V1.2.1

🚀 Improvements

• Faster transcription — audio is now transcribed in small overlapping chunks while you record, so pressing Stop finishes near-instantly on longer recordings instead of processing everything at the end.
• Snappier recording start — the Record button now responds the instant you click it (shows "Starting…"/Stop immediately) instead of lagging while audio capture sets up.
• Clearer meeting summaries — generated summaries are now prefixed with a  --- 📝 Meeting Summary 📝 ---  header so it's obvious where your own notes end and the auto-summary begins.

🐛 Fixes

• Fixed "Audio capture unavailable" on some PCs — resolved a system-audio capture failure that could block recording from starting.
• Recordings are no longer lost when closing a note — closing the note while a recording is in progress now automatically stops it, finishes transcription, and writes the summary into the note before saving (previously the in-progress summary was silently dropped and the mic stayed locked).
• Note editor no longer closes accidentally — clicking outside the note window no longer dismisses it; close it explicitly with the ✕, Cancel, Save note, or Esc.
• More helpful capture errors — if the microphone is unavailable (e.g. in use by Teams/Zoom), the status now names the actual problem instead of a generic message.

📖 Documentation

• Added install guidance to the README explaining the Windows SmartScreen ("Windows protected your PC") prompt and how to proceed (More info → Run anyway).

V1.2.0

🎙️ Voice recording & local transcription

Meeting Notes can now record audio and turn it into text — right inside a note,
fully offline. Hit Record, talk through your meeting, and the transcript is
written straight into the note.

What's new

• Record button in the note editor — capture speech and transcribe it into the note.
• 100% on-device — transcription runs locally via Whisper. No audio ever leaves
  your machine, nothing is uploaded, and it works with no internet connection.
• Audio is never stored — recordings are transcribed in memory and discarded;
  only the resulting text is saved.

Notes

• Transcription is appended to the note you have open.
• Speech-to-text uses CPU and runs at roughly 1.5× the audio length, so a few
  minutes of audio takes a short moment to process.

🔄 Update is delivered automatically — restart when prompted.
