What changed in 0.16.0

• Added Check new files… for downloads, copies, recordings, and encodes that are not yet in the permanent library
• Accepts individual files or recursively scans a selected folder
• Offers a quick structure/metadata check or an optional full decode of the primary video stream
• Uses distinct Quick check passed and Full check passed verdicts so the result does not claim more verification than was performed
• Detects files that still appear to be changing and asks the user to wait for the copy or download to finish
• Keeps temporary preflight results out of the library cache, history, and persistent review states
• Supports cancellation, plain-language details, and CSV report export
• Fits the preflight window above the Windows taskbar and provides a scrollable details section on shorter displays

MediaCheck remains read-only. It does not copy, rename, move, repair, or delete media files.

Requirements

• 64-bit Windows 11
• FFprobe and FFmpeg
• Read access to the folders being tested
