Pawchive Downloader v1.0.3

What's Changed in v1.0.3

⏱️ Rock-Solid ETA & Accurate Live Speed

• Real-Time Speed Monitoring: The speed badge now reflects your exact live throughput (updating every 1.5–2 seconds) so you always see what your connection is doing right now.
• Smart Learning ETA: The remaining time estimator now calculates your sustained average download pace over the whole session. If your speed briefly drops during a file transition or network hiccup, the ETA won't wildly jump around—it stays steady and counts down smoothly second-by-second.
• Learned File Size Estimates: The downloader learns the average file size of finished attachments as it goes, making ETAs much more accurate even when posts don't report file sizes in advance.

👥 100k+ Character Recognition & Series Organization

• Massive Booru Database: Includes over 101,900 characters and 54,500 series aggregated from Danbooru, Gelbooru, and e621.
• Instant Recognition: Replaced linear list scanning with instant dictionary lookups—scanning 700+ posts is now instantaneous.
• 5ms Startup: Pre-compiled database binary (master_characters.bin) for near-instant app launch.
• Grouped Known Manager: Visual Franchise → Character management view right inside the app.

⚡ Other Improvements

• Auto-Shutdown / Restart: Option to automatically turn off or restart your PC when downloads finish, with a 60-second cancelable countdown timer.
• UI Bug Fixes: Fixed a font scaling issue in the Settings view.
