 **Supported formats:**
 
 - SRT/VTT: Regex-based parsing of timing lines + text content between timing blocks.
-- ASS: Parse `[Events]` section, extract `Dialogue:` lines, read the field order from the `Format:` row, and take everything after the Text field index as the text (Text can itself contain commas).
+- ASS: Parse the `[Events]` section, read the field order from the `Format:` row, and extract timed `Dialogue:` lines. Timed `Comment:` lines are normally ignored, but can supply canonical authored text when they match a nearby generated animation from the same style and actor. Text can itself contain commas.
 
 **ASS decoding.** The parser is where ASS text is decoded, once, via `assToPlainText()` in `src/core/services/ass-text.ts`. That decoder mirrors mpv's `ass_to_plaintext` so a cue read from a file reads identically to the same line arriving live on `sub-text`: `{...}` override blocks are markup, `\pN … \p0` vector drawing runs are dropped rather than shown as text, `\N`/`\n`/`\h` are the only escapes (`\{`, `\}` and `\\` are not), and an unclosed `{` is rendered verbatim. Every layer downstream — renderer, timing tracker, tokenizer, tokenization cache keys — receives plain text and uses `normalizePlainSubtitleText()` for whitespace only, so nothing decodes the same string twice and one authored line always maps to one cache key.
 
 **Duplicate collapsing.** Typeset scripts emit one `Dialogue:` event per animation frame, plus layered copies of the same line. The parser collapses identical text over an identical span unconditionally, and collapses contiguous same-text runs of at least three events when the run looks like an animation. For ASS that means shared style and actor plus authoring evidence: a temporal tag (`\t`, `\move`, `\k`/`\kf`/`\ko`/`\K`, or anything wrapped in `\t(...)`), an animated `Effect` column (`Karaoke`, `Banner`, `Scroll`), or override values that change across the run. Static tags shared by every event (`\pos`, an identical `\clip`) are not evidence. SRT/VTT carry no such metadata, so there collapsing needs at least five contiguous events all under 0.1s — the frame timing left behind by ASS-to-SRT conversion. The parser keeps this authoring metadata (style, actor, layer, `Effect`, parsed override commands, source order) private; `parseSubtitleCues()` returns only `SubtitleCue`.
 
+ASS scripts can also redraw one complete lyric for two or more long color/highlight phases. Those flush-timed phases collapse separately from short animation frames when they share text, style, actor, and layer and carry direct animation evidence, such as temporal tags or changing non-spatial overrides. Spatial command changes do not prove a phase, so separately positioned signs remain distinct.
+
+**Canonical animation recovery.** Some ASS producers keep the readable lyric or sign as a timed `Comment:` and generate hundreds of `Dialogue:` frames containing repeated glyphs or changing clip regions. Others retain the complete line as brief `Dialogue:` events around the generated fragments. A complete event is promoted only when nearby dialogue from the same style and actor forms a proven animation cluster and reconstructs its entire text in source order. The generated frames are then replaced by one cue marked `source: 'canonical-ass'`. This source marker lets the live primary-subtitle path prefer the clean authored text and timing for display, sidebar history, immersion recording, and mining, while unmatched editor notes and alternative translations remain ignored.
+
 #### Prefetch Service Lifecycle
 
 1. **Activation trigger:** When a subtitle track is activated (or changes), check if it's external via MPV's `track-list` property. If `external === true`, read the file via `external-filename` using the existing `loadSubtitleSourceText` infrastructure.

 ## Live Cue Delivery
 
+- Primary live text first resolves recovered canonical ASS animations. Otherwise, when
+  every live mpv line matches an active parsed cue, it uses the parsed cue text so exact
+  full-span style layers appear once instead of repeating for fill, border, blur, shadow,
+  or equivalent whitespace variants. Any unmatched live line keeps the complete live
+  stack, preserving dialogue or signs that overlap a lyric.
 - A tokenization cache miss emits the plain cue synchronously. Tokenization remains serialized so
   live work does not contend for Yomitan state.
+- The initial `time-pos`, explicit renderer seeks, and later seek-like jumps reprocess mpv's
+  current raw `sub-text` after the new playback time is stored. Explicit intent matters because
+  adjacent subtitle jumps can be shorter than the general seek-distance threshold. This corrects
+  ASS cleanup when mpv delivered the destination subtitle before the destination timestamp.
+- Renderer `sub-seek` commands use the active parsed cue list when available. Simultaneous cues
+  share one boundary, overlapping lyrics advance from the latest active boundary, and mpv's native
+  command remains the fallback when no parsed destination exists. This prevents generated karaoke
+  frames from consuming next/previous subtitle presses.
+- If startup paints raw text before embedded ASS parsing finishes, parsed cue arrival may replace
+  that provisional line. The one-prime-per-media guard still suppresses identical repeats.
 - If a newer cue arrives while an older line is still tokenizing, the newer plain cue or empty
   clear payload is emitted immediately. The older tokenization result is dropped before it can
   replace the current cue.
 - The current cue upgrades in place when its tokens and annotations are ready. This can reflow text
   or character images, but cue visibility does not wait for that work.
 
