<description>
<ul>
<li>AUDIO: Memalign audio buffers to 64 bytes. This is the most common cache line size, helps with performance. Also fixes issues with platforms like PSP that wrongly assume that malloc returns aligned buffers (to 16bytes). This recently broke the PSP builds</li>
<li>AUDIO/ALSA: Fix float format detection</li>
<li>AUDIO/JACK: Deinterleave in the process callback. This allows us to avoid the extra copy to the deinterleave buffer and lets us use only a single jack ringbuffer</li>
<li>AUDIO/JACK: (Audio/JACK) Fix non-blocking write. Previously we would wait on the condition variable even in the non-blocking case. This improves fast-forward performance massively and brings JACK in line with other backends in that regard</li>
<li>AUDIO/XAUDIO2: Fix threaded audio bugs with cores like Dinothawr</li>
<li>CONFIG: Add support for saving per-directory core options and deleting core option overrides</li>
<li>CONFIG: Enable saving of changed parameters when '#include' directives are used</li>

<li>CONFIG/REMAPS: Allow loading core remaps without content</li>
<li>CONFIG/OVERRIDES: Fix empty override paths when launching without content</li>
<li>CHEATS: Maximum search value corrections</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Generic memory mapping using rcheevos</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Ensure badge textures are released before video driver is deinitialized. Should fix crashes with slang shaders.</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Include achievement runtime state in save states</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Prevent hardcore toggle when emu-handled cheats are active</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Add confirmation submenu to achievements hardcore toggle</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Calculate leaderboard widget spacing based on video resolution</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Show unsupported core message when viewing achievement list for unsupported core</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Allow disabling leaderboard notifications and trackers separately</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Add display widget for active leaderboards</li>
<li>CHEEVOS/CORE OPTIONS: Core options blacklist. Disables hardcore mode when certain core options are set</li>

<li>FONTS: Improve handling of Arabic and Persian text</li>
<li>FONTS/FREETYPE: Use fontconfig to select fonts if available</li>
<li>INPUT: Add hold mode for turbo fire 'Single Button'</li>
<li>INPUT MAPPING: Refresh bind list on device type change</li>
<li>INPUT MAPPING/REMAPPING: Minor bugfix – Remap file browsing starts navigation at input_remapping_directory even if the core-subdir (where saved files go) exists Having remaps for many different cores makes finding the active core files cumbersome, especially because remaps are not compatible between different cores (but maybe for cores emulating the same hardware)</li>
<li>INPUT: Keyboard device mapper rework</li>
<li>INPUT: New input bind order scan/clear fix</li>
<li>INPUT: Duplicate key event blocking additions</li>
<li>INPUT: Prevent duplicate key events with hotkeys + keyboard device type</li>

<li>INPUT/WINDOWS/RAWINPUT: Prevent outside window mouse clicks when grabbed</li>
<li>INPUT/WINDOWS/RAWINPUT: Option for disabling Windows hotkeys</li>
<li>INPUT MAPPING/REMAPPING: Major bugfix – Remap file having a different device type requires manual intervention after loading for the core to register the type properly</li>
<li>JSON: New faster json parser/writer library rjson</li>
<li>JSON/RJSON: Replace rapidjson parser/writer in discord-rpc with rjson</li>
<li>LIBRETRO: Add API extension for cores to query the number of active inputs provided by the frontend</li>
<li>LIBRETRO: Ensure RARCH_CTL_CORE_OPTIONS_LIST_GET returns false if no core options are available</li>

<li>MENU/DESKTOP: Fix mouse cursor limited by window range on F5 press</li>
<li>MENU/DESKTOP: Add simple shader option</li>
<li>MENU/DESKTOP/WINDOWS: Remove broken 'Update RetroArch' functionality for Windows. We want this to not only be system agnostic if we bring it back, but also work outside of the Qt desktop interface</li>
<li>MENU/OZONE: New Theme – Twilight Zone</li>
<li>MENU/RGUI: Add 3:2, 5:3 and 3:2/5:3 (centered) aspects</li>

