What's new in 0.8.0

New

  • Standalone command-line downloads on Linux and macOS: veloctl get <url> now uses the portable download engine without requiring the Windows desktop app. Release archives cover Intel/AMD 64-bit and ARM64, including Apple Silicon.
  • Linux and macOS downloads check free disk space, use standard proxy environment variables and cancel external video tools together with their child processes.
  • veloctl version reports the installed version. CLI downloads now recognize supported video page URLs as well as files, HLS and DASH.

Verification and scope

  • CI runs engine and CLI tests natively on Linux, macOS and Windows, including an actual command-line download against a local server. Linux and macOS release archives include checksums.
  • This is the command-line portability milestone. Linux desktop windows, browser registration and AppImage/.deb packages are next; remote-control commands still require a running desktop app. macOS binaries are unsigned and not notarized.
  • yt-dlp, ffmpeg and Deno remain separate optional dependencies for video page downloads.
