Discophile 0.1.3
New
- Discophile Connect on desktop. Use the official service or a compatible independent instance. Connect is optional: local listening, downloads and direct server connections remain free.
- Encrypted configuration sync. Select the music, radio and Audiobookshelf connections you want to share, plus optional language and appearance preferences. Pair trusted computers with your private recovery code; signing in alone cannot decrypt your configuration.
- Encrypted configuration backups. Connect and Supporter include automatic and manual snapshots: up to 64 backups retained for 30 days. Review a restored configuration before publishing it to your other computers.
- Remote playback controls. Control playback, navigation, seeking and volume on another online paired computer.
- Continue here. Transfer playback queue and position between paired computers. The source keeps playing until the destination is ready. Both computers need access to the matching library; Connect never relays audio.
Linux packages
- Debian and Ubuntu: install the new
.debwithsudo apt install ./discophile_0.1.3_amd64.deb. Future package updates are installed with the package manager. - AppImage: make
Discophile-0.1.3-x86_64.AppImageexecutable and launch it. In-app updates preserve the AppImage format. On systems without FUSE, use--appimage-extract-and-run. - The portable
.tar.gzand Arch Linux AUR package remain available. Linux packages require x86_64 and glibc 2.35 or later (Ubuntu 22.04 baseline).
Your account, within reach
- A profile control in the top-right corner shows the picture selected on Connect, with initials as a fallback. Its menu brings together your name, email, plan, profile management, Connect settings and sign-out.
- The library selector has its own coordinated menu, with the active library clearly marked.
- Sign in from the first launch. The first introduction screen now offers an immediate route to Connect sign-in. You can still continue without an account.
- Account menus support keyboard navigation, light and dark themes, and larger text sizes.
Plans and activation
- Free: 2 paired computers, one selected synchronized connection, and shared preferences. New connections are synchronized only after you select them in Connect settings.
- Connect: 10 paired computers, all selected connections, backups, remote control and playback handoff — €2.99/month or €24.99/year.
- Supporter: the same operational features, with a larger contribution to development — €4.99/month or €39.99/year. Optional recognition and previews remain planned benefits.
- Request activation by email to info@discophile.app. There is no checkout, automatic payment or renewal.
Recovery and control
- Review paired computers, revoke access, export encrypted cloud data or delete the cloud vault.
- Revocation requires a new encryption key. Remaining trusted computers import the updated recovery code; keep it privately because the service cannot recover lost keys.
- Concurrent configuration edits require an explicit choice. Importing preserves local connections and downloads. Audiobookshelf requires a separate sign-in on each computer.
- The public Connect protocol and self-hosting guide describe the optional desktop service extensions and profile picture support.
This release covers desktop and Connect. The iPhone app is unchanged.
