Changelog

All notable changes to Nihon's Music Framework are documented here. The project follows semantic versioning.

[Unreleased]

  • Additional standalone Direct3D hosts
  • A complete D3D12 command-recording contract
  • Expanded no-CRT experimentation
  • Future Linux support through MPRIS, PipeWire, and SDL3

[1.2.2] - 2026-10-06

Fixed

  • Flattened malformed album-art alpha data during decoding so valid RGB pixels are no longer hidden in Overkill, tile, or artwork-background modes
  • Limited the transparency setting to rendered panel elements so the layered window no longer makes album artwork and text translucent
  • Replaced the black transparency key that incorrectly punched holes through dark album artwork

Easter eggs

  • Retained the source artwork's malformed alpha data on April Fools' Day

[1.2.1] - 2026-10-06

Fixed

  • Added an opaque backing behind transparent artwork in tile and Overkill modes

  • -SDL PowerShell build option and isolated SDL build directory
  • Pinned, statically linked SDL 3.4.16 dependency support through CMake

  • Updated architecture and build documentation for the SDL, OpenGL, and Vulkan frontend
  • Marked Linux as future platform work and macOS as unsupported

[1.1.1] - 2026-10-06

Fixed

  • Corrected featured-artist separator parsing and display
  • Prevented the featured-artist separator from being corrupted by source-file encoding

Fixed
