enabled (on new games)
- CHEEVOS: Option to start a session with all achievements active
- CHEEVOS: Don't perform unnecessary cheevos initialisation when cheevos are \ 
disabled. Should reduce startup times when loading content.

# 1.8.6
- ARCHIVE/ZIP: Expand functionality of 'rzip_stream' interface. This PR expands \ 
the functionality of the new rzip_stream archived stream interface such that it \ 
now has almost complete feature parity with the standard file_stream interface, \ 
and can therefore be used as a drop-in replacement in most situations
- AI SERVICE: Hide redundant entries when service is disabled
- AI SERVICE: Added in auto-translate support
- AI SERVICE: support for NVDA and SAPI narration
- AUTOCONFIG: Use correct port index in input device configured/disconnected \ 
notifications
- BUGFIX: Fix race condition where task could momentarily not be in the queue \ 
when reordering
- CHEEVOS/BUGFIX: Prevent null reference rendering achievement list while \ 
closing application
- CHEEVOS/BUGFIX: Report non-memorymap GBA cores as unsupported
- COMMANDLINE: Advise against using -s and -S variables on the command line. …
- CONFIG FILE: Only write config files to disk when parameters change
- CONFIG FILE/BUGFIX: RetroArch no longer crashes when attempting to save a \ 
config file after 'unsetting' a parameter (currently, this can be triggered \ 
quite easily by manipulating input remaps)
- CONFIG FILE/BUGFIX: When using Material UI, RetroArch no longer modifies the \ 
wrong setting (or segfaults...) when tapping entries in the Quick Menu > \ 
Controls input remapping submenu
- CONFIG FILE/BUGFIX: Quite a few real and potential memory leaks have been fixed.
- CHD: Fixes a crash caused by ignoring the return value from one of the CHD \ 
library functions
- FASTFORWARDING: A new Mute When Fast-Forwarding option has been added under \ 
Settings > Audio. When enabled, users can fast forward without having to \ 
listen to distorted audio.
- GLCORE/SLANG: Set filter and wrap mode correctly when intialising shader \ 
textures. Before, the glcore shader driver did not correctly initialise loaded \ 
textures. The texture filtering and wrap mode were forced on texture creation, \ 
but these settings were not recorded - subsequent updates would set garbage \ 
values, that would resolve to linear filtering OFF and wrap mode = \ 
CLAMP_TO_EDGE.
- LOCALIZATION: Update Japanese translation
- LOCALIZATION: Update Spanish translation
- LOCALIZATION: Update Portuguese Brazilian translation
- MAC/IOHIDMANAGER/BUGFIX: Fix for Mayflash N64 adapter. In case last hatswitch \ 
does not match cookie. For the mayflash N64 adapter, I was getting a BAD EXC \ 
ADDRESS (in mac OS 10.13) for this line (tmp was NULL). Retroarch would crash in \ 
the gui if I pressed a button from the DPAD on controller 2. With this change, \ 
it no longer crashes in the gui and still registers the button push.
- MAC/COCOA: Fix mouse input - this brings back two lines of code that have been \ 
removed over time but
appear to be required in order for mouse input to work on macOS
- METAL/BUGFIX: GPU capture on Metal/OSX/NVidia could crash
- METAL/BUGFIX: Taking screenshots could capture black frames. Resulting PNG \ 
screenshots were black.
- METAL/BUGFIX: Corrupted image due to incorrect viewport copy when taking screenshot
- MENU: Prevent font-related segfaults when using extremely small scales/window sizes
- MENU: Fix 'gfx_display_draw_texture_slice()'
- MENU/FONT: Enable correct vertical alignment of text (+ font rendering fixes)
- MENU/RGUI: Enable automatic menu size reduction when running at low \ 
resolutions (down to 256x192)
- MENU/OZONE: Update timedate style options for Last Played sublabel metadata
- MENU/OZONE: Hide 'Menu Color Theme' setting when 'Use preferred system color \ 
theme' is enabled
- MENU/OZONE: Fix thumbnail switching via 'scan' button functionality
- MENU/OZONE: Prevent glitches when rendering Ozone's selection cursor
- MENU/OZONE: Enable proper vertical text alignment + thumbnail display improvements
- MENU/OZONE: Enable second thumbnail/content metadata toggle using RetroPad 'select'
