v7.8.3
v7.8.2
v7.8.1
Changes:
- Files with
.AIFFextension should now import correctly - Improved compatibility for parsing CUE sheets
- Jellyfin library should now import much faster
- Further tweaked how albums are grouped in the gallery view
PipeWire native support:
This release adds a setting for Pipewire support via libpipewire (as opposed to using the PulseAudio interface via miniaudio). Unfortunately I haven't been able to get to the bottom of all the bugs, It does occasionally cause Tauon to crash. But Ive been delaying this release for a while now so im shipping it as is. Therefore I don't necessarily recommend enabling this setting, but it may still be useful for providing a fallback in case you are having issues with the existing PulseAudio setting.
For packagers:
- Dependency isounidecode has been dropped
- Dependency unidecode has been added
- Optional dependency libpipewire has been added
- Optional additional build script
compile-phazor-pipewire.shhas been added (may be removed in the future)
v7.8.0
10 Year development anniversary edition!
While I don't have an exact date to when I first started developing Tauon, my estimates put it at May 2014, which makes Tauon ten years old now. Its funny a lot of people consider Tauon a new app but its not really new any more.
With this release comes with a small icon refresh and name change. Previously Tauon Music Box, now in most places the app will simply be referred to as Tauon, as demanded by our marketing team. Its what most people refer to it already anyway. For now "Tauon Music Box" will still be used in some places such as install paths and in the main website domain.
Other Changes:
- Tauon now uses libgme to enable native support for the following video game music formats:
- AY (ZX Spectrum/Amstrad CPC)
- GBS (Nintendo Game Boy)
- GYM (Sega Genesis/Mega Drive)
- HES (NEC TurboGrafx-16/PC Engine)
- KSS (MSX Home Computer/other Z80 systems)
- NSF/NSFE (Nintendo NES/Famicom)
- SAP (Atari systems using POKEY sound chip)
- SPC (Super Nintendo/Super Famicom)
- VGM/VGZ (Sega Master System/Mark III, Sega Genesis/Mega Drive,BBC Micro)
- Added a new high contrast dark theme (Thanks @CryHavoc21)
- Improved cover fetching for Discord reliability (Thanks @G2-Games)
- Improved encoding detection for CUE sheets (Fixes common Russian language CUE sheets)
- Tweaked how album in the gallery view art split, with a new added gallery setting "Merge multi disc albums". This may need further tweaking.
Ive also added a donate button to the main menu. 😉

v7.7.2
v7.7.1
v7.7.0
Two main changes this release.
- Updated the shuffle and repeat icons. Yep Ive finally caved on this one. Thanks to @skylineone044 for helping design these. These new icons are less confusing and now also show what sub-mode you're in (in an understandable way).
- There is now a setting to set the background to be artist images rather than just album art under Settings > Theme.
