VapourBox 0.7.1

Changes

• Fix false telecine detection on VHS tapes: Interlaced PAL VHS content was being misclassified as hard telecine due to stray repeated fields from tracking instability. Now requires ≥15% repeated fields ratio (real 3:2 pulldown is ~40%) instead of triggering on any single repeated field.
• Skip VHS leader for scan analysis: idet analysis now skips the first 2 seconds of longer videos to avoid unstable VHS leader/tracking sections.

Dependencies

Uses dependencies from: deps-v1.1.0

VapourBox 0.7.0

What's New

Soft Telecine Support

• Added soft telecine (IVTC) as a deinterlace method
• Replaced scan type detection with ffmpeg idet filter for more accurate interlace/telecine detection
• Auto-detects soft telecine content and suggests appropriate processing

Preset System Improvements

• Update presets: Sync button on user presets to update with current settings
• Overwrite warning: Confirmation dialog when saving a preset with a duplicate name

UI/UX Improvements

• Show actual frame rates (e.g., 29.97 fps) in QTGMC output rate options instead of rounded values
• Disable processing button during active processing, with cancel confirmation dialog
• Hide TFF field order parameter when not using QTGMC deinterlace method

Developer Improvements

• Added macOS debug build-and-run script (Scripts/run-debug-macos.sh)
• Fixed macOS GitHub Actions workflow (correct Rust action, xcodebuild build process)
• Added Scripts/ci-build-and-release.sh to trigger CI builds and upload artifacts to draft releases
• Fixed macOS debug SIGPIPE crash caused by Flutter 3.35+ merged UI/platform thread mode

Dependencies
