Version 2.5.0
Media Reliability & System Health
This update focuses on media reliability with missing asset detection and introduces system health checks for Remotion and DeepFilterNet engines on macOS.
This release enhances the video editing experience on macOS by focusing on project reliability and system health. We’ve introduced robust checks to ensure your media assets are always accounted for and that your rendering engines are ready for action.
✨ Features
- Missing Media Detection: We’ve added a robust validation layer when opening projects to detect and help you resolve missing image overlays. This prevents unexpected playback and export errors, ensuring your captioning workflow remains uninterrupted.
- Export Reliability: Improved error handling during the export process now provides detailed logs and a more intuitive reporting UI. We’ve also added dynamic resolution filtering based on your project’s aspect ratio to ensure optimal output.
- System Health Checks:
- Remotion Engine: A new dedicated status card and backend check allow you to verify the readiness of the Remotion rendering engine instantly.
- DeepFilterNet: We’ve integrated a health check for the DeepFilterNet audio enhancement engine, ensuring your silence removal and noise reduction tools are always functional.
- Third-Party Notices: We’ve expanded our credits page to include categorized licenses, providing more transparency and detailed information on the open-source tools that power Velocaption.
🐛 Fixes
- Autosave Loop: Resolved a bug where the autosave feature would trigger repeatedly during the export phase, caused by progress updates incorrectly marking the project as modified.
- UI Overflow: Fixed several text overflow issues and improved path handling in dialog windows for a cleaner interface.
♻️ Refactoring
- Dependency Management: We’ve redesigned the system update and dependency pages for FFmpeg and Node.js, providing a more consistent and clear UI for managing your environment.
- Project Architecture: Significant improvements have been made to the internal state management for export settings and asset verification.
