🐱 LiquidCat 0.3.0 — Batch import, new languages & a fresh look

Two roadmap items land in this release: batch import and four new languages. It also brings important fixes to trimming and the queue, smarter presets and a cleaner, more compact interface.

✨ What's new

  • Batch import: paste many links at once (one per line) or load them from a .txt, and every link goes straight into the queue with your current settings. Duplicates and non-link lines are skipped.
  • Multiple local files: pick or drag several files into Local files; each one is converted as its own job in the queue.
  • New languages: Português, Français, Deutsch and Italiano join Español and English.
  • H.264 compatible: a new quick quality that grabs the best H.264 + AAC tracks without re-encoding, so the MP4 plays on any TV, phone or editor. The format lists now star the tracks that will actually be downloaded.
  • New presets: Original · max quality, H.264 compatible, 1080p H.264 + subtitles, 720p light (HEVC), Music MP3 320, Audio M4A · no re-encode, FLAC lossless and Podcast / voice. Your own presets are kept.
  • A cat for every theme: each of the 14 themes has its own icon in the header and in the taskbar, smoothly scaled for any display.
  • Friendlier Activity: a card with the current job, its progress and a clean event list with icons. The full technical log is one click away under Details.
  • Refreshed layout: side-by-side panels, a more compact interface, a bigger title and styled window buttons.

🛠️ Fixes

  • Trimming: cutting from 0:05 to 0:08 now gives exactly 3 seconds. It used to cut the wrong segment.
  • Queue: downloads and local conversions no longer run at the same time and step on each other (cancel, progress and history).
  • Faster downloads: removed a 3–10 s wait before every single download. Playlists keep a short pause to avoid rate limits.
  • Cookies: choosing None really disables browser cookies now.
  • Fixed the elongated close button in Settings, Wiki and Credits, misaligned card headers, and symbols that didn't render in the Wiki.

⚠️ Known limitations (0.3.0)

  • When LiquidCat is closed or pinned, the taskbar shows the default purple icon. The theme icon appears while the app is open.
  • Expanded accessibility and keyboard navigation is still on the roadmap.

📦 Platforms

  • Windows x86_64: LiquidCat-0.3.0-windows-x86_64.exe
