  2. Version 0.1.17

    The first public BridgeClip release. Turn podcasts, streams and YouTube links into captioned short-form clips on your own computer, using your own OpenRouter key.

    • Mac: Apple silicon and Intel disk images, signed and notarized by Apple. Requires macOS 13 or later.

    New

    • Twitch VODs: paste a public, completed Twitch video link, just like a YouTube link.
    • Clipping modes: choose Quality, Economy or Advanced in Create → Clips. Economy uses lower-cost models; Advanced lets you pick your own OpenRouter transcription and planning models.
    • Video speed: speed up every clip in a job to 1.1×, 1.25×, 1.5×, 1.75× or 2× in Create → Format. Voices keep their pitch and captions stay in sync.
    • TikTok automations: review each clip's caption and settings before an automation posts it to TikTok.
    • Posts: a dedicated page for your posting history.
    • Background updates: BridgeClip checks for new versions on its own, downloads them in the background and installs them when you choose Restart to update. Settings → About shows the update status.
    • Smarter caption placement around faces in the frame.
