  • Mac: Generate build with Qt 5.15.2 for better compatibility with Big Sur (#1687, #1768).
    We still build a legacy version with Qt 5.9.9 to support older versions of macOS:

    • Users of 10.13 (High sierra) or newer should use the standard build with Qt 5.15.2
    • Users of Yosemite, El Capitan or Sierra should use the legacy build with Qt 5.9.9
      (contributed by @softins)

  • Code: Added automatic code formatting with clang-format (#901, #1127).
    (contributed by @passing)

  • GUI: Moved the Ping and Delay stats from the Settings window to the main window (#1762)
    This was partly to work around a Mac issue with updates to the settings window (#1643)
    and is actually an improvement anyway, as the settings window does not need to remain open.
    (contributed by @dcorson-ticino-com and @softins)

  • GUI: Added "About Qt" to the help menu to display version of Qt (#1685, #1692).
    (contributed by @softins)

    (contributed by @menzels, @softins)

  • Github autobuild for Mac now uses Xcode 11.7 and SDK 10.15 for compatibility
    with Qt5 (#1655).
    (contributed by @softins)

  • GUI: Corrected handling of custom directory server in the server, to prevent
    unintended registration with a directory server (#1624, #1627).
    (contributed by @softins)

  • GUI: Corrected alignment of Mute icon above fader (#811, #1312, #1640).
    (contributed by @vimpostor)

  • The term "Central server" has been replaced with "Directory server" (#1407).
    Note that the program will still accept the --centralserver option for backward
    compatibility with existing system startup scripts.

  • GUI: Settings window has been reorganized into tabs (#1415, #1554, #1542):

    • User Profile window has been integrated into the settings window.

  • Server: Support for Delay Panning has been added (#332, #567, #1151, #1417, #1744):
    This feature can be enabled on servers using the new --delaypan option.
    Enabling this feature will slightly increase server CPU usage.
    It can create a much more realistic spatial sound impression for clients
    that are set to Stereo or Mono-in/Stereo-out mode.
    (contributed by @DetlefHennings, @Hk1020, @softins, @henkdegroot)

  • Server: Half-connected clients will no longer receive audio (#1243, #1589):
    Note: This breaks compatibility with client versions before 3.3.0 (Feb 2013).
    If you update your server, ensure that all clients use 3.3.0 or later as well.
    (contributed by @softins)

    (contributed by @hoffie, @drummer1154)

    This can be done by the new --serverbindip option.
    (contributed by @buv)

    Non-ASCII characters are now stripped out when creating filenames.
