  • Make Scrobbler plugin work again by parsing Last.fm responses properly
  • Don't treat MPG123_NEW_FORMAT as error when seeking in MP3 files
  • Avoid crash when opening corrupted AAC files
  • Fix build with C++20 standard

Other changes:

  • Qt 6 and GTK 3 are now used by default, Qt 5 and GTK 2 support can still be enabled at build time though
  • GTK support is no longer considered legacy
  • Switch to x86-64 for Windows build
  • Various minor UI improvements

Known issues:

  • When building Audacious with autotools on macOS, plugins are not found or loaded (audacious-media-player#1364). Please use Meson instead as solution.
  • Using the Winamp interface on Wayland is not supported due to limitations in Wayland regarding application-side window positioning (see also #common problems). We suggest to run Audacious via XWayland therefore.
