With this version, it is finally possible to run multiple instances of Audacious (#635). Instances are numbered and can be started with audacious -2, audacious -3, and so on; once running, they can be controlled with audtool -2 <command>, audtool -3 <command>, and so on. Each instance remembers its own configuration.
Support for Windows has been improved:
There is a new installer using NSIS, based on work by Carlo Bramini (#342).
The user interface handles high-resolution displays better and no longer appears blurred due to scaling.
Audio output now uses the native waveOut API, allowing higher bit depths, lower latency, and better integration with the system volume control.
New audtool commands have been added:
Enable/disable stream recording (#594)
Enable/disable any plugin: effects, visualizations, etc. (#638)
Cuesheet support is more seamless, with the following fixes:
More robust logic to prevent adding duplicate entries (#630)
Display artist correctly for cuesheets with only a single PERFORMER line (#644)
Add audio files normally if cuesheet support is disabled (#650)
Track lengths correctly account for pregap with libcue 2.0 or later (#651)
Róbert Čerňanský contributed a new plugin to browse music on an Ampache server. Most of the implementation resides in a separate support library, available here.
Other new features:
Folders can be added from various URI protocols (ftp, mtp, etc.) via GIO (#503)
Audio effects and equalization can optionally be applied to a stream recording (#592)
Search results can be added to the playlist using drag and drop (#621)
Option to display MMM:SS instead of H:MM:SS (#631)
Automatic selection of the best available output bit depth
Album artist support for FLAC and Vorbis files (read-write)
Support for the freedesktop.org startup notification protocol
Existing features ported to the Qt interface:
Scrobbler setup dialog (#656)
Context (right-click) menu in the playlist
Copy-and-paste of playlist entries
“Open Containing Folder” command
Desktop notifications and file deletion (via the appropriate plugins)
Access to the full set of FileWriter options
Bugs fixed since 3.7.2
Silenced an error message at the end of some MP3 files (#628)
Fixed various problems seeking within a PSF file (#649)
Resolved build errors when cross-compiling (#652, #653).
Fixed undefined behavior detected by -fsanitize=undefined compiler flag
Silenced a “no such property” warning with older GTK+ versions
