What's new in 1.0.2

  • Fixed: Ctrl+Up/Ctrl+Down (Volume Up/Down) did nothing from the Favorites tree, which has focus by default on launch -- the tree's own arrow-key handling was silently swallowing the shortcut before it ever reached the Playback menu.
  • Fixed: starting a stream (or pausing and resuming one) could reset the volume to 100, discarding a level you'd just set and, for a favorite station, silently overwriting its own remembered volume. A favorite now reliably comes back at its own remembered volume; a level you set with nothing memorized yet stays put.
  • Fixed: Sound Enhancements' EQ sliders now announce a real accessible name to screen readers.
  • The Recording Settings, Wake-Up Timer, and Add Station dialogs' affirmative button is now labeled "OK" instead of "Save," matching standard Windows dialog convention.
  • Sound Enhancements gained a "Reset to Default" button, clearing a station's own EQ/compressor override so it goes back to following the shared default. Preferences (Ctrl+,) gained "Reset All Stations' Sound Enhancements..." to clear every station's override at once.
  • Sound Enhancements is now a real three-band equalizer: Bass, Mid, and Treble sliders (-12 to +12 dB), each freely adjustable. The old presets (Flat/Bass Boost/Voice Clarity/Podcast) still work as a "Quick preset" shortcut that sets all three sliders at once.
  • Sound Enhancements can now be remembered per station: open it while a favorite station is playing to give that station its own EQ and compressor, distinct from the shared default. Adjust it with nothing playing (or a non-favorite station on) to change the shared default that every other station follows.
  • Closing the window (the titlebar X, Alt+F4, or Station > Exit) now asks what to do when something is playing or recording: Exit, Minimize to Tray, or Cancel, with a "Don't ask me again" checkbox -- previously it always exited immediately, silently stopping an in-progress recording. Preferences (Ctrl+,) gained a matching "When closing the window" setting to change your answer later.
  • Check for Updates (Help menu) now shows a real dialog when you're already up to date, instead of only a spoken announcement that was easy to miss.
  • Preferences (Ctrl+,) gained "Announce dialog transitions" (off by default) to reduce alert noise -- previously every dialog always spoke "Entered/Exited" cues with no way to turn it off.
  • Help menu gained User Guide, Release Notes, and Product Requirements items, opening the bundled documentation right in your browser.
  • Sound Enhancements (Playback > Sound Enhancements...): an equalizer preset (Flat/Bass Boost/Voice Clarity/Podcast) plus a compressor ("Even Out Volume"), applied live via ffmpeg -- no new audio engine, no new install step. Off by default; needs FFmpeg (Help > Get FFmpeg...) the same way recording already does.
  • Recording Settings gained "Apply Sound Enhancements to recordings" -- off by default (an unfiltered archival copy, unchanged behavior), turning it on records the filtered audio instead for every recording method (Record Now, Record Station, and scheduled recordings).
  • Browse Stations search now also checks SomaFM (a free, curated internet-radio directory) alongside RadioBrowser, blended into the same results list.
  • Automatic Check for Updates: a throttled, silent check once a day on launch -- quiet unless a real update is found.
  • Preferences... (Ctrl+,): a small dialog for Resume Last Station on Launch and the new automatic update check.
