LCT (LiveCaptions Translator) v1.0.4 for Windows

Puts the Windows app back on the 1.0.x version line and rebuilds the release
pipeline. The application itself is the same as 0.1.4.

Changed

  • Version numbering is back on the 1.0.x line. 0.1.4 was published with a
    number lower than 1.0.3 by mistake; 1.0.4 supersedes both.
  • The installer and the portable executables are built together from one
    pipeline and carry the same version as the release tag. The executable's own
    version information no longer reports 1.0.2.
  • Release notes are written for users (this file) instead of being generated
    from commit messages.
  • SHA-256 checksums (SHA256SUMS.txt) are published with every release.
  • The in-app update check looks at this repository's releases instead of an
    older repository.

Fixed

  • The in-app updater could never find the installer: it required "x64" in the
    file name, which LCT-vX.Y.Z-Setup.exe never had, so installing an update
    always failed with "No suitable installer found for this platform".

Downloads

File Pick it when
LCT-v1.0.4-Setup.exe Recommended. Installer for x64 PCs; bundles the .NET runtime and the Visual C++ redistributable.
LiveCaptionsTranslator-1.0.4-win-x64-withruntime.exe Portable, nothing to install, .NET runtime included.
LiveCaptionsTranslator-1.0.4-win-x64.exe Portable and smaller; needs the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime.
LiveCaptionsTranslator-1.0.4-win-arm64-withruntime.exe Portable for ARM64 PCs (Snapdragon), runtime included.
LiveCaptionsTranslator-1.0.4-win-arm64.exe Portable for ARM64 PCs; needs the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime.
SHA256SUMS.txt Checksums of the files above.

Requirements

  • Windows 11 22H2 or later with Live Captions available (Settings ▸ Accessibility ▸ Captions). Turn Live Captions on once and let it download its language pack before starting LCT; the setup guide walks through it.
  • An internet connection on first launch: LCT downloads a local Ollama engine and the default translation model. After that, translation runs fully on your PC.
  • 8 GB of RAM or more recommended.

Known limitations

  • The binaries are not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen may show "Windows protected your PC". Choose More info ▸ Run anyway. If in doubt, compare the file's SHA-256 with SHA256SUMS.txt.
  • The installer is x64 only; on ARM64 PCs use the portable ARM64 build.
