Full Release Notes
A fast follow to v0.3.13: **every engine family now has a visible picker.** Settings → Engines showed only a TTS table, with the ASR and LLM pickers hidden behind a low-discoverability tab — so the 10 transcription engines (including the new OpenAI-compatible backend) looked unswitchable without env vars. Now all three families get their own table. Also in: the Linux AppImage's white-screen auto-workaround now checks the WebKitGTK it actually ships (not whatever your system reports), and installing to a different drive on Windows is properly documented. ### Added - **ASR engines get the same Settings picker TTS has.** Settings → Engines now shows a visible picker table per family — TTS, ASR, and LLM — instead of a single TTS-titled table with the other families tucked behind a tab (README even promised a Settings ASR picker that didn't exist). The OpenAI-compatible backend and the 9 local ASR engines become selectable with one click, no env vars needed; an explicit `OMNIVOICE_ASR_BACKEND` still wins over the Settings pick, so pinned setups behave exactly as before. (no issue — UX gap found during #877) ### Fixed - **The Linux AppImage's white-screen auto-workaround now checks the right WebKitGTK.** The launcher decided whether to apply the compositing workaround by asking the *system's* `pkg-config` — but the version that actually runs is the *bundled* one, which the AppImage prioritizes. On any machine where the two diverge (e.g. building from source with newer dev packages installed), the detection read the wrong number and could skip a workaround the running library needed. The build now stamps the bundled version into the AppImage at package time, and the launcher reads that stamp — correct by construction. The launcher's shell tests also now run in CI, which they previously never did. (#961 follow-up) ### Docs - **Windows: installing to a different drive is documented** — the wizard's directory picker works for any local drive; mapped network drives are a Windows Installer limitation (not installable-to by design); and the big data (models/voices) moves independently via Settings → Storage or Portable mode.
