Cover art handling got a few fixes too, including configurable max upload size. Plugin developers now get the file path in TrackInfo for Scrobbler and Lyrics plugins. ## Configuration Changes | Status | Option | Description | Default | |--------|--------|-------------|---------| | New | `MaxImageUploadSize` | Maximum allowed size for uploaded cover art images. Accepts human-readable values like '10MB', '1GB'. ([#5335](https://github.com/navidrome/navidrome/pull/5335)) | `10MB` | For a complete list of all configuration options, see the [Configuration Options](https://www.navidrome.org/docs/usage/configuration-options/) documentation. ## UI - Prevent theme CSS filters from affecting disc cover art.

This patch release addresses a WebP performance regression on low-power hardware introduced in v0.61.0, adds a new `EnableWebPEncoding` config option and a configurable UI cover art size, and includes several Subsonic API and translation fixes. ## Configuration Changes | Status | Option | Description | Default | |--------|--------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------| | New | `EnableWebPEncoding` | Opt-in to WebP encoding for resized artwork.

This version brings a comprehensive **Artwork overhaul**, with per-disc cover art, artist image uploads, animated image preservation, and a faster image pipeline powered by WebP encoding. You can now upload custom artwork for playlists, artists, and internet radios directly from the UI, and multi-disc albums will automatically pick up disc-specific cover images. **Search** has been completely rebuilt on top of SQLite FTS5 with two-phase BM25 ranking, delivering faster and more accurate results across your entire library. **Transcoding** is now fully server-managed: Navidrome detects client codecs, applies format-aware bitrate defaults, and implements the [OpenSubsonic Transcoding extension](https://opensubsonic.netlify.app/docs/extensions/transcoding/), so clients no longer need to guess what format to request. The **Plugin System** continues to mature with new host services for HTTP requests, persistent task queues, lyrics providers, and key-value storage with TTL support, giving plugin developers more tools to build powerful integrations. ## Security - Bump `golang.org/x/image` to v0.38.0 to address CVE-2026-33809.

## Plugins This release introduces a major rewrite of the experimental **Plugin System**, now with multi-language PDK support, enabling developers to extend Navidrome's functionality using WebAssembly-based plugins written in Go, Rust, Python or JavaScript. Plugins run in a secure sandbox and can provide additional metadata sources, custom integrations, and server-side enhancements. Users can now easily configure plugins directly from the UI through a new JSONForms-based configuration interface. A couple of working plugins are already available: - [AudioMuse-AI integration](https://github.com/NeptuneHub/AudioMuse-AI-NV-plugin) - [ListenBrainz Daily Playlist Importer](https://github.com/kgarner7/navidrome-listenbrainz-daily-playlist) - [Discord Rich Presence](https://github.com/navidrome/discord-rich-presence-plugin) For more plugins, keep an eye on the tag [navidrome-plugins](https://github.com/topics/navidrome-plugin) in GitHub. More details and instructions on how to use and manage plugins can be found in our [documentation](https://www.navidrome.org/docs/usage/features/plugins/). New documentation will soon be added with details on how to create new plugins.

This release brings significant improvements and new features: - **Scanner Improvements**: Selective folder scanning and enhancements to the file system watcher for better performance and reliability. - **Scrobble History**: Native scrobble/listen history tracking, allowing Navidrome to keep a record of your listening habits. This will be used in future visualizations and features (Navidrome Wrapped maybe?). - **User Administration**: New CLI commands for user management, making it easier to handle user accounts from the terminal. - **New Themes**: Two new themes have been added: SquiddiesGlass and AMusic (Apple Music inspired). - **General**: Numerous bug fixes, translation updates, and configuration options for advanced use cases. ## Added - UI Features: - Add AMusic (Apple Music inspired) theme.

# Navidrome v0.58.0 Release Notes Navidrome v0.58.0 introduces [**Multi-library Support**](https://www.navidrome.org/docs/usage/multi-library/), a major architectural enhancement that enables users to organize and manage multiple music collections with proper permission controls and complete UI integration. This long-requested feature allows you to create separate libraries for different music collections (e.g., personal music, family music, audiobooks) while maintaining proper access controls and data isolation. For full documentation on how to use it, see the new [Multi-library](https://www.navidrome.org/docs/usage/multi-library/) page in the documentation website. ## ⚠️ Important ### Full Scan Although this release does not force a full scan on upgrade, you should do it as soon as possible. This is because the multi-library changes affect the move/rename/retag detection and can potentially make you lose annotations (stars, playcounts, playlist references). During the full scan, it will duplicate all your albums, but that's expected. It will remove the duplicates at the end of the scan. ### Database Migration Warning **This release includes database schema ch
