Musik v1.3.0

This release restores complete YouTube audio streaming and track downloading
following recent YouTube player API and bot-detection changes, integrating
modern stream extraction and self-contained binary bundling.

Highlights

  • Restored reliable YouTube audio playback with dedicated yt-dlp integration
    for MPV, eliminating HTTP 403 Forbidden and VideoUnavailableException errors.
  • Enhanced audio track downloading with real-time percentage progress reporting
    and automatic stream resolution.
  • Added automatic tool discovery and background bootstrapping for external
    streaming dependencies.
  • Updated YoutubeExplode to 6.6.1 for updated metadata, search, and playlist
    parsing.
  • Bundled yt-dlp into the release installer package for a 100% self-contained
    out-of-the-box setup.

Interface and reliability

  • Maintained smooth IPC-based volume control, seeking, and pause/resume during
    online stream playback.
  • Retained offline local music library support, lyrics synchronization, and JSON
    settings backup/restore.
  • Improved fallback mechanisms for streaming and track downloading.
