SceneForge Studio 0.9.4-beta.9 (beta)
Beta pre-release: offered only to people who turned on Help → Receive beta updates.
Changes since 0.9.4-beta.1.
New: trending effects and transitions (CapCut-style)
- Effects → More effects → Trending: Beat zoom, Flash, Motion trails, Mirror, RGB split (on the beat or steady), Cinematic fade & zoom, Intro move (swipe left/right/up, spin, zoom), Before & after (a white line sweeps across revealing the real picture) and Speed blur (the "velocity" look). Each has its own settings and can be reordered or bypassed in the effect stack and saved in look presets.
- Seven new transitions: Whip pan left and right, Spin, Zoom punch, Glitch, Cinematic zoom fade, and Before & after. Hover a transition to preview it.
- Three new looks: Y2K, Cozy, and Clean & bright, each with its own sliders.
- Speed ramps (velocity) and slow motion for video clips are under Motion → Speed.
Local AI without Docker
- Stable Diffusion and Chatterbox install with one click into SceneForge's own folder. No Docker, no administrator rights. A setup screen shows progress, and you can keep working while it runs.
- Kokoro voices built in (English, Spanish, French, Hindi, Italian, Portuguese), running on your computer after a one-time download of about 120 MB.
- Gemini voices (cloud, free AI Studio key): 30 voices covering 100+ languages, including Arabic.
- "Use my NVIDIA graphics card" is now saved, is chosen automatically when an NVIDIA driver is found, and can be switched later without downloading the models again.
- Engines left running by an earlier SceneForge are replaced automatically. On Windows, engines now close together with SceneForge.
- Repair Chatterbox fixes a Chatterbox that failed to load. The "'NoneType' object is not callable" error is fixed.
- Voicebox (optional): if the Voicebox app is open, its voices appear in SceneForge. Stuck Voicebox jobs are detected and can be cleared.
Editing
- Insert a picture or video between two parts: a marker shows where it will go. Or right-click a part and choose Insert picture or video before… / after….
- Timeline tools now explain what they do. Blade also cuts parts on the Picture track.
- A tip appears when a part has no narration yet. Error messages now include a "What to do" line.
- Captions for songs: much better at catching sung vocals.
- Laptop screens and small windows: tabs, preview and timeline no longer get squeezed or cut off.
- One search-box design everywhere, with a live match count.
Reliability
- The editor stays responsive while an AI engine is busy or not answering.
- Help → Export diagnostics now includes the AI engine logs and setup state.
- Fixed a start-up error in the packaged app that affected installer builds since beta.3.
Notes
- Local AI engines download their models on first use (several GB for Stable Diffusion), so the first start needs an internet connection.
- This is a beta. If something fails, use Help → Export diagnostics and attach the zip to an issue.
