## [1.4.1] - 2026-09-03
|
||||
## [1.4.2] - 2026-09-08
|
||||
|
||||
This release resolves Windows WebView2 startup crashes and focus deadlocks, adds route-aware transfers and native asynchronous DNS resolution for TUN proxies, isolates engine staging workspaces, and prepares Firelink Companion 2.2.1 for Microsoft Edge Add-ons.
|
||||
|
||||
### Fixes
|
||||
|
||||
- Prevent Windows WebView2 startup crashes and focus recursion by deferring window activation, isolating AppData junctions, and gating renderer IPC behind post-load event ticks, addressing [#37](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/37).
|
||||
- Prevent Properties window deadlocks on Windows by serializing child WebViews and excluding custom caption rails from drag hit-testing, addressing [#37](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/37).
|
||||
- Restore immediate credential recovery for edited downloads without stale keychain password conflicts.
|
||||
- Implement route-aware transfers with native asynchronous DNS resolution (`firelink-native-dns-v1`) to prevent Aria2 loop freezes under TUN/VPN proxies (such as Shadowrocket or Sing-box), while preserving fallback for stock Aria2 daemons, addressing [#38](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/38).
|
||||
- Harden route-aware Torrent metadata resolution and magnet probe cleanup on active proxy routes.
|
||||
|
||||
### Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
- Isolate engine staging per build invocation with atomic workspaces (`FIRELINK_ENGINE_OUTPUT_ROOT`), avoiding shared staging locks.
|
||||
- Update locked engine sources: BtbN FFmpeg autobuild to 2026-09-02, yt-dlp to 2026.08.19, Deno to 2.9.6, and Aria2 to 1.37.0.
|
||||
- Stabilize cross-platform CI replacement fingerprints and Linux Torrent probe test harnesses.
|
||||
- Advance Firelink Companion submodule to `2.2.1` with localization metadata and Edge Add-ons support, addressing [#39](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/39).
|
||||
|
||||
### Compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
- Use [Firelink Companion `2.2.1`](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink-Extension/releases/tag/v2.2.1), or the [latest Companion release](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink-Extension/releases/latest), with Firelink `1.4.1`.
|
||||
|
||||
## [1.4.0] - 2026-08-27
|
||||
|
||||
This release adds built-in Torrent downloads and a dedicated Properties window, while making regular downloads, browser handoffs, and cross-platform packages more dependable.
|
||||
This is the stable follow-up to the 1.4.0 pre-release and includes all work since 1.3.1. It is a major release focused on built-in Torrents, clearer transfer controls, safer recovery, and better browser and VPN support.
|
||||
|
||||
### New features
|
||||
|
||||
- **Torrent downloads**
|
||||
- **BitTorrent downloads and browser handoff**
|
||||
- Add `.torrent` files and magnet links from the Add window, file associations, `magnet:` links, and Firelink Companion.
|
||||
- Resolve remote metadata before enqueueing and safely reuse validated Torrent metadata.
|
||||
- Select files, prioritize pieces, preallocate or allocate as needed, verify existing data, remove unselected files safely, and add per-file web seeds.
|
||||
- Manage trackers and exclusions, tracker timing, DHT/IPv6/PEX/LPD discovery, encryption, peer limits, network identity, and resource limits.
|
||||
- View file progress, piece availability, connected and listed peers, seeders, upload totals and speed, and the info hash.
|
||||
- Set upload limits, seed time or ratio, stop timeout, concurrent seed slots, and move Torrent data to a new location.
|
||||
- Use a dedicated Torrents category with pause, resume, retry, redownload, and safe cleanup.
|
||||
- Review remote metadata before queueing; choose files and priorities, allocate or preallocate data, verify existing files, remove unselected files safely, and add per-file web seeds.
|
||||
- Configure trackers and exclusions, tracker timing, DHT/IPv6/PEX/LPD discovery, encryption, peer limits, network identity, and resource limits.
|
||||
- See per-file and piece progress, availability, peers, seeders, info hash, and upload activity.
|
||||
- Set upload and seeding limits, seed time or ratio, stop timeout, concurrent seed slots, and move Torrent data.
|
||||
- Manage Torrents in a dedicated category with pause, resume, retry, redownload, and safe cleanup.
|
||||
- Send browser magnets, direct `.torrent` links, and browser-local Torrent attachments to the Add window for review.
|
||||
- **Download and Torrent Properties windows**
|
||||
- Open a selected download in its own window with overview, transfer, and advanced controls.
|
||||
- Use Torrent tabs for file selection, trackers, peers, options, and live diagnostics.
|
||||
- Edit supported settings while a transfer is active, including speed, connections, Torrent upload and peer limits, seeding, verification, allocation, and encryption.
|
||||
- Inspect allocation, exact progress, resume failures, destinations, and current diagnostics; copy long URLs or paths and export magnet links where available.
|
||||
- Keep the window size during the app session while the window follows the current theme and locale.
|
||||
- Change supported transfer, Torrent, seeding, verification, allocation, and encryption settings while work is active.
