Final testing for 4.5.2
Hi everyone,
We're almost ready to release our 4.5.2 patch for MuseScore Studio, which includes playback support for partial ties at repeats and jumps.
We'll be continuing our QA process over the next few days, during which we'd be grateful for your help with testing the following areas:
- Playback of partial ties at repeats and jumps
- Also check playback of arpeggio lines and tremolos, as these may have been impacted
- Docking and undocking of panels like the Percussion panel
- We want to confirm this is working for people upgrading from a pre-4.5 release
- General performance and stability
- If you experience any crashes or unresponsiveness in the app, please let us know!
To help test, please download the most recent 4.5.2 nightly build for your operating system. You can run it alongside your current stable version of MuseScore Studio.
If you run into any problems, please:
- Check for existing issues on GitHub.
- If you find a matching issue, upvote it 👍. Only comment if you have something meaningful to add.
- For new issues, provide a short, meaningful title that describes the specific problem.
- Playback bugs: create a minimum reproducible example and upload a screen recording (with audio) to demonstrate it.
- Engraving bugs: attach a problem score and screenshots.
- Keep comments and descriptions short.
- Use the <detail> tag to hide supplementary info, like build logs.
Thanks for your support!
The MuseScore Studio Team

You instruct the user to "upload a screen recording (with audio)". Would be good to suggest applications to do this. I certainly don't know what software to use to create a screen recording like this.
Something along the lines of "For Windows users, Software U and Software V are free and have been used successfully in the past. For Mac users, Software W and Software X are the same. For Linux users, Software Y and Software Z."

I use Bandicam on Windows. It is simple but does the job.
Others use OBS which is more flexible but considerably more complicated (think GIMP level of complexity).
Non-Home versions of windows have some sort of built in video capture I understand. I have a Home version so can't comment further.

WIndows 11 supports video via the Snipping tool - and I'm pretty sure that applies to Home editions. At least this link doesn't say otherwise.
macOS also has a built-in facility. Linux distributions vary in what they include - some probably incllude video recording software, others probably don't.

Or use VLC. (Media/Open Capture Device/Desktop)
GPL and cross platform.

See for example https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/learning-center/how-to-record-s…. No audio, but that's not usually needed for bug reporting. And if you need that, there is the Game Bar, also available for Home editions. Plus a large selection third party solutions found in a web search, including browser-based ones that are cross-platform and require no installation. I often use gifcap.dev for creating GIF's - also no sound, but needed only for playback bugs.

Hello everyone
It would be great if this version were released as soon as possible. All kinds of crashes caused by simple actions like copying or moving elements are very frustrating when working on a large project.
The instability of this version is very high.
Thank you for your work.

" All kinds of crashes caused by simple actions like copying or moving elements are very frustrating when working on a large project."
Well, which ones, crashes and simple actions? Could you be more explicit, one post per problem. As far as I can see on your message history (https://musescore.org/en/user/3642280), you haven't reported any, either on this forum or on Github. Don't wait for us to do it for you. As soon as a problem arises, report it to this section of the forum, to check whether it's already known or not, whether it's been filed on Github or not, and so on, here: https://musescore.org/en/forum/6
Unfortunately, I think it's a bit late, as 4.5.2 is about to be released. In the "Done" category, the column on the far right, there are a few reported crashes: https://github.com/orgs/musescore/projects/88
Are these the ones you encountered or not?
