Captail v0.8.2

Warning

Captail 0.8.2 is an early public preview. Bugs and hardware-specific issues are expected.

Improved

• Fast clip editor timeline generation: Parallelized frame thumbnail extraction across CPU cores with bounded concurrency, reducing clip editor opening time by up to 3–4× when working with unindexed video files.
• RAM buffer memory safety: Set a default 2000 MB buffer ceiling for newly created configurations to prevent unbounded memory growth during high-resolution (1440p/4K) or high-bitrate instant replay sessions, while fully preserving explicit duration-only user choices.
• Disk buffer diagnostics and observability: Replaced silent catch blocks in disk buffer cleanup, segment pruning, and volume space inspection with actionable diagnostic logging.

Downloads

• Installer (recommended): Captail-0.8.2-Setup-win-x64.exe includes Captail, .NET, libobs, FFmpeg, and an uninstaller.
• Portable: extract the entire Captail-0.8.2-Portable-win-x64.zip before launching Captail.exe.

Compatibility and feedback

Captail is tested on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 and RTX 50 series. Older NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel hardware needs broader public testing. Report problems through GitHub Issues.
