2.5.0 BETA 0

The start of the beta cycle for 2.5 !

This version is on-par with the 2.4.0 stable version

2.4.0

What’s Changed

The 2.4 release is packed with new features, new providers and loads a huge amount of bugfixes and all kind of improvements overall.
Streaming should be better, smoother and more stable than ever!
Thanks to all contributors, beta testers and everyone else involved with this release!

Some highlights:

• Music Assistant now has native support for Podcasts and Audiobooks.

• Various new providers have been added to support podcasts and/or audiobooks.

• Existing providers that now have support for Podcasts and/or Audiobooks are Subsonic, YouTube and the local files provider.

• Music Assistant now has a built-in, sophisticated DSP, which you can configure per player.

• Music Assistant now has native support for "external audio sources", which can be provided either by players themselves (source control) or by plugins. The first plugin to deliver this functionality is Spotify Connect.

• Music Assistant now has support for "Player Controls" which let you outsource e.g. the volume or power control for a player to a Home Assistant entity.

And much, much more!

⚠ Breaking Changes

In previous versions, Music Assistant always used a power control (on/off) for every player, even if a player does not even exist power control natively. Now, with the new "Player controls" feature this has become a user choice. If you like to get the old behavior back where you can power on/off every player, go into the player settings and assign "fake power" in the player controls section.

🐛 Bugfixes

There have been countless bugfixes and (performance) improvements. Most important being that the streaming is now more robust in all kinds of scenarios.
