On Windows, the packaged app serves the renderer from http://127.0.0.1:PORT,
which causes Chromium to block file:// URLs in <video> elements — even with
webSecurity disabled. This affects all users running the packaged build.
Add a local media HTTP server (random port) that streams approved video files
with range request support for seeking. The renderer now resolves video paths
through this server instead of using file:// URLs directly.
- electron/mediaServer.ts: HTTP server with path validation against
approvedLocalReadPaths and Content-Range support
- IPC handler 'get-local-media-url' converts file paths to HTTP URLs
- resolveVideoUrl() in renderer falls back to file:// if server unavailable
- Improved <video> onError to log actual MediaError details
Fixes#244
On macOS versions before Sonoma (14.0), SCStreamConfiguration does not
support the captureMicrophone/microphoneCaptureDeviceID selectors. The
native helper was throwing a fatal error, blocking recording entirely
when microphone was enabled.
Now the Swift helper logs MICROPHONE_CAPTURE_UNAVAILABLE and continues
capture without microphone. The Node handler detects this signal and
returns microphoneFallbackRequired to the renderer, which starts a
browser-side MediaRecorder capturing the mic via getUserMedia. On stop,
the audio blob is saved as a .mic.webm sidecar alongside the native
recording, where the existing companion audio detection picks it up.
Fixes: 'Native microphone capture is unavailable on this macOS/Xcode
runtime' error on older macOS versions.
- Extension loader with manifest validation, ID sanitization, and path traversal protection
- Permission-gated runtime API (render, cursor, audio, timeline, ui, assets, export)
- Extension host with lifecycle management (activate/deactivate)
- Marketplace client for browsing, downloading, and installing extensions
- Extension Manager UI panel with enable/disable/uninstall
- IPC bridge for extension discovery, management, and marketplace operations
- Proxy guard on window.electronAPI to block extension access to privileged IPC
- Zip-slip protection via post-extraction directory traversal validation
- Safe PowerShell invocation for Windows zip extraction (no string interpolation)
- File URL resolution with path escape prevention
- Set setIgnoreMouseEvents(true, {forward: true}) on HUD overlay window
so transparent areas pass clicks to apps behind
- Add hud-overlay-set-ignore-mouse IPC to toggle mouse events
- Re-enable mouse events on mouseenter over visible HUD content,
disable again on mouseleave
- Add UpdateStatusSummary type and getUpdateStatusSummary() for exposing
updater state to renderer processes
- Add writeUpdaterLog() for persistent updater diagnostics
- Add configureUpdateFeed() for feed URL configuration
- Wire up get-update-status-summary and check-for-app-updates IPC handlers
- Add primaryAction field to UpdateToastState for actionable toast buttons
- Add checking-for-update event handler with status tracking
- Surface automatic check errors via toast when appropriate
- Add CGPreflightScreenCaptureAccess pre-check in Swift helper
- Add microphone TCC pre-flight when mic capture is requested
- Warm up TCC via desktopCapturer.getSources before spawning helper
- Request mic access from Electron before helper spawn
- Remove unreliable systemPreferences.getMediaAccessStatus pre-checks
- Add camera entitlements to plist files for webcam support
- Guard getScreen() calls behind app.isReady()
- Make tray icons lazy to avoid early screen access
- Suppress duplicate permission error alerts in renderer
Add IPC handler to expose app.getVersion() to the renderer and
display it in the More dropdown menu. Users can now verify which
version they're running.

Push selected-source changes from Electron to the launch window instead of polling every 500ms, reducing constant renderer and IPC churn. Also restore the TimelineEditor audio path narrowing fix so the current tree stays type-safe.
Add Electron IPC handlers and preload wiring for Whisper caption generation, small-model download management, and safer project media source resolution. Update native macOS capture helpers to mux separate system and microphone audio outputs before finalizing recordings.
- language support
- webcame pause/resume sync
- native recording pause
- cancel (clears chunks and stops both recoders and webcame discarded on native cancel
- full lifecycle with webcame - pause - resume - stop keeps webcame in sync throughout
- Add pause, resume, and cancel recording controls with elapsed timer
- Move folder, language, and system audio into three-dots overflow menu with source highlight
wave
Keep the recording HUD visible on screen without burning it into captures, and make cursor sway match cursor motion while preserving the old 2x strength at the new 1x slider position.
- Use getRecordingsDir() instead of hardcoded RECORDINGS_DIR
- Fix stop order: video first, then audio save, then mux via new
mux-wgc-recording IPC
- Explicitly stop MediaStream tracks for audio resource cleanup
- Add native WASAPI audio capture (system loopback + mic) in C++ process
for sample-accurate sync; browser audio APIs crash with WGC
- Add window capture support (CreateForWindow) with window: source prefix
- Kill WGC capture process on app before-quit
- Add even-dimension guard in MFEncoder
- Fix ffmpeg asar path backslash handling on Windows
- Remove dead browser-side WGC audio code (storeWgcAudio IPC,
ScriptProcessorNode refs, stopWgcAudioCapture)
Uses Windows.Graphics.Capture to record the screen without the OS cursor
or the yellow capture border. Falls back to Electron capture on older Windows
or when the helper exe isn't available.
- Move recordings path control into HUD menu bar and refine separators/layout
- Show underlined Path: /folder/ label next to Record controls
- Add native folder picker to change recordings location
- Persist selected recordings directory and route recording/project defaults through it
