    From LWN.net@86:200/23 to All on Thu Jul 10 06:40:08 2025

    Version
    3.3 of the Amarok music
    player has been released. This is the first release of Amarok based on
    KDE Frameworks 6
    and Qt 6. Amarok 3.3
    also includes a major rework of its audio engine to use GStreamer for audio playback.

    The reworked audio engine provides unified feature set for all users
    and should provide a solid and future-proof sonic experience for years
    to come. Notable improvements have also landed to the database system:
    improved character set support helps with e.g. emojis in podcast
    descriptions and other very exotic symbols, date handling has been
    improved ('year 2038 problem'), and various other potential and actual database-related issues have been fixed.
