Hummingbird 0.3 is now available, bringing a ton of new features and bug fixes. Here are some of the highlights:

Library Improvements

You can now split the library in to two halves, allowing you to view artists and albums alongside the table, for more efficient navigation. Additionally, the library sidebar can now be collapsed. We’re looking for feedback on this, so feel free to drop in the Discord (link in header) or leave a GitHub issue.

Updater

Hummingbird will now automatically update itself on macOS, Windows and Linux! This includes support for switching between unstable and stable builds. The auto-updater can be disabled in the settings.

Search

Searching now displays matching tracks and artists in addition to albums. Additionally, tracks and albums can be queued directly from the search menu by middle-clicking or through the newly added context-menu.

Lyrics

Hummingbird now supports lyrics, both unsynchronized and synchronized. Synchronized lyrics are animated and timed with the song, and can be clicked to bring you to the point in the song where the line is sang.

ReplayGain

ReplayGain is now supported, and the tags are automatically read on rescan. Pre-amplification is supported (alongside fallback pre-amp for songs that don’t have ReplayGain tags), and both Track and Album modes are supported (with an Auto mode that picks for you based on whether or not an album is playing).

The Smaller Stuff

There’s a ton of smaller features in this update as well:

• Context menus have been added and refined across the application
• Tooltips have been added to all relevant buttons
• Hummingbird now shows up in your Discord activity
• Multiple themes can now be saved and selected from a dropdown
