News

Version 1.4.3 released - Monday, October 26, 2026

  • About Clementine and About Qt work again in the macOS application menu.
  • With the theme following the system, Clementine switches between light and dark as soon as the system does.
  • On macOS, Plex tracks and other streams from servers with newer certificates now play, instead of failing with "Internal data stream error".
  • The Dock icon's play and pause badge fits in with current macOS, and the icon is sharp on Retina screens.
  • On Retina screens, the playlist's Source column shows its icons at full size again.
  • On macOS, Clementine's icons use the system's SF Symbols: sharp at any size, and following light and dark mode.
  • Clementine Remote no longer mixes up songs Clementine can't read (a missing file, say) with a playlist's first song.
  • Clementine Remote shows songs Clementine can't read (a missing file, say) as the playlist does, rather than as empty rows.
  • The tray icon's play and pause badge is now visible on dark panels.
  • Remotes name this computer by its host name when choosing where to play.
  • Fixed an occasional crash while Clementine reads tags, such as when scanning the library.
  • The remote control settings link to the new Clementine Remote for Android on Google Play.
  • The remote control settings no longer link to ClemRemote, the alternative remote app.
  • Play music on a Chromecast or other Google Cast device: turn on "Allow playing on remote devices" in the network remote settings, then choose the device with the Cast button next to the volume slider.
  • Album covers in the now-playing area are now sharp on high-resolution screens.
  • Under GNOME, Clementine uses GNOME's own icons for its buttons and menus, matching the rest of the desktop in light and dark mode.
  • Clementine has numbered releases again, every week there's something new. Development builds from every change are pre-releases on GitHub.
  • Fixed streams sometimes never starting when they're opened as Clementine starts, from the command line or a remote.
  • Fixed adding songs and streams from a remote's Browse tab on Ubuntu 24.04 and Debian 12.
  • Streams that connect but send nothing now fail after five seconds with an error, instead of waiting for ever.
  • Clementine's scalable icon is now square, as Linux app launchers expect.
