DA Media Browser 0.14.0 (beta)

Media Chapter Browser has a new name, and the AI's API key now lives in your
system keyring instead of a settings file.

New name: DA Media Browser

  • The window, the menus, the desktop entry and the AppImage
    (DAMediaBrowser-<version>-x86_64.AppImage) all use the new name.

  • The repository is now
    DigitalArchon/DAMediaBrowser.
    The old address redirects to it.

  • Your data has moved folders. The app now keeps its data in
    ~/.local/share/da-media-browser, so on first start it opens with an
    empty library. To keep your libraries, names and covers, close the app
    and move the old folder across before starting 0.14.0:

    mv ~/.local/share/media-chapter-browser ~/.local/share/da-media-browser
    

The API key is kept in the keyring

  • The Nano-GPT key is stored in the system keyring (GNOME Keyring or
    KWallet, or any other Secret Service provider), not in settings.json in
    plain text.
  • Paste your key into File → AI Settings once more and press Save. A
    key left in an old settings.json is no longer used, and saving removes
    it from the file.
  • Without a keyring, AI Settings says so. You can set NANOGPT_API_KEY in
    the environment instead, as before.

Before you start

  • Beta, no warranty. See the README and LICENSE (GPL-3.0-or-later).
  • AI features cost money. They're off until you add an API key, and each
    one shows roughly what it costs, but a large library adds up. Use a key
    with a daily spending limit.
  • Needs from your system: ffmpeg, mpv and (for Blu-ray folders)
    libbluray, plus a keyring if you use the AI features.
