CatchBan V1.5.0 is a critical update focused on video quality and protocol stability.

We have rewritten the core engine to support True 4K downloads and fixed the m3u8 protocol issues.

✨ New in V1.5.0 (The Source Quality Update) :

Major architecture upgrades to ensure better compatibility.

🎥 True 4K Unlocked (真·4K 解锁)

• Source Quality: Supports downloading original 2160p (4K) video streams without downgrading to 1080p.
• Strictly Original: What you see on the web is what you get in the file.

🌍 Universal Support (全能解析覆盖: 1000+ 站点)

• Massive Expansion: Now powered by the latest engine to support 1000+ video/audio websites.
• Platform Ready: Perfect support for YouTube, Bilibili, Vimeo, Twitter/X, Instagram, TikTok, and more.

🍪 Chameleon Engine Upgrade (变色龙引擎升级)

• Smart Cookie Handling: Automatically detects and injects cookies for Member-Only or Age-Restricted videos.
• Login Optimization: Significantly reduces "Sign in to confirm" errors on YouTube/Bilibili.

🛡 DASH Protocol Optimization (DASH流协议优化)

• Fixed 403 Forbidden: Rewrote the stream handler to fix issues with m3u8 segments causing download failures.
• Smart Format Selection: Prioritizes the best compatible codecs (H.264/VP9) to prevent download loops.

🆔 Identity Reset (一键身份重置)

• Self-Fix Tool: Added an [ID Card Icon] on the top-left toolbar.
