Happy new year and thanks to everybody for support during 2018!
I want bring more light on what's going on and what can you expect in near future. First of all I'm still working on theming rework, which is blocking a lot of other future improvements. It's a lot of refactoring throughout the whole application and it's taking longer then expected. Current plan is to have this finished sometime in February. After that I will open new polls and prepare new roadmap based on your votes.

Hi everyone!
I wanted to post an update about what's going on with Playnite's development. I'm currently finishing work on new version 4.4, which should release later this week. The focus is on metadata download improvements plus some other fixes and improvements.
In one of the previous posts I described roadma...

Thanks everyone for contributing, we reached the first goal! I can now fully cover all technical costs running Playnite. I'm planning to launch forums and extensions gallery soon and your contributions will help running it.
The next goal is quite more ambitious and if we reach it I'll be able to work on Playnite full time.
I'm also still rethinking Patreon rewards and what rewards I could add (possibly other reward tiers). If you have some suggestions feel free to comment under this post...

Good news everyone (hopefully)! I'll be changing how new Playnite versions are being developed and released. This is primarily based on how development on 3.0 and 4.0 progressed (not as well as I imagined). I identified theses issue about how things are done currently, basically all come from the fact that releases are too big:
I've enabled Discord integration to Playnites Discrod server: https://discord.gg/hSFvmN6
If you connect your Discord account with Patreon account you'll get different colored name on our server :)
2018-05-14 15:22:12 +0000 UTC View PostYou can download it here if auto update doesn't install it automatically: https://github.com/JosefNemec/Playnite/releases/tag/4.2
New version 4.1 is available. It should automatically download next time you start Playnite. If doesn't then you can download update manually from GitHub: https://github.com/JosefNemec/Playnite/releases/tag/4.1
Also Playnite 4 is now publicly available to everyone, so tell you friends, family, tell everyone :)
2018-04-27 15:04:30 +0000 UTC View PostIt's finally here. Thanks for the patience, it took way longer then I anticipated. I need to mention one thing and that's the fullscreen mode. It's not in the state that I want. It's currently feature limited primarily because themming support needs to be completely rewritten (check my previous post) and it was not worth writing all the features in old system and then redoing them. I will improve it with one of the 4.x versions which is going to include new themming.
You need to download and r...
2018-04-16 16:39:28 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone. I want to share the status of 4.0 with you. All features are almost complete and implemented with exception of Fullscreen mode and plugin support. Plugin support is almost finished and I don't expect any issues putting it into production ready state. Sadly I can't say the same about Fullscreen mode. I've come across serious issues while developing it, primarily because current theming system is poorly designed to support it. What it means for 4.0 is that initial version of Fullscree...
2018-04-03 16:06:29 +0000 UTC View PostFirst of all, I'm sorry about not posting any updates in a while. 4.0 development is not going as fast as a would like to, primarily because I was busy with other work related projects. I also underestimated complexity of some of the features going into 4.0 and I don't want to leave then out as I did in 3.0, so the development will take more time then I originally thought it would.
I will have more time to work on Playnite in March and new plan is to release 4.0 sometime in March as well (prob...
2018-02-28 15:26:13 +0000 UTC View PostBacklog of features and bug fixes for next major version is ready and available at GitHub: https://github.com/JosefNemec/Playnite/projects/5
The major features are support for "fullscreen" mode and plugin/scripting support.
Current plan is to have this version ready for early Patreon release by the end of the month.
2018-01-15 14:15:42 +0000 UTC View PostHi guys,
voting form for 4.0 release is ready. You can vote for features you would like to see in next version. There are 3 categories based on complexity of the feature and only set number of features from each group will make it into release. You can select up to 3 features (5 for the last group) from each group. The list is already curated based on general feedback from Playnite users in case if you wonder why some features from GitHub are on included.
The number in brackets for each ...

Thanks everybody that contributes to the project!
2018-01-05 14:42:01 +0000 UTC View PostI'll be putting potential 4.0 roadmap together in the beginning of January. If you are 5$+ contributor you'll be able to influence it by voting for you're favorite features when the time comes.
And remember that you can always request new features at GitHub: https://github.com/JosefNemec/Playnite/issues
