AI Summary

This release focuses on performance improvements for long projects, including faster audio rendering and reduced memory usage during previews. Users can now source sound effects from Openverse offline. Additionally, several stability issues in the CLI, Producer, and Core components have been resolved.

Key Highlights

  • Long renders now finish their audio faster through parallel encoding.
  • Project previews for long projects use significantly less memory.
  • Sound effects can now be sourced from Openverse with offline support.
  • WebGL rendering is optimized by using a single context for graded clips.
  • Mac font lookup performance is improved by avoiding a 5-second system_profiler wait.

New Features

  • Media Use: Source sound effects from Openverse with the bundled library offline.

Full Release Notes

# HyperFrames v0.8.170

Released on 2026-10-18.

Long projects preview with far less memory and long renders finish their audio faster. Sound effects can now come from Openverse.

## Features

- **Media Use:** Source sound effects from Openverse with the bundled library offline ([49671b73dd4](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/49671b73dd417f7fe0f3c3f500290df18b447cd0), [#5753](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5753)).

## Fixes

- **Producer:** Plan hash no longer depends on the scratch folder ([deeb8d437c6](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/deeb8d437c64d4f2acbdeb107071febf0204817a), [#5782](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5782)).
- **CLI:** Render starts in a sandbox that forbids lowering CPU priority ([7e00f37be2c](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/7e00f37be2c76b4a9294c81aed79cf49667709f1), [#5814](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5814)).
- **CLI:** Show the real import error when a cloud adapter is installed ([d0da232ec96](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/d0da232ec96d5178b1d18bd1c6b155e4cbada6ea), [#5763](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5763)).
- **Core:** Font lookup on a Mac no longer waits 5 s on system_profiler ([20611541b14](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/20611541b14f9b81b6a36660797faea31714cc08), [#5810](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5810)).
- **Engine:** Render workers stop loading the videos whose frames come from FFmpeg ([6ed89a1e4c9](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/6ed89a1e4c93c9fe7dfd639681d4845174d74932), [#5795](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5795)).
- **Core:** Font setup skips parsing stylesheets that cannot name a font ([3b3007442a5](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/3b3007442a55ae09cb834de620cb537fc1b53fdd), [#5808](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5808)).

## Performance

- **Engine:** Long renders encode their audio in parallel segments ([8e4ce741182](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/8e4ce741182501271f415972d4a54156e004e3f8), [#5788](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5788)).
- **Core:** Every graded clip draws through one WebGL context, not one per clip ([aba5eae2300](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/aba5eae230015e96dfa964030a9333fdc098de78), [#5809](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5809)).
- **Producer:** Distributed mp4 chunks can carry their slice of the plan audio ([1a2194c7b4f](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/1a2194c7b4f3fcf699f9d3a619cfd43043d93d97), [#5803](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5803)).
- **Core:** A preview loads each web font once, not once per scene ([80667726e8a](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/80667726e8a94257e372a2361b0705f3f788c5ad), [#5806](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5806)).

## Internal

- **Player:** The loading-overlay debounce test no longer races real time ([cbf3f0d5474](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/cbf3f0d5474ff94aa3243f4c2e2c3e5dc6264b2d), [#5789](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5789)).
