  • Adds a waveform visualization plugin for the currently playing track.
  • Qt only.
  • Uses libav to extract and generate waveform peak data.
  • Caches generated waveform data in AudPath::UserDir/waveform_cache to avoid repeated processing.
  • Supports mouse-based seeking directly from the waveform display.

Notes:

  • The UI is still fairly rough and open to iteration; suggestions and changes are expected.
  • Testing has been fairly limited so far (only Arch Linux); additional testing and feedback would be appreciated.
  • May add zoom functionality in a future update.

Added coloring for each band, low -> red, mid -> green, high -> blue. Quiet bands are faintly visible.
