Full Changelog: 4.3.0...4.4.0

4.3.0

• Add support for acpi-als iio (#79)
• Fix Vulkan-related issues with image allocation (#82)
• Update v4l dependency to be compatible with clang 16 (#75)

4.2.0

Add support for system-level config in /etc/xdg/wluma/ (#66)

4.1.2

Use linked Vulkan and Wayland libs

• Vulkan requires ICD loader, and users have to install vulkan driver if they need to use capturer=wlroots (the only thing that requires Vulkan today)
• Wayland uses dlopen, so the app will launch fine and only crash in runtime on non-wayland systems if you try to use capturer=wlroots (the only thing that requires Wayland today)

4.1.1

• Do not initialize Vulkan if it's not going to be used
• Fix occasional crash with webcam als

4.1.0

• reduce CPU usage in backlight outputs using inotify (#33)
• fix: ddcutil support for 2+ external screens (#36)

Note for packagers: make docs will convert README.md into a man-page, which make install now installs.

4.0.0

• Support external GPUs (#30)
• Support keyboards backlight (#26)
• More robust discovery of external displays

Config format has changed:

• Entire [frame] section is gone, capturer is moved under each output (allowing more fine-grained control), processor is removed (as we only have Vulkan anyway, and it's unlikely to change).

3.0.0

• New webcam-based ALS simulation (#13)
• Support for external monitors using DDC I2C (#15)
• Support several outputs at the same time (#17) (#20)
• New prediction algorithm (works only within current ALS profile (also a new thing)), old data is not compatible

2.0.1

• Fix ALS detection
• Attach pre-compiled release artifacts for Linux

2.0.0

• Rewrite everything in Rust 🦀
• Better algorithm to predict the best brightness value 💪
• Async non-blocking smooth brightness value adjustment 🚀
• Built-in time-based ALS emulator 🕥
