Releases
Every Decaud for Mac release: what changed, when, and the SHA-256 checksum of its installer.
Decaud.dmg always gets you the current version, and recent
releases keep their own download links below. Every checksum stays listed forever: if you
downloaded Decaud earlier and a newer version has since shipped, you can still verify the copy
you have. In Terminal, run
shasum -a 256 ~/Downloads/Decaud.dmg
and the output must match your version's checksum, byte for byte.
A machine-readable list lives at releases.json.

August 11, 2026 Current- AirPlay to Apple TV: cast to an Apple TV running tvOS 27 after setting an AirPlay password on the TV
- Control playback from the receiver: play, pause, and next track from an Apple TV remote, HomePod, or Siri
- Now playing on the receiver: title, artist, album, and artwork follow the track on Apple TV, HomePod, and Sonos
- HomePod stereo pairs appear as one destination, the way they do in Apple Music, and both speakers play
- Safer DSD playback through clearly labeled, high-quality PCM conversion in the App Store edition; native DoP remains available in this Direct edition
- Fixes for Next immediately after launch, first-cast connection reliability, and playback startup under load
