Release notes
1.9.6 (2026-10-22)
🩹 What's new in v1.9.6
Tracks now play to their very last second before the next one starts.
🎧 Playback
- The end of a track is no longer cut off. When another track followed, WaveFlow moved on as soon as it had read the end of the file rather than once you had heard it, so up to about a second at the end of every track was dropped. It was most noticeable on fade-outs, live recordings and albums meant to flow into each other. WaveFlow now waits for the audio output to play the whole track out before moving on, even if you pause or jump back with an A-B loop during those last moments, and gapless transitions now keep the full tail of the outgoing track instead of cutting it short.

📦 Recommended install
Use your platform's package manager when one is available, so updates keep flowing through the tool you already use.
