Changelog — TubeFetcher

1.3.0 2026-04-09

Added

Two-phase download progress — after the server finishes fetching the file, a second progress bar ("Saving to your device…") tracks the transfer to your browser with real-time percentage and byte counts
Redis-backed task state — download queue, progress, and concurrency control now use Redis instead of in-memory dicts, enabling persistence across restarts
Queue position and estimated wait time shown while waiting for a download slot
Ko-fi floating widget for optional support

Smoother audio download progress — download phase now caps at 90% (matching video), with a distinct "Converting audio…" indicator while FFmpeg converts to the target format
Sitemap now includes changelog, terms, and privacy pages
Tagline updated to "Your open-source media toolkit"
Footer streamlined — removed redundant support link
Ko-fi widget scales down on small screens for better mobile experience

1.2.0 2026-04-03

Clip mode — download only a segment of a video by specifying start/end timestamps
Unified progress bar for video+audio downloads — single smooth bar instead of two separate progress cycles
Phase-aware progress labels: "Downloading video…", "Downloading audio…", "Merging audio & video…"
Indeterminate animation during merge and clip trim phases

Estimated file size hidden during clip downloads to avoid showing misleading full-file sizes

1.1.0 2026-03-29

Live stream and upcoming stream detection — these are now blocked before download starts, with a clear error message
Per-file size limit (default 5 GB) to prevent any single download from filling up disk space
Orphan download protection — if you close the browser tab or lose connection, the server automatically kills the abandoned download after 90 seconds
Automatic cleanup of partial files when a download is cancelled or fails
New environment variables: `MAX_FILESIZE_MB` and `ORPHAN_TIMEOUT`
