Closing a dubbing project/session

[MikeWI69]

Hi, I'm looking for a way to close a dubbing session/project so that it doesn't appear the next time the program is open. Does anyone know how to do this?

There is no separate Close button. What you are seeing is the app restoring your last draft: the dubbing session auto-saves to a local draft and reloads it on launch, so it reappears every time.

To close it, open the Library (Projects page), select the dub project row, and Delete it. That removes the project on the backend (DELETE /projects/:id) and detaches the open session, so it will not come back on next launch.

One warning from reading the code: delete is destructive — it removes the project, not just the window state. If you want to keep the work, export what you need first.

Thanks for your response but this does not work at least in the Windows version. The Dub screen is still populated and none of the files in the dub_jobs sub-directory under AppData > Roaming > OmniVoice were purged.
I also tried removing Generation & dub history, with their audio via the Settings > Storage option and that didn't work either.

deleting a library entry doesn't necessarily close the working dub. in the v0.5.6 source, it drops the saved-project link without clearing the loaded source or transcript

if your dub page has "Remove video" or "Remove audio" beside the source, i'd use that when nothing is running. the current code clears the active draft without deleting dub_jobs. save or export anything you want to keep first, since it discards the transcript and unsaved edits

that control isn't in the v0.5.6 dub page, though. what version/build does settings > about show? i don't want to send you hunting for a button your build doesn't have

I am using the lastest windows x64 build · v0.5.6
I have a Change file option next to the source on the Dub page, but it just forces me to select a new media file which will then remain active the next time the program opens, so it's not really of much help
If there's an older build that would allow me to clear the Dub page, I'd be happy to switch to that
thanks for your help

This has been corrected in the latest build v0.5.7. Thank you!