- MENU/OZONE: Refactor footer display
- MENU/OZONE: Hide thumbnail button hints when viewing file browser lists
- MENU/OZONE/INPUT/BUGFIX: Fix undefined behaviour when using touch screen to \ 
change input remaps
- MENU/OZONE/INPUT/BUGFIX: It turns out that Windows reports negative pointer \ 
coordinates when the mouse cursor goes beyond the left hand edge of the \ 
RetroArch window (this doesn't happen on Linux, so I never encountered this \ 
issue before!). As a result, if Ozone is currently not showing the sidebar (menu \ 
depth > 1), moving the cursor off the left edge of the window generates a \ 
false positive 'cursor in sidebar' event - which breaks menu navigation, as \ 
described in #10419. With this PR, we now handle 'cursor in sidebar' status \ 
correctly in all cases
- MENU/OZONE/INPUT/BUGFIX: Pointer input is now correctly disabled when message \ 
boxes are displayed
- MENU/XMB: Fix thumbnail switching via 'scan' button functionality
- ODROID GO ADVANCE: Add DRM HW context driver
- PSL1GHT: Initial port
- PSL1GHT/KEYBOARD: Implement PSL1GHT keyboard
- PLAYLIST/BUGFIX: Improve handling of 'broken' playlists - RetroArch will no \ 
longer segfault when attempting to run content via a playlist entry with missing \ 
path or core path fields.
- PLAYLIST/BUGFIX: Improve handling of 'broken' playlists - when a playlist \ 
entry has either core path and/or core name set to NULL, DETECT or an empty \ 
string, attempting to load content will fallback to the normal 'core selection' \ 
code (currently this happens only if both core path and core name are DETECT - \ 
this is wholly inadequate!)
- PLAYLIST/BUGFIX: RetroArch will no longer segfault when attempting to fetch \ 
content runtime information when core path is NULL
- PLAYLIST/BUGFIX: Core name + runtime info will only be displayed on playlists \ 
and in the Information submenu if both the core path and core name fields are \ 
'valid' (i.e. not NULL or DETECT)
- PLAYLIST/BUGFIX: When handling entries with missing path fields, the menu \ 
sorting order now matches that of the playlist sorting order (at present, \ 
everything goes out of sync when paths are empty). Moreover, entries with \ 
missing path fields can now be 'selected', so users can remove them (currently, \ 
hitting A on such an entry immediately tries - and fails - to load the content, \ 
so the only way to remove the broken entry is via the Playlist Management > \ 
Clean Playlist feature)
- PLAYLIST: Add optional per-playlist alphabetical sorting
- PLAYLIST: Omit whitespace when writing compressed JSON format playlists
- PLAYLIST: Add optional playlist compression
- QNX: Support analog sticks
- SAVESTATES: Add optional save state compression (enabled by default now)
- SRAM: Add optional save (SRAM) file compression
- SCANNER: Prevent redundant playlist entries when handling M3U content
- SCANNER/ANDROID: Fix content scanner being unable to identify certain games \ 
from CHD images (raw data sector/subcode)
- TASKS/BUGFIX: Fix task deadlocks
- TASKS/SCREENSHOT/BUGFIX: Fix heap-use-after-free error when widgets are disabled
- TVOS: Disable overlays for tvOS, fix app icon
- VIDEO/WIDGETS/BUGFIX: The font ascender/descender metrics added in #10375 are \ 
now used to achieve 'pixel perfect' vertical text alignment
- VIDEO/WIDGETS/BUGFIX: Message queue text now uses its own dedicated font. \ 
Previously, a single (larger) font was used for all active widgets, and this was \ 
scaled down for message queue items. This 'squished' the text a little; more \ 
importantly, when using the stb font renderers (on Android. etc.) it caused ugly \ 
artefacts around the edges of glyphs due to pixel interpolation errors. Now that \ 
a correctly sized font is used, the message queue is always rendered cleanly.
- VIDEO/WIDGETS/BUGFIX: Previously, each widget font was 'flushed' \ 
(font_driver_flush()) at least once a frame. This is quite a slow operation. Now \ 
we only flush fonts if they have actually been used.
- VULKAN/BUGFIX: Fix display of statistics text
- UNIX/BUGFIX: Fix overflow when computing total memory on i386

