The docked player and side lyrics use the theme's surface instead of the album colour. Lyrics keep the line being sung near the middle, fade at the edges, and fill in each word for BetterLyrics songs, which now keep their word timings.
A GalReceiver 2014 head unit, whose media sink takes only raw AAC-LC,
reset the connection on the first audio frame. Raw AAC-LC has no header
of its own, so send the AudioSpecificConfig right after Start, as video
does with SPS/PPS. PCM and ADTS sinks are unchanged.

Opening AntennaPod while Metrolist played switched Gearslip's player to
AntennaPod, so the nav bar lost the music and its buttons drove the wrong app.
Leaving an app where nothing started goes back to the one that kept playing.
The intro drops directions, app picks and the button picker. The setup guide's
long pages fade out with a scroll hint, and the app list's names read on dark.
A fresh look, directions at a glance, connecting by itself, better calls and
settings up front, then app picks with an Other cool apps row and the button
picker. The intro is named after its release, so a patch can carry one.
ZLink head units send InfoResponse again once the stream is up. Rejoining
released the network carrying the stream, aborting it a second in, and left the
unit stuck waiting for a version request until ZLink was force closed. A session
ending mid-teardown no longer crashes the app either.
A quarter comes off when the frame rate sags while the encoder waits on acks;
two easy windows put a tenth back. If a cut doesn't help, the car's decoder is
the limit, so the cut is undone and adapting stops for that drive.
Apps built on 1.8 can now hand Gearslip their newer template pieces (chips,
progress bars, timers); drawing them comes next. Vela, Organic Maps and RF
Sentinel connect as before.
Back and the header icon in an app opened from the launcher went to the map app.
The bar above it showed the template class and draw state. Map buttons rest
faintly instead of vanishing, and place cards share the navigation width.
The turn card shows the arrow, distance, instruction, lanes and the next turn;
the trip card stacks time left, arrival and distance. The app centers its map
right of the cards.
Bitmap icons all shared one cache key, so Vela's turn arrows showed whatever
bitmap loaded first (a fuel pin). Route options now show the time and distance
apps send as spans instead of a lone dot.
Small labelled buttons pinned at the bottom of Home, so cards above can't push them out of sight.
Help and tools leaves Settings, Connection help (the same page as Help) goes, What's new moves to
the top of Settings, the intro replay goes, and the debug build's test message gets its own
section there.
A session the car ended left Gearslip thinking one was still running, so the next time the car
came back nothing happened. Only a live session counts now, and each reason not to connect is
logged.
Starting the stream at once and the car's focus answer could both get through, so the car got
Start twice and two AAC encoders ran. A 2014 aftermarket head unit dropped the connection on the
first audio. Directions now also log why a turn went unspoken.
Apps on Car App Library 1.9 and later (Yandex Maps and 2GIS among them) don't reply to a host
that isn't Google's, so a map app on Home sat on its loading message. After 10 seconds without
an answer it now counts as refused, and Home offers another app.
