As this is a complete rewrite and many things have changed all versions of YouTube Music Desktop App before 2.0.0 are considered a different application and will have a leftover install and data of Version 1.Y.Z.

v2.0.0-rc.4

OLD BUILD

This build is a «Pre-release build» to the v2 application which has now been fully released. We recommend downloading the latest build of the application INSTEAD of this.

Original Description

NOTICE: YouTube Music has made an internal change that will break this version and under

This is a release candidate build for v2.0.0. Full release notes will come with v2.0.0

There has been a significant amount of changes since v2.0.0-rc.3 based on the feedback and bugs reported since then.

macOS Users: We have corrected a bug that prevented launching the application due to a code signing issue. For apple silicon issues refer below about ARM builds

ARM Users: We have included more arm builds as the workflow for them has improved thanks to @ElectricalBoy for #1169. We want to use this release to test the ARM builds for various platforms if you have a native ARM device. These builds may not work or may have problems as we don’t have machines that can natively create an ARM version of YTMDesktop. Windows currently does not have an ARM build due to file conflicts with x64 when publishing

Fixed:

  • Crash on 1 letter titles #1167
  • Crash on certain media when missing title, author, or a duration #1164
  • Disable auto updater for macOS due to inability to launch the app with it #1156
  • Rewrite Discord rich presence integration making it more reliable and less crash prone #1160
  • Fix region specific issues where YouTube Music would not load because a premium membership is required #1168
    • There is still an active issue of #1170 that is open which states that a non premium membership account login will always end up at a 400 bad request page. This is likely related to the fix here but is a low priority issue.
  • Fix tray icon click for window show/restore. If a window was minimized and the tray icon was clicked it may lead to an empty window until resized
  • Disallow hardware volume keys & pause/break key from shortcuts preventing application crashes
  • Fix + key in shortcuts. It will now properly translate the key so the application doesn’t crash and the key can be used

Other miscellaneous changes & quality of life:

  • Automatically save state every 5 minutes relating to #1162. This is more of a temporary fix until a more robust solution is created
  • Add home button to titlebar to navigate to YouTube Music home page if needed. e.g. stuck at login page
  • Add dialog popup if YouTube Music is preventing navigation
  • Only save YouTube Music urls to state e.g. to prevent the login page from being saved
  • Discord presence is no longer updated at the speed of light. The app is now more considerate how often it sends presence updates
  • Add thumbs up/thumbs down shortcut back
  • Zoom setting added under Settings -> Appearance to change the zoom level of YouTube Music
  • Add the current YouTube Music page title to the main window title. This may be useful for third party applications reading window titles in the process list. YTMDesktop will append | YouTube Music Desktop App to the title of the window
  • Fix window icons for various platforms whereas previously it would show the default electron icon
  • Add a loading screen with status information. If YouTube Music takes longer than 30 seconds to load a message will be shown to help indicate there may be a problem e.g. network is very slow or the application is malfunctioning
  • Add (Unresponsive) to titlebar if the YouTube Music view is being unresponsive
  • ⚡ Various performance optimizations
  • 🔒 Various security hardening changes

Developer related changes:

  • Add album/albumId to the API
  • Add toggleLike/toggleDislike as a remote command to the API
  • Add playQueueIndex as a remote command to the API
  • Add likeStatus to the API
  • If developer tools are enabled, you can now right click the YouTube Music view to open the developer tools of YouTube Music
