Albedolizer v1.7.6-beta
Chinese localization + critical batch fix + memory optimization.
🇨🇳 Chinese Localization
- Full Simplified Chinese UI (中文) — every button, tab, header, dialog, and log message translated
- Segmented language switcher in header —
RU | EN | 中文chips, active one highlighted with accent - Auto-detect system language on first launch —
ru/zh/enpicked from Windows UI locale - Fallback to English if the saved language is unknown or invalid
- Chinese manual —
manual.htmlnow has three languages with segmented switcher - NotoSansSC font bundled for correct CJK rendering, with system fallback
🔴 Critical Batch Fix
Double-click on Batch / PBR Batch / Compress Batch was spawning parallel runs and corrupting output files. If you clicked "Run" twice before the first batch finished — two processes wrote to the same _corrected / _compressed / _pbr_output folder, overwriting each other.
Fixed with batch_running, compress_batch_running, pbr_batch_running flags. Second click is now ignored until the current batch finishes.
⚡ Memory Optimization
Batch processing was leaking memory on large folders:
asyncio.gather→ worker pool — only N coroutines alive at once, notlen(files). On a 500-file folder this used to create 500 idle coroutines waiting for the semaphore.LUTwithBGridModelsingleton — was recreated and re-loaded on every file (~500 MB per instance). Now loaded once per session.- Explicit
del+gc.collect()after each file in afinallyblock — big 8K arrays are freed before the next file starts. - Log panel — no longer rebuilds the whole ListView on every line. Only appends/removes one
ft.Text. - Thread pool capped at 4 +
cv2.setNumThreads(1)— keeps CPU and RAM stable on big batches.
Result: stable memory usage during batch processing, no more growing RAM.
