 All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
 
+## 2.5.9 - 2026-08-05
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Screen playlist refreshes now wait until the next slide transition before applying a pending update, so one-slide playlists do not swap immediately during a refresh.
+- Playlist rows now show the mute control for any playable media region, including RTMP slides, instead of only video regions.
+
+## 2.5.8 - 2026-08-05
+
+### Fixed
+
+- MariaDB migrations now retry alternate foreign-key constraint names when screen-to-player constraint creation reports a duplicate-key error.
+
+## 2.5.7 - 2026-08-05
+
+### Fixed
+
+- QR template backgrounds now use a single solid color only, and the editor no longer exposes a background gradient mode.
+
 ## 2.5.6 - 2026-08-05
 
 ### Added
