In this release there is also a big database migration (moving from CoreData to GRDB for those who are interested) which should help with stability going forwards since I've had many threading issues with CoreData.
This means that this release has a lot of changes in it, which hopefully you'll never notice - but if you do please be patient as I think this is the correct move for the project but we may run into some migration pain.
I'll try my best to resolve issues as soon as I learn about them.

Long time since the last release but hopefully this was worth the wait - Manet will now not transcode AAC or ALAC audio when streaming from Jellyfin (assuming quality settings match of course), reducing your server load.
Other than that there has been lots of small changes, most notably I’ve now fixed it so the app no longer crashes when playing long tracks (more than an hour).
As per usual, here’s a more complete list of things that have changed in this release:
- Added direct play support for AAC and ALAC
- Updated app icon for Liquid Design
- Remember where in the track you left off when launching the app
- Added volume slider to the now playing screen
