Build b1386v0.1.0-b1386
Your plays can now be scrobbled — or not. This build adds scrobbling to ListenBrainz and Last.fm, a one-switch Private Mode for listening off the record.
- +Scrobble to ListenBrainz and Last.fm
A new Scrobbling pane in Settings connects either service — a pasted user token for ListenBrainz, an OAuth browser sign-in for Last.fm, with credentials held in the macOS Keychain and sent straight from your Mac, never through Kapell. A play qualifies once it's run four minutes or half its length, whichever comes first; skips don't count, and there's no "now playing" ping — only finished listens go out.
- +A durable, capped scrobble outbox
Scrobbles are written to an on-device outbox first and flushed to the service when the network returns, so a dropped connection never costs you a play. The queue is bounded on both age and count, so a long offline stretch can't let the backlog grow without bound.
- +MusicBrainz recording IDs on every scrobble
Where Kapell can resolve one, each scrobble to ListenBrainz carries a MusicBrainz recording MBID rather than plain artist-and-title text — so your history lands on the exact recording, not a same-named live cut or remaster.
- +Private Mode
One switch from the View menu (⌘⇧P) takes a session off the record — your plays stop feeding Apple Music's recommendations, your Listen Log, and any connected scrobblers for as long as it's on. A red PRIVATE chip in the chin means there's never a doubt about whether you're being recorded.
- +Private Mode flips clean mid-song
Toggling Private Mode while something's playing rebuilds the queue quietly in place — playback holds its position and your play/pause state — and a confirmation spells out exactly what the switch will and won't record.
Outgoing scrobbles ride their own pillar in the rack telemetry, with their own tape color, so you can watch them go.
A final icon for the App store!
Revamp of the settings window.
- ✓
Tapping a track deep in a live crate now plays exactly that track instead of a nearby one from the loaded window.
- ✓
The rack's Bus no longer gets cut off at the smallest window height.
