WaveFlow 1.9.3 ڈاؤن لوڈ

1.9.3 (2026-10-16)
🩹 What's new in v1.9.3
A scan no longer leaves out a track the player can play.
📚 Library
- Tracks with unreadable tags are no longer left out of the library. A scan used to skip an MP3 whose tags it couldn't read ("failed to parse Mpeg file"), even though the file played fine. WaveFlow now works out the format from the file's content rather than its extension, so an AAC saved as .mp3 is read correctly. It also reads a damaged tag leniently. If the tags still can't be read but the audio plays, the track is added anyway, titled after its file name, with what the decoder reports. The log now gives the exact reason a file was refused, not just the fact that it was. (#874, closes #873)
