Release Notes - BlackBunny v2.0.0

Welcome to BlackBunny v2.0.0! This release introduces massive feature additions, native module upgrades, and user interface refinements to provide a top-tier music listening experience.

Key Highlights

1. Native Equalizer & Bass Boost

  • System-level Audio Processing: A native Android Equalizer module is integrated to manage multi-band gains and bass boost settings directly.
  • Audio Presets: Quickly select from built-in audio signatures including Flat, Signature, Acoustic, Bass Boost, Dolby Open/Rich/Focused, Dirac Music/Movie/Game, Pop, Rock, Electronic, Jazz, and Voice.
  • Interactive SVG Visualizer: A fully responsive SVG equalizer curve interface that lets you view and drag band gains in real time.
  • Simple & Advanced Modes: Switch between clean UI presets/sliders and a detailed custom audio frequency graph.

2. 👥 Music Party (Local Playback Sync & Spatial Audio)

  • Local Peer Discovery (NSD): Discover and connect with other devices on the same Wi-Fi network using Android Network Service Discovery.
  • Synchronized Playback: Host or join a party to sync track playing, pausing, and seeking with other listeners.
  • Spatial Audio Canvas: A 2D grid allows dragging listener nodes relative to the source. The system dynamically updates client volume/panning offsets based on coordinates on the grid.

3. Sleep Timer

  • Flexible Durations: Set playback to pause after 5, 15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes.
  • End of Track Mode: Stop music playback automatically when the currently playing track finishes.
  • Active Status HUD: Keep track of the remaining time with an active status header in the sleep timer panel.

4. ⚡ Speed Dial & Home Screen Refinements

  • Pinned Quick Access Grid: A paginated 2x3 grid (Speed Dial) on the home screen allowing you to pin, reorder, and quickly launch your favorite tracks, albums, playlists, or artists.
  • Dynamic Feed Sections: Native YouTube Music home feed integration with horizontal carousels (HomeSectionCarousel) and customized content rendering.

5. Upgraded Downloads & Queue Manager

  • Concurrent Download Queue: Optimized management of background downloads with real-time download status hooks, notifications, and storage persistence.
  • Native Blob Utils: Integrated react-native-blob-util with dedicated patches to resolve file path write/read issues on newer Android SDK levels.

6. User Interface & Community Standard

  • Modern Icon System: Standardized the application UI using lucide-react-native icons for consistency.
  • Open Source Readiness: Added standard developer guidelines including CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md and CONTRIBUTING.md.

🛠️ Technical Details & Refactoring

  • Native Android libraries added to modules/equalizer and modules/nsd for hardware-accelerated processing and peer discovery.
  • Custom Expo configuration plugins in plugins/withAppConfiguration.js to automate native Android Gradle and package builds.
  • Refactored contexts/app-theme-context.tsx to persist and synchronize Equalizer values.
  • Added PlaybackService.ts hooks for client network clock offsets and sleep timer triggers.
