* feat(player): preview-active state on play button (ring + stop icon) Checkpoint: play button mirrors the inline preview button from tracklists during preview playback — hollow circle, accent ring depleting over the preview duration, Square (stop) icon. Click still resumes main playback, which the Rust audio engine cancels the preview for. i18n key player.previewActive in all 8 locales for tooltip + aria-label. * feat(player): show preview track in player bar + smart stop semantics The player-bar info cell (cover, title, artist) now mirrors the previewing track during preview playback, with a small accent "Preview" pill above the title and an accent top-border on the bar. Rating, fullscreen hint and album/artist link clicks are suppressed while previewing — they target the queued track, not the preview. Stop semantics for the two transport buttons during preview: - Big play button (Square+ring visual): stops preview, main auto-resumes if it was playing before. Matches the tracklist preview-button behaviour. - Small Stop button: new audio_preview_stop_silent Rust command — stops preview AND leaves main paused, so "Stop = silence" actually goes silent. previewStore now stores the full PreviewingTrack (id, title, artist, coverArt) — the seven startPreview call sites pass it through. i18n key player.previewLabel in all 8 locales.
Psysonic
The Ultimate Desktop Client for Self-Hosted Music Libraries
Fast. Beautiful. Native. Feature-packed. Built primarily for Navidrome. Also compatible with Gonic, Airsonic, LMS and other Subsonic-compatible servers with partial feature support.
No telemetry • Native performance • Massive feature set • Community driven
Warning
Psysonic is under heavy active development. Bugs and rough edges are to be expected. We reserve the right to change, remove, or rework existing features at any time without prior notice.
Server Compatibility
Psysonic is optimized first and foremost for Navidrome.
Many advanced functions integrate directly with Navidrome APIs for the best possible experience. Other Subsonic-compatible servers generally work well, but some features may be limited depending on server capabilities.
Why Psysonic?
Most Subsonic clients feel like web wrappers.
Psysonic does not.
It is a true desktop experience built with Rust, Tauri v2, and React for users who care about speed, aesthetics, customization, and serious music library management.
If you host your own music, this is what the premium experience should feel like.
