 ## v0.14.0 (2026-05-12)
 
+SubMiner no longer requires a globally-installed mpv plugin. The bundled plugin is injected at runtime only when SubMiner launches mpv — through the `subminer` launcher, the app's managed launch, or the packaged Windows SubMiner mpv shortcut. When you open mpv on its own, SubMiner is not involved and the plugin is never loaded. If you have a legacy global SubMiner plugin under mpv's `scripts` directory, first-run setup detects it and prompts you to remove it before playback starts.
+
 **Added**
 
 - **Character Dictionary:** Added AniList-based character dictionary selection for resolving title mismatches — open it in-app with the new `Ctrl+Alt+A` shortcut or from the CLI with `subminer dictionary --candidates` / `--select`. Series-scoped overrides replace stale entries in the merged dictionary.

 ### Windows-Specific Notes
 
-- The `subminer` launcher script requires [Bun](https://bun.sh) and must be invoked with `bun run subminer` on Windows since the shebang is not supported. The **SubMiner mpv** shortcut or `SubMiner.exe --launch-mpv` is the simpler alternative.

 - First-run plugin installs pin `binary_path` to the current `SubMiner.exe` automatically. Manual plugin configs can leave `binary_path` empty unless SubMiner is in a non-standard location.
 - Plugin installs rewrite `socket_path` to `\\.\pipe\subminer-socket` — do not keep `/tmp/subminer-socket` on Windows.
 - Config is stored at `%APPDATA%\SubMiner\config.jsonc`.

 The `subminer` launcher is an all-in-one script that handles video selection, mpv startup, and overlay management. It is the recommended way to use SubMiner on Linux and macOS because it guarantees mpv is launched with the correct IPC socket and SubMiner defaults. It's a Bun script distributed as a release asset alongside the AppImage and DMG.

-On Windows the `subminer` script cannot run directly via shebang — use `bun run subminer` instead (e.g. `bun run subminer video.mkv`). The recommended alternative is the **SubMiner mpv** shortcut created during first-run setup, or `SubMiner.exe --launch-mpv`. See [Windows mpv Shortcut](/usage#windows-mpv-shortcut) for details.
