 ## Highlights
 ### Added
-- **Watch History Browser**
-  - New `subminer -H` / `--history` command lets you browse your local watch history, replay the last episode, jump to the next one, or pick an episode via fzf or rofi.
-  - The rofi picker now shows AniList cover art for each show, making it easier to spot the right title at a glance.
-- **Card Audio Normalization**
-  - Audio extracted for Anki cards is now volume-normalized by default, giving more consistent playback loudness across cards.
-  - Prefer the original source volume? Disable it via the new `ankiConnect.media.normalizeAudio` setting.
+
+- **Sync Stats & History**
+  - Keep mining stats and watch history in sync across machines over SSH, from a new **Sync Stats & History** window (tray menu) or the `subminer sync <host>` command.
+  - Syncing merges data safely, so nothing is duplicated even if you sync the same machines repeatedly, and hosts with auto-sync enabled sync in the background on a schedule, reporting results as overlay notifications.
+  - Manual database snapshots (create, merge, reveal, delete) cover one-off transfers, and Windows machines running the built-in OpenSSH Server can be used as sync remotes too. No setup beyond SSH access is required on the remote side.
+
+- **TsukiHime Subtitle Downloads**
+  - Download Japanese and secondary-language subtitles for the current video directly from TsukiHime, mirroring the existing Jimaku flow: `Ctrl+Shift+T` opens an in-overlay search modal with separate tabs for the primary and secondary languages.
+  - Matching releases are found automatically from the video filename; the chosen subtitle downloads and loads straight into mpv, no API key required.
 
 ### Changed
-- **New App Icon**
-  - SubMiner now ships pixel-art submarine artwork contributed by an anonymous community member.
-  - Applied across the app icon, tray icon, notifications, README, docs site, and stats page.
-- **Launcher Preview Layout**
-  - fzf previews in the launcher now sit below the menu instead of beside it, giving long titles and metadata more horizontal room.
+
+- **Clipboard-Video Shortcut**: The "append clipboard video to queue" shortcut is now configurable (`shortcuts.appendClipboardVideoToQueue`) instead of fixed.
 
 ### Fixed
-- **Character Name Highlighting in Subtitles**
-  - Fixed unspaced Japanese names (e.g. 東紫乃, 渡辺真奈美) being split at the wrong point, which left surnames like 東 and 渡辺 without their character portrait or hover lookup.
-  - Fixed names getting cut off or losing their highlight when caught by the subtitle scanner's punctuation handling, misclassified by grammar tagging, or swallowed entirely by a longer generic dictionary match (e.g. ヨータ disappearing inside a false とヨー match).
-  - Fixed a single unrecognized word in a subtitle line (like a stray interjection) causing character-name highlighting to drop for the whole line instead of just that word.
-  - No action needed — existing data upgrades automatically the next time a matching name is seen.
-- **Known-Word Highlighting**
-  - Words are no longer marked "known" (green) just because they share spelling with a known Anki card that actually teaches a different reading (e.g. 床 read as とこ no longer falsely matches a known 床/ゆか card).
-  - Kanji words are also no longer marked known just because a different mined word happens to share their reading (e.g. 渓谷/けいこく no longer falsely matches a known 警告/けいこく card).
-  - Single-kana grammar tokens (particles like よ, え) no longer borrow an unrelated card's reading and get falsely painted as known.
-  - Stats sessions now correctly reflect known-word counts again after the reading-aware matching upgrade, instead of showing 0 everywhere.
-- **Annotation Highlighting Refinements**
-  - Restored frequency/JLPT highlighting and vocabulary-stat counting for words like 確かに and やはり, which were wrongly treated as grammar noise.
-  - Kanji nouns that MeCab tags as "non-independent" (e.g. 日, 点, 以外) also keep their highlighting and stats counting again.
-  - Suffix-only tokens (e.g. さん, れる) are now excluded from JLPT/frequency highlighting by default to match how particles and interjections are treated; known-word highlighting for them still works, and this is configurable.
-- **Unparsed Subtitle Text**
-  - Subtitle text the dictionary can't recognize (like a truncated verb form) is now still hoverable for lookup and correctly counted toward a sentence's difficulty, instead of showing as dead, non-interactive text.
-- **Kiku Manual Field Grouping**
-  - Fixed the field-grouping dialog getting stuck invisible behind fullscreen video on Hyprland/Wayland, and failing silently on repeated attempts after the first use.
-  - Fixed a timed-out or failed grouping request leaving an invisible, stuck dialog covering the video; it now closes automatically so the overlay recovers.
-  - Fixed a duplicate "Field grouping cancelled" notification appearing when grouping was cancelled via the trigger shortcut, and added a proper error message for the previously-silent case where the original card can no longer be loaded.
-- **Secondary Subtitles**
-  - Karaoke-style secondary subtitles (common in opening/ending songs) no longer spam dozens of lines down the screen; repeated lines are now collapsed and the subtitle area is capped to a strip at the top.
-- **YouTube Extraction**
-  - Fixed direct YouTube stream extraction occasionally corrupting the stream URL and causing failed audio/video capture.
-- **Background Stats Server**
-  - Launching SubMiner in the background now correctly auto-starts the stats server when enabled, and won't start a duplicate if one's already running.
-- **Stats Trend Charts**
-  - All trend chart titles now show by default, with the ability to hide specific titles (remembered across sessions) and cap how many top titles a chart displays.
-- **Stats Cover Art**
-  - Cover art now loads as soon as a series starts playing instead of waiting for your first visit to its detail page, so the stats timeline shows artwork right away.
-  - Existing series missing art are backfilled automatically the next time you open the stats page.
+
+- **Word Highlighting Accuracy**: Fixed several cases of incorrect word highlighting and annotations, including inconsistent part-of-speech exclusions on merged quote-particle tokens, missing annotations for rare kanji, katakana punctuation wrongly treated as non-kana noise, and certain kanji vocabulary being skipped for next-level ("N+1") highlighting.
+- **Startup Playback Pausing Too Early**: Fixed playback resuming before subtitle processing had finished warming up, which could briefly show untranslated subtitles right after opening a video, most noticeable when resuming mid-episode.
+- **Linux AppImage Crash Notification on Quit**: Fixed a spurious "Service Crash" desktop notification appearing after closing a video when running the Linux AppImage.
