havMediaControls v1.3.2.0 Released

September 03, 2026 · · 1 min read

I recently bought some digital albums delivered as WAV files. The files contained embedded cover art, but havMediaControls couldn't retrieve it from Windows when using the player-remote fallback. After reading Microsoft's Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF) documentation and the ID3v2.3 specification, particularly section 4.15, "Attached picture," I added support for reading the embedded ID3 artwork directly from WAV files.

It was probably more work than it was worth, but today I'm releasing version 1.3.2.0 of havMediaControls with the fix.

Changelog (v1.3.2.0)
  • Fixed loading embedded cover art from WAV files when using the player-remote fallback
