# QBZ 1.2.0 Release Highlights
|
|
|
|
## Highlights
|
|
|
|
- **Qobuz Connect** — full multi-device playback: renderer and controller mode, server-authoritative queue, bidirectional transport controls, session management, and device presence
|
|
- **Linebed visualizer** — 200-line 3D terrain driven by 4096-point FFT with real perspective projection at 60fps
|
|
- **Qobuz playlist follow/unfollow** — subscribe to playlists on your Qobuz account; new Favorites/Following sub-tabs
|
|
- **Audio settings sync overhaul** — all critical settings now sync to the player immediately; fixes exclusive mode not working with QConnect
|
|
- **Volume lock for ALSA Direct hw:** — software volume locked at 100% when bit-perfect hardware output is active
|
|
- **HiFi Wizard** — real DAC sample rates from /proc/asound; help tooltips on bit-perfect settings
|
|
- **MuPDF 0.6** — booklet viewer restored on Arch Linux
|
|
- **Offline mode** — Start Offline button on network error screen
|
|

|
## Audio
|
|
|
|

|
|
- Volume locked at 100% on ALSA Direct hw: — adjust at DAC level
|
|
- PipeWire rate switching: longer delay, post-creation verification, automatic retry
|
|
- HiFi Wizard reads real DAC rates from /proc/asound instead of hardcoded defaults
|
|
|
|
## Playlists

|
|
