What's New

I've just released Mp3tag v3.34 and wanted to outline some of the new features and changes. Before that, I want to thank everyone who gave feedback during the beta cycle.

Modern Icons

I've updated the toolbar and menu icons with a more modern look. They're now sharper, scale better across different resolutions, and are easier to read, especially in dark mode, where they use more vibrant colors.

From early beta feedback, I know that (like with any visual change) some people immediately enjoy the new look, while others prefer what they're used to.

If you give the new icons a try and decide they're not for you, you can switch back to the Original set via Options → Appearance → Icons. I've also redrawn those so it looks crisp at larger sizes and when scaling is enabled.

User Interface Scaling

Requests for larger fonts and better readability have been around for a long time. Until now, I usually pointed to the Windows DPI settings, but those often come with trade-offs in other apps.

With this release, you can now scale Mp3tag's interface from 100% to 200% in 10% increments.

So if you ever found yourself squinting your eyes while managing your music library, check if you need to adjust your system's display settings or use this new option at Options → Appearance → User Interface Scaling.

Toolbar Configuration

This version also introduces a customizable toolbar.

You can rearrange buttons, choose different symbols, add commands that were previously only available via the menu, include external tools, run actions and action groups directly, or trigger specific tag sources with a single click.

It's available via right click on the toolbar or View → Toolbars → Customize main toolbar.... Here, you also find an option to customize the newly introduced Custom Toolbar, a second toolbar for even more flexibility.

Bugfixes and Internal Changes

As always, this new version also includes bug fixes and many other improvements. For example, an option to write an UTF-8 BOM for m3u8 playlists at Options → Playlist.
