# Changelog
-## [Unreleased]
+## [0.5.0] - 2026-07-01
- **Fixed: some Odysee/Rumble/Twitch videos opened in a YouTube player.** A video you'd opened before multi-platform support was added could get stuck playing in the YouTube embed even after its data was corrected, because the browser's local transcript cache (IndexedDB) held an old record with no platform and was never invalidated. The cache now self-heals — stale records are discarded on load — so every video plays in its correct platform's player. As a safeguard, a video whose platform somehow can't be determined now shows an "Open on source site" link instead of silently loading the wrong player.
- **Instant offline word-search, powered by a background FlexSearch index.** On the Offline page, each channel now has a **Build index** action: it constructs a FlexSearch full-text index for that channel in a **Web Worker** — entirely off the main thread, so indexing a large channel never freezes the page (a live progress % shows the work). Once built, a search box does **instant word/prefix search** across your indexed channels and returns the matching transcript lines (with channel + timestamp) — and because the index is built from the same shards the offline download caches, it works with no connection. The worker bundles into the static site (no server needed). This is a first, self-contained surface; the main search box will gain the same acceleration next.
- **Install the archive as an app, and search it offline.** Each public site is now a PWA: it ships a web app manifest (named + themed with the site's accent color) and an icon set, so your browser can install it to your home screen or desktop and open it in its own window. A service worker caches the app so it loads instantly on repeat visits and still opens without a connection. A new **Offline** page (linked in the footer) lists the site's channels with a **Download** button each — pick the channels you want and their transcripts are saved to your device so you can **search them with no connection**; a live Online/Offline indicator and per-channel "Available offline" state show what's ready, and you can remove a channel to free space. Downloads are opt-in (a channel's transcripts can be large) and refresh automatically when the site is rebuilt. Everything still works online-only in browsers without service-worker support.
