Music Presence version 2.3.1: Settings window and full macOS fix

Join the Discord server   Become a Patron   Buy me a coffee

Version 2.3.1 is here! This release introduces a settings window which replaces the old, convoluted way of configuring your Discord presence via the tray menu and opens up more complex configuration for the future. Mac users will be happy to hear that media detection is fixed across the board for all versions of macOS (even 15.4 and above)! Players like foobar2000 and TIDAL now work again on Mac. The app is now signed and notarized as well, so there will be no more "Unidentified developer" warnings.

I intend to work on scrobbling next, but you will receive news about that soon directly within the app. Stay tuned!

Changelog

  • Added a settings window to replace the three menus in the tray
    • The "Appearance", "Player" and "Settings" menus are now removed and all settings that were accessible there have been moved into a dedicated window. To open it, press "Settings" in the tray menu. This implements #44
    • This was a much needed change to allow deeper customization in the future and to allow for more complex configuration. See scrobbling, showing the artist name, fine-grained status customization and blacklisting tracks
    • Modifying settings should now be much more accessible than before. Player-specific settings are organized into tabs in the Appearance menu and you can modify settings for all players at the same time
  • Fixed all media detection for all Mac versions, including macOS 15.4 and above
    • Music Presence now works with all media players again. This fix is enabled by default. See #245
    • If you want to keep using the original fix for macOS, which used Automation with AppleScript, you can switch back to it under "Settings" > "Advanced" > "Use AppleScript automation". Make sure to fully restart the app for the change to take effect. Note that AppleScript automation only works with Apple Music and Spotify
  • Music Presence for Mac is now signed and notarized!
    • You will no longer get the "unidentified developer" warning and you no longer have to perform workarounds in order to bypass Gatekeeper and open the app. My developer ID is "Jonas van den Berg (U64422JR94)"
    • Donations are welcome, if you want to help sustain the costs of the Apple Developer account that is needed for notarization: donate.musicpresence.app
    • Animated cover images for Apple Music will arrive in one of the next updates! See #123
  • Added app news. You will now get a popup on app start whenever there are news regarding Music Presence development
    • News will only be published occassionally and only when the news are important enough that all Music Presence users need to be reached. If you want to get all the news, feel free to join the Discord server!
    • I will publish the first news a few weeks after version 2.3.1 released. Stay tuned!
  • Various bug fixes and small improvements (see the full changelog for details)
  • Added languages: Arabic and Portuguese (Portugal)
  • Added media players: Windows: QQ Music (QQ音乐), Screenbox, Stream Music, WSA (Windows Subsystem for Android), YesPlayMusic (NetEase Cloud Music, 网易云音乐). Mac: Cog, DaftCloud, Plexamp, Submariner
