Version 1.3.0 - Auto-Split Audio, Dataset Management & Engine Controls
Auto-Split Audio
- Automatic Audio Splitting - Split long audio files into clean sentence-level clips using Qwen3 or Whisper's timestamp extraction.
- One-Click Dataset Creation - Split audio and auto-save segments with transcripts directly into dataset folders
- Trim and discard Silent areas - Uses the timestamp data to find and remove non verbal moments.
Unified ASR Engine
- Unified ASR Dropdown - Single dropdown for all transcription engines (Qwen3 ASR, VibeVoice ASR, Whisper) replacing the old radio + size selector
- ASR Engine Toggles - Enable or disable individual ASR engines in Settings, just like TTS engines
- Dynamic Defaults - ASR dropdown automatically picks the best available engine based on what's installed and enabled
- Added Whisper Large - With the addition of automatic disply of available ASR engine, adding more choices doesn't bloat the ui.
Engine Availability Checker
- Startup Engine Detection - App now auto-checks which TTS and ASR engines are installed at launch
- Auto-Disable Missing Engines - Engines that aren't installed are automatically hidden from dropdowns
- Clean Console Output - Clear status report showing which engines are available, skipped, or missing
Dataset Management
- Create Dataset Folders - Create new dataset folders directly from the Prep Audio UI
- Manage Existing Datasets - Delete dataset folders with confirmation modal
- Drag & Drop Audio - Import audio files by dragging them into the editor
