+- Subtitle lines recorded before halfwidth katakana widening now show fullwidth katakana in the stats dashboard (word/kanji occurrences, sentence search), and cards mined from stats history get the fullwidth sentence and word.
+- Sentence search matches katakana in either width, so searching アンタ also finds older lines stored as ｱﾝﾀ.

+- Halfwidth katakana in subtitles (common in broadcast-derived Japanese subs, e.g. ｱﾝﾀ, ﾀﾞｷﾆ) now displays as normal fullwidth katakana, so lines no longer mix squashed and normal-width text. Mined sentences and stats get the fullwidth form too.

 SubMiner selects a Japanese subtitle track automatically and resets mpv's subtitle delay to zero. It direct-plays files when it can and asks Jellyfin to transcode the rest.

 On Windows, casting finds mpv through `mpv.executablePath`, then `SUBMINER_MPV_PATH`, then `PATH`. An invalid `mpv.executablePath` stops mpv from starting.

Optional dialogue mode retains both Silero-detected speech and other audible sections, omits confidently silent gaps, decodes passages independently, and restores original media timing. `src/main/runtime/subtitle-generation-runtime.ts` owns the overlay job lifecycle and only loads completed subtitles into the same media. For Jellyfin playback it reads the item's original-file stream (`toJellyfinOriginalStreamUrl`) into one reused output folder, where each run best-effort deletes earlier files and writes a uniquely named SRT; transcoded playback uses Jellyfin's audio index and only external references, since mpv's track indexes describe the transcode. Subprocess errors redact URL tokens; `src/shared/subtitle-generation*.ts` owns configuration, the multilingual model catalog, and IPC contracts. The overlay runtime retains a session model selection, validates picker requests through IPC, and keeps external model paths authoritative.
 - Subtitle model recommendations use bounded `nvidia-smi` and Whisper CUDA discovery probes in `subtitle-generation-acceleration.ts`. The overlay runtime caches results by executable path for 30 seconds and exposes acceleration status through the existing status IPC. Recommendations do not alter model selection or transcription arguments.
 - `subtitle-generation-reference.ts` ranks mpv's loaded text subtitle tracks, excludes signs/songs and forced references, and extracts timing hints with FFmpeg. The overlay and launcher snapshot references only for matching media, including active subtitle delays. Hints guide long-passage cuts with or without VAD; they never limit audio coverage or replace Whisper timestamps.
 - `src/main/runtime/subtitle-selection.ts` reads and validates mpv subtitle tracks and applies primary/secondary selections. Its opt-in session shortcut opens the shared overlay modal window, with renderer focus and subtitle suppression handled by the modal registry.