<li>NETWORK: Add READ/WRITE_CORE_MEMORY network commands</li>
<li>NETWORK: Fix backwards condition in socket blocking behavior</li>
<li>NETWORK/NETPLAY: Attempt IPv4 when IPv6 fails</li>
<li>OGA/VIDEO: support for OGS</li>
<li>OGA: This keeps the tradition DRM driver along with the OGA one. The probe function skips the driver if the screen is non rotated to fall back to the regular DRM driver.</li>
<li>OGA: Fix messages from not disappearing</li>
<li>OGA: Implement RETRO_ENVIRONMENT_GET_CURRENT_SOFTWARE_FRAMEBUFFER. This is a faster rendering codepath for software rendered libretro cores that some libretro cores use right now. Video drivers in RetroArch have to explicitly implement this for this codepath to work at runtime.</li>
<li>OPENDINGUX: Add/Optimise rumble interface</li>
<li>OPENDINGUX: Fix frozen video when enabling fast forward</li>
<li>OPENDINGUX/SDL: OSD font clean-up</li>
<li>OPENDINGUX/SDL: Enable selection of image interpolation method when using 'sdl_dingux' gfx driver</li>
<li>OPENDINGUX/SDL: Enable integer scaling when using the 'sdl_dingux' gfx driver</li>
<li>OVERLAYS: Add option to scale overlays automatically (with aspect ratio correction)</li>
<li>OVERLAYS: Hide Overlay When Gamepad is Connected. Overlays will be hidden automatically when a gamepad is connected in port 1, and shown again when the gamepad is disconnected.</li>
<li>OVERLAYS: New default overlays for mobile (neo-retropad)</li>
<li>OVERLAYS: In addition to overlay scale, the user can now set an Overlay Aspect Adjustment factor. Most overlays are designed for 16:9 displays, which means they become stretched/ugly on modern wide aspect phones and suchlike. By changing the Overlay Aspect Adjustment factor, a user can scale the overlay width/height to achieve a uniform appearance regardless of display resolution.</li>
<li>OVERLAYS/FIX: The Overlay X Offset and Overlay Y Offset options have been fixed, and now work correctly</li>
<li>OVERLAYS/FIX: All of the above options (and Overlay Scale) are configured and saved independently for landscape and portrait display orientations – so adjusting everything for a nice landscape layout won't break the portrait display</li>
<li>OVERLAYS/FIX: When using the Vulkan gfx driver, memory is leaked every time an overlay is freed</li>
<li>OVERLAYS/FIX: When threaded video is enabled, loading overlays with no images (i.e. utility-type overlays, where everything is hidden until the screen is touched) can generate segfaults due to improper usage of realloc()</li>
<li>OVERLAYS/FIX: When Show Inputs on Overlay is enabled, ASAN reports bit shift errors due to an incorrect range check when handling turbo inputs – essentially, there is no upper limit to the considered input id range, which means overlay hotkeys (menu toggle, etc.) are incorrectly treated as having turbo support, causing bit shifts using wildly inappropriate id indices</li>
<li>PLAYLISTS/PORTABLE: Fixed first load initialization</li>
<li>REWIND: Prevent 'Rewind Frames' from being set to '1' incorrectly on load content</li>
<li>RUNAHEAD: Add Run-Ahead Toggle hotkey with notifications</li>
<li>RBUF/ANIMATIONS: Simplify gfx_animation by switching from dynarray to rbuf</li>
<li>RBUF/CORE UPDATER: Replace static entries array with dynamic array via RBUF library</li>
<li>RBUF/M3U: Replace static entries array with dynamic array via RBUF library</li>
<li>SENSORS: Android (crash-)fixes/improvements + add option to disable sensor input</li>
<li>SDL2/VIDEO: Get the SDL2 video driver to work in Wayland/KMS</li>
<li>SAVESTATES: Adding savestate garbage collector for autoincrement stavestates</li>
<li>SAVESTATES/SAVEFILES: Ensure save file and playlist compression is disabled by default</li>
<li>SHADERS: Add option to remember last selected shader preset/shader pass directories</li>
<li>SHADERS: Use last selected shader preset directory when changing shaders via previous/next hotkeys</li>
<li>SHADERS: Remove Parameters line</li>
<li>SHADERS: Shaders fix for duplicate parameters loading bug</li>
<li>SHADERS: Fix Crash change num shader passes in UI</li>
<li>SHADERS/SLANG: Fix slang shaders with rotation</li>
<li>STREAMING/FFMPEG: Add Facebook Game Stream option (for embedded ffmpeg core-enabled RetroArch builds)</li>
<li>TLS/SSL: Add BearSSL support, as alternative to mbedTLS</li>
<li>VIDEO: AddVariable BFI (Black Frame Insertion)</li>

