WZRD.VID v0.3.0

//wzrdVID

ANSI broadcast lab // lo-fi fragment synthesis // public-access hallucinations

Highlights

  • Authentic DATAMOSHING through controlled MPEG-4 Part 2 I/P-frame prediction manipulation.
  • Five new Style Stack effects: Pixel Sorting, Databending, Circuit Bending, Hex Editing, and Random Noise B/W.
  • Style begins at for keeping the opening portion clean before WZRD treatment starts.
  • Desktop .3gp and .3g2 import, preview, render, and selected source-audio support.
  • Improved HEIC/HEIF handling for protected Messages/Photos paths, including readable-source internalization and clearer rejection guidance when macOS denies access.
  • Faster Glitch Hell/ASCII rendering through cached glyph masks, with more detailed renderer timing diagnostics.
  • Default-on source-video audio for WZRD.VID Lite and Apple Lite, including random visual cuts and mixing with Add Audio.
  • A conventional drag-to-Applications DMG installer, plus a ZIP fallback.

macOS Install

  1. Download WZRD.VID-macOS.dmg from the v0.3.0 GitHub Release.
  2. Open the DMG.
  3. Drag WZRD.VID.app onto Applications.
  4. Choose Replace when updating an existing installation.
  5. If macOS blocks the first launch, right-click WZRD.VID.app and choose Open.

The macOS package remains ad-hoc signed and unnotarized. The DMG is an install convenience, not an automatic updater or Gatekeeper bypass.

Also Available

  • WZRD.VID-macOS.zip is provided as a fallback packaged-app download.

Notes

  • The packaged Mac app is tested primarily on Apple Silicon. Intel Mac users should run from source for now.
  • Replacing the app bundle leaves settings.json, ImportedMedia, StillCache, Previews, and user-saved recipe files outside the bundle and intact.
  • WZRD.VID processes selected media locally. WZRD.VID Lite also keeps selected media in the browser/device workflow without uploading it.

Historical binary distribution withdrawn. The source tag and release record remain available for historical reference. Previously granted licenses remain unaffected.
