multibg-wayland/CHANGELOG.md

Changelog

0.2.2 - 2025-06-15

• Fix Wayland protocol error invalid stride on wl_shm with bgr888 format #17
• Update dependencies, notably zune-jpeg fixing a minor discoloration issue on decoded JPEG images

0.2.1 - 2025-06-01

• Fix niri compatibility #16
• Update dependencies

0.2.0 - 2025-04-26

Breaking changes

• Project is being renamed to multibg-wayland to signify support for Wayland compositors other than Sway
• Terminate gracefully on signals INT, HUP or TERM with exit code 0. A second of such signals still kills. USR1 and USR2 are reserved for future use
• License of the source files is still MIT OR Apache-2.0 but built objects now might be under GPL-3.0-or-later.
• Arch Linux package now depends on dav1d

Other changes

• Added support for the Hyprland and niri wayland compositors
• Inside the wallpaper directory wallpapers symlinked to the same image are now loaded only once and shared saving memory use
• Correct docs about the memory type we use. We only used CPU memory and will only use CPU memory unless the new --gpu option is given.
• Add ability to store wallpapers in GPU memory with the --gpu command line option. Requires Vulkan 1.1 or newer. This might save a few milliseconds latency on wallpaper switches avoiding the use of CPU memory and PCIe bandwidth
• Added support for AVIF images. Requires dav1d native dependency and the avif compile time feature (disabled by default for from source builds, enabled by default for Arch Linux package)
• Update README for the new features
• Update dependencies, require Rust compiler version 1.82 or newer
• Lots of internal changes supporting all the above

0.1.10 - 2024-11-17

• Fix sometimes disappearing mouse cursor above wallpapers
• Add small clarifications to README
• Update Arch Linux PKGBUILD to follow their Rust package guidelines
• Add minimum supported Rust version so Cargo can enforce it at build time
• Update dependencies

0.1.9 - 2024-10-09

• Fix broken wallpapers on 90 degree rotated monitors #9
• Update dependencies

0.1.8 - 2024-09-30

• Try to fix crash with wayland protocol error regarding wlr_layer_surface #8
• Update dependencies
• Add logging messages
• Code formatting with editorconfig

0.1.7 - 2024-05-11

• Fix image corruption for certain pixel formats when output width is not a multiple of 4 #6
• Add the --pixelformat cli argument. Setting --pixelformat=baseline can force wl_buffers to use the wayland default xrgb8888 pixel format if bgr888 or future others would break for any reason

0.1.6 - 2024-03-25

• Fix displaying the wallpapers on outputs with fractional scale factor. This may help with #5

0.1.5 - 2024-01-02

• Fix displaying the wallpapers on outputs with higher than 1 integer scale factor. This may help with #4

• Log graphics memory use (our wayland shared memory pool sizes)
• Minor fix to avoid a logged error on redrawing backgrounds already being drawn
