VaxirMusic 1.1.10
VaxirMusic 1.1.10 makes songs start noticeably faster and brings synchronized lyrics from more sources.
Faster playback
- Songs now play from YouTube's direct audio stream, cutting stream resolution from roughly 3 seconds to about 0.15-0.20 seconds while keeping the same audio quality.
- The existing yt-dlp resolver stays in place as an automatic fallback, and signed streams recover seamlessly if a link expires.
- Preloading the next song uses the same fast path, so crossfades start instantly.
Better lyrics
- Lyrics now come from multiple sites: LRCLIB exact matches, LRCLIB search, LRC RED's TTML catalogue, Lyrics.ovh, and YouTube Music.
- Timestamped lyrics are preferred, so the follow-along scroll and line emphasis work across far more songs, including Thai and Japanese tracks missing from LRCLIB.
- The lyrics panel now labels which source provided the lyrics.
Polish
- Page navigation keeps the quick 180 ms reveal.
- Fixed a rare UI-test flake when a slider was already at its first position.
Favorites, listening history, and settings are preserved. Install this setup over your current version; Windows asks for administrator permission.
VaxirMusic 1.1.9
VaxirMusic 1.1.9 makes sidebar page changes instant. Search, Explore, Queue, History, Favorites, and Settings now appear in the same frame as the click, then settle with a short header fade and staggered row reveal instead of a blocking snapshot transition.
- Sidebar and collection pages switch immediately with no full-screen snapshot overlay.
- Added a subtle 160 ms header/card reveal and 200 ms row reveal; rows slide from the travel direction.
- Queue, History, and Favorites paint immediately, and History is cached to avoid repeated disk work.
- Fullscreen and lyrics keep the existing composited transition.
- Reduced unnecessary native control work during layout, keeping navigation fast even with a 500-song queue.
- Favorites, history, settings, and in-app updates are preserved.
Includes the verified playback runtimes, setup.exe, and setup.sha256. Install this setup over your current version.
VaxirMusic 1.1.8
VaxirMusic 1.1.8 makes the player feel faster and lighter.
- Sidebar pages (Search, Explore, Playing queue, History, Favorites, Settings) open with a short ~170 ms fade instead of a long wait.
- Search runs automatically 250 ms after you stop typing; Enter still searches immediately.
- The music list is virtualized, so a 500-song queue or history opens immediately instead of building rows one at a time.
- Cover art loads only for rows near the viewport, and the artwork caches are smaller, which reduces memory use.
- MPV starts audio sooner and uses a smaller read-ahead buffer with disk caching disabled.
- Network sessions are reused and MPV state reads are sent in batches.
- Choosing a song starts a fresh queue and recommendation session; Add to queue, Next, and autoplay keep the current queue.
Favorites, history, and settings are preserved. Install this setup once, then use Settings > Check update or Auto update for future versions. Windows asks for administrator permission before installation.
VaxirMusic 1.1.7
Manually playing a song now starts a fresh queue and recommendation session. Album, playlist, and artist selections rebuild the queue from that collection. Add to queue, Next/Previous, and automatic playback retain the current queue. Stale background results cannot refill a replaced queue.
Reduces playback control overhead by batching MPV state reads and playback setup commands, and reuses HTTP sessions with independent request timeouts. Local state-poll measurements improved from about 48 ms to 8 ms per poll; this is not a measurement of internet streaming startup.
Includes setup.exe and setup.sha256 for website downloads and in-app updates. Favorites, listening history, and settings are preserved.
VaxirMusic 1.1.6
Fix in-app updates by using the public download repository. The application source repository is private and cannot be queried by an installed app without credentials.
Includes the current player, live now_playing.json export, verified playback runtimes, and setup.exe plus setup.sha256. Favorites, listening history, and settings are preserved.
Install this setup once if your existing app still checks the private repository. Future updates use Settings > Check update > Update now, or Auto update at startup. Windows asks for administrator permission before installation.
VaxirMusic 1.1.5
Fix in-app updates by using the public download repository. The application source repository is private and cannot be queried by an installed app without credentials.
Includes the current player, live now_playing.json export, verified playback runtimes, and setup.exe plus setup.sha256. Favorites, listening history, and settings are preserved.
Install this setup once if your existing app still checks the private repository. Future updates use Settings > Check update > Update now, or Auto update at startup. Windows asks for administrator permission before installation.
VaxirMusic 1.1.0
Restores interrupted music at its last known position. Adds Settings > Check update, Update now / Later, and an Auto update toggle. Automatic updates check at startup, verify SHA-256, install, and restart the app. Install this setup once to enable future in-app updates; Windows may request administrator permission. Favorites, history, and settings are preserved. Both setup.exe and setup.sha256 are included.
VaxirMusic 1.0.1 - Setup fixes
Download setup.exe for 64-bit Windows 10 or Windows 11.
- Fixed white corners and flickering in the setup window, including disabled buttons during updates.
- Update now closes the installed VaxirMusic app before replacing files, and terminates instances that do not respond. Copies running from other folders are left alone.
- Removed the old autoplay/Discord status card from the player sidebar.
- Discord's Download button uses https://vaxirmusic.github.io/ as its fallback if the configuration is missing or invalid. Discord displays these buttons to other users, not when viewing your own activity.

Validated with 80 setup UI checks, 29 installer action checks, 184 C++ checks, and 904 player UI checks.
