- The main features of v5 are:

- Linux x64 and arm64 builds
- Docker x64 and arm64 builds
- System aware storage locations for your data (except for the portable versions on Windows/Linux)
- Completely rebuilt launcher which embeds the Java runtime now (no more unnecessary sub-processes)
- Episode group handling
- and much more
- Since v5 this is a great step into the future of tinyMediaManager, you can not inline upgrade your v4 installation to v5.
