VLPremiere Pro 0.11.57 for Apple silicon Macs (macOS 14 or later). Signed with Developer ID and notarized by Apple. It also includes 0.11.56.
New:
- Captions know their language: Every way of bringing captions in now reads the language from the text, or from a file name like EN_… or ….ru.srt. Captions go on that language's track, tagged EN, RU and so on.
- Language tags set for you: After a transcription, the language it heard becomes the sequence's spoken language, and the voice track and caption tracks are tagged to match.
- Wrong tags corrected: When a project or the Dub window opens, a caption track whose tag doesn't match its text is corrected, and the status line says so. Edit › Undo puts the old tags back.
- One language menu: The menu in the Program Monitor bar is the one choice. Translate and Dub from Captions follow it.
- Dub window: Each caption track shows its language and number of captions. Voice lists are grouped: this sequence, other sequences, other voices. Remove Voice… takes a wrong cloned voice out of the lists.
- » More tools in the Program Monitor: When the panel is narrow, a » button lists the tools that don't fit, with their shortcuts.
Fixed:
- Captions added in another language: No longer seem to disappear: they stay hidden while you watch a different language, and the status line says how to see them.
- Language tags: Sit inside their own track's row, so they no longer read as belonging to the track above.
- A new sequence: No longer takes its spoken language from the sequence you worked in before.
- Track names: Follow a corrected language tag.
- Sound dropping out of a clip: Three causes are fixed: a clip with Click Remover, DeNoise or Pitch Shifter could stay silent until the next cut; a file macOS failed to open once dropped out of the sound; and two automation paths left the player's volume at zero.
Known issue:
- Single voice clips going silent during playback: Some of you have reported this. The fixes above may not cover every case, so we can't call it solved yet. This version adds a check to the app's log. If it happens to you, please open a support ticket with the time it happened.
Licence:
- The app now checks your licence against a key built into the app, which makes it harder to tamper with. There is nothing for you to do: your licence, offline use and your Macs work as before.
