VLPremiere Pro 0.11.135 for Apple silicon Macs (macOS 14 or later). Signed with Developer ID and notarized by Apple.
New:
- Focus Areas and the Area Tool: Draw an area over anything in the picture, then zoom in on it, highlight it or cut it out while the rest dims, one area after another. Pro.
- Suggested Focus Areas: The app outlines the people, faces and objects at the playhead, on your Mac only. Click them in order, or let Do It for Me lay out the whole sequence. Pro.
- Zoom one item: A Focus Area can zoom just the caption, title, graphic, image or video at the playhead, cut out along its own edges. Pro.
- Favorite voices, voice folders and Manage Voices: Star voices, sort them into folders, and delete or save them in one window. Pro.
- Merge speakers: When Detect splits one person in two, merge them with one click. Pro.
- Install many looks at once: Several .cube files, or a whole LUT pack folder, each pack in its own group.
- The playhead comes back: Each timeline opens where you stopped, with a “Stopped here” flag on the ruler.
Improved:
- New name: VLPremiere Pro: The app offers to move an older “VLPremier Pro” copy to the Trash; settings, projects, voices and licence stay.
- Smart search: In Effects, Graphics, Motion Studio, Text Studio, Looks, Title Styles and Keyboard Shortcuts: any word order, one typo forgiven, Russian words.
- Tools panel: In groups: click for the last tool, long-press for the rest. Object Mask, Area and Create Video Grid have their own buttons.
- Redo This Part: Remakes the part’s captions from your text, timed to the new take. Pro.
- Automatic Video: Asks the AI 4–5 times fewer questions, so long films finish much sooner, and shows the right time left during the second try. Pro.
- Dubs: Detect Again keeps your speaker names and voices, and clones are made only from that person’s own clear lines. Pro.
- Dragging the playhead past the edge of the timeline scrolls the view.
Fixed:
- A finished voiceover goes on a free track of its own language and never overwrites another track.
- Part markers are found again for voiceovers with Russian or accented names.
- Apple system voices finish properly on macOS 27.3.
- Russian voiceovers no longer guess the stress of words with two possible stresses; they are listed for you instead.
- A dub could stop at “Fitting to the original’s timing” and could not be stopped. A phrase the system can’t stretch is now tried again and then skipped (Dub the Rest makes it later), and Stop ends it at once.
- A dub could stop with “voice … has been retired” after a cloned voice was deleted. Phrases set to a deleted voice now speak in their speaker’s voice, and deleting a voice clears it from Fix This Phrase choices too.
- Dragging clips on the timeline no longer lags when a project has a dub with many takes.
- The playhead no longer disappears while you drag it.
- Closed projects and browsed looks no longer stay in memory, and long Automatic Video jobs no longer slow down as they go.
- A removed voice is forgotten everywhere, and cloning again keeps the previous recording.
