ClipForge 0.7.0: caption a whole video, custom fonts, and a caption sizing fix

[JeremySNR]

ClipForge 0.7.0 is out, and it adds a second way to work.

Caption the whole video. Until now ClipForge only did one thing: read a long video and cut the best moments out of it. Sometimes you don't want highlights, you want the video you already have, vertical and captioned. So now you can hand it a 16:9 video and get back one full-length vertical edit you can trim, restyle and export, with optional speaker tracking and auto zoom.

Both modes work on the same project and share the transcript, so switching between them never pays for transcription twice.

Custom caption fonts. Upload any TTF or OTF. Fonts are matched on the family name embedded in the file rather than the filename, so the preview and the export agree.

A caption sizing fix worth explaining. Burned-in captions were rendering at roughly 58% of the size the preview showed. CSS font-size sets the em square, but libass sizes text against the font's OS/2 window ascent plus descent, which is larger than the em on essentially every font. Em sizes were going straight into the ASS Fontsize field. If your exports have ever looked like the captions shrank on the way out, that was why, and it's fixed.

Packaged installs update themselves, so you may already have it.

Two things I'd genuinely like input on, if you use this:

1. Does the virality score match your judgement? It's built on Berger and Milkman's research into what gets shared, plus vocal energy and a vision pass over sampled frames. I want to know whether the clips it ranks highest are the ones you'd have picked yourself.
2. What's missing? The open issues cover what I know about, including running Whisper locally so transcription costs nothing. If the thing blocking you isn't there, please say.
