Highlights
Video Transcription with Local Whisper
- Video transcript player: Archive a YouTube or TikTok video, and the transcript appears as a synced, scrollable panel alongside the embedded video with playback controls.
- Transcription suggestion banner: When a local video is detected in your note, a banner prompts you to transcribe it using your local Whisper installation (faster-whisper / whisper.cpp / openai-whisper) with model selection and time estimates.
- Native closed captions (CC): Local videos now support TextTrack-based captions with a CC toggle button, synced to the Whisper transcript.
- Multilingual transcript translation: Translate transcripts into other languages and switch between them via pill-style language tabs.
Batch Download & Transcription
- Batch processing: Scan your archive folder and batch-download + transcribe all eligible videos with a single command. Supports pause, resume, and cancel with persistent progress tracking across plugin reloads.
- Improved batch notice UI: Progress bar with status-aware colors, icon+label buttons with proper spacing, and auto-dismiss on completion.
Archive Progress Banner (replaces Preliminary Document)
- New loading UX: Instead of creating a placeholder document during archiving, a non-intrusive progress banner now appears at the top of the timeline showing real-time status for each job (queued, archiving, retrying, completed, failed).
- Dismiss & retry: Every banner state has a dismiss (X) button; failed jobs show a retry button. Dismissed jobs are properly cleaned up and won't reappear on reload.