+## Secondary Subtitle Flow
+
+- `secondary-sub-text` remains the immediate fallback, so unreadable and remote subtitle sources
+  still appear without waiting for file resolution.
+- `secondary-subtitle-track.ts` resolves `secondary-sid` against mpv's track list. External tracks
+  are read directly; supported embedded text tracks are extracted through the same ffmpeg-backed
+  source resolver used by primary subtitle prefetching.
+- The selected source is parsed with `parseSubtitleCues()`, including metadata-aware ASS duplicate
+  and animation collapse. Playback `time-pos` selects the active parsed cue after applying
+  `secondary-sub-delay`.
+- The resolved text is stored in `mpvClient.currentSecondarySubText` before it is broadcast. The
+  overlay, mining, timing tracker, and immersion statistics therefore consume the same secondary
+  text when a readable source is available.
+- Simultaneous parsed cues use whitespace-insensitive identity, so ASS layers that vary only
+  between ordinary, hard, or ideographic spaces appear once.
+- Simultaneous ASS lines are flattened in top-to-bottom positioned order, falling back to their
+  authored source order when no usable position exists.
+- Fragment-only ASS karaoke is reconstructed per style before publication. Explicit spaces

 ## Highlights
 ### Added
-- **Library Merge and Move**
-  - Duplicate library cards for the same show can now be combined: select cards in the library grid, choose "Merge Selected," and pick which entry to keep. Sessions, mined cards, and watch time move over, and future episodes stay matched to the merged card.
-  - Episodes can be reassigned to a different library entry with a "→" button on the episode row, fixing cases where a file lands under the wrong title. Manual assignments survive later filename parsing, Jellyfin refreshes, and season repair.
-  - Exact AniList matches with compatible seasons now merge automatically, while fuzzy matches show up as a dismissible "Possible duplicate" prompt instead of merging without confirmation.
+
+- Library Merge & Reassignment
+  - Duplicate library entries for the same show can now be merged: pick entries in "Select" mode and use "Merge Selected" to combine sessions, mined cards, and watch time onto one card.
+  - Episodes can be moved to a different library entry with a per-episode "→" button, fixing cases where a stray filename split off its own entry; manual assignments now survive later filename parsing, Jellyfin refreshes, and season repair.
+  - Exact AniList matches with compatible seasons now merge automatically, and likely (fuzzy) matches surface as a dismissible "Possible duplicate" suggestion instead of merging silently.
+
+- Duplicate Line Cleanup
+  - The Vocabulary tab's new **Duplicates** button scans a chosen time window for the repeated-line bursts described under Fixed below and collapses each burst to a single line once you confirm it; a matching `subminer stats cleanup --duplicate-lines` command (with `--dry-run` and `--lookback-days <n>`) is available from the terminal.
+  - Only the affected subtitle lines and the vocabulary counts they inflated are touched; watch time and lines-seen totals are left as recorded.
 
