Nuclear requires ongoing maintenance to keep everything working. This version has not been maintained for a while, so expect things to be broken.
We have started a rewrite here: https://github.com/NuclearPlayer/nuclear-xrd
This new version will have several advantages
- It will fix the constant need to update to keep everything working. Auto-update will be built-in for both Nuclear, and its plugins
- Theming support
- A powerful plugin system
- Better tools for plugin developers
- Support for more metadata and streaming providers.
Stay tuned for updates!

Readme translations:

It’s also focusing more on audio. Imagine Spotify which you don’t have to pay for and with a bigger library.
See this.
