Releases: jellyfin/jellyfin-media-player
v1.6.1 - Maintenance Release

For Windows users this release features system-wide media key support and the addition of the option to create a desktop icon.
This version also changes the default hardware decoding mode to decode.copy, which has been found to be effective for 98 percent of users and less prone to color problems. It also includes all of the jellyfin-web fixes recently released in Jellyfin 10.7.5.

v1.5.0 - Remember Subtitles, Taskbar Integration, & Custom CSS
Note! Hardware decoding may break playback for some people! Please complete this survey so I can make an informed decision about the default.
If you were still using MPV Shim for the subtitle feature, you will be happy to know this release will remember your subtitle preference between episodes! Note that you must start playing the next episode for this to happen.
You can also apply custom CSS per-user and per-client:
And finally, you can control the player from the Windows Taskbar:
Changes:
- Remember intended subtitle and audio selection between episodes.
- If you stop playback right at the end of an episode, it will not apply it to the next one.
- Allow disabling the server's custom CSS.

- Add Windows taskbar integration. (#61)
- Fix volume OSD not showing on mute toggle. (#63)
v1.4.1 - Bugfix Release
v1.4.0 Image Fix and TV Mode w/ Remote Controls
This release fixes the issue where images did not show up in the web client. It also brings back TV mode, which can now be remote controlled. For instance in my testing I was able to control the client using a PS3 controller!
If you are upgrading from 1.2.1 or earlier you must log out and log back in or casting, state updates, and SyncPlay will not work.
Changes:
- Backport fix for images not loading.
- Enable mouse back/forward buttons. (#42)
- Fix subtitle offset support. (#35)
- Add back support for TV mode, and also use configuration/command line flags.
- Add support for some media keys, remotes, and controllers through inputmanager.
- Using TV mode is suggested if you want to remote control the client.
- Enable hardware video decoding by default.
- If this breaks video playback, you can shut it off in "Client Settings".
- Allow file download option in web client again.
- Fix more warnings in the codebase. (#32)
v1.3.1 Bugfix Release
This release adds more packages and fixes a rather serious performance problem that causes increasing numbers of unnecessary API calls to the Jellyfin server, particularly with music.
If you are upgrading from 1.2.1 or earlier you must log out and log back in or casting, state updates, and SyncPlay will not work.
Changes:
- Fix music performance issue where there were excessive API calls (#22)
- Add builds for win32, debian, and ubuntu. All packages are built in CI now!