<li>VIDEO FILTERS: Add 'Upscale_256x-320×240' video filter</li>
<li>VIDEO FILTERS: Add 'Upscale1.5x' video filter</li>
<li>WIFI/LAKKA: Add a proper WiFi menu, with Enable/Disable and Disconnect options. This also allows WiFi passwords to be remembered. The underlying tool (connman) allows to store passswords (that's why it auto connects whenever you boot a Lakka device), so we expose this so that the user does not have to re-input the pass when connecting to a saved wifi.</li>

<description>
<ul>
<li>AUTOCONFIG: Ensure correct directory is used when saving autoconfig profiles</li>
<li>BLUETOOTH: Add a Bluetooth driver (Lakka-only for now)</li>
<li>CHEATS: Fix for wrong number of remaining cheat search matches on some machines</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Option to play sound on achievement unlock.</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Upgrade to rcheevos 9.1</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Restore display of unlocked achievements across hardcore modes</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Hash buffered data when available</li>
<li>CHEEVOS: Fix Auto Save State freezes RetroArch while Cheevos is enabled</li>
<li>CORE OPTIONS: Pressing OK (or clicking/tapping) on a boolean toggle core option no longer opens a drop-down list. The value now toggles directly, just like boolean options everywhere else in the menu</li>
<li>CORE OPTIONS: Toggling an option that changes the number of core options being displayed (i.e. things like `Show Advanced Audio/Video Settings) no longer resets the navigation pointer to the start of the list</li>
<li>CORE OPTIONS: Before, RetroArch would identify core option values as being boolean if they had labels matching the specific strings enabled or disabled. Most core devs would abide by this, but not always... As a result, we sometimes would end up with misidentified values, with all kinds of Enabled, Off, True, etc. strings littering the menu, in place of proper toggle switches. All boolean-type value labels are now detected, and replaced with standard ON/OFF strings.</li>
<li>CLI: A new command line option --load-menu-on-error has been added</li>
<li>CRT: On the fly CRT porch adjuments - these changes allow a user to adjust how the porch algorithm generates the 15khz/31khz output. Giving the ability to change over/under scan.</li>
<li>CONFIG FILE: Optimise parsing of configuration files</li>
<li>DRIVERS: Implemented protection to avoid setting critical drivers to nothing thus preventing the user from locking him/herself out of the program</li>
<li>FFMPEG CORE: Prevent seeking past the end of files (hang fix)</li>
<li>FILE I/O: VFS and NBIO interfaces will now use 64-bit fseek/ftell where possible, should allow for reading/writing to files bigger than 2GB</li>

<li>MENU/WIDGETS: Make notification font size option visible when graphics widgets are enabled</li>
<li>PLAYLISTS: Change playlists to use dynamic arrays. Instead of a fixed initial 12MB memory allocation (99999 * 128 byte (on 64bit arch)), use a dynamically growing array</li>
<li>PLAYLISTS: Playlist base content directory paths - portable playlists</li>
<li>PLAYLISTS/SEARCH: Enhanced playlist search functionality</li>
<li>PLAYLISTS/DATABASE: Add Explore view</li>
<li>PLAYLISTS/DATABASE/EXPLORE: Show system icons in explore view</li>

