A Faster Parabolic 💨💨

Release Candidate 2 of V2024.10.0 is here!

Compared to V2024.10.0-rc1, this release improves the format selection algorithm to allow for faster audio-only downloads, fixes an issue where duplicate audio languages were displayed, and allows Parabolic to remember previously selected subtitles to automatically re-select for future downloads.

We recommend uninstalling any and all previous versions of Parabolic before installing and trying this beta.

This is a beta version, bugs are expected. Please file a bug report for any issue found.

A Message to Translators 🌍️

V2024.10.0 stable is aimed for Wednesday October 2, 2024. Please have all translations updated before then to be included in the release. Thank you all for your continued work and support towards Parabolic :)
