- Metadata: album track qualities are made available as metadata, grouped by badge (example value for album with tracks of different qualities: `24/44 (10 songs), 24/48 (1 song)`) - Metadata: avoid album track qualities to list too many formats, for better readability - Initial presentation, the "Artists" tile is now faster to show - Metadata: improved display of artists from a song (should do this for playlists also) - Improve responsiveness of initial page - Avoid possible timeouts in maintenance page "Albums without MusicBrainz", by reading up to 3k albums before forcing a Next button - Add view for albums without CoverArt id (requires to set `subsonicenablemaintenancefeatures` to `1`) - Add view for albums without Genre (requires to set `subsonicenablemaintenancefeatures` to `1`) |

=== upmpdcli: an UPnP front-end to the Music Player Daemon
*upmpdcli* implements an *UPnP* _Media Renderer_, using *MPD* to perform
the real work.
It has been tested with a number of *UPnP* control points running on
*Android* and *Windows*. Because of their good support of *OpenHome*
_Playlists_, which are a significant improvement over bare *UPnP*,
*Bubble UPnP* (*Android* app) and Upplay (*Linux* and
*Windows*) are recommended, but many other control points are usable.
==== How things work:
The Control Points uses the *UPnP* protocols to browse the tracks on the
_Media Server_ and choses URIs to be played. It then talks *UPnP* to *umpdcli*,
which uses the *MPD* client protocol to place the URIs into the *MPD*
playlist. *MPD* finally retrieves the data from the _Media Server_ using HTTP.

Each of the _Control point_, _Media Server_, *MPD* and *upmpdcli* processes
can run on any network host.
