NeoRadio Update – New version now available!​

Update directly from the radio menu.

I have prepared a package of fixes and improvements for NeoRadio. I focused primarily on polishing the visual layer and ensuring display stability across various configurations.

Here is what has changed in the latest version:

Design & Layout​

• Main Window Optimization: Improved the layout based on your feedback – the interface is now more intuitive and organized.
• Top Panel: Resized and moved the top picon/fallback. No more graphics overlapping the date and EQ – every element now has its own space.
• Bottom Picon: The large graphic in the bottom panel has been adjusted to sit cleaner and more aesthetically within its frame.
• Clock: The large clock in the center field has been precisely centered and visually refined.
• Enhanced EQ: The visual equalizer has gained more dynamics and clarity.

Stability & Compatibility​

• FHD & HD: Improved layout scaling for both resolutions. Since the plugin uses its own layout, it now runs more stably regardless of the system skin you are using.
• Smart Picons: Added more accurate matching based on bouquet references. The system is now more precise in selecting logos while avoiding "loose" or incorrect graphics.
• Visual Radio: The "Visual Radio" fallback now only appears where a correct picon is genuinely missing.

Localization​

• EN Translations: Refined the English language throughout the interface, including date formatting and key UI descriptions.
