Oxidify 0.8.0

Oxidify has a new look. The logo is now a sound wave that rusts from blue through purple to orange, the interface takes its colours from it, the built-in Winamp skin has been redrawn, and the song you are playing can show on your Discord profile.

Added

  • Discord status. Turn on Settings, Show on Discord, and the song playing on this computer appears on your profile as Listening to Oxidify, with its cover, artists, album and a progress bar. The cover opens the song on Spotify and the small Oxidify badge opens this repository. It talks only to the Discord app on the same computer, clears when you pause, and is off until you turn it on. Discord shows it only while Activity Privacy, Share my activity is on.

Changed

  • New logo and colours. The hexagon is replaced by the wave mark everywhere: the top bar, the sign-in screen, About, the window and taskbar icon, the tray, and the Windows and macOS app icons. The default accent follows it: blue for selected and playing items, and the full blue to purple to orange blend on the play buttons, the seek and volume sliders and the primary buttons. Green is still available in Settings, Appearance, and settings saved by earlier versions keep working.
  • One bar at the top on Windows. The separate title bar is gone. Minimize, maximize and close sit at the right end of the top bar, and the bar's empty space drags the window and maximizes it on double click.
  • The built-in Winamp skin is redrawn in the classic layout: ribbed metal, bevelled buttons, sunken displays, gradient time digits and sliders, and lamps on the toggles.

Fixed

  • Settings no longer overlap. Wide controls such as the proxy choices and the audio source pair used to draw over their description. Each row now gives its control the room it needs, puts the control under the text when the window is narrow, and lists the choices left to right. The long note about alternate playback wraps instead of being cut off.

Downloads

Windows installers and portable ZIPs are available for x64 and ARM64. The macOS DMG contains a universal app for Apple Silicon and Intel. Linux archives are available for x64 and ARM64. checksums.txt lists SHA-256 hashes; the provenance file identifies the source commit and build run.

Automated tests run on Linux, macOS, and Windows. The Discord status was checked by hand on Windows against the Discord desktop app, and the new window controls, settings layout and Winamp skin were looked at on Windows. The Discord status on macOS and Linux uses Discord's local socket instead of the Windows pipe; it was compiled and tested by CI, not tried by hand.

Windows SmartScreen or macOS Gatekeeper may warn about an unsigned download. See the installation guide for platform instructions.
