Amarok, an open-source music player for Linux developed by the KDE community, has just released version 3.3.2, as the second bugfix release for the 3.3 “Far Above the Clouds” series.
One notable user-facing change is the addition of the “added to collection” timestamp in the track tag dialog. Previously available only through collection search, this information is now directly visible in track details when supported by the backend.
In addition, the collection browser has received a behavior adjustment: single-click actions now open items, and double-click actions add them to the playlist. Under the hood, Amarok 3.3.2 now depends on KDE Frameworks 6.5.
Regarding bug fixes, the new version includes a wide range, from corrections to Magnatune collection updates and playback, to fixes in the playlist layout editor and improved handling of system notifications, to resolving problems with repeated mute state changes that could cause the player to become unresponsive.
Additional fixes target podcast sorting for specific feeds and ensure that stream URLs are correctly saved in playlist files.
For more information, see the announcement.
Amarok 3.3.2 is available immediately as source code (for those who want to compile it manually), with package repositories across various Linux distributions and the Flathub flatpak expected to update soon.
