⚡ Archive Performance Overhaul
- Folded file-trees by default: In the Archive tab, creator and post folders are now folded by default. Opening the Archive tab with 10,000 to 100,000+ downloaded files is now instantaneous with no freezing or stuttering.
- Instant search expansion: Searching in the Archive tab automatically opens all matching creators and posts, and cleanly folds them back when you clear your search.
- On-demand loading: Folder contents are now loaded only when expanded, keeping the app snappy and keeping memory usage ultra-light.
🛡️ Download Integrity & Hash Verification
- False SHA-256 mismatch warnings fixed: Integrity verification now checks the raw downloaded file before any optional conversion or tagging, so verified files will no longer display false mismatch warnings.
- Dual hash algorithm support: The downloader now reliably recognizes both SHA-256 and MD5 integrity hashes across all supported platforms and download mirrors.
- Video files protected: Videos (
.mp4) are now strictly excluded from audio tagging, ensuring video files remain untouched. - Audio tagging disabled by default: Audio tagging is now opt-in across the application and can be enabled whenever you want automatic artist and title tags added to your music tracks.