|
||||
- Inspect exact progress, allocation, destinations, resume failures, and diagnostics; copy long URLs or paths and export magnet links.
|
||||
- Keep the Properties window size during the session while theme and locale follow the app.
|
||||
- **Adaptive mirror selection**
|
||||
- Optionally use recent transfer performance to choose among multiple mirrors. Mirror statistics stay private on this device.
|
||||
- Optionally choose among mirrors using recent transfer performance; history remains private on this device.
|
||||
- **Transfer and layout visibility**
|
||||
- Show the file-allocation phase while a normal download prepares its destination.
|
||||
- See when a normal download is allocating its destination.
|
||||
- Remember the main-window size and position and the Folders collapse preference between launches.
|
||||
|
||||
### Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
- Improve normal-download recovery across restarts, stale transfers, redirects, mirrors, connection-pool slowdowns, retries, and resume operations without saved credentials.
|
||||
- Improve media recovery and resume messaging, preserve exact progress at the end of a transfer, and restore adaptive YouTube formats. This responds to the interrupted-YouTube-download report in [#36](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/36).
|
||||
- Make browser and deep-link inputs arrive in order, keep magnet clipboard handoffs usable, and make Add-window destination and metadata validation clearer.
|
||||
- Improve the download table, sidebar, Add window, Settings, RTL keyboard navigation, and accessibility behavior at narrow window sizes.
|
||||
- Add clear guidance for the macOS first-launch security warning and safe approval steps, responding to [#34](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/34).
|
||||
- Refresh bundled engines and dependencies, resume interrupted engine downloads safely, and strengthen package, release, and cross-platform verification.
|
||||
- Make normal downloads recover more reliably across restarts, redirects, retries, resumed transfers, missing credentials, and connection slowdowns.
|
||||
- Improve media recovery and resume behavior, preserve exact final progress, and restore adaptive YouTube formats after interruptions, addressing [#36](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/36).
|
||||
- Keep browser and deep-link inputs in order; make magnet clipboard handoffs and Add-window destination and metadata validation clearer.
|
||||
- Make the download table, sidebar, Add window, Settings, RTL keyboard navigation, and accessibility behavior more usable at narrow window sizes.
|
||||
- Document the macOS first-launch security warning and safe approval steps after the report in [#34](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/34).
|
||||
- Refresh bundled engines and dependencies, resume interrupted engine downloads safely, and strengthen cross-platform package and release verification.
|
||||
|
||||
### Fixes
|
||||
|
||||
- Retry affected transfers through the system resolver when a VPN or network tunnel leaves aria2 unable to resolve a host, addressing [#35](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/35).
|
||||
- Prevent late or duplicate lifecycle events from reviving, removing, or misreporting a download after a newer action has already won.
|
||||
- Keep replacement, removal, and pre-admission cleanup from leaving stale queue entries, partial files, or misleading progress behind.
|
||||
- Keep completed, paused, failed, and retrying downloads authoritative while allocation and progress updates arrive asynchronously.
|
||||
- Make scheduled actions, speed limits, logs, persisted settings, and browser credentials safer when several changes happen close together.
|
||||
- Fix the Windows 1.4.0 startup failure, focus recursion, and Properties-window deadlock reported in [#37](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/37) and [#41](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/41).
|
||||
- Fix immediate download failures after the Add window showed **Ready** when a VPN or TUN's DNS path could not reach its servers; retry through the system resolver for affected transfers, addressing [#35](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/35).
|
||||
- Fix false **Unsafe URL** failures under V2RayN, Proxifier, and other TUN or proxy setups by letting hostname lookups follow the active network route while continuing to block literal local and private targets, addressing [#38](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/38).
|
||||
- Protect persisted downloads during startup and recover schema-v3 records instead of wiping or losing them.
|
||||
- Prevent stale or duplicate pause, resume, retry, completion, and removal actions from reviving items, misreporting progress, or leaving queue ownership behind.
|
||||
- Make replacements and cleanup safe when downloads are queued, retried, canceled, paused, completed, or removed, including multi-file assets.
|
||||
- Prevent browser capture races from duplicating a download, resuming it too early, or applying cleanup to the wrong item.
|
||||
- Fix network and Settings panel overlap plus Windows frame, shadow, focus, and cross-platform control issues.
|
||||
- Restore edited-download credentials without stale keychain conflicts.
|
||||
|
||||
### Compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
- Use [Firelink Companion `2.2.0`](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink-Extension/releases/tag/v2.2.0), or the [latest Companion release](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink-Extension/releases/latest), with Firelink `1.4.0`.
|
||||
- Use [Firelink Companion `2.2.2`](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink-Extension/releases/tag/v2.2.2), or the [latest Companion release](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink-Extension/releases/latest), with Firelink `1.4.2`. The Companion includes the shared Chromium package and localized Edge Add-ons submission material requested in [#39](https://github.com/nimbold/Firelink/issues/39); the public Edge listing still requires Microsoft's certification.
