imbhargav5/open-recorderOct 15, 2026 → Oct 16, 20260 days between releases
What's New
Migrates to server-driven architecture requiring PostgreSQL and centralized configuration.
Breaking Changes
- Requires PostgreSQL and a long-running Node.js server (DATABASE_URL mandatory)
- MODEL_ROUTES without openmaic.yml stops the server
- Providers with server-managed credentials require explicit model list
- Render-service must be upgraded together with or before the app
- Architecture shifts from browser-driven to server-driven state management
New Features
- Server-side generation with resumable checkpoints and streaming progress
- Centralized model configuration via openmaic.yml with encrypted keys
- Classroom export to PPTX and self-contained offline HTML files
- Identity modes: single-user, anonymous visitors, and host-authenticated accounts
- Immediate parsing of attached materials in the composer with progress feedback
Improvements
- In-line math survives saving (LaTeX source storage and rendering)
- Classroom export to PPTX with interactive scene placeholders and QR codes
- Classroom export to offline HTML with narration and video support
- Identity persistence migration from browser to server
Bug Fixes
- In-line math now survives saving (LaTeX source storage and rendering)
Upgrade Notes
Requires PostgreSQL and a long-running Node.js server; serverless hosts like Vercel must stay on 1.1.x. Configure openmaic.yml for model routes and provider credentials; ensure Render-service is upgraded. Follow the deployment guide's 'Upgrading from 1.1.x' section for detailed migration steps.
