 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [1.2.0] - 2026-06-02
+
 ### Added
 
-- Demo GIF to README showing persistent player across page navigation
-- Scripts for capturing and generating demo GIF (`scripts/capture-demo.mjs`, `scripts/make-gif.py`)
-- Favicon and browser assets (SVG, ICO, PNG sizes, Apple touch icon, Android Chrome icons, webmanifest)
-- Theme-color meta tags for light and dark color schemes
-- `CHANGELOG.md` with Keep a Changelog format
+- Bidirectional real-time sync of mute, volume, playback rate, and chapter seek between inline player and footer via new `podcast-state-change` event (#25, #28)
+- `podcast-seek` event dispatched from skip (rewind/forward) and chapter-click buttons so footer tracks all position changes
+- Updated demo GIF showing new sync features (8 frames, SVG icons, volume/speed sync)
 
 ### Changed
 
-- Replaced emoji with Feather/Lucide SVG icons in inline player skip and mute buttons
+- Updated demo capture script (`scripts/capture-demo.mjs`) for new site structure, port 1311, and `/wavecast/` subpath
+- Updated GIF generation script (`scripts/make-gif.py`) with new captions matching updated demo flow
 
-## [1.1.0] - 2026-05-31
+### Fixed
 
-### Changed
+- Speed change on inline player no longer accidentally mutes footer audio (volume/mute defaults now read from UI rather than silenced `<audio>` when footer is active)
+- Double-audio prevention: inline `_setVolume`, `_toggleMute`, `_cycleRate`, and keyboard volume handlers now skip modifying the inline `<audio>` when a footer is producing audible output
+- Event echo loop prevented with `_suppressSync` guard flag on both inline player and footer
 
-- Updated theme.toml tags for Hugo theme gallery: `podcast`, `radio`, `music`, `responsive`, `dark`, `dark mode`
