Open Soundboard

A reliability update: lots of fixes for playback, keybinds, settings, and the Downloader, plus a safer, faster sound library.

Fixes

• Fixed not being able to type in the search bar (and other text fields) on Minecraft 26.3.
• Text fields now work with input methods (IME) for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean on Minecraft 26.1 and 26.2.
• Pressing a sound twice quickly no longer plays it twice, and Stop now works even while a sound is still loading. "One sound at a time" also holds when two sounds start at once.
• Key combinations like Ctrl + K can now be bound. Before, pressing Ctrl right away bound Ctrl on its own.
• Keybinds now keep working when you switch between Minecraft versions.
• Sounds with the same name in different folders now have their own favorite, volumes, and keybind.
• Settings follow a sound when you move it to another folder (as long as its file name is unique).
• Refresh no longer renames your files. It used to rename sounds silently, turning names with non-Latin letters into "track", and lost their settings.
• Song previews in the Sound Wheel editor now only play for you, never over voice chat, and no longer stop the sound you were playing.
• Lowering the number of slots on the Sound Wheel no longer deletes the slots you had assigned beyond it.
• A broken settings file no longer stops the game from starting. It is set aside as config.json.broken-<date> and the defaults are used.
• Settings are saved safely, so a crash while saving can no longer damage them.
• Video thumbnails that fail to load are tried again after a moment.
• Sounds stop when you disconnect from Plasmo Voice, like they already did for Simple Voice Chat.

Downloader

• Downloaded tools (yt-dlp, ffmpeg, deno) are checked against their official checksums, and a download that was interrupted is no longer mistaken for a finished one.
• Now works on Linux and on ARM computers (Windows and Linux). On macOS it uses the ffmpeg you installed (for example with brew install ffmpeg).
• yt-dlp updates itself once a day, so YouTube changes do not break downloads for long.
• A link that is part of a playlist now downloads only that video.
• Downloads and searches that hang are now stopped after a time limit.

Performance

• Searching no longer re-reads the whole sounds folder on every key press.
• Sound lengths are read from the file headers instead of decoding every sound.

Good to Know

• The first time you use the Downloader after updating, it downloads its tools once more, so they can be verified.
