+## [1.17.0] - 2026-03-25
+
+### Added
+
+- **Media Keys & OS Media Controls** *(experimental)*: Initial integration via [souvlaki](https://github.com/Sinono3/souvlaki) — MPRIS2 on Linux, Now Playing on macOS, SMTC on Windows. Track metadata (title, artist, album, cover art) and playback state are pushed to the OS media overlay in real time. On Linux, init is skipped gracefully if no D-Bus session is present. This feature is still under active development and observation — behaviour may vary across desktop environments and OS versions.
+- **Random Mix — Artist Blacklist**: Artist names are now included in the keyword blacklist filter. Clickable artist chips in the tracklist let you add an artist to the blacklist with one click — same UX as the existing genre chips.
+- **Favorites — Remove Song**: Each song row in Favorites now has an inline X button to remove the track from favorites instantly (optimistic UI, server unstar happens in the background).
+- **3 New Themes**:
+  - *Games*: **Horde** — Durotar blood-red earth, iron-plate sidebar, forge-fire gold glow on track name.
+  - *Games*: **Alliance** — Stormwind deep navy, cathedral stone columns, paladin holy-light glow, gold sidebar trim and nav accent.
+  - *Operating Systems*: **W11** — Windows 11 Fluent Design dark mode. Mica-style sidebar, clean neutral palette, taskbar-inspired player bar. No gradients — faithful to the minimal Fluent aesthetic.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Theme renames**: Cobalt Media → **WinMedPlayer**, Onyx Cinema → **P-DVD**, Navy Jukebox → **MuMa Jukebox**.
+- **NowPlayingDropdown**: Username / player name row now uses `--text-secondary` for improved readability across all themes.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Performance — App-wide interaction lag**: Removed `[data-theme='X'] * { font-family: ... !important }` universal selectors from several themes (DOS, Unix, and others). The browser places universal selectors in the "universal bucket" and checks them against every DOM node on every style recalculation — measurably sluggish with 500–1000+ elements even when the affected theme is not active. `font-family` is now set on the theme root block (inherits to children) with a targeted `button, input, textarea, select` override for elements that don't inherit font.
+- **Performance — Scroll jank**: Removed `repeating-linear-gradient` / `repeating-radial-gradient` from `.app-shell` in DOS, Unix, GW1, Morpheus, Aqua Quartz, and others. WebKitGTK with `WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1` (always set by the AUR wrapper) has no GPU compositing — fine-pitch repeating patterns on the full-viewport background re-rasterize every scroll frame. Patterns are now applied only to `.sidebar` and `.player-bar`, which never scroll.
+- **Contrast — 29 themes**: Audited all themes against WCAG AA. Fixed `--text-muted` and `--text-secondary` values in 29 themes that had insufficient contrast ratios (< 3.5:1). Affects Catppuccin (all four variants), Gruvbox (all six), Nord variants, GW1, Heisenberg, Ice and Fire, Spider-Tech, Morpheus, Hill Valley 85, Dune, and others.

