steipete/summarize v0.17.2

on GitHub

Features

• CLI media: allow --diarize and speaker identification for local and direct audio/video inputs, including MP3 and MP4, instead of limiting speaker-labelled transcription to YouTube.
• YouTube transcripts: fall back to Android VR direct audio resolution and configured transcription when yt-dlp is missing or fails, while preserving explicit --youtube yt-dlp and diarization requirements.
• Chrome extension: transcribe captionless YouTube videos without the daemon using active-player/watch-page or Android VR direct audio, captured SABR fallback, MediaBunny/WebCodecs, and browser-cached multilingual Whisper Tiny.
• Chrome extension: transcribe fetchable direct and embedded media without the daemon using ranged MediaBunny/WebCodecs decoding, bounded audio chunks, and an idle-evictable browser Whisper runtime.

Fixes

• Chrome extension: cancel pending summary starts when switching tabs and recover from stalled WebGPU Whisper initialization with a bounded CPU fallback.
• CLI: use the Codex runtime default model instead of pinning auto fallback to an obsolete model.
• Daemon: defer cache shutdown until in-flight summary work drains, preventing late writes through finalized SQLite statements.
• Dependencies: replace Ora, tslog, and the FAL SDK with focused local implementations while retaining spinner, daemon logging, retry, multipart upload, and FAL transcription behavior.
• Chrome extension: replace the bundled browser FFmpeg WebAssembly runtime with MediaBunny and native WebCodecs, adding AV1 frame extraction while reducing the packaged extension size.
• Chrome extension: avoid throttled offscreen canvas blob callbacks so MediaBunny slide JPEGs encode in milliseconds instead of roughly one second per frame.
• YouTube media: prefer direct audio already exposed by the active player or watch page before requesting Android VR media, with resolver and browser decoder diagnostics in extension logs.
• Extension tests: load the Firefox build through Mozilla web-ext in CI and run daily live YouTube resolver plus daemonless Chrome transcription checks.
