## [0.5.0] - 2026-07-08
9

+
### Added
11
+
- **MPRIS support** (`fin-mpris`) — on Linux and the BSDs, fin registers
12
+
`org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.fin` on the D-Bus session bus while the TUI
13
+
runs, so media keys, GNOME/KDE applets, waybar and `playerctl` can
14
+
drive playback: play/pause, next/previous, seek and SetPosition,
15
+
volume, shuffle and repeat (mapped to MPRIS `LoopStatus`), with track
16
+
metadata (title, artist, duration, cover art) pushed as
17
+
`PropertiesChanged`/`Seeked` signals. The MPRIS player shares the same
18
+
swappable renderer handle as the TUI and the UPnP MediaRenderer, so
19
+
desktop controls follow you when you switch to a Chromecast or UPnP
20
+
device. Built on zbus (pure Rust — no dbus system library needed);
21
+
starting without a session bus (headless/SSH) is a non-fatal warning.
22
+
A second fin instance falls back to a pid-suffixed bus name per the
23
+
MPRIS spec.
