MuseScore Studio 4.7.7 is a maintenance patch after 4.7.6's score-conversion feature.

music-notationdesktop-apponline-servicesopen-source
◆Current state
MuseScore Studio 4.7.7, released November 12, updates translations, supports FFmpeg 9, makes small instrument improvements and fixes bugs and crashes. The 4.7 line's only feature patch remains 4.7.6 in October, which added PDF, audio and YouTube-to-score conversion through MuseScore.com.
◆Where it's heading
The 4.7 line is in steady maintenance, with patches every few weeks since May. The one added workflow sends users to MuseScore.com, so the online service is where new capability shows up while the desktop app mostly gets stability work.
◆Prediction
Expect further 4.7.x fix patches; the entries give no sign yet of when a 4.8 line starts.
