How Compare Two Playlists gets updated

Floodtide's own signed catalog lists where Compare Two Playlists's developer publishes each release, and Floodtide reads that source directly to learn which version is current. When yours is behind, the row appears under Updates with the version that is out.

  • The developer's own build is downloaded, with real progress.
  • It is checked against a checksum where the source publishes one, otherwise against the developer signature of the copy already installed, and Gatekeeper has to accept it before anything is replaced.
  • Compare Two Playlists is asked to quit politely if it is open, and never forced.
