DESCRIPTION

La dernière version de VoxDrop est en pièce jointe ci-dessous.

The latest version of VoxDrop for macOS is attached below!

-------------------

Changelog

## [1.1.1] - 2026-07-03

New

- Apple on-device transcription engine by default on macOS 26+ (Parakeet fallback)

- Silero VAD v5 (improved voice activity detection)

- Single function key (F1–F20) usable as a modifier-less hotkey

Fixes

- Audio: VAD now runs on a mono downmix (no more truncation with multi-channel mics)

- Audio: channel-aware downmix (no longer averages the mic with a silent channel)

- Audio: VAD end-trim no longer cuts the last words of a dictation

- Audio: an all-silent capture now surfaces a mic error instead of being silently skipped

- Audio: cancelled recordings no longer convert or leak a temp WAV

- Post-processing: translation/rewrite are time-bounded (a wedged worker can't freeze hotkeys)

- Config: atomic writes (config/history/substitutions) + size-guard on oversized files

- Security/robustness: zip-slip on the Cohere model, WAV unwrap panic, silent empty translation

- Paste: clipboard is restored even when Cmd+V fails, without clobbering a fresh copy

- UI: the recording overlay no longer hides behind a bottom Dock

- Hotkey: ghost pressed-keys, poisoned locks, mask-0 release path + Secure Input detection

- Build: weak-link FoundationModels/Speech so the app runs on macOS 14+

- Build: silence the CFRelease clashing-extern-declarations warning

Dependencies

- transcribe-rs 0.3.8 → 0.3.11 (Parakeet/Canary/CoreML fixes)

## [1.1.0] - 2026-06-05

Added

- *Apple on-device speech engine* (macOS 26 Speech framework): instant,

multilingual, fully on-device, nothing to download (0 MB).

- *Apple Intelligence (Foundation Models)* as an on-device reformulation /

translation provider (macOS 26+), alongside TranslateGemma.

- Audio *and video* file transcription via drag & drop (transcribes the

audio track of video files).

- *Speaker diarization* (who-spoke-when) for recordings.

- Optional, language-aware *filler-word removal* ("euh", "hum"…).

- Opt-in *fuzzy vocabulary correction* for substitutions (phonetic + n-gram).

- Dedicated *Sortie (Output)* tab.

- Speech-model *preload + warm-up* on record-start for a faster first dictation.

- Auto-switch to a designated mic in *clamshell mode* (lid closed + external display).

- Actionable microphone-failure messages (permission / no device / no audio).

- Localized model-dropdown labels across the 13 UI languages.

- On-demand download + SHA-256 verification + ad-hoc signing of the Cohere /

diarization worker assets (smaller base download).

- Idle unload of the speech model after a configurable timeout (default 5 min).

Changed

- Engine lineup is now Parakeet v3 + Whisper (plus Apple, Canary, Cohere).

- Existing configs using Voxtral or Qwen3-ASR auto-migrate to Parakeet on launch.

- License / sign-in moved to the unified `licence.korben.info` server.

Fixed

- No stray leading space at the start of a dictation (including non-breaking /

Unicode trailing spaces, e.g. in terminals).

- The recurring UI scrollbar: the window now sizes to the active tab's content.

- Reformulation / translation hotkeys no longer steal focus to VoxDrop instead

of starting recording.

- Speaker labels now appear in diarization output.

- Apple Intelligence reformulates in the user's language and no longer answers

the dictated text like a chatbot.

- Clipboard paste for text longer than 20 characters (full NSPasteboard

snapshot / restore).

- Broad stability, security and performance hardening (ASR-panic isolation,

poison-recovering locks, band-limited resampling, and more).

Removed

- Qwen3-ASR and Voxtral STT engines (underperforming on speed, quality, size,

and build complexity).

- Real-time Live Mode (was Qwen3-ASR only).

- The short-lived opt-in streaming / partial-transcription feature.

## [1.0.2] - 2026-02-07

Added

- Voxtral STT engine (voxtral.c) for high-quality French transcription

- Localhost OAuth server replacing fragile deep-link flow for license activation

- Internationalized tray menu (FR/EN)

- Model reload state tracking with hotkey lock during reload

Fixed

- GGML crash fix: llama-cpp-2 isolated in `translator-worker` subprocess to eliminate symbol conflicts with whisper-rs (SIGABRT in `ggml_metal_rsets_free`)

- whisper-rs made a mandatory dependency instead of optional feature

- Strict hotkey matching ignores synthetic key events from enigo paste

Changed

- `lib.rs` refactored into focused modules (`commands/`, `recording.rs`, `sound.rs`)

- Post-processing logic extracted and optimized

- Audio initialization and media pause optimized

- Release profile: LTO enabled, binary stripped, size-optimized

Security

- Config, history and substitution files set to `0600` permissions on Unix

- Parakeet model tarball extraction protected against zip-slip path traversal

- `escapeHtml` now also escapes single quotes

- API: HSTS header added, rate limiting fail-closed, JS injection fixed in OAuth callback

- Cloudflare IP spoofing documented, debug mode warning added
