debop 1.5 is a big update. Apple Music is now optional, and one Mac can serve your whole library to every other Mac in the house. New • Apple Music is optional: debop now works with your own files alone, and you can connect Apple Music later if you want it • Home server: make one Mac your music server and play its library on every other Mac • New Macs copy the library over your local network in minutes instead of syncing through iCloud for hours • Files you import on any Mac go straight to the server • A Mac with its own library can join a server and bring its albums, playlists, notes, and bookmarks along • MQA detection shows which of your rips carry MQA and what they unfold to • Exclusive mode now keeps your DAC reserved for debop while it is selected, even when nothing is playing • Album descriptions, artist biographies, and community ratings from TheAudioDB • Label pages show the label's full catalog, not only the albums you own • PDF booklets and scans attached to an album open on every Mac • A filter bar in Albums narrows the grid by local or streaming, sample rate, and format • Tracks is now a sortable table that loads your whole library at once • Play a catalog album without adding it to your library first • When you delete or move an album folder in Finder, the library updates to match • Remove every version of an album in one step • A new Streamer view and a simpler Server dashboard • Redesigned start screen and first-run setup • Swipe to go back and forward Improvements • Much faster playback start and gapless playback when a Mac plays files from another Mac to a UPnP player • Playback pauses when your DAC disconnects and resumes when it comes back • Apple Music library imports no longer create duplicates of albums you already have as files • Playlist imports tell you which tracks could not be matched • Faster launch with large libraries • Complete German and Japanese translations Fixes • Repeat one and repeat all work again • Removing upcoming tracks from the queue now works for Apple Music albums • Fixed a hang shortly after launch • Many fixes for duplicate albums, missing album tracks, and artwork

Bug fixes and performance improvements.

• Associated artists are now tappable — jump straight to an artist's page from anywhere they appear. • New "Display hidden versions" command lets you reveal album versions you've previously hidden. • Fixed an issue where Apple Music play counts could increase by two instead of one.

This release focuses on reliability and polish: • Redesigned mode switching — a new drawer lets you flip between Controller, Server, and Renderer roles at a glance, with clear buttons to step back out of the Server and Renderer dashboards. • Much more reliable Mac-to-Mac playback — connections to networked renderers resolve faster and hold steady, even over Wi-Fi, VPNs, and multi-network setups. • Fixed an issue that could cause tracks to skip rapidly when streaming to slower UPnP renderers. • Hog Mode now takes true exclusive control of your audio device for bit-perfect output. • Tap a track in search results to jump straight to its album. • Tidier genres and a fixed cover-art hover on the latest macOS. • Full German and Japanese localization.

• **Personal notes for every album.** Add your own thoughts with Markdown formatting — headings, links, and dividers included. Notes stay tidy, collapsing to a few lines until you want more. • **Redesigned bookmarks.** Bookmarks are now a multi-select tag picker. Filter your library by tag, edit on the fly, and jump back in with the new "Listen Again" tag. • **Bug fixes & polish.** Smoother Apple Music playback, better renderer output, refined AirPlay handling, and several crash fixes.

**Play to your whole network** debop can now stream to UPnP/DLNA network players — including LinkPlay- and QPlay-based hardware — so your library reaches every room and every system you own. **Turn a Mac into a wireless endpoint** Use another Mac as a playback device on your network. Start a track on one device and hear it on another, with the now-playing track, artwork, and audio format kept in sync across them. **One place to pick your output** A redesigned output picker shows every destination at once — built-in and USB outputs, AirPlay, UPnP players, and other debop devices — each with its own device icon. Switching where the music plays is now a single tap. **Exclusive, bit-perfect output** New exclusive ("HOG") mode hands a chosen output device entirely to debop for unaltered, bit-perfect playback, and debop matches each track's native sample rate automatically. **Faster, richer library import** The rebuilt import engine shows your albums as they come in instead of making you wait, and fills in deeper metadata (artists, credits, labels, genres, artwork) from multiple sources automatically. **Gapless playback** Albums and live sets that were meant to flow now play seamlessly, with no silence between tracks. **More languages & accessibility** Full German and Japanese localization, plus improved VoiceOver support throughout the app. Thanks for using debop. As always, this release includes stability and performance fixes.

- Gapless playback — albums that were meant to flow continuously now do - Improved album lookups, especially for less common releases - Many small UI refinements throughout the app - Numerous bug fixes

Also a first pass — expect improvements. • Improved search layout • Better MP3 and FLAC import • Bug fixes