+
+## [1.16.0] - 2026-03-24
+
+### Added
+
+- **15 New Themes** across multiple categories:
+  - *Operating Systems*: **Aqua Quartz** — Mac OS X Aqua (skeuomorphic jelly buttons, brushed aluminium player bar, pinstripe background, blue Source List sidebar, authentic `#3876f7` accent)
+  - *Movies*: **Spider-Tech** (Spider-Man navy/red), **T-800** (Terminator Skynet blue), **B-Runner** (Blade Runner 2049 amber), **Hill Valley 85** (Back to the Future)
+  - *Games*: **TetraStack** (Tetris 8-bit, cyan, grid background, 0px radii)
+  - *Series*: **Turtle Power** (TMNT turtle green, brick tile sidebar)
+  - *Social Media* (new group): **Insta** (Instagram dark pink), **ReadIt** (Reddit dark orange-red), **The Book** (Facebook light, blue sidebar)
+  - *Operating Systems*: **W3.1** (Windows 3.1, light silver/teal, 0px radii, inset bevels)
+  - *Mediaplayer*: **Jayfin** (Jellyfin-inspired — deep black, purple `#AA5CC3` primary, cyan `#00A4DC` secondary, brand gradient on player bar and progress fill)
+- **Aqua Quartz — Full Skeuomorphic Polish**: All button variants (`.btn-surface`, `.btn-ghost`, `.hero-play-btn`, `.album-card-details-btn`, `.queue-round-btn`) now have the authentic Aqua jelly gradient. Sidebar sports the iconic blue Source List gradient with white icons and a white pill for the active nav link.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **W98 Theme — Complete Overhaul**: Rebuilt from scratch with authentic Windows 98 design language: correct `#d4d0c8` warm-gray button face (not flat `#c0c0c0`), full 4-layer 3D bevel on all panels and buttons (raised default, sunken on press), song title displays in the iconic navy→light-blue title bar gradient, progress bar is a sunken white trough with navy fill, 16px styled scrollbar, all hover/active states consistently navy `#000080` + white text.
+- **Theme Picker — Alphabetical Order**: All theme groups and themes within groups are now sorted alphabetically.
+- **Theme Picker — Group Rename**: "Psysonic Themes — Mediaplayer" renamed to "Mediaplayer".
+- **Sidebar + Queue Toggle Buttons**: Queue toggle button now uses the theme accent color (icon + hover).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **AlbumDetail — Genre not propagating**: Playing via the album detail Play All / Enqueue All buttons now correctly includes the track genre in the constructed Track objects, making it show up in the Queue strip.
+- **W98 — Theme Accordion active state**: Open category headers are now navy with white text instead of black-on-navy.
+- **Aqua Quartz — Sidebar section labels**: "Library" / "System" labels now render in white on the blue sidebar.
+- **W98 — Connection indicators**: Server name and Last.fm username in the header are now black (`#000000`) on the warm-gray background for full readability.
+
+### Removed
+
+- **Themes**: Removed **Pandora**, **Order of the Phoenix**, and **Imperial Sith** — too similar to other better-executed themes in their respective groups.
+
+---
+
+## [1.15.0] - 2026-03-23
+
+### Added
+
+- **Queue — Genre · Format · Bitrate Strip**: The meta box above the queue now shows a full-width frosted strip with Genre, audio format, and bitrate (e.g. `Electronic · FLAC · 1411 kbps`). Genre is sourced directly from track metadata and is now propagated through all 11 track construction sites across the codebase.
+- **Lyrics — Accent Color Highlight**: The active synced lyrics line is now highlighted in the theme accent color instead of bold+larger text. Eliminates layout jumps caused by the font-weight change pushing lines to wrap.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Sidebar — Collapse Button**: The collapse button now correctly sits on the right border of the sidebar, straddling the dividing line between sidebar and main content, and is always visible.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Queue — Tech Info**: Codec/bitrate badge replaced by the new full-width Genre · Format · Bitrate strip at the top of the meta box.
+
+---
+
+## [1.14.0] - 2026-03-22
+
+### Critical Fixes
+
+- **Prebuffer Flood — 300 simultaneous downloads eliminated**: The audio engine was spawning up to 300 concurrent HTTP download requests during prebuffering, causing network saturation of ~200 Mbit/s and significant CPU load. The root cause was unbounded parallel preload logic in the Rust engine. Fixed: the engine now buffers intelligently with a single controlled preload per track. Network usage dropped to under 100 kbit/s during normal playback.
+- **Gapless Playback — fully stable**: Gapless transitions now work correctly end-to-end. Previously, edge cases in the sample-accurate handoff between tracks caused audio glitches or silence between songs.
+- **Crossfade — fully stable**: The equal-power crossfade (sin/cos envelope) is now reliable across all track transitions. Previous instability was caused by race conditions in the fade-out trigger and Sink lifecycle management.
+- **Now Playing Page — performance**: The Now Playing page no longer causes sustained CPU spikes. Heavy re-renders triggered by frequent `audio:progress` events (previously every 500 ms with wall-clock drift) are resolved — progress is now driven by an atomic sample counter at 100 ms intervals with no layout thrashing.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Volume — Clipping at 100%**: Audible distortion at maximum volume eliminated. A `MASTER_HEADROOM` constant of −1 dB (`0.891`) is now applied to all volume calculations, preventing inter-sample peaks from 0 dBFS masters and EQ biquad ripple from clipping.
+- **Seek — Display Desync**: Seeking while paused could cause the time display to jump to the new position while audio continued from the old one. `CountingSource::try_seek` now only resets the sample counter after confirming the seek succeeded.
+- **Gapless + Crossfade — Mutual Exclusion**: Both modes can no longer be active simultaneously. Enabling one auto-disables the other (Queue toolbar + Settings). Running both simultaneously caused a glitch where Song 2, gapless-chained inside the Sink, would play at full volume after Song 1's crossfade completed.
+- **Now Playing — About the Artist**: The "About the Artist" card is now hidden when no biography is available. Artist images that fail to load are silently hidden instead of showing a broken image placeholder.
+
+### Added
+
+- **Waveform — Hover Tooltip**: Hovering over the waveform seekbar shows a floating time label above the cursor. Hidden when no track is loaded or the cursor leaves.
+- **Hero & Album Detail — Format Badge**: Audio format (FLAC, MP3, OGG, …) now shown alongside Year, Genre, and Track Count in the hero meta row on the Home page and in the Album Detail header.
+- **Help — FLAC Seeking**: New FAQ entry explaining that FLAC files without an embedded SEEKTABLE cannot be seeked, with instructions for adding one via `flac` or `metaflac`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Queue — Tech Info**: Codec/bitrate badge moved from the frosted-glass cover overlay into the top-right corner of the meta box. Album artwork is no longer obscured.
+
+---
+
+## [1.13.0] - 2026-03-22
+
+### Added
+
+- **SVG Logo**: The Psysonic wordmark is now an inline SVG with a theme-adaptive gradient (`--accent` → `--ctp-blue`), matching the app's visual identity across all 47 themes. The collapsed sidebar shows a standalone P-icon with the same gradient.
+- **Player Bar — Marquee**: Song title and artist name scroll smoothly when the text overflows the fixed-width track info area, pause briefly, then jump back and repeat.
+- **Player Bar — Volume Tooltip**: A floating percentage label appears above the volume slider on hover and updates live while dragging.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Sidebar — Collapse button**: Moved from the brand header to a small circular hover-tab on the right edge of the sidebar. Hidden until you hover over the sidebar, keeping the logo area uncluttered.
+- **Player Bar — Layout**: Track info area is now a fixed 320 px width. Waveform section has increased margins on both sides for better visual separation between controls, waveform, and volume.
+- **Settings**: Server tab is now the default when opening Settings.
+- **Crossfade**: Experimental badge removed — considered stable.
+- **Help page**: Added entries for Lyrics, Configurable Keybindings, and Font Picker. Theme count corrected to 47 themes across 7 groups.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Global shortcuts — double-fire**: Pressing a global shortcut (e.g. `Ctrl+Alt+→`) was triggering the action twice. Root cause: `on_shortcut()` in `tauri_plugin_global_shortcut` accumulates handlers per shortcut across JS HMR reloads. Fixed with a Rust-side `ShortcutMap` state that makes `register_global_shortcut` idempotent.
+- **W98 theme**: Comprehensive contrast fixes across all interactive elements — hover states, buttons, queue items, settings panels, and toggles now use silver-grey (`#e0e0e0`) text on navy (`#000080`) backgrounds.
+- **Help page**: Removed orphaned translation key that was rendering as raw text under the Playback section.
+
+### Beta
+
+- **Global Shortcuts** (Settings → Global Shortcuts): System-wide keyboard shortcuts that trigger playback actions while Psysonic is in the background. Functional on all platforms, but edge cases with certain key combinations or OS-level conflicts may still occur.

