HyperFrames v0.7.61

Released on 2026-07-17.

Studio and the render pipeline gain automatic media proxying — hostile codecs (HEVC, alpha-channel video, undecodable formats) are transcoded to H.264 proxies on demand and served consistently across preview, render, and published archives, with an opt-out for projects that don't need it. Studio's flat inspector is now the default panel after its bug-fix pass (right-aligned values, Stroke width/style split, non-visual-element section gating, a fixed Slideshow tab), and the GSAP timeline lint gains new seek-order and relative-value safety checks.
