What is new

  • Prefer DX12 over Vulkan on Windows. wgpu's Vulkan path on NVIDIA + Desktop Window Manager can trigger a dwmcore.dll heap corruption (Event Log: dwm.exe fault, exception code 0xc00001ad) that takes the whole desktop down - black wallpaper, every other GPU-using app crashing in cascade. DX12 lives closer to the Windows graphics stack and avoids the failure mode.

  • README troubleshooting section covers the DWM crash, the cheap-card MFT source reader lockup window, the Windows port reservation gotcha (error 10013), and the current "audio relay is local-only" limitation.

Keep your GPU driver current. The Vulkan-backed v0.1.1 build would specifically misbehave with older NVIDIA drivers; v0.1.2 sidesteps that path on Windows entirely but a current driver is still good hygiene.
