# Version 1.3 Patch Notes
This update focuses on improving audio playback, making the addon more reliable, adding new quality-of-life features, and significantly improving playlist generation.
##

Improved Audio Playback
* Music now continues playing seamlessly through loading screens and zone changes.
* Zone music no longer interrupts your playlists while the jukebox is playing.
* Improved track switching to eliminate audio glitches and overlapping songs.
* Audio is restored correctly when stopping playback or logging out.
* Better overall playback stability and reliability.

##

New Live Playback Timer
A live timer has been added to both the main window and the Mini Player.
The timer displays:
* Current playback time
* Total track length

##

Master Volume Control
A new volume slider has been added to the main window.
You can now:
* Adjust the jukebox volume directly from the addon

Resetting the addon now restores the volume to 100%.

Improved Reset Button
The Reset button has been completely reworked.
It now:
* Restores all game audio if anything became muted
* Stops any currently playing music
* Resets the volume
* Re-centers the main window

* Resets and shows the Mini Player
This should resolve issues where audio could remain disabled after resetting.