# 1.8.5

- MENU: Fix smooth (vertical) line ticker scroll speed
- MENU: Don't flush on override/remap messages
- MENU/DATETIME: Adds some new timedate styles that follow the DD/MM/YYYY \ 
format, found in several European countries
- MENU/DATETIME: Modifies the existing translation files in order to accommodate \ 
the new options that are now available
- MENU/DATETIME: Reorders the timedate view options based on a decreasing order \ 
of the quantity of information displayed, so that they are more convenient to \ 
switch around and easily categorized

- MENU/OZONE/POINTER: Pointer can be used to select sidebar and entries list items
- MENU/OZONE/POINTER: Both sidebar and entries list can be scrolled by dragging
- MENU/OZONE/POINTER: Clicking/pressing the header or footer produces a 'cancel' \ 
action
- MENU/OZONE/POINTER: Cursor focus follows mouse pointer from sidebar to entries \ 
list (and vice versa)
- MENU/OZONE/POINTER: In entries list, item under cursor is automatically \ 
selected (with some fudging to ensure this doesn't break mouse wheel scrolling)
- MENU/OZONE/POINTER: In sidebar, item under cursor is not automatically \ 
selected (this is too jarring)
- MENU/RGUI: Add 'Flux' theme
- MENU/XMB: New color themes 'Cube Purple', 'Family Red', etc
- NETPLAY/MENU/BUGFIX: Fix Netplay Stateless Mode doesn't save. Affects other \ 
netplay settings which can be overridden by commandline option

running some cores (e.g. VICE) with threaded video enabled
- WIFI/CONNMANCTL: Display more characters from SSID

# 1.8.4
- ANDROID/BUGFIX: Prevent crash when Android device is minimized and you go back \ 
to the app
- 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
- DISK CONTROL: Cycle Disk Tray now becomes Eject Disk or Insert Disk depending \ 
upon current drive state
- DISK CONTROL: Current Disk Index is only shown when the current disk has been \ 
ejected
- 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)
- DISK CONTROL: The Current Disk Index may now be set more easily via a \ 
drop-down list.
- DISK CONTROL: Selecting Eject Disk automatically moves the menu selection to \ 
the Current Disk Index entry
- DISK CONTROL: Selecting an index via the Current Disk Index drop-down list \ 
automatically moves the menu selection back to Insert Disk
- DISK CONTROL: The Disk Control entry sublabels have been changed for greater \ 
clarity
- DISK CONTROL: All of the horrendous notification spam has been removed. \ 
Notifications are now only shown in the event of an error, or when the menu \ 
itself does not provide sufficient visual feedback (note that using hotkeys to \ 
swap disks still produces the old style notifications, since this is typically \ 
only done while content is running - i.e. no menu). The duration of disk-related \ 
info notifications has also been reduced to a more sane level.
- DISK CONTROL: A new Resume content after changing disks option has been added \ 
under Settings > User Interface. When enabled (default setting), content is \ 
resumed automatically after selecting either Insert Disk or Load New Disk (when \ 
disabled, the menu remains open, obviously...)
- DISK CONTROL/BUGFIX: The Disk Control menu now has the correct title
- DISK CONTROL/BUGFIX: Selecting a disk via the Load New Disk file browser no \ 
longer flushes the user back to the top level menu (it now correctly returns to \ 
the Disk Control menu)
- PLAYLISTS: Add 'Clean Playlist' option

# 1.8.3
- ANDROID/BUGFIX: Fix 'Install or Restore Core' regression
- BUGFIX: Ensure core info is always initialised when calling 'drivers_init()'. \ 
This bug could prevent cores from doing content runtime logging
- BUGFIX/MENU: History size can only be set to 1 at a minimum
- BUGFIX/MENU: (XMB/OZONE) Fix 'quick menu' detection. XMB would not display \ 
savestate thumbnails in the quick menu if it was accessed via the main menu
- BUGFIX/CRASH/CORE UPDATER: Fix potential double free error
- BUGFIX/CRASH/OPENGL/WINDOWS: Fix regression in 1.8.2 that would cause GL-based \ 
cores to fail because it would try to erroneously load libGLESv2.dll instead of \ 
OpenGL32.dll (cores affected: VitaQuake 2/3/Dhewm3, possibly more)
- BUGFIX/MENU/DESKTOP UI: Show desktop menu on startup does not launch Qt UI on Linux
- BUGFIX: Entries in the Playlist Thumbnails Updater list were displaying \ 
improper sublabels. I have no idea when this broke... The issue is now fixed

address
- CHEEVOS: Don't reset triggers/leaderboards that failed to load
- CHEEVOS: Don't count unsupported achievements as unlocked

- RASPBERRY PI: Fix BGRA8888 color inversion issues in the menu and elsewhere \ 
with VideoCore GL drivers
- NETPLAY/RELAY: Add Sao Paulo (Brazil) relay server
- NETPLAY/RELAY: Fix the “spectator” bug when using the relay server – \ 
When a player switches into the spectator mode (pressing “i”) while using \ 
the relay server, all players will disconnect.
- NETPLAY/RELAY: Overall stability has improved. Fixed a memory leak that would \ 
cause the relay server to become unresponsive after some time.
- NETPLAY/RELAY: Fixed critical bug that would cause all players to be \ 
disconnected from the relay server if one player was leaving the game. That bug \ 
had been open for one year and we were finally able to fix it.
- THUMBNAIL UPDATER: When waiting for individual thumbnail file http transfers \ 
to complete, the task status checking is more accurate. This uses the same \ 
method as the new core updater - we now wait until the task is 'really' \ 
complete, instead of relying on the (slightly nebulous) 'task finished' state
- VULKAN: Fix font driver 'vulkan_get_message_width()' function
- VIDEO FILTERS: Only use threads when the number exceeds 1. Fixes race \ 
conditions with some CPU filters on Vita

