AnchorCast v1.6.0 — Reliability & Bug Fix Release

🐞 Bug Fixes + 🛟 Reliability Improvements

This release fixes a broken Bible import path, a transcript data-loss bug, and an intermittent projection display issue — plus adds live crash-recovery for transcripts and a smarter default-translation behavior.

🐞 Bug Fixes

• Bible upload/import broken with "no handler registered" error — the save-bible-version handler that both the General tab's manual Upload and the Custom Translation (Advanced) paste-JSON import depend on had been accidentally dropped during earlier refactoring. Both import paths are restored and working again.
• "Clear all" on the AI Detections panel silently erased the live transcript — clicking Clear all to reset the detected-verses list was also wiping the entire in-progress sermon transcript with no warning, so anything transcribed before that click never made it into the saved history. The two are now completely independent — Clear all only touches the detections list, as the label says.
• Projection window sometimes opening on the main screen instead of the external display — a timing race between positioning the window on the target display and transitioning it to fullscreen could cause the projection window to land on the wrong screen, inconsistently. The window is now positioned and explicitly verified on the target display before going fullscreen, with an automatic self-correction pass if it still lands wrong.

🛟 Reliability Improvements

• Live transcript autosave — the in-progress transcript is now periodically saved to a recovery file in the background while recording, completely separate from the permanent History save that happens on Stop. If AnchorCast is interrupted mid-service for any reason — a crash, a force-quit, a power loss — the transcript is automatically recovered into History the next time the app launches, labeled "Recovered Session," instead of being lost outright.
• Per-translation default on import — importing a translation now automatically activates it and remembers that choice for future launches, the same way manually switching translations in the dropdown already persists. First use case: 21st Century King James (KJ21) — note this translation is copyrighted and must still be imported manually via an authorized source; AnchorCast cannot bundle or auto-download it, but once imported it becomes your default automatically.