+- **Gapless + Crossfade mutual exclusion**: Enabling one auto-disables the other, enforced in both Settings (row opacity/pointer-events + onChange) and QueuePanel toolbar (button onClick). Both features running simultaneously caused a glitch: Crossfade moved the Sink (which had Song 2 gapless-chained) to `fading_out_sink`; after Song 1's fade-out, Song 2 played at full volume from the old Sink.
 - **Cold-start resume**: `resume()` checks `isAudioPaused` flag. If true (warm resume), calls `audio_resume`. If false (cold start after restart), calls `audio_play` with saved URL then `audio_seek` to saved `currentTime`. Position preference: server queue position > 0 → use server; otherwise use localStorage value.
 - **Drag-and-drop**: All drag sources use `dataTransfer.setData('text/plain', ...)` — WebView2 (Windows) does not support custom MIME types like `application/json`. Queue reordering calculates the **drop target index from `e.clientY`** at drop time (iterates `[data-queue-idx]` elements, picks the first whose midpoint is below the cursor). `fromIdx` comes from `dataTransfer` (set in `dragstart`, always reliable). `onDragEnd` clears refs synchronously. All drops are handled by the `<aside>` container — no `onDrop` on individual queue items.
 - **Drag-and-drop cursor (Linux)**: WebKitGTK does not honour `dropEffect` for cursor display — the cursor may show as forbidden or no indicator depending on the compositor (KDE Plasma vs GNOME). DnD works correctly regardless. This is a known WebKitGTK limitation, not fixable from web content.