# 1.8.2
- BUG/CRASH/GLSLANG: Fix glslang crashing error - managed to reproduce an issue \ 
which has been plaguing
users for a while, where glslang throws an assert after closing a game (and \ 
starting a new one). This would affect all video drivers that use Slang for \ 
shaders, such as D3D10/11/12/Vulkan/Metal
- CHEEVOS: Display Unofficial and Unsupported achievement states
- CHEEVOS: Pass RetroArch and core versions through User-Agent HTTP header

than 1
- FFMPEG CORE: Hardware accelerated video decoding
- FFMPEG CORE: Implement send/receive encoding API, will allow for hardware \ 
accelerated AMD video encoding
- FFMPEG CORE: The video FIFO can be removed, since we have a ring buffer in its \ 
place. This removes unneeded copy operations and as a positive side improves \ 
overall decoding speed. Makes 8k60p SW and 4k60p HW decoding feasible on many \ 
systems. For now the ring buffer is 32 images deep. This limitation will be \ 
removed, once audio and video decoder have their own packet handling.
- INPUT: Fix 'Analog stick controls menu even if autoconfig disabled'
- INPUT/TURBO: Added alternate Turbo-Mode 'Single Button' - For systems \ 
supporting only a single button, the turbo-button will toggle firing that button \ 
without the need to hold it. When holding the button turbo will be suspended and \ 
resumed when the button is released. Holding the button may have a different \ 
function to just tapping it.

Thumbnails' from playlist menu screen
- MENU/USABILITY: Add Audio Driver setting to Audio -> Output
- MENU/USABILITY: Add Audio -> Resampler settings
- MENU/USABILITY: Add Audio -> Output and Audio -> Synchronization
- 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
- 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)
- 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
- 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
- OPENBSD/POWERPC: Should build now on OpenBSD PowerPC
- 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

- VIDEO LAYOUT: Fixed XML parsing of attributes with spaces, should fix issues \ 
with several video layouts
- 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
- 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

actual navigation tool, rather than a 'top-level-menu' curiosity
- MENU/MATERIALUI: Two new context-sensitive buttons have been added to the \ 
navigation bar - back button and resume button

sets the Menu Scale Factor (this never worked properly with the old DPI \ 
override)
- MENU/MATERIALUI: Material UI no longer leaks memory on 'context reset' (fonts \ 
were previously never free()'d)
- MENU/MATERIALUI: A new Android-style 'system bar' has been added. This shows \

standards
- MENU/MATERIALUI: A number (quite a large number) of layout/spacing issues have \ 
been fixed
- MENU/MATERIALUI: The existing colour theme handling code is not fit for \

few liberties taken for aesthetic purposes.
- OSD: Fix fast forward indicator when not using menu widgets
- PSP1: Remove duplicated FPS indicator on the screen
- VIDEO LAYOUT: Add video layout mame overlay compatibility. Enabled for \ 
Windows/Linux/OSX/iOS/Android/libnx. Only works with GL driver for now, no \ 
glcore yet

# (1.7.9) (v2)
- MENU/MATERIALUI: Change DPI scaling back to original - too many issues with \ 
current implementation, requires a redesign

# (1.7.9)
- AI SERVICE: Image mode is now much faster, it now saves the image in-memory in \ 
PNG format then passes it along to the translation service
- BUGFIX: Touch input - When using an overlay to toggle the quick menu on \

hitting the toggle and instantly resuming content (or performing a save state) \ 
is fixed
- BUGFIX: Networking - RetroArch crashed when pressing left while Relay Server \ 
Location entry was selected
- BUGFIX: Networking - fix memory leak that could happen at exit after a network
operation had run
- CHEEVOS: Improve handling of line endings when calculating CD hashes for \ 
retroachievements

highlighted when performing standard up/down 'flick' scrolling through lists \ 
(items are only highlighted when you keep the pointer still for > 200 ms)
- MENU/MATERIALUI: Bugfix - The display no longer 'jerks' for one frame when \ 
navigating backwards through lists
- MENU/MATERIALUI: Bugfix - The Material UI scaling factor is now based upon the \ 
device-reported screen DPI value (previously it relied upon a hard-coded magic \ 
number, which was never correct)

resetting back to the first core option item each time)
- MENU: Add mouse/touchscreen gesture support
- MENU: Add option to delete playlists (Settings > Playlists > Playlist \ 
Management)
