🎉 SignalRGB Desktop Wallpaper v1.0 is out
First stable release. What it does: your live SignalRGB colours shine through transparent regions of your desktop wallpaper — so the background of your screen finally matches the lighting around it instead of clashing with it.
🌈 Live glow via the SignalRGB plugin (60 fps, < 1 % CPU)
🖥️ Up to 4 monitors, each independent or mirrored
✨ Twelve ambient effects — snow, rain, sparks, aurora, constellation, fireflies, plasma, vortex, bubbles, matrix, starfield, lightning (all optionally tinted from the live glow colour)
🛠️ In-browser Builder with one-click Auto-cut for bright regions, brushes, pattern fills, monitor-wall workflow
🎵 Now-playing widget via Windows SMTC + a whole-screen audio-reactive glow layer
📊 Hardware-sensor widgets via LibreHardwareMonitor (CPU / GPU temps, fan RPMs, drive temps, power)
⌨️ Global preset hotkeys, wallpaper auto-cycle, mirror mode, backup / restore
🌍 DE / EN UI, auto-detected from your Windows locale
