🆕 New Features in this Build

1. Mono / Stereo Toggle (Trigger File Method)

Requested by: ApolloMoonLandings (Reddit)
Adds support for stereo-to-mono downmixing for users with single-sided hearing or specific monitoring needs.

How to use:

  • To enable Mono: Create an empty file or folder named MONO in the root of your SD card. The device will detect it, swap the ALSA configuration, and reboot automatically into Mono mode.
  • To return to Stereo: Delete or rename the MONO file/folder. The device will reboot back into Stereo mode.

Technical Implementation:

  • Custom ALSA configuration at /usr/data/asound.conf.mono using a route plugin with a ttable to mix L+R channels.
  • Background monitor script /usr/data/mono_monitor.sh auto-started via /etc/init.d/S92_03_start_music_player.

2. Russian Language Fixes

Contributor: Much_West_2785 (Reddit)
Extensive fixes for the Russian localization strings (usr/resource/str/russian/), correcting grammatical errors, truncated text, and inconsistent terminology found in the stock firmware.

3. Font Replacement — MiSans

File: usr/resource/fonts/default.otf
The stock font has been replaced with MiSans. This provides a cleaner, more modern aesthetic and excellent legibility for both Latin and Cyrillic scripts.
