VRKA 4.0.1 — Build 017
VRKA 4.0.1 (Build 017)
A modern, lightweight desktop media downloader for Windows with a high-performance Qt 6 QML interface, strict-FIFO task scheduling, and uBlock Origin Lite-assisted passive browser fallback.
Highlights in 4.0.1
- UPLINK Status State Machine & Visuals: Resolved an issue where the compact sidebar UPLINK status light and badge remained stuck on
UPLINK QUEUED(yellow) after task completion. The presentation bridge now connectsdataChangedandlayoutChangedmodel signals to reactive telemetry properties, ensuring the status returns deterministically toUPLINK READY(green#2BCB77) when all queued work is finished, and displaysUPLINK ACTIVE(signature purple#9255E5) during active transfers. - Dynamic Version Header: Bound application title, sidebar, and Settings version metadata dynamically to
APP_DISPLAY_VERSION(4.0.1 Build 017). - UPLINK State Machine Regression Coverage: Added test suite (
tests/test_uplink_state.py) verifying state transitions across task insertion, active downloading, completion, error, cancellation, and multi-task queue scenarios. - Consolidated Test Discovery: Standardized test layout under
tests/supportingpython -m unittest discover -s tests. - Interface Screenshot & Documentation Refresh: Updated all documentation captures with genuine screenshots reflecting 4.0.1 with exact authoritative VRKA 3.0 visual semantics.

No Manual FFmpeg Installation Required:
VRKA is strictly PATH-independent. The single-file portable executable automatically provisions and cryptographically verifies a pinned external FFmpeg runtime in%LOCALAPPDATA%\VRKA\runtime\upon first video merge or audio extraction, and reuses it offline on subsequent runs. You do not need to install FFmpeg or set environment variables.
