Added

  • Added support for phone-initiated A2DP playback connections.
  • Added adaptive Windows resource-pressure monitoring so picker residency, UI preloading, polling, and background work respond to memory, activity, and energy constraints.
  • Added a native core runtime boundary, broad regression coverage, and reproducible resource-usage and picker-latency benchmark tooling.

Changed

  • Restored a hardened single-process architecture while keeping XAML dependencies out of the reusable core runtime.
  • Made the device picker and tray paths faster through cached native snapshots, coalesced refreshes, and reduced invisible or unchanged UI work.
  • Reduced background overhead by deferring settings persistence, diagnostics collection, and automatic update work, and by removing diagnostic-only connection heartbeats.
  • Hardened command IPC with authenticated same-user endpoints, bounded concurrency and request retention, strict payload validation, and deterministic shutdown.

Fixed

  • Fixed connection, discovery, reconnect, suspend/resume, and shutdown races, including stale connection identities and failed coroutine launches.
  • Fixed settings-window, tray-menu, startup-task, notification, and update-check lifecycle failures during partial initialization or teardown.
  • Fixed an update-check coroutine lifetime issue that could access a destroyed coordinator, and bounded stale Stream Deck status and visual-generation state.
  • Fixed disconnect-all handling for devices with pending reconnects and improved reconnect-all failure reporting.
  • Hardened settings persistence, diagnostic retention, release packaging, signed payload verification, and App Installer feed publication.

Installation: Download the .cer once and install through the .appinstaller file. The optional Stream Deck integration is provided as a .streamDeckPlugin asset.

Import-Certificate -FilePath ".\AudioPlaybackConnector2.cer" -CertStoreLocation "Cert:\LocalMachine\Root"
Start-Process "ms-appinstaller:?source=https://n0ahtm.github.io/AudioPlaybackConnector2/AudioPlaybackConnector2.appinstaller"

If Windows does not open App Installer from the protocol link, download and open the .appinstaller asset directly. Direct MSIX sideloading remains available, but installing through the .appinstaller file enables Windows App Installer update checks.

Releases are signed with a self-signed certificate. A free open-source code-signing certificate has been requested but approval may take some time.
