No keyboard commands such as q for quit or r for reload work

This is because I changed the default output mode from ncurses to noncurses. Noncurses does not support keyboard input. I didn't really think anyone was using the keyboard input, guess I was wrong.

Noncurses did use to have keyboard input, but it was causing some issues so I disabled it. I will look into reimplementing it. If I cant, I will simply revert to using ncurses as default.

Until then simply change output mode to ncurses if you want keyboard. Remember you can always use ctrl+c for exit and

pkill -USR1 cava

To reload

@n6v26r, can you check with the latest commit that it works as expected?

n6v26r commented 7 months ago

Yep. Working just fine now. Wasn't a big issue anyway.