 - **Statistics page**: Library stat cards (Artists / Albums / Songs), Recently Played, Most Played, Highest Rated. Last.fm section (when configured): top artists/albums/tracks with period filter + recent scrobbles. No genre chart (removed). Data loaded in parallel via `Promise.allSettled`.
 - **Context menu**: `song` and `queue-item` types both have "Go to Album" (`Disc3` icon, shown only when `song.albumId` exists) and "Favorite/Unfavorite" toggle. Context menu type union: `'song' | 'album' | 'artist' | 'queue-item' | 'album-song'`. Starred state is read from `item.starred` (set when the item was loaded) and overridden by `starredOverrides` in `playerStore` (updated immediately on star/unstar so the UI reflects the change without a page reload). `Track` interface includes `starred?: string` — propagated via `songToTrack()` and all inline track-object construction sites.
 - **QueuePanel meta box**: Shows title (no link) → artist (linked to `/artist/:id`) → album (linked to `/album/:id`) → year (if available). Cover art is 90×90 px, top-aligned with codec/bitrate frosted-glass overlay at bottom. Default panel width 340 px. Header: title 16px/700, song count + total duration inline in `--accent` colour.
-- **Queue toolbar**: 6 round buttons (`queue-round-btn`, `border-radius: 50%`) centred in a row. Active state: `background: var(--accent); color: var(--ctp-base)`. Crossfade (≋) button: inactive click → enable + open popover; active click → disable + close. Popover: `position: absolute; top: calc(100% + 10px); right: 0; width: 170px` — right-aligned to prevent viewport overflow.

Popover: `position: absolute; top: calc(100% + 10px); right: 0; width: 170px` — right-aligned to prevent viewport overflow. **Gapless and Crossfade are mutually exclusive** — clicking one disables the other.
+- **WaveformSeek hover tooltip**: Hovering over the waveform canvas shows a floating time label (`.player-volume-pct`) above the cursor position, reusing the same CSS class as the volume % label. Rendered in a relative `<div>` wrapper; positioned via `left: ${hoverPct * 100}%`. Hidden when no track is loaded or mouse has left the canvas.
 - **Queue hover**: Queue items use `.context-active` CSS class when their context menu is open, keeping the hover highlight visible.
 - **Random Mix hover**: Row uses `.context-active` CSS class when a context menu is open for that song. `contextMenuSongId` state cleared via `useEffect` when `contextMenu.isOpen` becomes false.
 - **Favorites songs**: Full tracklist layout matching AlbumDetail — `track-row-va` grid with `#`, Title, Artist, Duration columns and a header row. Artist name clickable → artist page. "Add all to queue" button (`btn btn-surface`) next to the section title sends all favorited songs to the queue.

 - **Home page**: Section order: recent → discover → artist discovery (pill-buttons, no images) → starred → mostPlayed. Artist discovery uses `getArtists()` full list + client-side Fisher-Yates shuffle (16 random), rendered as `artist-ext-link` pill-buttons (same as ArtistDetail "Similar Artists") — no image loading, no performance impact.

 ## ● Known Limitations
 
 - **Linux (drag & drop cursor feedback)**: Due to a WebKitGTK limitation, the drag cursor does not reflect the drop operation type — it may appear as a "forbidden" symbol or show no indicator at all, depending on the desktop environment. Drag and drop itself works correctly.
-- **FLAC seeking**: Jumping to a position in a FLAC file via the waveform seekbar currently does not work. Seeking in MP3, OGG, and other formats is unaffected. This is a known issue and will be investigated.
+- **FLAC seeking**: Seeking in FLAC files requires an embedded SEEKTABLE metadata block. Files encoded without one cannot be seeked — clicking the waveform has no effect. Most modern encoders include a SEEKTABLE by default. You can add one retroactively with `metaflac --add-seekpoint=10s *.flac`.