 ### Fixed
-- **Anki Audio Generation on Network Drives**
-  - Fixed sentence-audio generation timing out on slow network-mounted video files with many subtitle and font-attachment streams.
-  - Extraction now uses bounded probing and a two-minute budget, and failures show a clear error instead of a cryptic one.
-- **Duplicate Subtitle Line Stats**
-  - Fixed karaoke openings and animated signs (which record one subtitle event per animation frame) inflating word and kanji counts and skewing "Top Repeated Words." Ordinary repeated dialogue and rewatches are unaffected.
-  - Already-inflated stats can be cleaned up with the new "Duplicates" button in the Vocabulary tab, or `subminer stats cleanup --duplicate-lines` (supports `--dry-run` and `--lookback-days`). Only the affected subtitle lines and vocabulary counts are touched; watch time and lines-seen totals are untouched.
-- **Overlay Modals on macOS and Windows**
-  - Fixed overlay modals and the stats window opening on the wrong macOS Space, or forcing a Space switch, when mpv is fullscreen. They now open above fullscreen mpv on its current Space.
-  - Modals are now prewarmed on macOS and Windows so shortcuts open them promptly, and Windows keeps the hidden modal responsive between sessions.
-- **Wayland File Drag-and-Drop**
-  - Fixed dragging subtitle and video files from file managers like Thunar onto the overlay on native Wayland; dropped files are now resolved and sent to mpv.
-- **Windows Mouse Lag**
-  - Fixed system-wide mouse lag while SubMiner is running on Windows, caused by a global mouse hook and blocking window lookups during click-through tracking.
-- **Mining Clip Accuracy**
-  - Fixed mined audio and animated image clips sometimes capturing the wrong subtitle line when audio extraction was slow. The clip range is now locked in at the moment of lookup, so audio and image clips always match.
-- **Linux Notifications**
-  - Character dictionary progress notifications on Linux now update in place instead of flickering off and back on with every status change.
-- **Stats Delete Performance**
-  - Fixed stats deletes freezing the dashboard; deletes now reliably run off the main thread, with automatic retry if the delete worker crashes.
-  - Deletes, library merges/moves, and AniList reassignments are now much faster because totals are updated incrementally instead of rebuilt from scratch, and no longer erase lifetime totals older than the recent session history.
-  - Session deletes on large libraries dropped from minutes to milliseconds.
 
-### Docs
-- **Feature Demos Page**
-  - Hidden the unfinished feature demos page from the documentation sidebar; it's still reachable by direct URL.
+- Subtitle Duplication from Karaoke & Animated Signs
+  - Typeset ASS karaoke and animated signs no longer flood the overlay, subtitle sidebar, immersion history, mined cards, or stats with repeated glyph fragments or per-frame duplicates; the complete authored line is recovered instead, without merging genuinely repeated dialogue or separately positioned signs.
+  - The secondary overlay now shares the same deduplication logic as the primary overlay, so layered animation text no longer appears multiple times there or in what gets mined.
+  - Vocabulary stats no longer count every animation frame of a karaoke opening as a separate line, which previously could push an OP lyric to the top of "Top Repeated Words."
+
+- Anki Media Generation
+  - Sentence-audio generation no longer times out on slow network-mounted video files with many subtitle and font streams, and a failed extraction now reports a clear error instead of a raw `ENOENT`.
+  - Mined audio and animated AVIF clips now capture the subtitle line you actually mined, instead of whatever line happened to be on screen once slow audio extraction finished.
+
+- Character Dictionary Performance & Notifications
+  - Character dictionary generation, merged rebuilds, and imports no longer freeze the app on large dictionaries, and cached results are reused across launches instead of regenerating character data and portraits every time.
+  - Desktop progress notifications, including on Linux AppImage installs, now update in place instead of flickering closed and reopening.
+
+- Overlay Reliability
+  - Overlay modals (settings, stats, etc.) now open promptly on the first shortcut press and appear above fullscreen mpv on macOS instead of switching Spaces or opening off-screen.
+  - The overlay no longer gets stuck on "Overlay loading" indefinitely if mpv's connection stalls; it now retries and shows an actionable error after 30 seconds.
+  - Fixed native Wayland drag-and-drop from file managers like Thunar, so subtitle and video files dropped on the overlay reach mpv.
+  - Fixed system-wide mouse lag on Windows caused by the overlay's click-through handling and repeated mpv window lookups.
+
+- Stats Dashboard
+  - Deletes, library merges, video moves, and AniList reassignments no longer freeze the stats dashboard or rebuild lifetime totals from scratch; large deletes that used to take minutes now finish in milliseconds.
+  - Vocabulary totals and charts now count all tracked vocabulary instead of just the first page, new-word history uses corrected daily rollups, calendar labels respect time zones west of UTC, and vocabulary cards refresh automatically after editing the word exclusion list.
+
+- Linux Launcher Thumbnails
+  - Fixed missing MKV thumbnails in the Linux rofi picker when the system thumbnailer only registers legacy Matroska MIME aliases.
