GNOME Media 0.4.0 — 2026-11-07
==============================

First release of GNOME Media, continuing GNOME Radio, with individualisation.

Profiles
 * Several profiles per user account, created, renamed, switched and
   deleted from the header bar avatar menu and Preferences
 * Each profile has its own appearance, sound, favourites, playlists,
   listening history and recommendation setting
 * Switching profile during playback credits the time heard so far to
   the previous profile and applies the new profile's sound immediately
 * Profiles are stored as private (0600) key files, loaded tolerantly so
   a damaged file never loses the whole profile

Recommendations
 * New "For You" page with a personal greeting
 * On-device model using genre, country, time of day and station
   affinity, recency decay, skip detection and daily rotating novelty
 * Every suggestion shows why it was made
 * Can be turned off per profile; history can be cleared

Sound
 * 10-band equalizer with 9 presets (Flat, Speech, News & Talk,
   Classical, Jazz, Pop, Rock, Bass Boost, Treble Boost) or custom
 * Loudness levelling with a soft-knee compressor
 * Per-profile volume on a perceptual scale

Playlists and favourites
 * Star any station; favourites page
 * Named playlists with reorder and remove; next and previous in the
   player bar
 * Stations no longer in the catalog are kept and marked unavailable

Other
 * GTK 4 / libadwaita interface with adaptive layout
 * User station overrides in ~/.local/share/gnome-media/stations.xml
 * Norwegian Bokmål translation
 * Core library buildable and testable without GTK (-Dui=false)
