Full Changelog: v1.2.4...v1.2.5

Lyrics side panel is back
The Apple Music-style lyrics side panel returns — an overlay on the right with live word-by-word karaoke, sharing the exact rendering of the full lyrics page. Toggle it from the playback bar menu, click a line to seek, and it auto-follows the song (pausing briefly when you scroll).

Full Changelog: v1.1.8...v1.1.9

Bug fixes & improvements.
Full Changelog: v1.1.7...v1.1.8

What's Changed
🎉 New Features
- Paste Apple Music URL or album ID for animated artwork search — when iTunes free-text /search misses an album (e.g. Bad Bunny's nadie sabe lo que va a pasar mañana), paste a music.apple.com/.../album/.../<id> URL or just the numeric ID into the new input on the Animated Artwork tab to route through /lookup?id= and find it deterministically
- Search lyrics button on Metadata > Synced Lyrics tab — fetches synced lyrics from LRCLIB by track title + artist + duration, auto-fills the textbox, ticks Enable, and shows "Lyrics found" / "No Lyrics found" status next to the button
- Join Discord button in Settings > About — sits next to Star on GitHub, opens the Noctis Discord server
- Discord badge in README — gray DISCORD + blue JOIN SERVER pill alongside the existing License/Platform/.NET/Downloads/Build badges
🔧 Bug Fixes
- Metadata editor input borders invisible in light theme — made visible and properly themed
- Inline playback bar on lyrics page showing stale album art + track title after returning from another view — fixed display state persistence
- Lyrics page View Album navigation not participating in page history — fixed to use normal navigation flow
- Album Back behavior from lyrics — Albums/Home → Lyrics → Album → Back now correctly returns to Lyrics instead of jumping to Albums
- View Album from playback bar ⋯ menu — now uses same album navigation path as lyrics-page album link
- Lyrics button toggle incorrectly returning to wrong page — clicking lyrics button on lyrics page correctly returns to previous page
- Lyrics column blank flash on return to lyrics — refreshed active lyric position immediately and jumped to active line instead of delayed scroll
- Main playback bar shrinking behind lyrics page — added CompactWhenLyricsPageActive="False" to main PlaybackBarView only
- Lyrics page playback bar visibility state — cleaned up with separate mounted/visible/opacity/hit-test properties
- Settings equalizer dropdown shifting — kept preset list stable (always including Custom), pinned ComboBox width, disabled hover scaling
- Lyrics page "View Album" visual glitch — deferred album navigation one UI dispatcher turn so menu/flyout closes before page switch
- Album-detail navigation chrome from Lyrics/playback controls — forced cover-flow state off and hid Library/Cover Flow toggle
- Equalizer slider/preset lag — EQ changes were taking up to ~1s to become audible because VLC's default --file-caching=300ms buffer held pre-EQ-filtered audio. Reduced --file-caching, --live-caching, and --disc-caching to 50ms while leaving --clock-jitter at its 5000ms default so Bluetooth / high-latency endpoints stay stable
- 3-dot menu shifting down on open in album-detail track rows — the default Button press-scale was momentarily shrinking the button bounds, moving the popup anchor between mousedown and mouseup. Pinned RenderTransform="scale(1)" and emptied transitions on the row 3-dot button so the anchor stays stable
- Lyrics page 1:47 right-side timestamp inconsistent with 1:40 — left side had Margin="10,0,0,0" while the right side was flush against the slider edge. Added matching right margin for symmetry
- Animated artwork preview textbox clipped at the top — fixed-Height="360" preview Border was overflowing the bottom-docked panel when the new URL textbox + caption took up extra vertical space. Switched to MaxHeight="360" with VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
- README Home screenshot not rendering on GitHub — file on disk was Home.png (capital H) while README referenced home.png (lowercase). GitHub's filesystem is case-sensitive; renamed to match
- Settings scan progress text — "Scanning Library 1900..." (with the live count + ellipsis) replaced with a clean "Scanning Library"
⚡ Performance
- Equalizer application reworked — settings changes no longer run native VLC work directly on UI thread; EQ state updates immediately with coalesced background worker applying latest state
🎨 UI Polish
- All Back button labe

What's Changed
🎉 New Features
- Custom user themes — CustomThemeDefinition with dark/light modes, 5-input color picker, live preview pane, theme editor dialog

- MusicBrainz biography service — fetches and caches per-artist data at %APPDATA%\Noctis\artist_bios, 1 req/sec TOS-gated
- Performer field in metadata — custom PERFORMER tag for round-trip without colliding main Artist field
- iTunes Search Artwork — red pill button opens flyout with up to 8 candidates from Apple's public API, Standard/Highest resolution options

- Top Artists row on Home — 6-column circular avatars ranked by play count, Deezer image enrichment, click-through to Artist Detail
- Unified Add to Playlist dialog — pick existing playlist or inline-create with name + description, replaces legacy submenu flow across 11 surfaces

- Queue Popup redesign — "Currently Playing" header, now-playing track card, track count, Clear pill, sticky behavior (doesn't close on nav/outside clicks)
- Queue drag-to-reorder (Apple Music UX) — pointer-tracked dragging with 6px threshold, floating pill preview, drop indicator line, MoveInQueue sync
- Playlist drag-to-reorder — floating pill preview (cover + title + artist + duration), pointer-tracked with existing drop indicator, exclude smart playlists
- Lyrics page full playback bar redesign — standard PlaybackBarView instead of custom bar, new Observable flags on PlayerViewModel, lyrics-mode entries in ⋯ menu
- Standalone lyrics timeline slider — current/remaining time labels, draggable seek, sits below track metadata
- Compact lyrics-page controls-only strip — hides mini cover art, artist/title, old timeline while maintaining normal layout elsewhere
🔧 Bug Fixes
- Album-art flicker on track switch — previous artwork stays visible until new bitmap decodes; explicit clear only when no artwork
- Ctrl+A select-all outside Albums tab — added Focusable/Focus/OnViewKeyDown wiring to Home, Songs, Playlist, Favorites
- Artist detail page not rendering — added ArtistDetailViewModel → ArtistDetailView mapping in App.axaml
- Semantic reds tinted by accent color — restored to literal #E74856 across 8 views + TrackContextMenuBuilder
- Settings toggles not updating live on accent change — App.AccentApplied event with LottieToggle resubscribe on OnLoaded/OnUnloaded
- Lyrics page accent text not updating live — LyricsViewModel subscribes to AccentApplied, replays UpdateForegroundsForBackground
- Combined-name artist images falling back to silhouette — IsDeezerPlaceholderUrl detection, primary-artist fallback in ArtistImageService
- Click zoom animation on artist rows — Button.artist-item:pressed { scale(1) } override
- Empty Home section headers — Most Listened To/Recently Played hidden when no content
- iTunes advisory dropdown clipping — reduced width so arrow sits closer to text
- Artwork search returning random results — prioritizes album artwork, falls back to track title for standalone singles
- Animated artwork search HLS-only failure — parses Apple Music variants instead of stopping at HLS playlist
- Animated artwork removal not clearing preview — preview now clears immediately on remove
- Metadata tab hover color going gray — kept accent color on Artwork/Animated Artwork tab text
- Metadata popup dropdo
