Changelog v2.5.0

Feature updates

• Scripting/IPC support
  • Remote-control an active instance via the CLI (check jamesdsp --help for available commands)
  • Public DBus API added (3rd-party apps can directly connect to JamesDSP and control it using a stable API; see readme for details)
• Translation support
  • Contribute on Crowdin: https://crowdin.com/project/jdsp4linux
• Liveprog scripts:
  • Added 16 new scripts
  • Scripts can now define list properties in the GUI
• Merged upstream updates for libjamesdsp (james34602/JamesDSPManager@d377cd9)
  • Liveprog scripting engine updated
  • Convolver crash fix
• libportal support
  • flatpak packages will be available soon
• The built-in crash report sender has been removed; the crash handler is still present and continues to save crash reports locally to /tmp/jamesdsp. Note that these crash reports are useless unless the binary was compiled with debug symbols.

Bug-fixes & minor changes

• AutoEQ package manager:
  • Fixed crashes when updating the database
• Audio backend:
  • Pipewire backend updated & rewritten
  • Pulseaudio: Handle missing GStreamer plugins correctly instead of crashing
  • Suspend audio pipeline after 10s if no apps are connected to save CPU power