<ul>
<li>AUTO SAVESTATES: Ensure save states are correctly flushed to disk when quitting RetroArch (fixes broken save states when exiting RetroArch - without first closing content - with 'Auto Save State' enabled)</li>
<li>BUILTIN CORES: Builtin cores like ffmpeg and imageviewer would previously try to erroneously load a dynamic core named 'builtin' - this would fail and would just be a wasteful operation - this now skips dylib loading in libretro_get_system_info for builtin cores</li>

<li>CORE DOWNLOADER: Pressing RetroPad start on a selected, installed entry opens the Core Information menu (when using Material UI, swiping left or right triggers the same action). This means we can now view bios info etc. - and more importantly delete cores - without jumping through all the hoops of loading a core first and navigating all over the place</li>
<li>CORE DOWNLOADER/UPDATER: Add option to automatically backup cores when updating</li>
<li>DISK CONTROL: Enable 'Load New Disc' while disk tray is open</li>

<li>CAMERA/BUGFIX: Fix crash when a core requires the camera driver and the platform only has a null driver. This would crash mgba on Wii for example</li>
<li>DISK CONTROL: Cycle Disk Tray now becomes Eject Disk or Insert Disk depending upon current drive state</li>
<li>DISK CONTROL: Current Disk Index is only shown when the current disk has been ejected</li>
<li>DISK CONTROL: The old Insert Disk entry has been changed to Load New Disk, and is only shown when a disk is currently inserted (this is because loading a new disk from the filesystem - i.e. bypassing the m3u playlist disk index interface - automatically ejects and inserts disks, and so cannot be done while the virtual drive is empty)</li>

<li>OPENGL: Shaders are now working properly (only in OpenGL) when rotating both from Core API rotation and from menu video rotation. The fix is clearly visible with crt-royale for example.</li>
<li>OPENGL: 1:1 PAR is now correct when rotating (both from Core API rotation and from menu video rotation, as you said, in the latter case you currently have to change Aspect Ratio after menu video rotation for it to work).</li>
<li>OPENGL: When using Custom Aspect Ratio and rotation (both from Core API rotation and from menu video rotation), Integer Scaling is now working properly (correct multiples of internal resolution). Even when Integer Scaling is not activated, the Custom AR width / height are now correctly labeled using (1x), (2x), ... suffixes. You also have to activate Integer Scaling after menu video rotation for it to work.</li>
<li>OPENGL: For all other Aspect Ratio options, Integer Scaling and rotation (both from Core API rotation and from menu video rotation) are now working properly together (correct multiples of internal resolution). You also have to activate Integer Scaling after menu video rotation for it to work.</li>
<li>PLAYLISTS: Pressing 'Start' or long touching a playlist will bring you to a Playlist submenu where you can set a default core, setup thumbnail view, delete the playlist, etc.</li>
<li>SCANNER: Manual scanner, not dependent on database files.</li>
<li>SCANNER/MANUAL: Add option to scan inside archives.</li>
<li>SCANNER/MANUAL: Enable automatic naming of arcade content via DAT files. This is compatible with DAT files in either Logiqx XML or MAME List XML format.</li>
<li>VIDEO: Do not reinit video driver on SET_SYSTEM_AV_INFO unless needed.</li>
<li>VIDEO: Support DRC even when using a vsync swap interval higher than 1.</li>
<li>VIDEO LAYOUT: Fixed XML parsing of attributes with spaces, should fix issues with several video layouts.</li>
<li>VULKAN/ANDROID: Workaround weird WSI return codes in landscape mode - Android WSI wants you to use preTransform, and if it is not used correctly, Android 10 will return VK_SUBOPTIMAL_KHR, and we would create a new swapchain every frame. This workaround just ignores this error, since it's not really an error. A more "proper" fix is to use prerotate and modify the MVP matrices,
which might help certain devices with crummy display processors.</li>
<li>VULKAN/ANDROID: Recreate swapchain on orientation change. ANativeWindow getWidth/Height does not detect any changes when using
Vulkan, so use the old onContentRectChanged callback to get notified when size changed. Use those values instead when figuring out how large swapchain to create.</li>
