v1.2.0

Critical Bug Fix: Key Detection on Linux Systems

This release fixes a critical bug that caused incorrect key detection on systems using libavformat 60 (FFmpeg 6.x), including:

• Ubuntu 24.04
• Debian stable
• Other Linux distributions with FFmpeg 6.x

The Bug

The CLI was incorrectly passing a bitmask value (channel_layout) instead of the actual channel count (channels) to libkeyfinder when processing audio on these systems. This caused the audio data to be misinterpreted, resulting in completely wrong key detection.

Example: A track in C major would be detected as E minor.

Technical Details

See the commit message for full technical explanation of how channel_layout vs channels caused the bug.
