Release Notes
Recent updates to ShadowTag.
-
Audio engine startup reliability — Fixes startup failures on Macs without an input device (such as a Mac Mini with no microphone, or output-only audio interfaces) and a related race condition that could cause the audio engine to fail to initialize during app launch.
-
Drag-and-drop preserves unsaved metadata — Dragging files between playlists no longer discards any unsaved metadata edits on those files.
-
What's New menu item — A new What's New item under the Help menu opens the latest release notes in your browser.
-
Multi-marker delete — Selecting and deleting multiple markers at once now correctly removes all of them. Previously only one was actually removed.
-
Pre-processing options dialogs — Detect Keywords, Tempo, Musical Key, and UCS Category now show options before running, with settings remembered for next time. Detect Keywords adds a new choice to either merge with or replace existing keywords.
-
Better batch error reporting — When a batch process hits errors, a summary of failed files appears at the end instead of being silently skipped.
-
More accurate UCS category detection — Tighter matching, cleaner handling of underscores and hyphens in filenames, fewer noisy tags polluting the results, and a new minimum-quality threshold.
-
MP4 chapter editing rebuilt — More reliable reading and writing of MP4 chapter metadata, supporting both QuickTime and Nero formats. Includes a fix for an issue affecting some MP4 files.
-
Smarter menu state — Menu commands stay disabled while the app is launching, and Editor menu items disable when no file is loaded.
