VIsage v1.1.0

Which file do I need?

System	Easiest (recommended)	Other formats
Windows (64-bit)	Installer (.exe)	MSI · Portable (.zip)
Linux x86-64 (most PCs)	AppImage	.deb (Debian, Ubuntu, Mint) · .rpm (Fedora, openSUSE) · Arch · .tar.gz
Linux ARM64 (Raspberry Pi 4/5, ARM laptops)	AppImage	.deb · .rpm · .tar.gz

• AppImage: make it executable (chmod +x) and run it. It updates itself. The Windows installer and MSI update themselves too.
• Not sure? Windows: take the Installer. Linux: take the AppImage.
• Linux without libmpv: VIsage asks once and downloads it. On NixOS this is the normal path.
• Files named latest.json, SHA256SUMS, PKGBUILD and visage-libmpv-* are for the updater and for packagers. You do not need them.

Highlights

• New Material 3 Expressive Blur option (Settings → Interface → Layout): frosted glass top bar, mini-player, sidebars, queue and player controls over a tinted, scrolling page background.
• Update notice is now a small toast at the bottom left with Update now, Later and Skip.
• Discord Rich Presence shows as Watching and can add a song button (opens it on YouTube Music) and a VIsage button.
• Music video: faster start, less stutter, quality picker on hover, and yt-dlp is bundled.
• Paste a YouTube or YouTube Music link in Search to see the video; Enter plays it.
• Separate heading and body font pickers, a redesigned region/language dialog, and a reorganised Interface settings page.
• Seek bar styles redesigned (Wavy, Expressive).
• Lower memory use: smaller heap and idle RAM, caches are dropped instead of running out of memory.
• Fixed the logged-in Home feed not matching YouTube.

Highlights

• Home shows YouTube's own Quick picks shelf.
• New Square cover option in Settings → Now Playing → Cover.
• libmpv: wider lookup (NixOS, Guix, LD_LIBRARY_PATH). If none is found, VIsage downloads its own copy (about 15 MB).
• Smaller download: the Chromium sign-in component is fetched on first use, and unused icon and SQLite files are removed.
• Flatpak build fix.
