string_utils.dart from download_queue_provider and track_metadata_screen
- Extract PrioritySettingsScaffold widget from lyrics and metadata priority pages, reducing ~280 lines of duplication
- Extract _ensureDefaultDocumentsOutputDir/_ensureDefaultAndroidMusicOutputDir in download queue provider
- Extract collectLibraryAudioFiles() and applyDefaultLibraryMetadata() in Go library_scan.go
- Extract plainTextLyricsLines() in Go lyrics.go, used by Apple Music, Musixmatch, and QQ Music clients
- Add configurable SongLink region (userCountry) setting with picker UI
- Pass songLinkRegion through download request payload to Go backend
- Go backend: thread-safe global SongLink region with per-request override
- Fix downloaded track not recognized in collection tap: add findByTrackAndArtist
fallback in download history lookup chain (Spotify ID → ISRC → name+artist)
- Apply same name+artist fallback to isDownloaded check in track options sheet
- Add missing library_database.dart import for LocalLibraryItem
