  • Added a new zoom mode to the Reader, "Fit to Both", to fit the page/s to the width and height of the viewable area.
  • Expanded the "Automatic Page Turn" setting in the "Comic Book Reader > Navigation" subsection of the Preferences. Now, when selecting the "On scroll boundaries" option, some time values can be changed to customize its behavior.
  • Made scrolling the pages using the keyboard smoother on key presses, instead of instant, and more precise if you keep holding down.
  • Added more advanced options to the "Convert Images" tool.
  • Increased the timeout for the Project Gutenberg search tool and added a cancel button, as the website it relies on can be quite slow to respond lately.
  • Updated the Flatpak version's runtime to 25.08.
  • Updated the image processing library, sharp, to a newer version.
  • Refactored all the image operations' code to avoid crashes due to glib conflicts caused by the new runtime and image library updates.
  • Fixed books with broken image files getting stuck trying to load the error page image due to a path change in a recent update.
  • Fixed the test images used by some tools showing as broken due to a path change in a recent update.

  • Added more ways to manage the "Convert Comics", "Extract Comics" and "Create Comic" tools' input list. The "Add Files", "Add Folders" and "Clear List" buttons are now at the top of the list and when the list grows bigger than 10 elements another set of the same buttons is placed at its bottom. Also, when right-clicking inside the list, the context menu now shows entries for those actions.
  • Fixed setting the "Convert Comics" tool's "Input Folders Contain" advanced input option to "The image files from a single comic book each" no longer working.

  • Made feed items with both description and content data in the RSS Reader start showing only the description and a expand/collapse button to show/hide the content, so it's easier to read and navigate them.
  • Added Zona Negativa's feed to the RSS Reader's defaults.
  • Fixed the changelog formatting in the check for updates modal when there is a new version.
  • Fixed the Media Player's subtitle rendering so tags (italics, bold...) are shown correctly.

  • Added a new command line flag, --player, that makes ACBR launch in "Media Player Mode". In this mode the media player runs as if it was a stand alone application, without the Reader's main window or other tools.
  • Added a new command line flag, --cli, that allows launching a text mode version of some of the tools ("Convert Comics", "Extract Comics" and "Create Comic") that runs directly through the command line rather than the graphical user interface.
  • Fixed the RSS Reader showing the short summary instead of the full content for an RSS feed item if both are available.
