Moonfin v1.3.2 Release Notes github

Bug Fixes

  • Season Mark as Watched — Fixed a freeze when marking an entire season as watched or toggling favorites from the season detail screen.

  • Audio & Subtitle Menu Selection — Fixed audio and subtitle track selectors not responding to item selection.

Moonfin v1.3.1 Release Notes github

Fixed

-Sidebar disappearing after returning from detail screens — fixed a race condition where the sidebar slide animation could override manual position resets, leaving it stuck off-screen

-Subtitle/audio menu trapping player focus — the OSD is now properly dismissed before opening subtitle or audio track selectors during video playback

-Crash when selecting a series from the featured media bar — safely resolved the item ID for series that use lightweight ContentNodes without a .json sub-object
