AeroFetch v0.7.2 Stable
2026-07-10 10:43:14 -04:00 | 8 commits to main since this releaseChanged
- Update infrastructure consolidated: now that the AeroFetch repo is public, the app checks it directly for updates.
Note
- Installs on 0.7.0 / 0.7.1 won't see this update automatically -- download it here once, and future updates resume normally.

AeroFetch v0.6.1 Stable
2026-07-03 08:20:55 -04:00 | 21 commits to main since this releaseAeroFetch v0.6.1
Auto-updates now work out of the box
The in-app updater no longer requires you to paste a Gitea token into Settings to
receive updates. This build carries a read-only update token, so update checks and
downloads work with zero configuration. A token set manually in Settings still takes
precedence (for private forks pointing at their own repo).Note: this is the first build that ships the baked token. To reach it from an older
build that has no token configured, either set an update token once in Settings or
install this version manually — from here on, updates are automatic.Everything from v0.6.0 is included (playlist per-item formats, Media Profiles,
retention & quality-upgrade, network throttle controls, and the audit hardening pass).Downloads

AeroFetch v0.6.0 Stable
2026-07-03 05:55:55 -04:00 | 23 commits to main since this releaseAeroFetch v0.6.0
New features
- Playlist: exact format per item — pick a specific format for each playlist entry instead of one blanket choice (#9). Stale per-item formats are dropped automatically on re-probe.
- Media Profiles — named, reusable download presets per Library source.
- Retention & quality-upgrade — per-Library-source rules to prune old items and re-fetch better quality when available.
- Network throttle controls — request-throttle settings to avoid YouTube rate-limiting.
- Per-collection output path — set a download folder per Library source.
Improvements & hardening
- Large audit close-out (Batches 16–28): Settings information architecture, accessibility (semantic headings, High Contrast, touch targets), performance (code-splitting, virtualized History), a zod validate-and-coerce settings layer with key migrations, updater refactor, and store-discipline cleanup.
Notes
- Windows per-user NSIS installer (no admin) and a standalone portable build.
- Each installer ships a
.sha256checksum the in-app updater verifies before installing.

v0.4.1 - In-app Updater Stable
2026-06-25 16:24:15 -04:00 | 161 commits to main since this releaseWhat's new in v0.4.1
New feature
- In-app updater - AeroFetch can now check for new releases directly from the Settings page. When a newer version is available it shows the changelog, lets you download the installer in-app, verifies the SHA-256 checksum against the published .sha256 asset, and launches the installer automatically.
Security hardening
- Per-hop redirect host pinning on the update download - every 302 redirect is re-checked against the trusted Gitea host before following, so a tampered DNS or intermediate response cannot bounce the download to a different server.
- Truncation guard: downloads that end short of the Content-Length are rejected before the installer is run.
- Partial-file cleanup: any failed or aborted download is deleted from temp immediately.
Downloads
- AeroFetch Setup 0.4.1.exe - per-user NSIS installer (no admin), adds a Start-menu shortcut + uninstaller.
- AeroFetch-0.4.1-portable.exe - single self-contained .exe, no install required.
Each installer has a matching .sha256 checksum file. The in-app updater requires and verifies the checksum before running any downloaded installer.

v0.4.0 - Media Thumbnails Stable
2026-06-24 13:01:51 -04:00 | 166 commits to main since this releaseWhat's new in v0.4.0
New features
- Real media thumbnails — the queue, history, and library now show the actual video/playlist thumbnail (probed image or derived from the YouTube video id), falling back to a kind icon on a neutral tint when no image is available.
- Light / Dark / Auto theme switch with a collapsible sidebar that shows the app version.
- Per-kind download folders — video and audio route to
Documents\VideoandDocuments\Audioby default.
Fixes
- Theme resolution is now centralized so "Auto" correctly follows the OS dark/light setting (previously some elements stayed light under Auto + a dark OS).
Security
- Hardened command execution, IPC, deep-link handling, cookie handling, and persistence (audit hardening, #2).
Downloads
- AeroFetch Setup 0.4.0.exe — per-user installer (no admin), adds a Start-menu shortcut + uninstaller.
- AeroFetch-0.4.0-portable.exe — single self-contained .exe, no install required.

- Incremental re-index - diff preserves downloaded state; new-video count badge; --download-archive as a second dedup guard
- Watched sources + RSS fast-check - subscribe a source; YouTube Atom feed checks for new uploads without a full re-scan; auto-enqueues new items
- Scheduled daily sync - Windows Task Scheduler integration (--sync launch flag); unobtrusive background window
- Sidecar files - per-download checkboxes for .info.json, thumbnail image, and .description (Jellyfin/Plex/Kodi-ready)
Unit tests
106 tests pass (up from 76 in v0.1.0) - new coverage for indexerCore.ts pure helpers and folder/sidecar arg generation.
Full install or upgrade: use the Setup installer. Portable: single .exe, no install required.
